I meant it's a step in the right direction of the type of players we are signing.
Yes, it's a shame it's taken this long for RD/KM to realise and action. And of course, I sympathise with everyone affected at the club! Not disputing that.
I reiterate I'm not happy with our current predicament, just like everyone else. But I want to concentrate on backing the team, again, like everyone else.
Wonder if the Lookman deal could involve a loan back. That seems to be what most clubs negotiate on the kind of player - problem is most clubs don't have Katrien Meire doing the negotiating.
If Gudmundsson Cousins, Pope, Igor and any of Watt, Bauer and Tex are let go we're going to need a huge summer of recruitment and more than Holmes and Novak. Past experiences don't suggest Katrien Meire is up to the task or that Roland Duchatelet is willing to fund it.
If Vetokele HAS gone I wouldn't actually be too upset if I am honest. Him going presumably allows for the wages of the incomings and with his fitness record he'd be unlikely to actually tear up League One. The Igor we first saw would be a massive loss, the Igor we've currently got... not so much.
I want to be the first to say Lee Novak is the new Andy Hunt
"Lee is a real team player, will run and stretch teams, and help us to link our play. He’ll be a real pest to centre-halves and won’t give them a minute’s peace, and that is exactly what we want. All-round Lee will be a really good signing for us"
Well that's two of the three "promised" players. I suppose the most exciting of the three is Ajose so let's hope that's as done a deal as has been suggested.
I am not sure that's true about players not mentioning CEO's when thanking people in the past when signing and I can't see what she would gain telling players to thank her in their first interviews, because as is being said now no one believes it. She probably does come across very well during meetings with players, sponsors, etc. Doesn't mean I like her at all because I don't trust her.
Anyhoo this is a rumours thread not another attack KM thread.
Vetokele going I don't see as a bad thing. If he was still on form we probably wouldn't have gone down because we would have had a decent goalscorer. He's not been the same since injury. If we manage to get some cash and free up his wages I wish him luck.
Every time I read this thread, I find myself only being partially interested. Whether Holmes, Novak and Ajose (if he comes) are any good or end up being injured for 6 months, I don't know - only time will tell. I'm far more interested about rumours of what is happening to our current squad. If the best 8 all leave and freebies come in, we will be looking at bottom half of League 1.

I think he's Mandy.
The subject of speculation since the end of a season in which he scored 125 goals in the third tier, Ajose looks certain to move to South London.
