He'll be sacked before the end of the season. Miserable little excrement

Is that £2m combined or each?

Not sure either is Championship quality as good as they are. I tend to think that the better players in the Championship will rinse Toto who I think can be erratic in decision making, concentration and positioning.

I think that's maybe the early 20's Toto you're describing Chaos. He looked quality whenever I saw him last year and he's still absolutely no age for a centre back at 26. Think the £2m must be combined though!

I thought he looked pretty inconsistent in what I saw of him at Shrewsbury, although this is admittedly limited.
Really good at times, but some costly errors still there, especially early season.

You’d think so, wouldn’t you? But then I thought the same of him in League One and he’s done alright there.

As good as he was for us in our promotion season, I’d never have had Jon Nolan down as a League One player either, let alone Championship. Just goes to show how little your average fan knows about the game really.

That said, neither Lincoln or Wrexham (both average conference sides at the time) fancied him as a non-league player, so maybe in this instance Hurst deserves all the credit for spotting his potential when seemingly no one else in the game could.

I remember at the time feeling it was one of his more underwhelming signings, in fact I was significantly more excited by Christian Jolley. Funny old game...

No chance.....Cowley will be the manager with Rhead taking over from Ronaldo.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I remember Nolan playing for Stockport against Town and thought then he looked very good player.

A million each for Toto and Nolan. And I read today that Brentford are slapping a price tag of £15m on Ollie Watkins (who they signed from Exeter for £1.8m).

The < £1m we got for Bogle is beginning to look more and more of a bad deal.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
