Full replay confirmed.

Finishing the match behind closed doors is the simple solution. Just play the final 15. No fans, but both teams can stream the game. Both teams can pick a brand new starting team, same players don’t need to be picked etc. Ofc Ipswich start with 10. Can anyone find the issue with that?

Bit harsh on Danny Graham haha.

He scored 19 and had 5 assists in the season before (23-24). Albeit in the Dutch 2nd division.

Alan Browne linked by Nixon. Would be a heck of a signing that - significant champ experience.

My understanding is that Morishita played on the wing last season. Scored 14 goals last year and is meant to be rapid. So that should be the pacey winger locked down. EJ has just confirmed that we are looking at another midfielder and hopefully a striker. If we get all 3, and sell Buckley, Pears and Travis (sadly) for good fees then that would conclude a suprisingly very strong window under the circumstances (self inflicted).

The Morishita deal seems to good to be true… Waiting for Jackson to confirm/squash it but as it is bank holiday I don’t feel we will have an update until tomorrow.

I took abit of a battering yesterday on the transfer page for saying things weren’t as bad as people were making out. Today doesn’t prove me right. But I do genuinely think that VI is building something - I’m not sure how it will turn out but there is clearly a strategy and profile and I’m looking forward to seeing how it will come together. In general I’ve liked what I’ve seen of the new signings. Really don’t think we’ll be in the relegation mix - midtable looks a certainty. Onwards and upwards!

Rudy Gestede lol

Things are far from ideal. Venkys are a mess. However this board is abit overboard with the meltdown. Travis has been offered a better deal somewhere else. As bad as it is, we can’t match it and have to get a fee. We haven’t got a choice. As a replacement we’ve signed our number 1 target. Concerns over fitness so we’ve done a loan with option to buy. That is sensible business. Less risk for the club. Loan with options to buy is the optimal way to do business. I don’t back the board. But I like VI and I can see the teams he’s trying to build. It’s going to take time and I hope us fan will have the patience to see it come through - as frustrating as the last few weeks have been. I just feel we are abit reactionary. WestBrom we weren’t great, but it was a very even game and we had a pen not given. Birmingham we should have won - it was a good performance. Bradford was admittedly a shocker but it happens. Our club is a mess. We deserve better. But we don’t need to find the negatives in every single thing. As much as it is a buzzword, we are in transition ATM, I will be judging the team and window over September/October when things take shape

Toth Miller - Hyam -Mcloughlin Alebiosu - Taveres - Tronstad - DeNeve Cantwell Ohashi - Kargbo/Gueye

I’ll be honest. At this point I think we should take the money for Travis and move on. I love Travis, and by no means want him to leave. But at the same time, he clearly does want to go, isn’t going to sign a new contract and isn’t bought into what VI is trying to do. Unlike many, I can see a strategy to what VI is building, and while I think we may suffer in the short term, we need to accept that this year will be transitional for us. For that to be successful we do need players bought into the long term plan. ATM that doesn’t seem to be Travis and it may be better culturally for the club to take a fee and move on. I really struggle to see how we can keep a captain who doesn’t want to be here.

If we had got that Kapaudi lad from Leiga I would actually say our business has been pretty spot on. I think we’re a top end (in relativity) CB and RW from a decent season. Truthfully Carter is our only CB I really rate and he’s always injured…

Apologies I misread. 6 goals and 6 assists.

Miyoshi would be an excellent signing. 12 goals in the championship the season Birmingham were relegated. Quick and good feet - would certainly give us abit of xfactor in the final 3rd. He’s also not a passenger. Great in the press and works hard.
