    Do we know he’s a fan or are we just assuming because he once wore a shirt on Instagram that was probably gifted to him by one of our players?
    As others have said - he can afford gym clobber.  it just happens to be the shirt of his club's rival.  imagine if one of our current players was spotted in a Millwall shirt in the gym.  And anyway, even if hes not a fan it looked good on him so he should sample he real thing
    Footballers wear random/old gear all the time. Kanu was training in his academy training kit this week. “He can afford gym clobber” isn’t an explanation and just shows we’re guessing. Guessing is fine but it’s being treated as an established reason he’d want to come here

    Makes a lot of sense and pretty much what we’ve all identified as the issue positions. If they’re all a step up in quality (and I’d assume they would be), 8 signings works for me. Quality not quantity and all that

    How many permanent and How many loans I wonder if that's true.

    "Told we’re only looking at a lcb, 3 wingbacks 3 midfielders and 1 striker this window"

    Let the melt down begin

    "Only 8 players? We need 11!!!"

    "We're going down"

    "Jones out, one striker isn't enough"

    "We have 7k empty seats. Why don't we cut ticket prices?  We'll sell more beer so that will fund all the transfers"

    The wingbacks are surely a definite thing as without reinforcement we only have Edwards, Asiimwe and maybe Ramsay as "natural" WBs, one of which is coming back from injury, one who had a decent not great season in L1 last time out and the last one can be brilliant or awful in equal measure.

    Yeah... Sounds about right...
    LCB = Upgrade on Gillesphey or Bell even drops to backup
    3-Wing Back = Duh, we've only got Edwards at the moment, and Campbell at a push
    3-Midfielders = Okay thats Coventry / Docherty now backup you'd potentially hope
    1-Striker = Again makes sense if we're going to struggle to get Godden and / or Dykes to renew
    Especially with the latter we dont necessarily need Strikers, we need to be able to create more chances for those we've got

    “When are they going to fix the hand dryers”
    ”staff don’t know what they are doing”
    ”served flat beer”
    ”don’t like the new screen”
    “Jones won’t enter the loan market”

    I might be completely wrong but I feel this is much less likely to be our recruitment stategy being leaked to a podcast, and much more likely the podcast looking at our squad and the obvious gaps and saying they’ve been told that’s where we are looking so they can appear to look ITK

    There are hardly any leaks these days from us, so I very much doubt they have a credible source leaking them info

    Yes, 8 is a decent number of players,  considering we're talking first teamers, and the number of players we currently have. 
    It's not 8. It's only 8.

    Essentially an upgrade on Gillesphey, a replacement for Fevrier, a replacement for Chambers, a replacement for Clarke, a replacement for Coady, an upgrade on Anderson, a replacement for Berry, a replacement for Dykes. 

    Expect to see Gillesphey, Mitchell, Anderson, Asiimwe, Kanu and a couple of others leave in some capacity, and maybe we manage to sell a player to raise some of the funds.
