I would also happily sell Kongolo for a decent ish fee if the money was to get reinvested in the team. Question is, would it be.

Huddersfield Town's name has been mentioned as one of several potential suitors for Celtic winger Jonny Hayes. The 32-year-old Republic of Ireland international has been at Celtic Park since 2017 and is out of contract in the summer, with Burnley, Stoke City and Cardiff City also mentioned as potential suitors in a report by TeamTalk. Has never kicked on at Celtic. Had a few good years at Aberdeen which seems to be his career peak. Probably his agent trying to create a market for a new contract. He's spent a minimum of 50% of his (albeit limited) minutes playing at LB over the past few seasons. If there is indeed interest, that could be why. Don't write him off totally just yet; 90 mins away at Lazio, goal away at Rangers this season.

Always looked to have a good engine and liked a challenge, add in good runner with the ball, good crosser and scored some goals, albeit in Jockland, he might be a strong addition. It's an interesting rumour anyway..

Jamie Reid of Torquay Utd could do a fantastic job for the club, and could come at a decent price from a cash strapped club.
This player is top bollocks with the Torquay fans down here ,and a move would surely piss them and my Torquay Utd supporting boss off especially when pushing for promotion
I see this players match highlights every week on our local west country tv channells , and got a feeling we need to get in quick .
Talk in our local paper that Luton and alot of other clubs are also showing interest

We need to get shut though and bring in players whose hearts are in it, sooner the better before he depreciates further. He's gone from magic to tragic if reports from Preston are to be believed, its a shame but not that surprising all things considered.

Sky sports news; HUDDS TRACK NON-LEAGUE FORWARD Huddersfield have been linked with a move for Torquay forward Jamie Reid, following the striker's 15-goal haul in the National League so far this season. Reid, who netted 29 goals in the National League South last season, has reportedly alerted the attention of Hudds boss Danny Cowley, who made his own way up through non-league as a manager. Koroma and Brown were decent in divisions above the conference south. They cant get near the starting 11 of a poor side.I dont think theres going to be as many ins and outs in January as people are expecting. Not the ones we want anyway. Bringing a new manager in doesn't make our Budget any bigger. I cant believe the reason Jan wasnt given much backing pre season was because he wasnt trusted. If that was ever the case he should of never still been the manager at the start of the season. For whatever reason I dont think we have much money to throw at it. Why that is, is a different arguement. Err no.

I saw enough of Jamie Reid whilst he was at Exeter to think that he’s got no chance of cutting it in the Championship. He never got a consistent run at Exeter. He must be in his mid 20’s now as well. He’s playing at the right level. Sorry.

Big Phil explains in the chance podcast about how it’s always a year behind getting money on transfers like billing and maybe longer ! No he doesn't. It's not that simple and that's largely incorrect. What Nick is trying to say is; [the critical point he missed] for players that are considered 'homegrown' or long servants of the club (Billing and Smith as recent examples), their value as an asset on the balance sheet is zero. Given 95% or more of transfers are made in instalments, the first payment is often just one big tax bill which HMRC duly accepts. You then also have to factor in any sell-on clauses and such with take precedence. As a rule of thumb, clubs only start to take the profit such player sales from payments 2 onwards. BUT this is largely dependent on the agreement with the buyer i.e. the payment schedule (it's not 'always a year behind') and, as I say, any other commitments. With respect to all other transfers, its all dependent on the fee, the payment agreement and clauses. With respect to a potential Kongolo sale, Town may well have profit to spend following the initial down-payment.

At least we have started to grind out some points now.

I don't think we are a poor team, 3 of the most valuable players in the league aren't catching through injury and "issues". We have looked decent at times and worked hard as a rule. After the Cowleys arrived. We are performing as well as any at the moment and i think be Easter we will safe in the top 10.

Yesterday’s game showed the lack of “impact” we have on the bench. I don’t think it’s too far fetched to say we need 6 players for us to have a strong 17. Maybe 2/3 of those are needed for the 1st team. Very idealistic I know
Grabara Simpson. CB. Schindler. Brown Hogg. O’Brien Pritchard RW. Grant. LW
Ideal Subs Schofield. Stank. Campbell. FB. CM. CAM. WING.
More likely subs Schofield. Stank. Campbell. Bacuna. Kachunga. FB. CM.

Reece Brown now behind Matty Daly (who made the bench yesterday)
Brockhorn not even on the bench despite two centre mids playing emergency full backs
Could see both leave in January IMO

A couple of points. 1.To have to pay tax the business would have to showing a profit for the year. Unlikely for Town in the championship. 2. Our incoming transfers are also paid in installments so can, and should, be planned around monies due in from outgoing transfers.

The Brown situation is stranger, as he's mixed it up in our lower leagues and done very well.

The Brown situation is stranger, as he's mixed it up in our lower leagues and done very well. He was way off months ago when playing league 1 opposition. Clearly not good enough....although like mounie and flo his attitude hasn’t been called into question. Think there will be a big clear out in the next 2 windows - there has to be. We can’t continue to carry the mounie’S, mbenza’s etc.

Just shows what a bollocks Hoyle and the new guy made of the “most important transfer window in the club’s history”
Just because we’ve now got a proper manager doesn’t change the fact that this season is a total disaster.

That is classed as revenue. Is it appx £40m this year?
Obviously it is widely assumed that the cash is being used to repay Deano, however 'cash' does not equate to profit or loss.
I would imagine we'll still be recording a relatively healthy profit this year when you factor in the sale of Billing on top.

going by DC's press comments lately, he's putting it out there loud and clear that we need at least 3 players to come in for the full back positions. particularly his comments on the positions of Flo and TK today compared to a few weeks ago, and the mention of starting the season with no senior left back yesterday.

Apart from us obviously needing a LB and a CB in the window, I’m of the belief that we also need another creative player who can do the Kachunga role but at a higher standard, also who provides goals.
There’s a young Australian midfielder who is coming through, turned 21 years old a few weeks ago, by the name of Riley McGree. This lad will be the next Aaron Mooy. I know they are lofty words, he’s been around for a few seasons, playing some good football, but this year he is coming on really well. To put comparisons to Mooy and his breakout season which then saw him join Town - Mooy played 26 scored 11 and assisted 10. By comparison McGree has after 10 played, scored 8 and assisted 2.
McGree can play in all the midfield positions from DM through to AM and central or wide. He’s an absolute special talent that makes the sublime look easy at times. His movement off the ball is fantastic, he finds space and gives passing options. If you like Lewis O’Brien, then you will fall in love with McGree. Get him in and give him game time and we will have the bargain of the January window.

Also what happened to that wonder kid from the last World Cup? Little tricky player, think he was only about 18 or so.

I’m not sure of the work permit thing, he did get signed by Club Bruge as an 18 year old, so maybe. The WC player was Daniel Arzani. Man City having a presence in Australia picked him up and loaned him out to Celtic. Came on as a sub and was impressing before he ruptured his AC ligament. He’s due back in December with Celtic.

They’ll thank you for it and probably follow up on it.
