I'm not defending RD here, but............................................
I rate AD massively I think he's a cracking player but if he's not going to sign a new deal and leave then we should look to replace now.
Replace with someone who will accept the wages that AD was on, isn't going to be much of a replacement at all. RD weakens our squad once more and Bowyer, JJ & Gallen are left again to bail him out. Inevitably, this process will lead to all their good work being wasted.
So no "but" needed, there are no positives to be gained from this sale.
Night-Miere must be loving this. We really are seeing the Premier League stars of the future. For about 5 minutes. Thanks 🙏 oh glorious leader for delivering on this promise.
Players going befor get replacements in has got to stop after this window we’re like Charlton boot sale had enough now 6 in befor 5 on Thursday I doubt it very much fuck off you rat Roland.
only other RB's i can see us signing on a free would be Jordan Spence and Connor Randall. Neither are players i would want us to sign if we had a "proper" transfer budget, but realistically those, along with Thompson etc are the only ones we are likely to get.
fans always hope-- its what we do (outside the mega bucks shit) we are all hoping that maybe THIS time Roland will actually give the manager the money--THIS TIME.
But we all know it will be groundhog transfer day with Roland--- no extra money will be given to the manager. I know it was said peeps should not wish ill to Roland but feck that i hope the fec ker gets run over by a big 4 wheeled muck spreader and as his gasps his last it dumps 2 tons of shit on him. The man is an utter twunt
I'm not defending RD here, but didn't LB say he is not going to let another Aribo situation happen so it seems we have offered a deal, he didn't want to sign it and he's been told he can go now?
Don't agree with it, however, I think LB was massively pissed off about the Aribo situation so maybe that has an effect on this.

Wondering the same
Wouldnt be susprised if Bowyer has shot himself in the foot and that Anfernee's Agent has been hunting for a new club the moment that comment got made
Hopefully we can find a younger version of Lawrie Wilson in the coming days who has that versatility to play both RB and in Midfield
I doubt very much that his agent wasnt courting other clubs well before Bow made that comment.
Just another sickener that any talent we bring through gets moved on for peanuts (Lookman the exception) and we have to rebuild yet again.
Still, Roland still has a few more days to cash in on Taylor!

Cafc didn't get the lookman fee or sell on. Roland trousered it.
Bowyer wants five players, so perhaps Roland will give him the 2 million to strengthen the squad.
Oh, and pigs might fly 😔
have a word with yourself, there's no humour to be had from the twunt's cynical persistent dismantling of everything LB et al have achieved. the transfer fee, however small, disappears straight into the twunt's shady conglomerate and LB has to cobble together his squad within the shrunken budget, he'll only get more than one player if a) the transfer's free AND b) the combined wages are lower than the uncompetitive package AD is leaving behind. The only surprise here is that the wretched old loser has done the paperwork 3 days ahead of the deadline, he's still sold LB down the river and laughed at him while doing so.

Agree to an extent, however seeing as we all know LB won't see a penny of any fee, what does it matter if we see another Aribo situation whereby a player leaves for free, as opposed to us selling him a year earlier and receiving a fee that goes straight into Roland's back pocket?
Roland's looking forward to £6-7M losses in League One again next season. The timing if Dijksteel goes only as few months different to Karlan in Jan and the same excuse about contract ending will be given.

No, that won't happen until January.
Assuming he doesn't sign a new contract, he will only have 6 months left on his contract in January. Huddersfield come in and offer £1.5m and faced with losing him for nothing a few months later, Roland will snatch their hand off and take the money. Again.

Given that Bowyer knows he probably won't see a penny of any transfer fee, surely he wouldn't care whether AD signed a new deal or not?
In his position it's either keep Dijksteel for a year and then he leaves on the cheap next summer, or we sell now and he has to try and find a replacement for free/next to nothing. I know what i'd rather do if i was Bowyer.
I can only assume that Dijksteel openly expressed a desire to leave and it would've affected his and the teams morale had he stayed.

but earlier in the summer Bowyer did say he wanted to avoid another 'Aribo' situation with Djiksteel and intimated that if he wasn't going to sign a new contract it may be better if he left now. Why he would say that I don't know as surely he knows by now that he is not going to see a penny of the fee so why not just keep him until his contract ends and let him walk for nothing? At least we'd have him in the team for another season.
To be honest Bowyer and his coaching staff plus the few players have got left are the only reason I renewed my season ticket this year. Protests need to step up now.
The fee for Dijksteel, not a penny of which will be given to Bowyer, will probably mean that Duchatelet will break even in 2019/20.
And if he can do it this year, and Bowyer keeps us up, Duchatelet will play exactly the same game next year.
It's blindingly obvious. We don't want to see it because we are thinking as emotional fans. But look at it with your head, not your heart.
Until Roland lowers the price he wants for the Club if he can keep it ticking over, making a few quid, selling a player here or there to do so then we could be stuck with him for a few years yet I agree.

Thanks Roland. @blackpool72 can say the rest.

Time to get hold of Murrsy & hold his toes to the fire.
(For the record)

FUCK OFF!
What is Roland’s fault is no
money is reinvested and the contract offer is probably shit anyway.
