I'm okay we did this. He did look good.
And as you say, another much needed body.

posted on 5/8/23

Lets hope we got the deal done late last night so he can play tomorrow. Would be terribly amateur if we missed the deadline and he cannot play

Yeah fine. Good player. Shame about injuries. Hopefully get 1500 minutes out of him and that’s all we need.

Underwhelmed tbh.

However, welcome (back) to ER Sam Byram and hope he does well for us.

Aggressive in the transfer window and we sign an injury prone right back as a left back .....

Farke likes to play inverted fullbacks who cut in.

Sensible signing. Season with likely 50+ games and he offers us much needed depth.

Knows the league and the club and we’ve been sensible with the contract length.

Really smacks of desperation.

My big concern is he has played more games for us in four years then he has in the 8 since he left.

He offers good cover if he can stay fit as he can play all along the back line which in a 50 plus season will be needed.

But realistically you'd imagine he was signed as cover rather than a starter meaning we still need more in if we want to be challenging for promotion

Good decision but I read about if days ago.

We'll only sign players if better than we already have.

Who is he meant to be replacing?

You need to ask?

One name - Firpo.

Why didn't we go for Max Aarons then?

Great, am unreliable freebie right back signed to play left back…

When will we learn?

Why all the negativity, he gives us options but doesn't mean we ever have to play him, doesn't even have to be named in the squad.

What a great idea we could pay for 6 poor players who never get named in squad.

Hang on isn’t that we did last few years?

Have a feeling Hammond's connection to Newcastle
might net us a couple of players. Ryan Fraser keeps
being linked. Not sure I'd want him. But, if Farke wants
him then okay.

I hope Jamal Lewis might be coming to us once they
sort out their squad. Brandon Williams keeps being
attached to us. Is it real? Or just lazy connect the dots
by journalists due to Norwich/Farke connection?

I believe these deals when they happen.

But for all the talk about how the 49er do business quietly, we knew about Darlow for 2 weeks.

49’ers do their business so quietly, you’d could be forgiven for thinking they’re doing no business at all, Jonty.

God Jonty, your pupils must love you, "why bother practicing your forehand you're cr@p and you aint ever going to get better". No wonder there has never been a Wimbledon Champion hailing from Croxley Green.
