Al-Hamadi gone to Ipswich.

Another one slips through the net.

Add him onto the list with Thomas-Asante and Twine.
Hmm. Has gone for an initial fee of £1.0M. Various add-ons this season will take it up to £1.75M. Other incentives will take the fee to £3.0M+. And he's probably on about £15-20K/week. Apart from that, spot on.
 
God, you do watch a lot of games and football throughout the pyramid. The club should know who to turn to by now.

I do go and watch a lot of other games it’s true, and yes the club should know who to go to, but it doesn’t look as if they do. Time is running out, and fast.

Conteh looked alright on Saturday? ✅ That’s the sort of player we should have gone for. It’s probably turning in to the most important piece of the jigsaw, but it’s getting bypassed by those that know 😂
 
If he came, and scored 20-25 in a season and fired us to the next level. I couldn’t care how old he is, he’d of done his job, then we poach the next up and coming talent.
What makes you think he’d score that many
 
There’s a reason Charlton wanted Goodwin over Ladapo or JCH.

No guarantee either score more, I’d probably bet on Ladapo or JCH to get closer to 20, Goodwin 15 say. One of those has potential to be worth seven figures, the other two are the wrong side of 30 with no resale value.

That’s a huge swing on a big investment for about 5 goals when you’re 7th.

I can’t contain my jealousy. Since the time McKenna walked in there they are everything I’d love my football club to be. I appreciate they have fantastic backing and a good fan base but clubs of all levels can do it on their own relative terms with the right people in the right positions and a total alignment from top to bottom. I’m sure there are problems there but my envy is out of control.

Their striker frustration (fans royally concerned by the lack of bodies) lasted just a fortnight before serving up one of the most wanted young players in the EFL. That’s a club that thinks far bigger than any one player (Hirst will be fit again in the summer, expecting to play) and smells blood - they can do it this season by showing that bit of aggression now rather than sit around moping about their misfortune with injuries and complaining about a difficult market.

Frustrates the life out of me how difficult we make things look from a position of great need. I agree that I don’t want us to attach ourselves to poor players on long contracts again but I don’t see any reason why you can’t do good business efficiently with proper planning, particularly a club of our standing in this division. It’s just tedious excuses.
