Gutted if, as looks likely, he goes. Amazing player but if price is correct, to squeeze £35m for two players in final years of contracts is great work. Last summer most would’ve happily sold the pair for 15m The fact is we had to sell both. They gave their all whilst here but deserved to play...

Still got the Doug king song and Hadji Wright Wright Wright

Agree he’s never a like for like replacement but as with Vik going, we’ll alter the shape of the team. You could have Eccles and sheaf sitting a bit deeper which gives freedom to the more attacking wingbacks, ohare (when fit)/palmer/sakamoto etc Some of Eccles passing/vision is better than he’s...

Yeah, they may as well have left him on loan but guessing they couldn’t risk it. Bound to be a bit rusty. He’ll be fine once he’s fully up to speed…just hope he can nick a couple in the meantime to get his confidence up

Agree with this. As a partnership they could have everything if they gel well…strength, pace, power. I’ve always been a big fan of Godden and he’ll get plenty of minutes still (maybe more from the bench once other two have bedded in properly). The Simms/Wright partnership ‘should’ be a proper...

Need some of the ‘skilled’ song writers to knock one up for Simms. Would be good for him to know that the Twitter lot are in the minority and he’s got the fans behind him

I can’t work out whether Greggs is on the wind up or not. If he is then it lost it’s amusement a while back (got enough bed wetters without pretend ones), if not so then as you say he needs to chill the fuck out

100% this. This lot class themselves as supporters ?! Digging out a 22 year old 1.5 games into his city career. Embarrassing

Steered clear of the obligatory meltdown. Annoying result yes but can’t get too upset, especially after seeing the post detailing our results in this competition over the years. Only annoyed I didn’t stick a few quid on Wimbledon ! Shortened pre season and all the changes have definitely had an...

As long as he’s been open and honest with the club and gives his all on the pitch, I’m not sure there’s much we can complain about. I presume he has told the club what he wants but we won’t want to disclose this as it might impact negotiations with potential buyers and/or we might be holding...

…or more SBT bickering

I don’t doubt that we’d miss hamer massively as an individual if he left but people are forgetting the fact that we should have a lot more pace/energy down the flanks, hopefully Ohare coming back soon and two strikers who will be a handful. We’ve also seen how Eccles has step up in a more...

Unless we buy a direct replacement I think you have sheaf and Eccles in centre and COH in a 10 with either Palmer/Sakamoto alongside him away from home/against stronger teams in a box or Simms and Wright up to top at home. I still think that’s strong but problems if either sheaf or Eccles get...

Have we got a song for the lad yet ? Heard one for Wright when he came on yesterday but not Simms

Kelly can do a job still as proven in last years run in but he’s never going to be a replacement for hamer, especially with palmer out in his feet. Left us with no legs in the middle.

Last two pens were belters !

Yeah, you’re obviously a decent caring man Pete. By all means do what you can but try not to let stuff outside of your control get you down

Idiotic

Yeah, with two up top that position needs energy and after a decent game he was knackered

That’s how I heard it. Also a ‘we still want him here so if you want to buy him you’ll have to pay top dollar’ message. If he’d sulked and/or we stuck him on bench we’d only get low ball offers. That message plus his performance should at least keep price higher. As a few have said, I’d accept a...
