Tough watch. Again. Wish we wouldn’t play on Saturday nights -spend all day apprehensive followed by being in a bad mood all Sunday. We need a better option at Centre half than Long.

Re: BFC TRANSFER NEWS SUMMER 2020(MUST CONTAIN LINK)

Think personal terms might be tricky with Wilson. Curtis Jones on a season long loan might be prudent. He looks like an excellent player and gets paid £7500 according to the wages table. Terence Trent is certainly due a wage hike when compared with his team mates. Not sure how they justify paying hi...

Think it's more down to the interested clubs not quite stumping up the cash rather than Tarks having a change of heart.
