Why would Rodriguez come to Town when he has a contract offer at Burnley?….. Contract length, assurances over playing time, change of scenery, new challenge, mates with Duff, etc |

Contract length, assurances over playing time, change of scenery, new challenge, mates with Duff, etc Most likely be the first two that determine it.playing time at Burnley surely limited and then to find another club at that point if wants to carry on.same could be said of the stoke link. Might think two years and that’s him done so why not go get games. |

Player/coach perhaps?

Rodriguez would be a great addition for the short term. No doubt he could do a job, if used right, in L1. And, as others have said, would be great to have around the place. We have to be pragmatic, Some signings have to be long term, of course - most of them - but if two or three players come in and do a job for one season, and that job is promotion, well worth it.

Liam Cooper , seems to be leaving Leeds. Could he be worth a years deal ?

I wouldn't want him, he was woeful for us when we had him on loan.. granted, it's been a while but like Phillips for that lot, he was found out the moment Bielsa left. I've jibed my L**ds mates for a while and meant it when I said I'd take Tom Lees over him anyday. |

Not sure if I've missed it but has Duff brought any staff in yet? |

His stats aren't great, we have no real idea how good Bojan could be and Healey's goals per game isn't that bad at all and saying he wasn't fit aswell. |

He offers alot more than Bojan and Healey because he can play as an attacking midfielder aswell as striker. We've been missing creativity down the middle probably since LOB left. |

We've been missing creativity down the middle probably since LOB left. yes but , also you have to take into conisderation the system Duff plays and how he plays it. Saying he can play attacking mid is fine, but judging by Duff's barnsley team , then he just doesn't fit. Also judging that he has hardly played this season, also didn't get a loan move in Jan , put that together with a average loan move to Sunderland. I really do think their is better bang for our buck in both cf and an attacking mid option. Example of a better ball carrying mid ala LOB, is callum styles for example and cf's wise , with Duff liking a 2 up front. Then Alife May at charlton or move for Dion charles at Bolton would be a better fit. If we wanted a bigger target man cf, who probs wouldn't cost the earth - cosgrove at barnsley maybe? |

Bad decision Wingman. Bowing to the masses... I’m not sure it’s a bad decision saintlyterrier. As we are often told (!) it’s not our (the Admins) forum and folk have asked for a while to change things. The silent majority may like things as they are but they don’t say? As I said earlier let’s see how this goes for the window; if folk struggle or there isn’t a continued desire for it to be sat pinned for January’s window, we will revert it back to stay on a sub-board. Happy to hear thoughts through the Summer. 👍🏼 |

I've seen Rotherham have signed 4 already, but if they're shit it doesn't make any difference. I'd also question our due diligence if we were bringing players in so quickly. Last thing we need is another big injury list or a set of unprofessional players. |

I'm not been funny but have we signed anybody yet? Club needs to get their finger out! Perhaps Duff needs time with Cartwright to decide what he needs. He has only just landed in the job and doesn’t have access to the players yet. I’m sure some decisions have been made and some players, or their agents, have said what their intentions are, but he can’t get players in without some time to see what he has got and who he is likely to keep. |

Bad decision Wingman. Bowing to the masses... As a matter of interest what offends you so much about it being on the main board in its relevant category and where its really easy to see and access?! I must be missing something I'm sure but I just don't get the reasoning behind everything being separated! It's like the daft long threads that get regurgitated. Like people want it to be like a reference library rather than a forum. It was better how it used to be a long while back and before people started fannying about with it IMHO  Having this thread here is a small step in the right direction, not sure why it needs to be pinned though tbh. Let it flow! |
