    What happened to this boatload of signings we were suggested to be announcing today??? Last minute impromptu holidays??? 
    It's 3pm
    Great time to get a good deal on Skyscanner, I hear you. Maybe we'll get the Golfie 12 next week if we keep stacking them up

    I don’t see Mitchell being released by Millwall, as in ‘if he is any good Millwall would keep him’ as any reason not to be very hopeful.
    I think Mitchell came through the ranks and maybe played a minor cup game for them. I suspect his progress at Millwall may have been slowed considerably because of the strength they already had in the area he played.
    I am hopeful this might be a Michael Turner (remember him?) kind of signing for us. He was a player who eventually moved on, not because he wasn’t a good player, but because at the time we thought we had better and couldn’t see a place opening up for him.
    Michael Turner went on to have an excellent career.
    Not being released we are paying a fee

    Gives Mitchell a bit more credibility then.

    So Alfie to go for £1.5M.

    Add to that the supposed £750K we bid for JCH in Jan still burning a hole in our pocket.

    Add to that the £1M we supposedly bid for Collins(?) in Jan still burning a hole in our pocket.

    Deduct the £50K we are meant to be paying for some Scottish LB and the £200K we are paying for Mitchell.

    Budget for rest of the window £3M plus whatever our generous billionaires are throwing in on top... Before we even think about a few £m from Gomez.  

    Suddenly our buying options are opening up.

    Exciting times.

    Seen on twitterverse that Cheltenham have a sell on fee on May, so not all of the £1 million ish will go to us. 

    Madness in my opinion to sell, MADNESS!!!!

    The fee would be closer to £100k than £1.5m

    Hasn't made his debut , been on loan for the past 3 years at Bromley,St Johnstone,Orient and Lincoln. 

    Probably says a lot about the standard of the CBs they have had ahead of him.

    No idea for Millwall. But Leyton mate said he was alright, apparently nickname was meathead.

    Or the standard of Mitchell himself. Don't forget Millwall were in a relegation battle just like us last season so their CB's couldn't have been that hot.

    If we get offered close to 1.5 million and that money is put back into the squad then I'd sell.

    He's almost 31, his value is at an all time high and the manager is not 100% keen on him.

    Only 12 months left on his contract as well (although we do have the option to extend that I believe)

    Mitchell is 22 and most of their fans that follow not just the first eleven think he’s a good prospect and are surprised he’s not in their plans.

    Don't forget what all those with West Ham mates said about Coventry & what a class act he was.

    If promotion rivals have got £1m to spend on a single player then maybe we should be taking that £1m off them to have any chance of building a squad that can compete.

    Nothing wrong with Coventry that a couple of decent CB's couldn't improve, last season the midfield was overrun far too easily because the defence was non existant at times...🙄

    Probably not but if they've already offered 800k then I can see them going to perhaps 1 million or 1.2

    It all boils down to whether Jones gets what he wants and manages to put together a team that can achieve something. What is noticeable is over the past few years we've signed players just because they'd done well somewhere else or had good stats but didn't necessarily suit how we were playing. As a result we end up relying on the transfers that work out well for that system to carry more than their share because the team overall doesn't work. We were kept alive by Alfie last season, along with contributions from CBT in the first part of the season. The year before that we were totally reliant on JRS to drag us through games and make relegation only a brief concern. Before that we desperately needed Stockley under Jackson, before that we were totally reliant on Aneke (and still are when things aren't going well). The last time we had good defenders, a coherent midfield and a good striker we went up. Under Powell in 11/12 we managed to set a points record despite our 20 goal striker going on a 12 match goalless streak because the setup was so good.
    Whether we keep May or not, I am looking forward to having a squad that the manager builds based on an overall profile that he needs rather than just the 'that one did goals. That one did tackles. Sign them up' technique we usually go for

    Where has the 800k figure come from?

    I shared info about Alfie May being dropped to the bench for the Bolton game which I got from a very close source 6 hours before kick off.

    I am seeing that source at 9am tomorrow, I’ll get as much as I can out of him.  

    Usual disclaimers - no I’m not lying, I’m not after likes, I’m not revealing the source, it won’t be shared bang on 9am probably an hour or so after.

    it’s so early in the window, we can stand our ground.
    if they really want him they’ll pay what’s necessary.

    So these people who say they'd snatch their hand off for 1.5 mil are they also happy staying in league one because if we get rid of Alfie that's exactly what will happen. Strikers that score twenty plus goals a season do not grow on trees plus you'd probably be giving a promotion position to Huddersfield to boot.
