Heeeeeey there it isSo we should all support Man City ?
Yes I want success I want us to play attractive winning football like every supporter in the EFL .
But it doesn’t work that way .
Not as hung up about the PL as others are because it would be a nightmare for us .
I can see the moaning now Joan.
I am hoping it could be fortress Deepdale next season .
That Would be a start .😃

A great question. Woodman, Whiteman, Potts would be my only 3. Close but no cigar would be Hughes. Worrying that I can't come up with a better answer.Who has "done enough for you" this season, of our contracted players?

IF we had the pace in this team it would help cover for a lot of mistakes and would also allow DJ to play more progressive with the ball. Ever since we have switched to this 3-5-2 formation DJ hasn't been able to get into enough shooting positions or been able to use his technical ability to play decisive passes. If we manage to sign some real quality players this window (big if i know) he would excel for us, you could already see how comfortable he was when he was next to Whiteman and Onomah but then as soon as you put him with Ledson or Woodburn he struggles to get involved, coincidence? i think not.
Which Other league 1 players are on more than £20k a week, your post makes it sounds like there’s a fair few of them?The like of Barry Bannan at Sheffield Wednesday in League 1 are on more then £20k a week

Woodman best player storey Hughes Potts has improved a lot McCann Evans .
But they don’t earn the wages that DJ & Brown so I expected a lot more from these 2 players
Hughes has been extremely average since after the World Cup break.
Assuming the 19k a week at Deepdale is correct then whilst that is a massive deal for us and understandably wouldn't be matched given his age, it isn't a massive deal for most of the championship.
I hope DJ does decide to stay but I will be very surprised if he does and it would all be a bit of a sad end.
As per last comment there is an air of expectation from within that he will he elsewhere come the start of the season.
Chip mentions Stoke and that is certainly a possibility with AN having made contact.
Only DJ will know what he will do but suppose it also depends on what other clubs offer him too. At least now he has an offer on the table from ourselves

Stranger things have happened in football.
Decent terms and doesn't have to relocate maybe?
Just being optimistic.

And he’s a lasherAfter watching tonight’s game, I’d have DJ over Barry Bannan every day of the week. He’s an overpaid 1st division player with bags of quality but legs have gone.

Taking an experienced player out of the side is a bad move. He’s been terrific for us and we need players like him to progress.
Our offer not enough.

Join a manager who got the best from youOur offer not enough.

Or
Stay under a manager who plays you in a system that doesn’t suit you, shunts you out to LWB, benches you and then drops you from the 18 completely. Oh, and on a reduced wage at that

Might be an idea to tell the club then.
Nothing finalised as yet but will be surprised if he doesn't end up at Stoke.

So he managed 28 starts for a team that didn't even make the L1 play offs?He's appeared 46 times for Derby, 28 starts and has only completed 90 minutes four times, the last being in October.
On his day a real handful for us, but L1 is probably the right level for him if we're honest (could say that about a lot of players!)
DJ has been hot and cold for years. He must be incredibly frustrating for a manager because you don't know game to game what you're going to get from him. People have used him being left out at Burnley as a stick to beat Lowe with but completely forget that, when played, his form had been very poor until then. He got back in, played well for a few games (longer than his usual spells), and then was as guilty as anyone when we came up against decent sides. I'm perfectly okay with looking elsewhere, but obviously wish the elsewhere wasn't Woodburn!Or, our fans don't like our best players a) not being played and then b) not being offered a new deal until it's too late.
Absolute tragic the treatment of DJ this season. Ledson has played more minutes in the league than him and for DJ to only start 26/46 league games is a joke.
And if you think we'll be better off without him, more fool you. We won't adequately replace and we further regress

As usual, I post what I’m told from 2 VERY reliable and different sources which always say the same thing…this doesn’t mean these things always come off.Two months ago my missus verbally agreed to give me one blowie a week. I’ve not had one yet.
