Watched Derby at Fleetwood earlier. Like they need another striker….NOT! At least he’s getting game time with us. Not certain to get it at Derby!

more concerned about the JJ injury, he looked gutted coming off.

Possibly going to Derby to keep the bench warm. Don't know were our goals will come from with JJ out too..

I'm not sure he'll want to leave us, only to sit on the bench somewhere. I'm sure he'll be off, but it will be to play. King likely the same, and Bloxham if Shrewsbury are wanting him to play for them. Hopefully their injury crisis is easing, so they'll leave him with us.

And then there is Mayor?

A big rebuilding exercise at the end of the season is bad enough, but rebuilding in January too :cry:

Derby were mentioned as scouting Mellon a few weeks ago.

Apparently, that rumour started with one of their fans saying that Derby should be interested in Mellon. It grew from there.

His work rate up front is not enough, he suits this league and needs much more assets to his game. He’s young, but he has to learn scoring goals is not enough.

Millwall were looking at him in the match v Stockport. There was a photo of the scouts sheet that he was making notes on. He was also looking at Pye from Stockport.

Watching Ged B's interview, yes he accepted players could be going elsewhere. But he also mentioned players that had been scouted to replace should the worse happen. We just have to trust the management team to get the right players in.

Yes we do have to trust the management team but a major point is that it will take time to then blend everyone into a team again.
