Danny Ings has joined Sheff U. Might be ok, more likely going to be injured most of the time.

My guy at Sheff U is worried that the money they have been promised to be spent has not materialised in anything like the volume the fans were promised.

Poll: Moses Odubajo - Stick or Twist?

They have just spaffed £7m on Tanganga from Millwall though.

Never thought I'd feel sorry for Millwall, but they finally had a top six team this season and then it gets picked apart at the end of the window. Doughty put for 8 weeks as well.

That, in my opinion is a very good buy, , big strong and quite quick I think he is better than the championship.

Agree. He was a big part of the reason I had them so high in the season preview.

Isn't there talk about spending £4m on Ronnie Edwards on another thread? Can hardly plead poverty this year, with some of the money we've thrown about. It's certainly not parachute/Birmingham/Wrexham levels, but we've definitely thrown a few quid about this summer.

I don't think it's happening, though. I was mostly joking about how parachute payment clubs etc. can easily drop £7m on a CB, which we clearly can't / shouldn't.

I have been surprised by how much we have spent this season, though, I assume thanks to Eze.

Charlton lost 3-1 yesterday by changing their full 11 for the game. Sounds familiar.

One thing to note was a particular Charlie Kelman starting and doing so well that BBC Sport gave him a 4.5 out of 10.

Guarantees a hat-trick on Saturday, I assume 😂

Not bad business considering they got him 12 months ago for free.

I'm still surprised no bottom half premier league clubs went in for him if, maybe a big if, he really did have a £1.2m release clause for top flight clubs.

Probably one of those players too good for the championship but not good enough for the prem but still would've been a useful squad player or for rebuilding once relegated, or sold on for profit.

In which case it probably wasn't true. Good signing for Sheffield Utd though.

Poll: Who’s better?

I'm not saying I'd have the fella here.... I certainly wouldn't.

But.......

That is the other end of the spectrum to Le Shrug so far.

Tells us that for Saturday we need to do the three basic things better than the opposition (Janet and John for footballers)
1. Run more
2. Battle more
3. Score more

Oh.........

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

I’m not a betting man but I’m sorely tempted to bet on a red card or two for Saturday’s game.

The worrying thing is will our bloke have our lot fired up, if we go all passive like we tend to after about 20 mins at home, Jones and his lot will have a field day. Stephan may just be a bit too nice for the Championship and English football in general and if the team does not go at it on Saturday maybe more trouble ahead. Got to send the team out to win the game not to try and not lose, been a problem at home for a long while now and that is why Loftus Road has been seen as a bit soft, when it used to be a hard place to come for a win.

He's speaking English, but I don't understand a word of what he's saying.
You never, never, make 11 unenforced changes to your starting 11, and expect to win the game.
He would never do that for a Championship game, because it's stupid.
I think modern coaches are absolute shite. Total and utter shite.

Swansealona signed Adam Idah from Celtic for £7million.
That's SEVEN MILLION OF THE KINGS POUNDS

Drink that in.

Based on League finishes last couple of seasons I'd class Swansea as rivals (not because they're in same Division but expected place spread in the table).
Mad.
