This particular discussion feels like it has reached ‘agree to disagree’ stage, @rigsby and @Grapevine . Could we draw a line under it and move on please?

What discussion is that?
“Sam was brought in to the football club, six feet tall, fast, good left foot, young guy who needed to go out in to the world of men’s football and toughen up in my opinion.
“Then we could see whether he was going to be good enough to play for Blackburn Rovers. He’s been at Southend and didn’t play much at Rochdale but it’s down to Sam. He’ll come back and do pre-season with us, as will a lot of the young players.
“If we think they are ready then they will be part of our squad. If they are not ready then I’m sure the phone will be ringing for our young players and already has for some of our under-23s.”
I feel for the lad.
Doesn't exactly strike me as the talk of a manager keen to retain him, it sounds more like he's being given one last chance to impress before being transfer listed.
Trying to get us back on topic, I wondered whether KB still has contacts at Birmingham - they've released a young striker, Kyle McFarlane, who is free-scoring in their under-23s.
Yes, I know Wabo was too but he's gone now and if as expected Robinson goes too, we'll probably need one more who's reasonably happy to sit on the bench as a back up to the main three of Hopper, Humphrys and Cox - that might allow Kelman and Acquah to go out on loan to a conference club.
He's got an eye for goal as he scored a hat-trick against Col Ewe in the U23s cup last season!
That’s a problem then. We need a left back before then no point in waiting until it’s too late and then finding he is not available.Sam hart will start pre season with Blackburn, so I'm guessing he wont be one of our early signings.
