Good news though, I think it's very telling that Kingy turned up on the first day of training despite not having signed a new contract. Whereas Kalas was in Prague, and even later that same week Sainsburys, whilst everyone else was in. Stoke the latest rumour for Kalas. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 I remember Stoke were linked with Kalas a while ago. That's good news with King however, one more experienced player retained and he can work on the coaching side too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) *Scott pending obviously We now have some good CM numbers as well as other positions. Yes I know King was here already but... Naismith, Scott*, James, Williams, King, Knight. McCrorie can also step into CM or at least defensive midfield, can't he?

Robbored Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 Excellent news even tho in was on the cards. Pearson and King go back years with mutual respect between them and King will act as player/coach this coming season. Many younger players look up to King as well and it’s always possible that King might take over from Nige when he decides to retire. Good move all round in my view. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 Good news. King did well when he filled in last season and he must be a positive influence in the dressing room. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Brent Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) I think all the young players who broke through in the last 2 to 3 seasons will state how much of a positive influence King has had on them And he can still play Edited July 14, 2023 by David Brent 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 Really good news. Bloke is a credit to himself & to the game, he’s won absolutely everything yet is a very humble, dedicated pro, the likes of Conway, Scott & Bell clearly love him. Acknowledges that his availability in his first season meant he felt he’d let himself down so worked hard to make sure it improved, last season he had 100% availability, which is excellent for a 34 year old. Pearson said when he took over he wanted to bring in the right people, no surprise he went back to Andy King & Matty James. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sglosbcfc Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 I know I'm being greedy but I'd love Kalas to sign as well. That would be the cherry on the top of what is looking a very decent squad in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The complete lack of any kind of brand consistency when it comes to the multitude of different badges being used annoys me very much, but I can't say that the colour of a training kit overly concerns me. Our training kits are hardly ever red, why does this particularly colour annoy you so much? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t_b Posted July 14, 2023 Report Share Posted July 14, 2023 An absolutely universal outpouring of praise for his new contract from both the young and old in our squad on social media. Says a lot about his importance to our squad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt, but not every pro reaching the autumn of their career acts like he does towards first year pros, bet plenty give it the “don’t you know who I am” stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our training kits are hardly ever red, why does this particularly colour annoy you so much? we are red and white, the Gas are Blue and white. for me there is a clear identity that is easy to carry into our 'brand' (apologies) and it doesn't involve the colour of our rivals. (and whatever the gap, they remain our rivals surely, as do sheff utd/wed, Man Utd/City and other shared city teams) we have f ucked around with the kit these last seasons in a way that just whiffs of money grabbing, it's not unique, it's a sad indictment of corporate football. but it would not be difficult to have a home kit, with associated training wear that was red and white at it's core. could still be interesting and contemporary in it's design, but badge branding and colour could be so much better defined. these last two seasons though are just a shambles in terms of all of the elements of our identity. (I've banged on about this enough really ) The away kit cycles between white and black, and purple (fans fav) and now this godawful lemon / see through yellow. (they can't even get that colour right) but where blue comes into this i'm not sure. out of interest, do any of the other 'red and white' teams have blue within their range?
