Yes indeed, this activity we’d be extremely happy at this being done at the open of the window. But it’s being cut fine and we can’t trust they’ll even reinvest. Time will tell but it’s the hope that kills you.
CrazyKopCorner Posted 22 August 2025 Posted 22 August 2025 Just make sure here are no appearance add ons - purely dosh up front and get the peddle down on the Ford Transit out of there after dropping the dope off
Donwebbio Posted 22 August 2025 Posted 22 August 2025 Kristiansen is proper crap isn't he? I don't know what we weere thinking with that signing. £17M for a downgrade on Luke Thomas. The mould for modern full backs is pace, dynamism, big engine, ability to cross the ball, ability to defend 1v1. He has very little of that going on and is about as slow as two mating turtles. 3

Popular Post CornwallFox Posted 22 August 2025 Popular Post Posted 22 August 2025 Tbh I'm more interested in us selling players we don't want them I am in worrying about whether we replace them. If we have to have a season of playing youth players and not being very good, then so be it. 7

Prefer him to thomas, which isnt saying much as they are both poor
coolhandfox Posted 22 August 2025 Posted 22 August 2025 Not a chance this guy is injured, just wants out. 2
Tuna Posted 22 August 2025 Posted 22 August 2025 He's so basic for the money we spent. Is he that much better than Thomas?

Jimmy Posted 22 August 2025 Posted 22 August 2025 Just now, HankMarvin said: He asked to leave on on loan as he didn’t want to be a left sided cb Because he wanted to play as a full back, not that he didn't want to play in the championship which was the implementation

Danny280995 Posted 22 August 2025 Posted 22 August 2025 Looks like we're re setting ourselves, probably several or more seasons in championship till we're ready i reckon to go back up

We desperately need to trim the squad and we’re getting rid of the players that we should be getting rid of. How is that preparing for several seasons in the Championship? 3

Could end up stuck here for 10+ years or even drop down to League 1 for a season or two. I agree with selling most of these players, but we are still left with some absolute rubbish and have only signed a 38 year old GK. 1
Lesta2014 Posted 22 August 2025 Posted 22 August 2025 Don’t see him going when marti says he’s a few weeks away from being fit.
