    Question.

    Who will be the worst signing?
    James Norwood or Leroy Lita.

    I'm not sure at this signing but I know they are both terrible signings. Remember asking Ben Mansford when he signed Lita, WHY

    Wonder what the board would be saying about Wayne ( bertie ) Biggins. 1990 ish under Machin.
    He only signed for us cos he lost his licence drink driving.
    He wasn't far away Sheffield and could get to Barnsley dead easy.
    Board would be in F ,,@#%% meltdown.
    He was a character decent striker too.
    Went to Celtic from us if I remember .
    Most hated Celtic player apparently.
    Don't think was owt to do with drinking

    You keep pointing out that Norwood is no good.

    Can you provide us with a list of 4 or 5 realistic forward targets that you would approve of us signing?

    I think Norwood would be a decent shout .
    Be an old head to help the young strikers .

    I just hope he's more Gary McSheffrey than Garry O'Connor

    I think the more relevant question is who would you rather have:
    • Norwood
    • Cole
    • Iseka
    I agree there is risk, but there is also risk in trusting our existing strikers or the strikers we’ve been linked with in the press. On the flip side, of them all the one most likely to get the highest goal return for me is Norwood

    Seems like sensible business to me

    My mate who supports tranmere


    Hey up tommo! ☺️ nice to hear from you pal

    All good here thanks - hahaha I don’t think so!

    Yeah man! He was a fan’s favourite for us. Scored the winner in the playoff final a few years ago to get us promoted.
    Too good for L2 prob top of L1 / maybe Champ’s is his level - just didn’t work out for him when he left us for Ipswich, which non of us blamed him for…

    He’ll be a few years older now but does know where the net is

    Why not say all the strikers I have seen. Iseka Jalo Cole Aitchinson Norwood Marsh.

    4 of the 5 professionals there I've picked are behind a 16-year-old. If they are picked at any point behind a 16-year-old then they have zero rights to be at the club.

    I'm going to go back and listen to the presser and fans thing on May 27th. But I think Khaleed said they wouldn't change the way they have recruited.

    This stinks the room out of the Lita Bailey Tracey type signings Mr Cryne was so critical of and went from the split recruitment Under Wilson to the full data-driven approach.
    Neerav chuckled about how the previous chairman signed players. It's time for him to smell that coffee. If Neeravs performance was quantified into a sports performance then he would be making Kohli look like he was having the year of his life.

    I'd go for someone on Loan. Try someone like Delap for example or Hugill from Manchester United. Real Talent.

    You also posted on this very forum claiming Ike Ugbo was a better signing than Tammy Abraham. I’ve never known you ever rate a player and that player ended up being decent. Idiot.

    What like Dike. When I first seen him linked. I spent 1 minute looking him up and was so excited. I was so excited to sign Harvey Barnes, Ryan Kent.

    Ugbo ad Tammy aren't even the same player. Timmy maybe but not Tammy.
