It's embarrassing that this still needs explaining to people. This has been going on for how many years now?

De Neve signed as a winger (where he played mostly for his last club) who can also play wing back. Anyhow, the key point is, if he hasn't been signed as Weimann's direct replacement, we have neither replaced Batth nor Weimann yet and bear in mind Batth was an outstanding performer for us last season and Weimann had excellent impact and delivered when we needed it with both goals and assists. Age is irrelevant - it's the quality and ability to perform - Cowans, Moran, Gale etc and presently for other clubs Messi (38), Ronaldo (40), Modric (39) etc

.

Pickering is a good pro but a squad player at best. If you can get a half decent fee, he's worth moving on IMO.

No.

'We will respect Jack Walkers' legacy ' Not for one minute!

It won't go to transfers, just into their pot and disappear.

Am I missing obvious sarcasm? People don't actually think that X clip is a footballer arriving do they 🤣 nevermind Pickering.

Usyk. Not much you can do against that relentless jab.

My Bloody Valentine - Soon

Not being allowed back into England? Sounds like a dream come true.

Saw something over here on me phone.news.thingies. Spurs want Wharton and Place want 100 Million. Send that news to Venkies. Came on here expecting this thread in meltdown but not even a mention. Reason to doubt the news source?

More likely to be Harry Leonard than Harry Pickering.

We didn't release them. We lost them.

Reality setting in for the lad. Too bad. Agents doin? Who knows. I think he expected to be having to knock teams off with a stick. Might end up begging a bit.

That lopsided BS needs fixed. I do not even know if it benefits Prem clubs since most of these young uns end up nowhere near the limelight. It needs fixed, I think, because as it stands it hurts smaller clubs and young players.

The coalition consists of people who have been involved in fighting for the cause, many times. I personally believe that, without certain people, this club, would either be gone already, or certainly a whole lot lower than we currently are. When you look back and realise what desperate attempts, certain people involved at the very beginning did, it shows how dangerous they were. Threats to lives, physical attacks even attempts at paying people off, who were protesting were made, not to mention, trying to discredit people by crying to the media. I personally believe that some of these chancers, still exists, but as a result of the efforts made both in the past and now, the chances of them succeeding are less and I definitely have more hope than I otherwise would have, that they will eventually be driven out.

😂😂😂😂😂 got a pope like reception

That would be funny. There's no way that Pickering is an Ismael type player so not surprised if he's off. I'd say league one is his level.

Surely not? I hope this isn’t true.

Blimey they were never retained in my psychic RAM

That's an incredible call if true - it's not on Twitter or the Plymouth fans board.

You are the one that suggested that Ismael would be happy going into the season with Alebiosu and Montgomery as right backs. Therefore, surely if we had Brittain aswell, that would be too many? I have made it very clear that it is imperative that Brittain is replaced by a first team right back when he goes. If Ismael is "happy" with just the 2 including a rookie midfielder filling in, then more fool him. But I suspect he is not. Considering he isnt blind and knows how good Brittain is, I am confident that he is aware that when he goes, we need a replacement.

I believe Pickering has gone to Plymouth Argyle this evening in a bid to compete as their starting LB in L1 this season
