Sniffing around anything Vale related ends up with the sniffer being hospitalised due to severe nasal damage caused by toxic fumes

Luton are paying 4M for that camel? All he did when he came on against us was foul people and dive around for free kicks. Fcuk may he was useless! So was Whittaker ffs he looked gash

From Walters comments I'm deducing that one difference this summer, from last summer, is we'll be doing some diligence on the character of the players we sign. It doesn't appear we did that last summer.

It doesn't appear we did that last summer. I don’t think that’s entirely fair. We made two of the better transfers we’ve made since Arnie? In terms of potential profit anyway. There’s no real bad eggs? Mmaee just needs managing properly. He needs managing. Something some football managers forget. Look at Ten Haag with Sancho. Lazy shite management and he’s showing what he’s all about at Dortmund. No one else seems particularly a bad egg or to have a bad attitude. Vidigal has been out the side for 3/4 months and we’ve not heard or seen a bad word from him. We just need more better players. Like everyone else.

I am pleased the Jay Rodriguez link seems to have not been true. Hopefully we've learnt our lesson with ageing strikers past their best.

In terms of character I'm thinking desire and hunger to succeed. There was an incident recently where we should have had a penalty and not one player kicked off about it. They're a soft touch. Lots of nice pleasant people though

McNair leaving Boro. Worth a punt? or not? Well, he seems to get hurt enough... Bad joke. Actually pretty much every time I've seen him play (Far short of 25 times) he's been a nuisance for the other side so can see why he'd get brought up. Maybe his injuries were more of the contact type?

It was just really weird that we went from quite a typical Alex Neil team (boring and hard working), giving him the summer to reshape the squad into the least Alex Neil team you could imagine in which none of the front players could really press. Dublin's team definitely found some good players but the process as a whole was disjointed at best. Also don't forget about the two week loan of Chiquinho 😂😂

Duncan McGuire wants to come to England and we wanted him in Jan. Could be one to keep an eye on alongside Jay Rodriguez signing

Overall Dublin’s transfers seem average to good. The manager led ones seems bad. Someone like Leris worries me though. I presume he was a Dublin signing but fuck me he’s shite. The Sampdoria fans said he wasn’t really a footballer and that’s born out. Terrible recruitment that one.

Mmaee was causing a problem as is well known as it happens Schumacher appears to have handled it perfectly and the player appears to have responded however it also appears the club didn't take into account Mmaee record of being a dick at other clubs Nothing unfair there, the person in charge of recruitment didn't do his job

True enough there Clodders Hopefully one of Ennis or Mmaee might pick up with a pre season under their belt under the manager a bit like Cundle took time to do. I still think a player in one of them hopefully If we shift Mmaee could live with it though but he has ability . McNair would be a decent signing. You need a mix of youth and experience

Not going to be a starter as a forward but as he’s under contract a back up right back might be an option?

Chiquinho didn't seem to settle or get on with Neil for whatever reason. Not sure if he was a bad egg as such or there was purely a personality clash between player and manager. Was swiftly dealt with though whatever and whoever the cause was.

He had been fine and then that happened and it all went to shit. Caused by the club. He was turning up late before the change of manager He has been a dick at other clubs as a quick Google search will tell you Either RM didn't do that or ignored it, either way he didn't do his job The point remains data driven recruitment has to be backed up with due dillegence

I really hope we don’t make being a good egg a defining criteria in player recruitment.
