Wow, really? If anything we released him 2 years sooner than we should have. His extra experience and nous would have been invaluable in the 2nd leg League Cup semi at West Ham, and would have probably helped see us through to our first Wembley final in 1981, and boy did he deserve to play for...

I'd feel more confident if this was anyone but you making this prediction. You never seem to be right!

This really rings of McSheffrey's move to Birmingham when they were trying to get him as cheaply as they could. Bruce was in the press for weeks before the deal went through moaning that we were standing in the players way and wouldn't sell for a fair price (their low valuation of course)...

There is still some considerable time until the window closes so I don't understand the urgency to sell our better players below their value to us. As pointed out the club might well make a strategic decision to review in January, rather than accept a low fee now anyway. If we did receive a late...

I thought MR stated last week that he was looking at bringing in 4 defensive minded players, so if so that leaves 2 still remaining. One could be as cover/ replacement for Fadz. If not I would have thought Hyam was the most likely to step into that role as Fadz starts to feature less.

Lets hope its Wood v Gyokeres 2nd game in then :)

This seems a pretty strange decision to me. Would love to know the criteria for it as it seems to be denying a city based business from operating, which I thought was the opposite of the purpose of hosting such an event. Are the hotel and casino also going to shut down?

........ but you don't know if 10-12m has been offered. It could be as likely that 3-5m is what has so far been offered. I think most of us would reluctantly accept if a sale is made for over 10m but anything less I would like to see us hold on. I don't necessarily buy into your point on...

Maybe Panzo will play tomorrow night. Will be nice to see what all the fuss has been about! If MR has truly had a long term interest in him, and with Forest getting promoted, now would seem a perfect time to sign him up.

Loan players will still cost us money. If we don't sell any of our 'big' players I would be quite happy with that. The better loan players are likely to only be avaialable closer to, or after the season starts so I can see a lot more bed wetting on here between now and then however :)

Based on last year's allocation we wouldn't be able to sell anymore at their place regardless, so in our case they would potentially lose money. They will only benefit if they expand their away end.

I would have been delighted if we had signed him!

If the release clause is £9.5m why would Fulham bother offering £15m?

Hasn't this been done to death? Sorry for being a killjoy but do people still find this amusing?

You have repeatedly stated this :)

I've no idea whether you are right on turnover or not. I guess if you are correct then we might indeed need to sell, however if that was the case I'm not quite sure why we bothered with new contacts for these players, losing the club more money in the process, if the intention was always to sell...

Sorry but in the big scale of things I don't see keeping the 3 for the time being is such a huge financial risk as played out, particularly if any potential sale price is in the £5m region. I accept it limits options of bringing in new players, but even so I still think as a team we are better...

I agree its a balancing act but I just don't buy into the argument that these players will all automatically lose their value in the next 12 months. They might, they might not. I just think the upside of keeping all 3 at the moment outweighs selling them. Of course, I accept if they become...

Some posters on here give the impression they are quite happy to lose Hamer and/ or Gyokeres for whatever fee the potential buying club see fit to offer us. Feels like I am in a minority thinking we should keep them unless someone offers us a ridiculous fee. I would rather we see where we are in...

Not so sure, they have paid out some silly money in the past!
