If he starts Sheaf it's because he thinks he is our best option for the role surely? 5 subs and a long season others will get their chance to shine.

We reached the FA cup semi and playoff final those runs alone are worth millions. I agree King is speculating knowing full well be have assests on our books that could balance the finances if we needed to.

We are three signings from being very useful. Need to create space with Collins, Bidwell and possibly Allen or Eccles or BTA, spme of who would command a decent sum. We could then bring in a ST, RAM and an experienced CB.

With confidence and on the top of their game, we have a strong set of forwards, but consistency has been lacking with them all.

Agree, need to keep him, but a loan wfor 6 months would make a lot of sense. Loan to league 1 or a European team and I think Bassette scores on a regular basis and that could be transformative for his development. Getting cameos for us is not the right situation for him.

We ideally need 30+ goals from Simms, Wright, BTA, it's possible but it's an area of the pitch I would like to see strengthened if we want to be in and around the top of the league table all season.

Signed a goalkeeper also.

Would like the deal if it's 10m assuming we promote otherwise its null and void and we pay the loan fee only.

Hope someone is preparing to tender for the sound system too!

I my view Frank's legendary status at Chelsea carries weight regardless of who's currently in charge. 211 goals and three Premier League titles don't just disappear because there's new ownership. That kind of institutional respect still matters in football, even if it's not some dramatic inside...

That's quite a strong reaction to what I thought was a fairly straightforward observation! I wasn't suggesting anything groundbreaking - just that having someone with existing relationships at a club can sometimes open doors for loan deals. It happens all the time in football. But fair enough if...

Chelsea, have some very talented players, the Lampard connection could help us get one or two more in on loan.

If we pay 50% of his wages surely he will find a move.

Solid signing and pleased to see doug use the loan market. Surely we will get someone from Chelsea on loan too, they have a huge squad and hopefully frank and the assistant who also coached at Chelsea can persuade a wonder kid or two to come and be part of the promotion push.

Better than nothing

I am away in Spain, any idea if it will be live ifollow etc

Would not say its the last position given our only goalkeeper who would not be a liability in a key position is injured for a 3rd of the season! However, agree a loan would be preferable.

I hope the club will do something for home fans during the season like bring a friend for £30 vouchers for season ticket holders. This will allow a number of home fans with season tickets to shelter friends from the price increases.

Would really like to see some outward sales at this point. Collins Wilson Eccles (for a decent fee) Bidwell BTA (for a decent fee) Lati (for a fee) Rafael (loan or sale) If we could bring in 8 million + saved wages from the above and reinvest in a GK, CB and a couple of Chelsa loan...

How do you define backwards in the context of our summer so far?
