I was going to say Carter. He'd certainly command the higher price. But the ranks are getting thin!

anybody asking Waggot the question "how much of the Sammi money will we see?" My guess----- £1M for a goalkeeper.

Well me for a start! Those 2 lads look promising but I bet they don't score as many together as Sammi scored on his own. He is the real deal! Can't go on keep weakening the team and endlessly rebuilding. Only ends up one way. As soon as we have anyone any good they are off. Its totally dispiriting. Carter next I predict.

Couldn't happen to a nicer club!

Mowbray should have taken us up. I'll never forgive him. After the promotion from Div1 he just trod water. Had no ambition. Venkys were spending then.

Eustace is doing a reasonable job. We looked certain to be relegated when he arrived. Gotta give him a chance. Anyone with these owners is pushing water uphill.

At least he puts himself about a bit and the defenders know they've been in a game. Seems years since we had any presence up front at all. Mowbray and his "false nine" and all that crap.

Its a change anyway!

Or they to work out why we signed Markanday!

I never said the crowd had turned and I know what a Message Board is. I'm not mixing anything up as you'll see if you read my post properly and note the "if".

Agree on that. But its not his fault he's picked is it? If the crowd turn on him he"ll be worse and we still won't have a replacement.

I'd accept £10m for Sammi--no less. If Ipswich won't pay that then they can struggle for goals. They won't find anyone better for that money,

I'm not a Pears fan and I believe we must strengthen there but criticism of him in this game is over the top imo. He wasn't responsible for either goal and he made a fantastic save at a vital point in the game when he kept out that inswinging corner and the scramble afterwards, Never seen a corner deviate that much. The one that clipped the top of the bar looked bad but it dropped dramatically and, in the end, he did make the right judgement----though only just. Fine margins! The problem is I'm always waiting for a howler from him and that's why we need a replacement to restore confidence in the defence. But till then, we should get off his back and look at where the defence was for 2 very basic goals.

He did alright yesterday!

Leeds hit the woodwork 3 times in the first 6 minutes! Now 1-0 up with a pen.

That'll be 30 games then.

I haven't read earlier posts on the game so sorry if I'm repeating others but wasn't that a great performance from Travis? Vital part in the first 2 goals and drove forward to great effect. I hope those in charge make peace with him and he stays. We won't recruit better. Gueye showed some nice touches to give me faith he might hold his place, would have liked some goal attempts though. And Yuki put himself about and showed real cool to chip the keeper for his goal. Early days and injuries might hit our squad hard but I'm already feeling more optimistic. At least we appear to be competitive and the team has a "together vibe" about it.

That's a low bar from which to judge the team Chaddy! Meaningless really.

But we had Adam then and weren't about to lose Sammi. I'm expecting the quality of the squad to be lower than at this time last year which means relegation probably.

Shameful.

He's a strange one Pears. When the chips were down at Leeds away he was great!

Or that we were never serious in the first place?

Yes, exactly what I was thinking. If Venkys win their court case they will once again have the right to underfund us and lead us into League One..

I predict a 1-2 loss.

Got to agree. They'll talk forever but nothing will come of it. Nothing good anyway. Got to pressure them to sell. I'd advocate an empty stadium but we've been here before.
