    I don't seem to remember Mawson being Injured....

    Wonderful business by Jenkins in respect of central defenders so far.First give Kyle Bartley a contract extension and loan him out.Then buyVan de Hoorn for £2m who looked completely out of his depth against Peterborough.Sell our captain and best player for £12m.Spend a huge £5m on a player who has been injury prone and has played for Maidenhead,Luton,Welling,Wycombe, and Barnsley.Exactly the sort of experience needed for the Premiership.

    I can't believe people still use that logic after Vardy, Gayle, Lambert & Austin.

    I was going to say that if they can get £12 million for a 32 year old centre half its not unreasonable that we should get at least half of that for our player

    Just had a flick through their forum. Flipping eck - I thought this place was bad at times but if I had to read some of the rubbish on there every day I think I'd pack it in.

    They almost dropped out the league altogether about 12 years ago. Short memories indeed.....

    I hope if were successful one year and we end up a Prem club that we don't end up like them

    I remember when Swansea would have been happy to be described as "tin pot". Perennial bag of wnak for decades. Amazing how fans of these clubs forget what they really are.
