This is a major signing as this lad is too good for league two. I was told we wanted a permanent transfer but unfortunately it’s only a loan which is not great news going forwards…. We have also been looking at a couple of other strikers who are older but proven and there may yet be another to come… I’d imagine this would be down to chuks leaving but I have no idea of what’s going on with him. I was told last week that villa are likely to make an improved offer… We shall see…
The lad from Spurs signed a new contract with them (until 2023) before signing on loan for us.

first part of the prediction correct - second part of the prediction to follow which does not see caleb off to Spurs . He may not physically be going very far at all initially after all.
Caleb to be signed by Villa and then loaned back to us??

He’s not off to Blackpool with the rest of last years squad that didn’t go there is he!?

Great loan signing that...in theory. Definitely a contender (by the look of it - under contract at Spurs) to become a big star in the future. Could look back in years to come as an ex-Cobbler to be in the big time.

Like this signing.
Signing out and and wingers
Commanding centre backs
Physical front line
Exactly what you need in this league. Not saying we are going to set the division on fire, but we should cause teams a lot of problems.

I assume Etete is probably down to Calderwoods connections rather than anything else?? Shame he couldn’t get Harry Kane too??

Come on dude. It’s obvious you have NO inside info, but you keep trying to pass yourself off as though you do. Why though?? Even when some element of one of your vague, half baked ‘guesses’ comes through, the only credit you get is posted by you. Nobody cares, nobody is impressed. It’s sad to watch. Give it up mate. Please.

In fairness to Boot and shoe this is a transfer rumours thread and he has supplied rumours and also some correct information. If we stop everyone from giving information, right or wrong, there will be no point having a forum at all. Keep going B&S, ntfclad, even Shoemaker

There has been several calls for a panic or even a block tab which goes very much against your appeal for information accurate or not. What do you think? Are they snow flakes or wannabee Admin prefects?

i think the latest addition will conclude our inbound transfer activity for this window. it looks like we have the best balanced squad in a long time and getting everyone together so early pays dividends . Real credit should go to the recruitment committee . The budget has clearly been restrictive and it would be interesting to know what people would see as success this season . i think anything above 10th is over performing, considering resources available . The problem is , people are expecting top 6 and our spending power is nowhere near that .

End of last season my answer would have been I'd be happy with a couple of seasons to rebuild, get a mix of experience and youth and push for promotion in 2-3 seasons with a squad that we can keep together and build on in League 1 and stop the yo-yo ing, as long as you can see effort, desire and some good football thrown in along the way. Now we're a week before the season, I expect them to go and beat all of Wilder's league 2 records and beat the total score by at least 1 point to finish on 100+ points Realistically, I agree top 10, but a push for top 7. When you look at the table there aren't really any names that stand out (other than maybe Bradford but they've been down here for a while now) so if this squad can gel quickly no reason why top 7 isn't possible. I do think goals will remain a problem and need the midfield to contribute. I also think this management team is the best we've had for a while. Was impressed with Brady at the end of the season, Calderwood's experience, Rico's knowledge of this league and all 3 seem the sort to not get too exited if we are doing well, but not panic if we have a bad run. Same every year but looking forward to this season and cant wait to get back in the stadium, although away for the first few games

After the awful turgid dull football served up under KC last season, I just want to see us play some good attacking football tbh. If we also have a play off / promotion push then great, if not then so be it. Just hope the supporters stick with JB should we go through a sticky patch, as this appointment should be seen as a long term project.

My assessment respective teams budgets would be different, I see a group of around half to two thirds of teams with probably very close budgets with some of the smaller teams at the bottom a bit adrift of that. I think it will all come down to recruitment, which at present I’m still on the fence about, I don’t see a reason if recruitment is good this year why we couldn’t finish in the top 6 but just as easily if it’s poor we could struggle at the bottom half of the table. So for me success is getting in the top 7.
