    Look to be signing Dion Charles to add to Joe Taylor signing last week.

    Two good additions half way through season.

    I'm going to raise a glass of Stowford to Huddersfield. Well done. Wish them well. About time they were a force to be reckoned with.

    T’Udders have to be serious contenders for top 2. On a long unbeaten run as well.

    Most put them to finish second in league, behind Birmingham. No real surprises, other than probably just how much they have spent!

    If true then you have to make Hudds favourites for second spot. Charles and Taylor is a potent pairing at L1 level.
    Time will tell I suppose…..

    Imagine if we were Bolton and sold one of our top players to a.rival in the same league. This board would be in meltdown.

    They’re spending big. I reckon they’ll find themselves in trouble sharpish, if they don’t get promoted.

    He's had one start in his last half a dozen appearances. 8 games without a goal. 3 goals in his last 21 games.

    His form this season has dropped greatly. Something is clearly up because he's nothing like the same player as last season.

    For sure. It goes one way or the other this season for maybe 5 or 6 clubs now, and it seems they're going all in. Not sure I would.

    Let em buy their way to the autos. Let’s face it, with the run they’re on and the 2 recent additions, we don’t want them in the play offs should be get there.

    Wrexham’s luck will run out and Wycombe may falter now their gaffer has gone. Play offs? Could be there for the taking. I stress COULD. Several other clubs might think the same!

    Charles is a very good signing. Always looked dangerous against us. Think they realised not long after signing Ladapo that he’s a flop.

    Looks as though they’re going to move on Ward and Ladapo now to possibly make space. Very good options up top.

    I dont think Charles is much kop. Decent league one level footballer, though he's an improvement on Ladapo who id stay well away from. Charles will score them a few goals but I expect they will get rid as soon as they're promoted unless having massive issues financially.

    Id take Ward on a short term contract. Would allow us to change the system up a bit when needed.

    Pretty sure I’d seen somewhere that Ward is out injured for the season?

    Signing Charles based on last season. 750k I'd a lot of money for an out of form 30 year old. Pressure now will be on MLH to deliver as he's been backed with a few million spent on a couple of much needed strikers.

    If they drop off the fans will soon turn on him. They aren't known for giving managers time that fan base. They are the Yorkshire Watford for going through managers.
