Mrs OR goes into hospital for the first of two hip replacement operations on Tuesday poor girl. That leaves yours truly doing pretty well everything for the next 6 months or so. So on that count, not long!![]()

Brighton and Fulham sniffing around Josh Murphy.
Despite a fair bit of moaning about him, from some quarters, I think most would rather see him stay a bit longer.
That's one goal in four or five games from playing out wide so not too shabby. There are quite a few games where he's not really involved much, has the potential to go further.Despite some lambasting him, he scored 11 goals last season. If the fee is big enough that we can replace those goals, then maybe worth considering. Personally, I'd rather keep him. Unless it is too good to turn down, 12m plus?
Edit :- 11 goals and 3 assists, second top scorer behind Maddison. Played in most games (can't be bothered to look up how many) is that not consistent enough?
I would say play hardball on him, see where the season takes us, maybe listen to over inflated offers in January.That's one goal in four or five games from playing out wide so not too shabby. There are quite a few games where he's not really involved much, has the potential to go further.
It would impact on the home grown players rule too if he goes.
I would like to hope that inevitable sale of Maddison will keep us afloat and mean we don't have to sell Josh, if we don't want to.That's got to depend on what other players go out the door. If the fringe players can't be shifted, the club might have to take offers on the likes of Josh, who we would assume would be in Farke's plans for next season.
