Re: Adam Reach signs....
My grandfather supports Wednesday. He sent me a text saying:
"He’s a great guy; he scores bangers, is good at set pieces, delivers pin points crosses, and has solid link-up play. However, he is fairly slow, so it's best to use him as a left wing-back or left-back alongside a left-sided center-back who can cover for his lack of pace when tracking back. He’s a useful squad player because he can play both left back and in central midfield."

I hope he finds his happy place. Whether that is back in the pro game of just enjoying kicking a ball around at the lower end of the pyramid.

Re: Random sightings of our players outside of football
Over a period of a couple of years I bumped into Dave Jesus's Carroll more than a few times to the point he must of thought I may of been stalking him, but he was always pleasant enough to me and my clear excitement at seeing him once again.
Also I saw Jamie Young once walking down Oxford street with a lady, not long after that crazy win at Charlton in the cup and gave him a solo original "Jamie Young Young Young ' he just smirked and carried on.
Re: Random sightings of our players outside of football
Must be 20+ years ago now but stood at the bar in the Brewhouse in Oxford waiting to talk to the landlord and not really paying attention until the bloke next to me says to the barman, "I think this gentleman was before me". Turned round to see Keith Ryan and Simon Stapleton. Could just about blurt out something about not waiting to be served. I even had my Wycombe scarf in my coat pocket but was simply too starstruck to say anything more. Very nice, polite chaps though.
Re: Rumour Mill
I know Berry/Lowry weren’t more expensive than Magnus but does anyone know if they were more than the old transfer record? Breaking a transfer record potentially 4 times in one window is crazy stuff!
Re: Richard Kone signs
I think we're safe. They're not gonna let him go this late in the window unless they want to start an actual riot.
