Talk of Elphick going out on loan to Reading.

That will be good as he might save one of Small Heaths relegation rivals.

That Nick Powell we’ve been linked with looks very good.

Agree, however Wigan's continued interest in the FAC will get in any club's way I reckon.

Looks like Steve Clarke who is now at Kilmarnock wants Aaron Tshibola on loan

This "if we can get him fit and motivated he can do a job for us" is exactly what has been said for years about Gabby.  In reality there is no way back for a player who loses the plot.  Gabby looks as fat and unfit as ever and I daresay RM is the same.

I agree and we could do without the potential disruption of trying to rehabilitate him into a squad that currently appears to be focussed and together.

Transfer regulations states a player cannot play for more than two clubs in the same season so either he's back with under 23s or he's back to Melbourne right?! We could sell him to someone but he wouldn't be allowed to represent 1st team.

I’d take him there myself, but it’s three days on a good horse.

Absolutely agree with this, it'd be far too much of a risk.

There seems a sense of togetherness in the squad at the moment that I wouldn't want to risk.

Can we not ask him to stay at home?

The Scottish Sun reporting (!) we're in for Aberdeen defender Scott McKenna:-

https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/2146984/aberdeen-scott-mckenna-aston-villa-hull-city-steve-bruce-transfer-signing-news/



He scored a 40 yard screamer today. On the slow motion replay you can see the opposition goalie saying “ WOW “ as he picks the ball out of his net.

I like the link to McKenna big hard left footed defender would add to our squad.

I don't see the point in loaning Elphick though, just sell him there will be plenty of takers for a couple of million.

Going to Kilmarnock sounds a good move to Tish. In that league he could really stand out and earn a move elsewhere. In his hands with Clarke.

Still need a forward.
