    cheaper than the 6 million we'll lose when we're relegated with inexperienced players or ones from abroad that need time to settle

    Signing Matty James alone would exceed £6 million and that's before you factor in his wages!

    I went to the Chelsea v Leicester game a couple if weeks ago and Matty James played superb . I think we might just miss out on that one .

    Disagree on every count.

    We don't need any, or at least most of those players.

    We won't be relegated

    And that lot, including wages would cost considerably more than relegation.

    I do not want to pee on your bonfire , but you say that these players are ones we should be signing but I am afraid that none of them are for sale, so how do you think a relegation battle with us is going to attract them & please do not say wages as they all will be on a decent screw & also , do you think their clubs would sanctions these proposed transfers

    Aston Villa full-back Ritchie De Laet joins Antwerp on loan, so i'm not sure how that would work...

    Not sure Mcshane would come anymore, I think he captains hes side and probably would prefer staying put.

    Matty James is definately more than 6m or else he'd be brilliant. Not seen many players so calm on ball at Oakwell and playing it so easily around the pitch.

    Federici wages might be high.. not sure but could be a good option otherwise.

    De Laet couldve been a decent signing. Not sure on wages but hes just gone out on loan.

    Watkins I dont think will want to come back unless he gets better wages than he has.. my opinion.

    Dyer. Not really sure about this.

    Dean Marney, big injury. Not sure how he'd recover at that age. Risky and could be on good wages too being in premier league.

    Matt Smith, got Moore

    Rearrange "EHT LNPA" to discover why we wouldn't be going for any of the players in that list.

    No prizes though!

    I don’t think that a 35 year old bit part winger from Burton Albion is the answer to our woes.

    What about James Morrison at wba. Could get him on loan to do a Matty James job.

    Paul McShane - 25k a week
    Ritchie De Laet - 20k a week, on loan in Belgium
    Marley Watkins - 12k a week
    Lloyd Dyer - think burton will sell cheap?
    Dean Marney - On decent money at Burnley but out the first team, had issues with fitness
    Matty James- 30k a week. Recently signed a new contract, first team per now at lesta
    Matt Smith - on decent money at QPR, will cost a fortune to buy.

    Otherwise good choices.

    The position I’d like to see filled is the holding midfielder just in front of the back four. We’re relying on loan players to fill that role and we need two of them.

    Hopefully we will sign Gardner on a permanent , think that position is perfect for him

    McGoldrick from Ipswich is available for £500k apparently. That has to be a decent buy......?
