Methven’s podcast out today, talks about the January window.

Worth a listen this, he mentions we put in a significant bid for Nelson abbey . Atleast we’re going for the right players even if we’ve only got a couple over the line so far .

If CBT won’t sign and that figure is accurate, it makes sense to take it and hope it’s reinvested in the team either now or in the summer.

Obviously, some may argue we could’ve done more to get him to sign, but we’ll never know the ins and the outs of what’s been offered, would it have really mattered etc.  

I’ve never been of the opinion he’s a top performer based on his inconsistency, but he would be a significant loss.  I also think (and this is just an opinion because I don’t really follow the tactical side of the game or understand to the level I did when it was 4-4-2), that the standard set up for most clubs these days is a variation of a front 3, and he, like Rak Saki last season was a perfect fit for playing as one of the wide players in a front 3.  If we continue to take that approach, then I think we’re a bit short in that area now as I have big doubts about Campbell making it at this level, and I don’t think the formation suits May, Leaburn, Kanu, Aneke plus one other centre forward.  I think 2 of those 4 (or 5 if we get another striker) are then having to play out of position.  In my mind, all of them would want to be the central forward 

at lot depends on the system Appleton wants to implement of course, having read of 3-5-2 on here in recent days, it may not be a problem, but we have a glut of central midfielders and little wide threat.  Perhaps Edun can do a job further up, who knows

600k for a player out of contract in the summer? I'll take him to Derby myself!!

Good player but that would be a ridiculous fee if true.

How accurate are they usually ?  

It is a complete nonsense account, undoubtedly ran by some little dork.

All it does is copy other journalists tweets, adds the little thinking emoji and says 'X clubs fans, how do you feel about this?' 

Can't stand that account, copy and paste tweets every single day.

I would honestly say there's a 0% chance Derby would fork out 600k for CBT and even if they did, we would find out from an actual credible source, not that account. 

If my message comes across a bit animated, it's because of my burning hatred for those types of twitter accounts.

It’s only good if we can replace him, if we don’t get a replacement we’re in even bigger trouble.

He also mentions phoning reading about other players and other teams knowing we’re desperate for a number 9.

Chatting to Chuks Saturday - he said he’s 2 or 3 weeks away from his next injury 

If CBT leaves that definately leaves a premium player spot to fill, all at a time that the owners are wanting to limp along to the summer with only essential outlay. If they trouser £600k then they should tie up at least a premium loan to season end, then take stock in the summer. Problem is, who is going to want to come and play in a relegation scrap in League One, that is good enough, and fit enough that has enough pace and goals, to make a difference.

It's obvious that we're after a certain profile of striker to fill a hole in the absence of Leaburn and Chuks so with that in mind...

On my lunch break, here's a list of 61 strikers playing in the top four divisions of England or Scottish Premiership that are 6ft or taller between ages 21 and 30 and I think might be interested in playing for CAFC either permanently or on loan. They are in height order (tallest first).

The majority of these won't be good enough which is why they're available, & I didn't check if they're currently injured or recently moved clubs in this window already but anyway... have fun!

Unless I read quotes I take stuff like this with a pinch of salt.

I can say with confidence that account is full of it, probably have that tweet deleted by tomorrow.

Never seen that account get anything right other than something that's already been shared by someone else. Which I wouldn't mind but they don't even credit the journalist who shared the information. Pure poser account

I blocked that account in the summer. Just recycling news from elsewhere, or making it up, to bait responses.

Basket ball anyone?

Callumcafc said:

400k is about right these days for that sort of player & potential in a January window.

Puts the bargain of 250k for May into context more than anything - Cheltenham should’ve held out for at least double that.

Yeah, maybe ..... but Alfie was on a promise ..... if he signed another contract, stayed all of the the next season, Cheltenham would let him go if an offer came in for him.

Cheltenham kept their word to Alfie.
