Every penny counts when you're as skint as we are

Thought it was 2 hour game

I can assure you that their owner is one hell of a tw@t

Are there any suggestions the Collins deal is close?

Okoli, only based on the fact both are sh1t both are bomb scares but Faes is better on the ball than Okoli and can generally pass

Couldn't afford Kone last year. The one letter less must make One affordable.

But they had sort of earned new contracts with solid performances over a number of years for the club. But I also think you have a point on the length of contract - players like some sort of security of more than a year.

You can tell Rudkin is not in charge - that's 3 deals in a day and counting.

You've lost me

Jeez, 29 is hardly a pensioner. He'll be more than good enough for the Championship if we return next year.

A bit harsh, I feel. He was very good under Enzo and whilst the last two seasons have been soured, I can't for the life of me think of anything that Dennis Wise did that was constructive.

Yeah, at least it's not Choudhury, which gives me hope RM doesn't see him as the potential Captain this year or he hopes he'll be sold on.

I thought we might have got a few free transfers over the line by now - quite a few have moved on or not had their contracts renewed. Don't really see the point a getting a new manager in with completely new ideas if the squad we are left with have not been party to it during pre-season.

It feels like everyday the same threads appearing on incoming players who are free agents - Ings, Chaplin, McCarthy etc. How many more do we have sell, loan, bin off before we sign one of these free agents. It really does make you wonder how bad the financial situation really is.

Yeah I tend to agree with you, but also throw into the mix that on his last two loans, Alves has missed a fair chunk of the season through injury. I think it would be a little naïve to think he can play most games this coming season.

If they can get rid of Faes, VK and Okoli it will be worth £100m

Thought I heard it correctly when they called him sh1t

Akgun

Where does this figure come from - my understanding was the figure was €8m + bonuses, which he surely hasn't achieved.

Would still make him better than Ayew and Daka

I think they would fall into the forward category rather than defenders or midfielders and were bought or loaned as forwards - but you're correct it's a dreadful list.

Caranza, Edouard, Ayew, Richards - whilst the standard of loan and purchase is very low, we have invested in forwards over the last 2 seasons.

I'd like to see Nelson be rewarded with the captaincy after RM persuades him to sign a new contract. But unfortunately can see it being Vestergaard if he stays or Hamza.

Last time we were relegated to L1, we managed to keep some quality players who were all above L1 standard. Oakley, Fryatt, Gradel, Dyer, Howard to name a few. However, the financial state we are in at the moment makes me feel everyone is for sale. Be interesting to see who is left come 1st September. I hope Souttar is still here and potentially made captain.
