Only one I’ve heard about is Dan Pybus from York, an energetic midfielder.

Even Danny's dad doesn't hear anything as he knows his dad will blab.

Is Taylor really worth 50% more than Rowe?

I don't think much is happening regarding new signings, but whoever we get won't get us out of this league. We are doomed, doomed, doomed to basement footy for another season. Maybe the stadium will make a nice shopping centre with boutique shops catering to the BGLTQ lot and we will all be following City Of Doncaster FC instead. LOL. Happy Christmas everyone! LOL.

There's a rumour going round that we might win another game before the end of the season.

Even if they're ball park the two that stand out are Taylor and Hurst. Taylor has lost what legs he had and doesn't offer any threat on the rare occasion he's fit enough to play, absolute waste of money. Hurst on the other hand has been one of our bright spots this year and earns not much more than 10% of what Taylor is getting.

I also hope Liverpool are chipping in plenty for Woltman as he's been disappointing for me as well.

Other than that probably not a million miles off what I'd have expected.

The figures are all utterly spurious.

They're designed to provoke this kind of discussion and get people clicking on the site.

I'll hazard a guess though the forum hive mind will process these into some version of reality and they'll eventually be held up like Brian's gourd.

So are you saying Eden Hazard has quit playing for his country so he can sign for us in January?

Now he may be at the end of his career but at least he can still run a bit and pass the ball

LOVE to see that happen ....................

sorry i just woke from a nice dream about a great midfielder .......LOL

Taylor will be one of our biggest earners though , was madness to offer him that new deal irrespective of his injuries

Come on, at least try and make it somewhat believable.

Some of you have never realised how big championship teams squads have been over the years (excluding Rovers and "season return ticket holders Rotherham)

When WOlves won the Championship there were around 11 players loaned out to division one clubs.


Huddersfield seem to have a mere NINE loaned out including one at Bradford and two at Harrogate

https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/huddersfield-town/leihspieler/verein/1110


maybe the manager could convince one or two to jump ship


to repeat if we are ever to get back to the Championship we need a lot more players   ... its called strength in depth

He isn’t and it wasn't. I put this assumption to Gavin Baldwin earlier this season. I was concerned like many, he was playing us for fools having triggered a clause in his previous contract.  It allowed him to choose a longer term but on a lower wage which the club was happy with.

I didn't know that. So Taylor was entitled to a significant extension (more than 1 year) if he chose or if he made certain appearances? That original contract was a bit of a shocker for us.

In the few games JT has played over the last year he hasn’t produced much offensively.
He works hard for the team and helps out in defence but never seems to be a threat up front.

These are the finer details in contract discussion that we rarely hear about and of you're really wanting to sign a player, these things will seem fairly insignificant at the time.

Wasn't aware of this. Thanks for setting the record straight
