John, do you think we will revisit our interest in Porteous? he wouldn't be my choice but we could do a lot worse.

Young blue, I feel we have moved on for now, I think if we r honest nsiala has exceeded expectations and should be one of 5 chs, fernandes is allegedly better, if he is we probably do not need porteous.

Issue surrounds what we do with propper and Balogun as to what we need.

John/ EHL is there anything in balogun possibly staying on in a coaching capacity, I mind PC saying he was really good around the younger guys when balogun got his extension.

Depends on our hack room staff budget, issue is remember we have done away with b team, so don't need that management structure imo.

Could do worse than have big Leon help with the young guys defending. Even how he conducts himself in life is good.

We can't keep Leon as much as i like him his injury's are becoming more and more frequent, U can't pay a player because he's good to have around the gaff.

Probably right, John, I forgot the b teams away? R1 wasn't talking in a playing sense, was alluding to PCs words when balogun signed his extension re:- being a mentor/ Coach as he's been doing with nsiala.

Fork, he is mentor to Nsiala.

Players like Balogun are important to have in and around the squad - mentoring is something that will play a big part in the squad going forward.

Wouldn't surprise me to see him stay at the club in some capacity.

Nsiala has certainly made an impact since joining Rangers and looks to have a big future in the game.
NK is doing a great job unearthing young up and coming players, and hopefully Fernandes is the next one.
Is there an option to buy?

Copland2, yeah - option to buy for Fernandes.

Copland yes according to club site.

Balogun needs to stay on as a coach .

John : if Fernandes is better than Nsiala he must be some player as I love watching Nsiala he is so calm on the ball for a young boy we need to remember he has only played a handful of pro games he is young and has a huge career ahead of him Koppen is doing great in his role.

YoungBlue, Porteous has just been sent out on loan from Watford to Preston NE, until end of the season - he's been warming the Watford bench quite a lot recently, so, hopefully, we can finally wash our hands of this guy.

Twacoos that's my view as well.
