Best CH at the club last year. Speaks volumes.
He was poor after Christmas mind and lost his place in the side. Got the run around from a few championship strikers. Sign players like Mepham for the premiership we may aswell just forfeit trying to stay in the league

I don’t disagree but highlights our defensive problems. We need 2 CBs urgently.

Totally out paced by Hamer for the opening goal at Wembley.

Judging by what we’ve seen so far from the new lads, particularly the keeper, I reckon we’ll be getting proper technical, skilful CBs.
Emil Riis For Preston and Harris for Oxford ran him ragged second half of the season aswell. He was pretty average after the new year. No chance will we sign him the club know hes not good enough for this level

Most available and consistent, he was excellent for first half of season and still decent throughout but I think both Ballard and Alese were individually better. Just not often enough.
Yes he was. So?

He quotes the ability to get about the pitch, which means pace and stamina but yes we need someone who is comfortable with ball

Which was possibly ultimately good- O’Nien wipes him out and probably gets sent off although with O’Nien that situation may not have arisen I suppose.

It’ll all of the above like. I reckon we’ll get a shock when we see how different they are to what we’ve got now. Looking at Roefs yesterday, I thought f*** me we haven’t just gone and got a better version of Patto, it’s a massive change in how we’ll play.

Ghisolfi gets a free pass as we can’t spell his name.

I'm away for the weekend after the most intense 3 months I've ever had woth new job, how did the new lad do yesterday with his feet is he comfortable??
Good Teeth Keith
Central Defender
He could be running, it’s hard to tell
Do you really believe that’s what will happen?
I don’t bet, but even I might be tempted to put a pound on us having two in before the deadline.

We are still 2 weeks away from the start of the season mate. I expect a CB of proven prem quality to be here by the end of the week. The morrocan lad Aguerd is heavily linked, who is an upgrade to anyone we have imo. Mepham is decent, and a free transfer would be good- but he isnt worth the 10 mill Bournemouth want for him.

Mepham would be a good addition to the squad, wouldn't pay 12 million they originally asked for mind, maybe another loan with a buy option.

Oh man I thought we’d see the end of the “x player was shite after Christmas”
Minging crack, but he’s my last response to it.
It is absolute bullshit, there is no chance we go up without Mepham and you should speak about him with more respect.
Whether it was Sheff Utd at home, or the cup final against Sheff Utd, the lad was imperitive to us getting promotion, and should be praised for that.
Taking the last 5 games away which Regis clearly did, NO player in our squad had a big post Christmas drop off, not Rigg, not Mepham, not Jobe, just shite spotted on here.
That being said, no we shouldn’t sign him for prem, as I agree with the club prioritising athletic quick defenders which is needed for the Pl.
