The days where we sold players and got well scouted replacements are well gone. We are in the desperation league.DamoNorthStand said:
What an untried kid from the Caribbean youth leagues is a good replacement for the best midfielder on our books?harveys gardener said:That Downey kid looks an ideal replacement for Lookie if he goes. Can we play a trialist tomorrow?

Good luck to the new lad but it does feel like we really are in serious downsizing mode.
I appreciate that relegation comes with a cost and that it's much bigger these days with the TV and solidarity money than in, say, 1972 when we lost Paul Went and Ray Treacy (but gained Arthur Horsfield). Duchatelet, however, seems to be totally incapable of retaining any player for whom a bid is made. Holmes-Dennis last week, probably Lookman by Wednesday and no doubt he's penciling in a figure for Konsa for next January or June 2017.
Duchatelet has to go or this club is going to continue to wither on the vine and shrink year-on-year.16 -
I reallly think chicksen might ruffle a few feathers at this level and whats more we havent had to "lay" out a load of money for him. He might not be first choice in the pecking order , what else can could we cockadoodledo this late in the window.9

THD didn't want to stay, and seemingly RS didn't rate him, as he barely played for us this month. On that basis I've no problem with them taking the money.Blucher said:Good luck to the new lad but it does feel like we really are in serious downsizing mode.

Lookman is a different situation
You can't compare now with 1972 though, the money is vastly greater now, agents are everywhere, and players have so much power, especially being able to leave for nothing at the end of contracts. It's much harder to keep hold of players2 -
Ironic that arriving home tonight from a Bank Holiday BBQ with friends locally, our daughter's family discovered that 2 of their 4 hens had been slaughtered by Mr Tod ...CH4RLTON said:I reallly think chicksen might ruffle a few feathers at this level and whats more we havent had to "lay" out a load of money for him.

Reported to be £13m. Why anybody would want to play under Tony Pulis is beyond me.killerandflash said:West Brom have signed Nacer Chadli from, Spurs. Always thought he was a decent player. Can't see them wanting Lookman as well...
Undisclosed fee of course0 -

This signing is going to cause division in our squad.
What happens when Slade has Fox, Chicksen and a bag of grain and has to transport them to an island, on a boat, one at a time?26 -

Very good player . Hope it's truedickplumb said:Apparently we are close to signing Adam Chicksen , a left back . #cafc

I've seen Chicksen quite a few times and he's s much better player than Fox . Exciting going forward and a tough tackler.
I would be surprised if he came to us as big things were expected of him.2 -

If so how come he hasn't got a club before now and can't nail down a first team spot anywhere?Bedsaddick said:

A Brighton fan I know doesn't really rate him and it sounds like they have plenty of other options that can play at left back.Bedsaddick said:I've seen Chicksen quite a few times and he's s much better player than Fox . Exciting going forward and a tough tackler.

Just jumped the last 122 pages and feel guilt
I'm told he is signing / signed. Seems like a player that showed potential when breaking through at MK but hasn't delivered it since then.Bedsaddick said:I've seen Chicksen quite a few times and he's s much better player than Fox . Exciting going forward and a tough tackler.
