If players want to leave sell them as none have done any good so far. Was Godden even playing last night.Vik wasn't much better.

I see Jack Stephens has gone on loan from Southampton to Bournemouth. A few years older now, he could have filled the experienced role we need in the CBs

I've been thinking about this recently. Lots of comments such as 'disheartening', 'depressing' etc. Now, I love CCFC but not to the point where it's affects my mood as much as that. I get annoyed when we lose and love it when we win.

Maybe I'm not as much of a fan as others.

I just think there's more important things in life to worry about rather than worrying if we bring someone in or not to replace Hyam. Worry about the things you can control in life.

Maybe it's just me, but I think Bill Shankley was wrong. **Shrugs Shoulders emoji**

I think there is a lot of shit in the world at the moment and for a lot of people football is a big (even only) outlet.

When you know your main source of enjoyment is actually deciding to become less enjoyable and possibly even unenjoyable it's going to take a hit.

People with mental health problems are particularly affected.

It brings me down and I have a good relationship, friendships a fulfilling job etc.

I'm not sure they've said that and if we did sell one and reinvest in 2-3 decent additions I'd be ok with that. I'd be concerned if we sell and dont replace.

Yeah don’t think we stood much chance being skint, currently bottom of the league and up routing himself compared to a premier league team on his doorstep.

What a coup that would be, getting another loan in with 0 first team experience. Brilliant.

Be a good signing if Southampton pay the first £25k of his weekly wage.

Agreed.

But, they've spent £1.7m on players this summer (before this £500k bid). Ed Sheeran must be chucking them money as they've been stuck in L1 for a while now.

Makes no difference as teams In our league ( blackburn ) get far less at home yet still pay much more for players , it's the owners

I am not watching but I am going to assume it's Nicki Bandini. She is on the Guardian pod and is great. Very knowledgeable especially about Italian football. That said, her hair is awful.

Yeah you can leave if you want. If you are getting that angry about people discussing rumours why come on here and look at the deadline day thread? Sit on the official page mate

Quality player. In my most optimistic mind I wondered if we could get him if Ohare left…not at that price obviously

Forest have bought a whole squads worth of players 20+. Crazy

To be honest Blackpool have done well to get that.

Last year of his contract and they're really in no position to be letting it run down.

Apparently he's on 60k a week. Approaching Doyle levels there.

Of course it is our owners. But Ipswich are quite capable of paying £500,000 on a player. I am not going to be amazed.

Plus we don't know how Blackpool is financially. They may be in the same position as us and need to sell assets at any cost before the transfer window closes to survive.
