With no sign of any new players coming in, the last thing we need right now is a long drawn out transfer saga regarding our very own Chris Robertson. Will he stay? Will he go? Quite frankly, I'm beginning to lose patience.
Burton Albion are clearly keen on the defender - perhaps more so now that their number one target, Ian Breckin, has decided to rejoin Chesterfield. It's a move that would make sense for Robbo too - a move that would bring him closer to his Nottingham roots, and, perhaps, guarantee first team football.
And maybe that's what it comes down to. Robertson has hardly been a first team regular at Plainmoor over the last two years, and when the 22 year old has been playing, it's generally been in his less favoured position of right back - a position where he clearly isn't comfortable, though his performances there have been admirable.
But now, he finds himself playing regulary, in the heart of the defence, and, more importantly, back in the Football League. It's been a long journey back there, and indeed for Robertson - one of the five originals who started our journey into non-league, and helped us back to where we belong. It would be a shame to lose his services now.
Either way, it's all due to get sorted at the weekend, where showdown talks with Paul Buckle await. Here's hoping for some positive news.
lol think yourself kinda lucky mate. we can not sign any1 untill this due flamin dilligence has gone through and even then the PL wanna do their own reserch after that. means we may not be able 2 sign players til mid august. and we only have 8 first team players now with 16 going out of contract
