    Stickied League 1 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2024/25

    You can't argue with a strike rate of one in three in a side that struggled every season he was with us but I don't think Pigott is as good as other fans seem to think he is. I'd be surprised if the competition from Championship clubs for him was that serious, at least from any who saw him as a...

    O'Neill is long-term injured but Reilly might start. Pigott has turned into a very decent player though so although he wasn't at your place for long he'll be the one keeping the tradition going if anyone.

    Think a draw is likely though this is the second of what will be 4 games in 9 days if we get through the cup on Thursday so think we'll have quite a bit of squad rotation going on for this one.

    And I saw us win the return fixture 5-1. No real chance of a single goal let alone a brace for any of yours' yesterday. You were tidy enough with plenty of possession but we're tough to break down now away from home. If we can start winning some home games we have a (long) outside shot at being...

    Our under-18s beat Rotherham last night in the Youth Alliance Cup 19/20 final with the greatest goal you'll ever see.

    You were easily the best side we've played this season I thought. Add some firepower and you would be right up there.

    New stadium

    I think away fans have suffered enough with the away end at Kingsmeadow over the years. You may even be able to see the game from this one.

    And here's the latest pic, with the roof going on over what will be the away end.

    Finally managed to hang on to a lead today. Fleetwood had all the possession but we're quite happy to sit back and soak it up. Unbeaten over 90 minutes so far this season suggests we are a very different proposition to the last couple of years. Easily the best squad we've had.

    The way Forest have started this season you'll be loaning them players in a couple of years

    Were you in for him again this season or have you filled left-back? Should imagine you'd be a more attractive option for him although I know he did really enjoy his time with us.

    Steve Seddon signed on loan from Birmingham. Was awesome for us last time he was here - very happy with him signing but now gives us three left backs so the rumours of Nesta Guinness-Walker being sold may have some basis after all.

    Chislett is a bit of a find from non-league. He was playing level 7 only a couple of years ago as was Guinness-Walker our left wing-back. Chislett going off was when we stopped pressing because he chases down defenders like an annoying fly you can't swat. I think he was knackered by then anyway...

    No disrespect taken. Our own defence is surprisingly poor so far and we need to learn how to put games to bed when ahead. If Pigott's fairly easy chance at 4-2 had gone in we might have gone on to score even more but credit to your subs for turning it around though we seemed to run out of steam...

    Signed Daniel Csoka on a permanent deal, young centre half released by Wolves. Seemed decent enough in his trial against QPR. Expecting one more forward in apparently.

    Yes, should have put it to bed with one of those two chances at 2-1 but credit to Northampton they dug in and came back. They need to get their communication in the back line sorted out or better teams than us will put a hatful past them. They looked much better going forward, with that lad they...

    Don't expect Palmer - he's not fit yet. There'll be lots of midfield energy closing you down very quickly with overlapping wingbacks who would be dangerous if they could get the ball off the ground for crosses. Not much finishing quality, although Pigott does score regularly enough at this level...

    Well, who knows? Someone has to be the dark horses I suppose. The optimism comes from the new stadium mainly so that will no doubt help in general confidence on the pitch but the new bunch of players do seem to have something about them. Down to earth tomorrow though probably after a spanking by...
