January transfer window

I think personally that we have very little chance of making the play-offs If we do great, but I think we'd have all taken mid-table at the start of the season. Keep our powder dry and see what we can do with the lad's we've got. I'd rather we concentrated on getting our better players signed up. So we don't have a total churn over come June.

Something to build on.

I'd be happy with two or  three loan player and save the rest of the money till summer. If Ollie Palmer for 100k is the going rate over January then we should sit this out and wait for some value over summer.

100k for a 1 in 3 striker is probably on the cheap side. He's out of contract in the summer and I'm not sure how secure the finances are at Crawley so it's possible. Probably not that likely as I think he is a southern boy. Despite his size he's better with the ball at his feet and doesn't score much with his head.

He is a northern lad I think... these rumours are because he wants a move back up north.

100K was muted for Taylor before his injury... I don't think he's worth that so no chance for Palmer. He's a poor mans 34 year old Pope.

Stay clear JA

This is the misconception just because he is tall... he plays nothing like Tom Pope.

He is fast, mobile and tricky with his feet. Watch his highlights... not a headed goal in sight.

Ollie Palmer is from Epsom Surrey, so a southern based player, although he did play for Mansfield for a while. Its worth watching the highlights of last weeks game with Bradford where he scored twice with his feet, and hit the bar with a header. Any comparison with Pope will be due to his ability to barge his way through, although he looks a lot quicker. If he plays like that every week, he will be money well spent, however, I doubt he does.

I hope we bring some players in, completely necessary as other teams will strengthen. 
 

All I would ask for is one, single, decent left back. 
 

That’s it. 
 

Surely we have the money for that?

All this rumour of bringing in any old youngster from Forest or other clubs untested all feels a bit “Smurfwaite era”.

Twitter rumours saying Birmingham have bid for Smith.

Probably nonsense (from an account with 6,000 followers) but how much would you say he's worth if we were to sell? Given he's out of contract in 6 months too?

He could be worth nothing if goes in the summer without signing a new deal here.

Why who have we flogged?

No one yet and I really hope it stays that way, I saw the Smith rumours just after I saw this post.

Birmingham have been charged again with failing FFP so would be suprised if they have bid.
