Is this Josh Knight if so he has gone to Portsmouth

Think it's a sign of a desperate journalist who sits uncomfortably with fan scrutiny - what normal person swears on their child's life about a transfer fee!?

Can hoof the ball up to Gueye all they want, the fella can't time his jumps properly and is more likely to elbow a defender in the face than connect with the ball.

Hoof...... You never know we might be able to start defending set pieces.

The only path we are heading is to League One 😭

Was this the latest installment of the never ending "Operation get restrictions removed?" I've lost track. Venkys probably slipped the judge a couple of grand to go away for the weekend to save on the alleged £25k per hearing legal fees. DISCLAIMER: That's a joke for the avoidance of any doubt.

Travis, Britain, Batth, Wiemann, Dolan, etc are not snakes. They've been managed out. Good work from the club though because snakes fits the narrative it's the players/manager's fault and deflects the attention away from the shit show.

The hope now has to be, now almost all the players who didn't want to play for the manager spreading bad vibes everywhere have been shipped out... This questionable manager has got the types of players in he wants to work with and it yields results. A win tomorrow with some good performances from the new boys will really lift spirits. There is a massive amount of pressure on Gestede because it's clearly his and his teams approach to a trading club of finding unproven European gems. If it fails... His career in the board rooms of football SHOULD be dead.

yeh, I'd seen that. Was hoping that the amazing members of the board might know a way 😊

Higher transfer fees? Wasn't it just over a million quid? The option to buy does protect us as we have a fix fee sorted so if we choose to make the deal permanent nothing other clubs can do about it.The players terms will also be agreed Him singing a new deal with the Swiss club protects them...Raya signed a new deal with Brentford before signing for Arsenal on loan

Ah so this is the new 'model' - fascinating to witness it unfolding before our eyes. Sell our captain, academy developed lynchpin and leader of the side, outstanding fitness record, to a league rival for an undervalue, then replace him with the loan signing of a bloke who has been in Switzerland with very serious fitness concerns. Sustainable? No. Sensible? No. A huge gamble? Yes. Please can those still oblivious to what is going on here wake up and smell the coffee. They're juggling the club's future and league status, playing games, earning %s and sending us on a very dangerous path.

I’ve not heard of this, can you explain what happened? Cheers

Nope, I didn’t foresee it being listed so quickly - lucky for them or I would have been furious 😁😁

Almost 100% he won't be here at the start of next season though. Then we're back to square one looking for a replacement.

Just sat here thinking ever since Travis has left (snake) Tronstad, Hyam or Cantwell are starting to feel snake like. Not sure why, it's just come over me. Is there any European 2nd divisioners we can replace them with? The snakes

Not that there is any credible link, but he's English anyway.

no one knows,though he dd play 70 minutes for yverdan in preseason,so he can`t be that injured

True. I was just wondering whether he could only get a one year visa (lack of English) and that’s why the loan with a view. I’m sure there are far more likely reasons though.

Still a Club "asset" irrespective of my opinion on him. I'd have said Dolan, Travis and Brittain were the extensions we really needed to see done but unsurprisingly all 3 gone. Tronstad and Hyam I'd be less worried about but I dont suppose we'll get those done either. As things stand we can't even persuade Hedges to sign a new deal. (Not that we want to but the point stands)

No Travis; Moussa is in, but will he be active/game ready? We ought to get a point, but I am already bracing up, in case of a disappointment.

Is Baradji genuinely injured or is that just a rumour?

Gueye top, Axel, Tavares, Beradji, Miller, Hyam, Mcgloughlin, Alebiosu, means Tronstad, Kargbo & Ribeiro will be the only players under 6ft 2... I hope that bloody counts for something.

It was posted earlier that tickets went off sale Thursday evening. No sales on the day.

So, fwiw they must REALLY like Baradji, to the point that they’ve obviously waived the injury issue but negotiated the deal down to mitigate the potential risk. Travis is replaceable, I hope this guy fits the bill (when fit). The winger from St Pauli must qualify with enough GBE points because we don’t have any esc slots left. Im really hoping we don’t lose any more of our key players and we get a couple of Prem forward loans after Baradji and the supposed winger 🤞🏽
