    Craig Mackail- Smith

    He's not a marquee striker. He's not prolific at championship level. He is probably in higher wages than his goals justify. But, when fit he is guaranteed to get 10 goals or so a season so he is surely worth a new contract, albeit on what wages??

    Tattoos/Piercings and employment

    One of best things about tattoos are that they are so personal and often split a room in half. It would be wholly ignorant to assume someone won't look at tattoos you have and make a judgement on them. I am personally an admirer of most tattoos and have a few myself. I also know that I work in...

    What's your "everyone's available" starting XI?

    Can I sit on the fence and say that I need to see Bennett, Gardner, Baldock and Colunga??

    Striker Adrian Colunga Signs Two Year Deal (Update)

    I think that if this signing goes through we won't be signing any more players. I think we will not be playing with a target man type striker this year. Instead using skilful creative players like Texiera and Corlunga to take advantage of any space created by CMS who will occupy the centre backs...

    Rodolph Austin Bid?

    Didn't this guy get sent off couple seasons back for shoulder charging Barnes?

    The Ulloa £8m

    The key thing to remember is that is isn't £6m profit. It's £6m contribution.

    Danny Holla Signs

    Not exactly well known in England.... Appears to be another player in the mould of Crofts and Stephens.

    Where is Stephen Ward????

    Well that's just not true. Sami seems to use his wide players as inside forwards. Although I half sense that this was because of the players available. Lua lua a right footed left winger. March a left footed right winger. Buckley wanting to leave. Fenelon still with some development needed...

    Where is Stephen Ward????

    With Ward signed we now have a back 5 which should be very capable at this level. Add to that Ince and Toko we should have a solid foundation to build on. Add a winger and couple of strikers and we have a decent team.

    Article: Being Positive

    Our first team was looking pretty old. Kusczack, Calderon , Greer, Upson, Bridge was the starting back four not too long ago. It is unfortunate that in order to raise finance for new players we have to sell our better players. I would rather see the club do this than go Nottingham Forest Style...

    Going backwards in every respect

    I think to single out individuals is harsh. As a general rule we have no replaced players that have left the club with talented players. Too many players where the thought is, they will do. We only need 3 quality signings. With one or 2 as loan players if needs be. But as of now we have not...

    Andrew Crofts

    I would speculate that at a pre-season gathering of referees for the football league it was stressed that tackles where a player has a foot off the ground/studs showing should be an immediate red card. As it was the first game of the season, referees are going to be very keen to enforce the law...

    We've signed someone - Aaron Hughes

    He's alright. Not sure there are many CB's at championship level who really excite anyone. Would have thought Sami would be a good judge of CB anyway willing to trust. Next signing to be a winger ?? Hopefully.

    *** The Offical match thread: Brazil v Chilie ***

    Wouldn't mind Reyes back as a cheap right back. Clearly capable player in a good system. But probably not as we have Calderon and Bruno.

    Stephen Ward - Albion unwilling to match salary

    This is exactly what the government was talking about when they say we need to pay a living wage! How can a man be expected to survive with a family on around £400,000 a year after tax? Very rough estimate mind.
