Id be happy with BTA, especially now McBurnie’s off the radar Southampton in for him which surprises me Never a Premier League player in a month of Sunday's.

Love these youngsters coming in, we should have a very good team with an average age of of about 22 in a couple of seasons. Probs promotion will have to wait a couple of seasons, is anyone up for that?

When are we likely to be signing our new number 9?

Slightly off topic, when does the Sky Sports new channel start showing all EFL games, well 20+ of Stokes matches anyway?..

Think in his first couple of months he did ok for them. Dont recall him getting much of a look in for the rest of the season I didnt mind Browny, but I agree BTA is a better player

Much easier to get a gig when you’ve got pace it never goes out of fashion.

I would still be very pleased if we brought BTA in from WBA as our main forward. I think that would bring us more goals because of his pace and power. Even if we paid up to £4M I think this would be good business for us. I also think his pace and power would lead to Manhoef and Junho scoring a lot more than last season. I really can't see Shampton being in for him as a PL team, I just think that is agent talk. Make it happen Stoke!!! Would it be much different than Luton buying Brown? Neither are silky footballers but imo BTA's attributes are better than Brown's .....and Shampton is something totally different from tiny Luton too!

He’s got good pace amongst other attributes it’s always attractive. Sometimes you just want that option even if it’s not part of your main plan.

I'd be happy if we'd re sign Jacob Brown. He'd be perfect (for his price) to pressure opponents in their own half and would ship some goals too. That is if we are still going to sign 2 strikers.

Seems like you have 2 options to get promoted
1 break ffp and hope you go up or your screwed 2 get relegated spending and hope you get promoted back then use these players to then push for a second promotion How can either option be classed as fare
When we came down we should have sold the kitchen sink instead of trying to keep hold and invested in young players as I suggested at time we couldn't be worce off than we are now with ffp

I know you love an argument but surely you can see that just isn't right mate.
