Very unlikely. Izzy is a good lad, but we've realised just how much higher the required quality is in this league for attacking players. Our #1 priority targets this summer will be supporting attacking players - on the right and the left - to sit eitherside of Pritchard. We had to prioritise our...

It's been a long ol' winding journey for the both of us. That crazy season in L1 feels like yesterday.

Thanks guys. Last night eclipsed the play-off final. Just so ****ing proud of every single one of them.

Aye, I mean we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. I'm more confident though about next season, if we do survive. We've built a really solid side here, what we're lacking is quality and pace going forwards - there was such a delta between where our squad was last season and what we needed...

We're both nearly there guys. In fact, I think we've probably got enough all ready to be safe. Imagine that, all three promoted sides surviving our first season :).

Should be an interesting game. May the best team win.

Absolutely. The #10 position has been open for us all season, especially after Kasey Palmer picked up his injury. To remedy this we've been playing Ince there, out of position. This signing means that we finally have some quality linking up Mooy and the strikers, and Ince can play out on the...

lol

For what it's worth, it's being reported round our way as being in the £10m range. Wagner even said in his press conference that the reports in the media (£14m) are way over the mark.

Really, really pleased with this. The #10 role is one that we never really sorted over summer, which is one of the big reasons for our lack of attacking threat. It also means that Ince (who has been really good for us, but playing out of position), can go out wide and be more effective. While...

We've both done so well this season, but it's about to get much harder in the second half

There isn't any, obviously, he just wants to make himself feel better. I guess getting promoted through the playoffs = fading :)

Centre Back that can play Left Back. Pretty ideal for our needs. Expect lots of action from us this January, the last month has really exposed our areas of weakness - #10, Left Forward Player, Midfield Playmaker

The fans had to fight for it. Initially we were given the little lower tier stand on the opposite side to the away fans, on an opt-in basis (ticket transfer), after a long campaign with the club. Then after that was a (partial) success the club got behind the idea and we eventually got the split...

He's our metronome. That said, he was a bit off the pace in the first half yesterday, came much more into it in the second though. Jonny Hogg was our man of the match yesterday. Does all the hard work so that Mooy has time on the ball and absolutely won the battle vs. Stephens et al. We...

He's not a superstar, and very rarely carried a game for us by himself, but he was so popular with our fans because he was a grafter (stereotypically, we like grafters oop 'ere). As I said though, Izzy is by far the most effective when playing centrally and direct. That was in the championship...

The stand up of you love the town thing started this season, it's not timed or anything, but usually happens about midway through the half to try and get the whole stadium in to it, to carry the team through. Works well.

The defensive comments are particularly surprising as everything we did last year was built on a platform of "defending from the front". There were no passengers.

An opinion from the other side... I thought that Izzy was your one attacking outlet yesterday. There were a couple of times when he got a break on and managed to whip it across. I'm pretty surprised by the general feeling towards him on here, he was one of our most popular players last season...

Went to both our games this weekend (was with the home fans at the Olympic stadium - looked like it was going off in the away end!). We actually both played in a very similar way. Solid set up at the back, let them have the ball in non-dangerous areas, and funnel them into putting in crosses...
