    Started at Pompey and spent time out of the academy system with boys clubs but did also play in Chelsea's youth ranks you're right

    According to that article, scans aren't a routine part of a medical anyway and only happen when there's evidence or history of a significant injury. I also read that it's quite common for the players medical to be done by the selling club, especially when buying from abroad.

    Tennai Watson signed for Charlton, which could mean that Dabo isn't getting a deal there?

    Entirely different team though isn't it. Different formation with 2 up top, a lot more possession and less counter attack. Our entire game plan has changed.

    - We could sign 3 midfielders today and they could all be injured by next week. We don't exactly excel at keeping players fit do we. - Eccles and Kelly were a big part of our success last season and in Eccles case he's only getting better the more he plays. - We may lack depth in defensive...

    Whilst I understand the point you're trying to make, which is valid and as you said comes from a place of kindness, it's not helpful to tell people with acute anxiety to "just relax". It doesn't work like that. There's also nothing unnatural about anxiety, it's essential for life, it's what...

    Every player is untested until they are tested. Robins has moved the likes of Andrews, Stretton, Obikwu & Eghosa into the first team squad because he thinks they are knocking on the door, he's not doing it just to be nice or for a laugh.

    Doug on CWR

    Think he answered pretty honestly, hoping to do one more but it's down to price. I think it's quite rare for an owner to be as candid as he is.

    Jack burroughs

    His stock has fallen very rapidly. Lincoln fans were absolutely creaming themselves when he signed. Carrying a knock maybe?

    Presume he will just stay to pad out the 21s. With Obikwu and Stretton being around the first team he will probably be needed to fulfill our PDL fixture committments.

    Thing is Da Silva won't have been completely free, he will have had a signing on fee and agents to pay etc. Likewise Bink's and Ayari will have commanded some sort of loan fee. Very difficult to guage what our actual spend has been.

    Chief Operating Officer

    1. Circumstances clearly changed during the course of that window and you can only deal with what's out in front of you 2. We have no idea what the original offer was from Blackburn, or what he finally went for, or anything that happened in-between.
