This restrictive system allows clubs like us to not get our team picked apart the minute we or even an individual player start to do well. Yes they'll still get picked off eventually but at least we get a few months to plan a reaction. I can imagine you'd be squealing from the rooftops if we had a promotion push derailed by uncontrolled transfer activity, even a few plausible rumours could scupper your season. It worked perfectly for over a century. Should never have been changed. There wasn't a fairly sizeable group of clubs who were far richer than the rest though. Pulis used the lack of a window for loan players to our advantage when we were promoted. If he felt he needed a player we were rich enough to just go and loan one. We got pelters off other clubs for getting promoted on the back of our loans.

Never heard of any of them Mejbri i think is the lad with big hair from Man Utd. More a post to say clubs are starting to do business (but then Burnley appear to be having a mass evacuation so need plenty in sharpish)

If Ings is fit I’d take him. Great pro and knows where the onion bag is. Would be a good experienced head to have around the place for a season. Not sure he’s SS’s type though.

Danny "come on down." 15 years too late but you can sit on the bench with Gallager for a season............

He’s on £160k per week so I’d say no chance?!

Anyone that wants Ings hasn't learnt a single thing in the last several years.
He's exactly the kind of signing we ought to be avoiding.

Didn't he ask to leave several times? I know most will blame the club over him because of who he is but I couldn't ever see why he left when he did so close to the season ending He was injured at the time, wouldn't have played any of the last few games anyway I know not a popular opinion but left for the £ on top of everything

Surely it’s about the individual. We’re a very young squad at the moment. It really feels like we need some wise heads in. Not just on the pitch but around the place. Players who’ve seen it and done it. Someone who can pick the younger players heads up when they go down. I still remember the impact Huddy and Dave Watson had on the team and they could be classed as well past it. Currently we’re a team lacking leaders on the pitch. You only have to look at the way we collapsed v Watford and to a lesser extent WBA to see that. I’m all for having a young side but throwing in 2 or 3 experienced heads isn’t a bad thing. I’m not saying it has to be Ings but certainly in the middle we need a leader.

Interesting to see who Hull get up front. Their fans seem to think the main target is Stansfield. www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/hull-city-chief-acun-ilicali-9506355The Tigers have another key striker target which they would look to bring in for a significant fee on a permanent deal. "The striker that we're going to bring will show everybody how serious we are in this league and again I thank our fans for believing in us. "Now they see step by step, that we started making a team not based on loan players but based on permanent players, so if we can get the striker that we want - the one I'm trying everything to do it, but it's not the easy thing - if we can get him, the whole league will understand how serious we are in trying to write a success story."

He might be alright for a season or two elsewhere at Championship level, but it's very unlikely for it to work out at Stoke for him or us, best we stay well clear of this one.
I don't see us going in for him anyway, we seem to be aiming for younger players with the exception of Gibson (and no complaints there, we really needed an experienced leader at CB).

A bit of talk of Bamford and Cooper double signing Their local journo has apparently said that the one they're after is "better than Tommy Conway" and "would cost a lot" I'd be amazed if anyone touched Bamford with a barge pole! It does sound a bit Stansfieldy Also talk of them getting Iversen

I’m not saying it has to be Ings but certainly in the middle we need a leader. Vokes was 29 at the time. Ings feels more light a Dwight Gayle situation, or perhaps Lee Gregory (but he was never rated highly in the first place).
We haven't had much luck in the past decade signings forwards later in their career, the one exception is Steven Fletcher who did pretty well, I think you'd have to go back to Odemwingie back in 2014 to find the success story before that, unless I've forgotten somebody obvious.

If He's willing to take a pay cut,I say go get him. Injury free he'll do a job for us for a season maybe two and we'll have enough time to find a good up coming striker.Plus he could pass on valuable experience to Tezgal,Mmaee and even Koumas(although Liverpool will benefit from that).

He’d be an excellent signing for anybody in this division I'd be massively sceptical at approaching 31, coming off 7 and 4 goal seasons in the last 2 years - with his injury record and £70k-a-week salary for the next 2 yrs!
