Don't like seeing any clubs in this kinda mess (apart from Leeds), but Boltons loss is someones gain. Who would you like us to realistically take from Bolton if the opportunity arose? No Conor Wilkinson shouts please.
This. Also wasn't there chairman one of the main instigator's in trying to get promotion/relegation to and from the premier league scrapped when they just happened to be in it ? Wonder what is thoughts are on that now.
The thing that has them in the ***** is the wages they are paying. Other than youth players we could not afford the wages of any of their first team squad.
Mark Davies, but he could do a lot better; Craig Davies, if he has not already gone; Darren Pratley, who could also do a lot better than us. Pratley, however, is the kind of combative, holding midfielder we need to replace Pearson. If we cannot get him, and I would think he is good enough to stay in the championship, we need to scout for someone like him. I think the holding midfield position is the most crucial of all for the rest of the season. Get in the right player and we will end up mid-table at worst. Don't fill the gap well and we could remain in relegation trouble until the very end.
I note that Craig Davies is permanently at Wigan and not on loan, so that's a non-starter. Would have been good, though.
