  • I Swear when you make signings you juggle a few at a time incase things change or go wrong

    we never seem to learn and focus all our energy into one and when it goes tits up late we have no fall back🤬

    Sandgaard’s next trip to the Valley should be interesting. His modus operandi is very much out there now.
  • Just want to check up on them people who got on peoples back for not being happy with all the out goings ? Deadwood or not, you do not have hector not having played in over 6 months, inniss a complete calamity and Thomas who is utter garbage as the only options at centre back.

    So what was the point of all that other than cutting costs for costs sake?

    How's Thomas adequate cover? He's either injured or not match fit. Christ, it's like saying don't worry because we can always get Holden back on the pitch and Browny looked spritely on Charlton TV the other day so he'll do.

    In non Charlton news Forest have signed Keylor Navas on loan, which is mental
    The fact that Henderson gave that sulky interview about being second choice at United only to be second choice at Forest instead now is pretty funny though.
  • so, we kept Thomas who hasn't played much at all this season & let EOC & Lavell to leave.

    makes sense  :(
    We've chosen to keep the free transfer on zero money over players that can actually compete in League One. 

    Backwards thinking from a management team that don't have a clue. 

    Andy Scott walks off with his commission though so it's all fine. 
    Thomas has played more games at league 1 than lavelle and I have no issue keeping Thomas over him.

    o'connell, I agree

    I will be amazed if he ever shows up again. His ego couldn't bear the criticism he knows he would get

    I’ve no issue with any of the players going, bar O’Connell.  None have really added anything this season and have been taking up places and wages and offering next to nothing in return. 

    Hector and Kilkenny could be good, but there’s a lot riding on two players there who have little to no  game time this season. Ness has been a revelation and I would have dropped Inniss this week for EOC. At least with none of our midfield going, we can work Kilkenny in gently if needed.  By all accounts a decent player and I’d like to see him, Dobbo & Fraser as the preferred three. 

    We’ve just offloaded a significant chunk of our wage bill and replaced with loans and 6 month contracts. Personally, I’d use that to tie down Dobson, Leaburn & Ness to decent contracts.  

    Everything set up for a new owner to start afresh, but I won’t be holding my breath.

    Where are all the bed wetters now that it turns out Dobson and Leaburn haven't been sold after all...
    Wondering where all the other players have gone. 
    All of whom (apart from EOC) were surplus to requirements, unfancied by fans and management alike, and big earners
    Citation needed. 

    Our bench is filled now with players that haven't played in multiple years or kids. Depth, what depth? 
    AMB
    Sess Inniss Ness Penney
    Kilkenny Dobson Fraser
    Rak-Sakyi Leaburn CBT

    Subs - Wollacott, Clare, Hector, Morgan, Payne, Bonne, Aneke

    Plus Kane, Thomas, Henry, Campbell and Kanu. Nowhere near as bad as you're making out. 

    We're an attacking player light that's for sure. Getting rid of DJ and Kirk without replacing one of them is poor. Obviously was the intention with Edwards but shouldn't be getting rid of DJ if it's fallen through.

    Wollacott Maynard-Brewer
    Egbo Kane
    Inniss Hector
    Ness Thomas
    Sessegnon Penney
    Dobson Clare
    Morgan Henry
    Fraser Kilkenny
    Rak-Sakyi Payne
    Leaburn Bonne
    Blackett-Taylor Campbell

    Aneke as the wildcard

    Doesn't look much worse than the start of the window, and more balanced too. 

    Main issue now is injuries

    If you lot lose the plot over Lavelle and Thomas going, you need your bumps read. I get the feeling over O'Connell but those two are shit. 
    But we need a squad. Currently leaves us with Inniss, Ness and a crocked Hector.
    Is Hector crocked?
    Evidently he’s been training with Chef Wendy for quite a while and for the last two or three days with us, reported to be in tip top condition.
    Doesn’t sound like he’s crocked to me…..unless you know otherwise that is?
    Apparently he didn't complete his medical with Sheff Wed, who he had been training with this season

    He hasn't played at all this season

    That doesn't scream "match fit" to me.  
    But doesn’t mean he’s crocked, you’re just being your usual negative self.🙄🙄🙄
    If Hector plays before the start of March I'll eat my hat.

    If he actually makes it through 60 mins before Easter I'll eat 2 hats. 
    Golfie says if Hector plays before March, he'll eat his hat.

    Shall we hold him to that? Just need a volunteer to video it. :smile:

    Pretty sure TS will have factored in the savings on kits can be used to put on lights in the changing rooms. Still on the tap water though.

    We don’t. We also have Ness.

    Obviously it's a bit sad to lose EOC as he's class, but everyone else who's left wasn't wanted, and the ones we've brought in either have pedigree or at least got signed by Ipswich in recent years

    currently not fit

    can you start again with players who are currently fit & ready to play 90 mins.
  • Think we're an experienced winger light. CBT has had his fitness issues and only viable replacement is Campbell. Shocking to let DJ go(if it happens) without signing a replacement

    So Innis and Ness left. What happens when Innis is next suspended or injured? Clare at CB? Where’s Elewere? 
    Thomas still there .. Mitchell who was unlucky to lose his place .. Hector very good signing 
    Mitchell didn’t have a place.

    Harness, Henry and Campbell in for them then.

    Wasn't hard was it?
