We got Wyke 2 Januarys ago when we were at the arse end of the division with hardly 2 pennies to rub together. I'm sure in our current position Dykes and Curle would be able to attract someone similar from the fringes of a premier league / championship team.

Kemar Roofe, Ricky Holmes, Matty Taylor. All available for £100k and would definitely come here. Sell Wyke for 300k and buy them all which would mean promotion would be "nailed on". I know all this because I overheard it in the toilets at one of my FSF meetings, where I'm the main man incidentally.

Now this looks like it has legs, had anyone got any serious suggestions? Tom Pope isn't a bad shout, wasn't he transfer listed by Bury earlier this season? How about Ricky Miller who's banging them in for Dover? Would he be out of our price range?

Because he is probably only on about three hundred quid a week they have him tied down to a ten year contract.

With this money from Wyke.

A necessity is a LB. Permanent or half season loan.
1 forward, one in the mould of Wyke (Tom Pope a good shout).
Then for me another attacking midfielder, like a Devitt (who has not impressed).

I'd take Billy Kee who I'd say could be the cheap option. Wonder how much it would take to prise Ollie Watkins from Exeter, was impressed with him up here and been getting some good reviews. Noticed Liam Sercombe has been on the bench for Oxford lately but I'd say he was out of our price range.

Thing is now Accrington would know exactly how much we have and it would likely be the exact same as Kee's asking price.

Why not go for a couple.

Kee could be easily prized away from Accrington, and we know exactly what we'd get from him. Knows where the goal is and experience.

James Alabi at Chester, young and I can't imagine much wages wise. Doing well in the Conference.

There's some bloke called Ibhere who could be an ideal replacement. Big lad who doesn't mind getting stuck in. Good player when he's on his game. Might be worth a bid! ;)

None of us know exactly how much we have. How much goes to Boro? How much is the down payment? Has any money gone to the player? £250k is the alleged overall figure but we could end up with a fraction of that initially.

I read somewhere that they knocked back a 300k bid for Watkins last week.

A lot of proven names being mentioned here.

Wouldn't surprise me if Dykes has some young striker lined up from the reserves of a championship club. Bit like he did 2 Januarys ago when we got that lad from Boro.

If Wyke goes given that so many have left and only one player in, would we have time to find a find a replacement, only a few days left.

Byron Harrison? He scored their first goal against Lincoln the other night then went off injured after 20 odd minutes. 6ft 3, age 29, been in and around the lower divisions before. We could do worse, you wouldn't think Barrow could expect more for him than we'd get for Wyke.

After the touting Curle has done to get someone to buy him would be amazed if 2 or 3 are not lined up (Wyke replacement plus LB and centre mid or centre half).
Who knows, we may even pay a fee for someone

Agents are only happy when their players move or get new contracts.

OS says there was a meeting yesterday with NC, KC and CW, can only hope and assume a new contract was offered.

James Alabi of Chester would be a decent signing.

Adam Morgan from Halifax looks decent too but just moved there in December from Curzon Ashton.
