Can you get flights to any Nordic countries from EMA...? On the other side of the coin... how easy is it going to be for our thousands of new Nordic fans to get to the Pirelli?

I think Birmingham would be the better option everard - 1 a day with Ryanair, Wednesdays and Saturdays for about $120. Manchester to Oslo is also a goer for $67.

It is when we mention the word Nordic, i think to the legendary phone in show on talksport where a caller rang in to complain that anti niemi had not been selected for the Scotland squad. “Anti niemi?” “Yeah..why has he not been picked ? It’s a disgrace “ “But he is Finnish “ “What ?” “He is Finnish “ “He is not finished - he is only 28”
Classic 😂

I'd be surprised by that one Luke. Barely played last season and we've got much better already at the club.
Who knows though.

I don’t mind it as a backup behind Sweeney, especially because he is left footed as well, although hopefully the fee isn’t too high

I suppose Hughes and Brayford have yet to sign so far. Plus Moon had a very up and down season so I'm certainly not against us bringing in additions. Sraha could be good left sided cover behind Sweeney.

Shrewsbury fans seem to be sad to see him potentially leave.
Young, room for improvement. Seems like he may do well as a back up to Moon and Sweeney?

Agree that he was poor at Alfreton, their big centre forward gave him a torrid time. Looked well out his depth and I was very pleased he'd signed elsewhere.
You'd expect that any young player coming our way would be of a better quality than that with the new gaffers connections and recent insight in to that level.

You'd expect that any young player coming our way would be of a better quality than that with the new gaffers connections and recent insight in to that level. He played in a few of the friendlies, last summer, as I recall. Alfreton wasnt great but he looked useful in some of the other games I saw him in. let's not forget, under Dino, very few impressed in pre-season last summer. I get the feeling, from who we have been rumoured with we are looking at bringing in a much younger group of players. If Sraha is one then I would expect him to be a 'squad' player and someone that Robinson may well feel that he can improve. His youth career was at Chelsea (not at the same time as MR) and Arsenal and I bet most of the London clubs would know a lot of the youngters coming through so MR may well be aware of what sort of player Sraha could be. I think we will be mainly looking at players in the 20-24/25 age bracket, with some League One/Two experience so are no strangers to the level (unlike last season's loanees) and with the potential to improve under a renowned coach, for developing players, and who could turn out to be saleable assets to us. Despite last season I am really hoping that MR can work with players like Kegs and possibly Josh Walker who clearly have ability but just need a coach to give them confidence and believe in them. In Chauke's case you dont come through Southampton's academy as far as he did without having something about you. We know Walker has pace and if played as a striker, with the right support, could save us some money in the transfer market. At the end of the day, if neither want to stay after their experience last season then so be it and we move them on and get someone else in, but I would like to see them given a chance.

We've lacked proper midfielders immensely over the last few years, plenty of experience and a good age.
