Far too early for the official thread but a couple of rumours doing the rounds.
Gabriel is attracting interest from Lincoln but that's according to Alan Nixon.

Preston have been sniffing around Gabriel as well

Jesus, 17 goals in 61 outings at lower league level. Is this what it has come to?
Apter has nine goals in 30 odd appearances and he is a winger.
Very underwhelmed if this is true

it’s ok we won’t get him anyway as the mighty Wycombe and the Gas are in for him 🫣😭
 
Sonny is reported to be a 'player of interest' to Bradford.
I agree with Tangerinemoss with regards to Critchley's open criticism of the players.
SS needs to keep Jordan G & Grimmy & build around them - they're our two championship standard players, who will attract attention if we stay in L1.
 
Jordan is a good player, but depends on offer as he has spent a lot of time injured. I think there will be a massive clear out and would rather take a punt on Kouassi coming good and youth, than someone who scores occasionally for Rochdale
 
Well if true and he is all we are looking at, it shows where our ambition is really doesn't it. In that regard it doesn't matter who is managing us.
Surely we should be looking at a proven goalscorer even if taking one from the league below. Macauley Langstaff springs to mind and would fit that lone number 9 role perfectly. I'd hope we are looking at more upfront that just Rodney who is more a right sided forward than a true centre forward. Still he's out of contract in June so it's probably nailed on we bring him in. We love a freebie.
Tbf though to Devante Rodney he does look a good player and I'm not against bringing him in as long as he's not our big attacking wow signing.

I was gobsmacked Gabriel has got over 100 appearances in, he always seems to have a long term injury. He can look quite good, classy even at times but I've not come away from many games thinking "wow Gabriel had a great game." I've seen plenty of strong, physical players in their mid to late 20s in L1 this season put in a solid performance, lots of energy, guile and determination. We need 4 or 5 of these types of players to compete in this crap division next season. Critchley though likes tippy tappy yes men who can pass a ball backwards a lot.
 
Might need a complete rebuild for next season, can see a lot of players leaving cos nobody looks particularly happy at the moment, and I'm not convinced that critchley can coach a team to success, or even find ways to utilise the talents of the players he has. Can imagine 9 or ten new players in the mould of Norburn. Another year of critchley might see us fighting to stay in league one

I think Jordan's injuries are due to his over enthusiasm when trying to win the ball.
Our coaches should have coached this naivety in his play out of him by now & NC should be playing him in a position & in a way that is best suited to his play.
One thing's for sure, he'll always give 100%, even if he's not having the best of games.
 
Cant see Gabriel joining Lincoln. He was our top target on getting promoted to the Championship and is by far and away the best player we have IMO.

We need some consistency if we’re going to get promotion next season and Gabriel’s just about the last player I’d want to see depart.

That being said far bigger clubs than Lincoln will show an interest.

I would agree Gabriel is a good player at this level, if he was to leave as he is from that area I think. Cash and C/B Forino 23yrs 6"3" in exchange, he was there best player in the game IMO.

He should take lessons from Carey on how to avoid making a tackle, then you are never out injured!

When we signed Jake that showed our ambition.

He’s a great lad and decent player but we were in the Championship at the time so should have been looking for better.

All down to SS.

He was bloody awful on Monday until maybe the last 10 minutes. He has all the attributes and age on his side to be a good championship player but I don't think he's quite there yet. As with Joseph we bought potential, unrealised potential at this point. Regardless selling him would be a mistake, especially if it were to a club like Lincoln!

I always thought Gabriel played better as a RB and would always link up well with Bowler and overlap. We haven't got the players to play 4-4-2 anymore though due to NC obsession with 3-5-2
 
Rodney is a journeyman lower division striker with unimpressive stats. Not what we should be after. From England under 21 striker Morgan Rogers to that in less than two years?

You do come out with some rubbish clueless, you will say anything about tactics, 3-5-2, formations, now even the kids to get out of any debate, he/she will be on here soon as A TINY GRIN and they will make more sense than you do.
