Rumour Bus - Hop On

Scratching my head a little at the Sarkic thing. He progressed well at Shrewsbury last season, it makes no sense for him to move to Blues and sit on the bench. It's also not a cost effective move for the club to make in my opinion. We have three able deputies already.. Even if we cut ties with Prieto and loan out Jeacock, we've got Trueman who isn't great, but he's serviceable and that's fine for a number 2. Possibly something bigger at play here...

If Sanderson does join on loan, I suspect it will only be after Wolves have tied him down to a longer contract. I think he wants to move for regular football and has so far not agreed to an extension. If that stance continues I'd expect Wolves sell, which would take us out of the equation.

Yeah another reason why I thought it was strange was I thought Wolves would want him to be playing regularly. The club seem to be making sensible moves in the post-Dong era so I think your right there's more than meets the eye to this. Etheridge?

Just looked up his history - looks like he was one of the hundred keepers the vile signed whilst they were in the Championship.

Does this mean etheridge could be on his way out do you think?

This was my first thought when they were talking about loaning someone!

I'd like Sanderson and another striker, but if we get neither then consistent performances and the vast majority trusting Bowyer at the end of the season will be a massive improvement

Etheridge in hospital with Covid. Not sure if it's connected.

Thoughts are with him and his family. Hope he's able to get out quickly.

I ECHO that thought pash lets hope he recovers quickly and does not get long covid. I think that is the reason we have reacted quickly by loaning a goalkeeper.

Maybe he is worse than we realise, Etheridge. Could be a half season loan or something.
