Not good enough mate  Grin

Do you know if we're still in the running for Nugent or anyone else for that matter?

Still want another attacker, midfielder and another CB

Time will tell but I see that as an exciting signing. Norwich has a great academy and he will have had a good grounding at Wolves, happy days

Pleased with this signing, reasonably thought of young lad with some potential.

Time will tell but he is ours if he comes good, KC seems to have a good eye in his transfer dealings so far, happy to trust him on this one.

Ali Gibb, Ryan Jarvis & Ian Henderson are 3 players that come to mind who we signed at some stage and were products of the Norwich youth system.

He was yeah, whether that’s still the case who knows. After a week they’d not made any real progress but not sure if they’ve given up or will revisit it later on.

I like this signing .
I like that it’s not a loan and we have a player that can develop who has shown significant potential at a top 10 Premier club .
If we could get Nugent alongside him , I think we could be in business .

I'm guessing a former player, now out of contract, may be someone worth a punt on.....  He didn't develop last time around, but, maybe he still has potential?

Any reason you're not naming him? I thought you meant Crackers until you said he didn't develop.

Speaking of Crackers, it was rumoured he was looking for a move nearer home. May be totally wrong of course. Wigan are signing players now, but he is still nowhere to be seen. In his prime years and with a couple of L1 promotions on his CV, he'd be great, but almost certainly looking for a higher team and more money that we'd offer. Plus someone that can play out wide is hardly top of the shopping list

I think we will bring in another target man up top, otherwise we are going to be overly reliant on Smith and neither Nuttall or Seal have currently demonstrated that sort of ability to be such a focal point.

As others have said though, I like the fact we have gone for a young player on a permanent who you would hope will develop with us in the structure we have.

A target man, a centre midfielder and another CB and i guess we are done. Still plenty of time in the window and beyond that. At least we have some options up top now.

Interestingly, Chron interview Curle says he doesnt think Benny is playing in a way that beat suits hit attributes, so maybe he wants to use him as a targetman?

As I’ve said before it’s our version of moneyball and I’ve got no problem with it whatsoever. As others have pointed out Tracey and KC have a pretty good record with recruitment so I’m happy to leave them to it - it would be nice to think that at least one of the remaining 3 that he wants to bring in might be a marquee signing but looking at it that wouldn’t fit with the pattern.

I'm feeling reasonably happy with recruitment so far, given that a couple more signings at least are more than likely. I really like the fact that we have signed BAS on a permanent instead of loan contract. Young forwards don't necessarily have to set the world on fire to become worth lots of money, e.g. Toney, so better he's ours than someone else's. We seemed to extend our options on Saturday with a strong performance from everyone on the pitch. I don't expect too much from tonight against the Franchise but I think this week really is a case of focusing on the league.

Wasn't Toney league 1 top scorer though? I'm happy with the guys upfront as we are now, we have the three that started against Cardiff and now nuttal and Benny, think we should look at one more for midfield and one more for the back. Apart from that we look good.

Where do people see Adams and Marshall this season? With the step up in to league and the better opposition, my guess is that Mills and Harriman who probably offer more defensively will be the starters. With the current system there are no wide midfielders or attackers, they could maybe play in the Hoskins role but other than than are they just going to be back ups at full backs?

I think Marshal will be an option off the bench, but I'd be surprised if Adams isn't a regular starter with Harriman coming in to shore things up when Adam's legs start to go. With chances likely to be at more of a premium against better opposition, Adam's phenomenal return when it comes to assists will surely be an essential part of our firepower?

It’s pretty hard fo Nuttall to demonstrate target man ability When he hasn’t played yet. 😂
