The timing is poor but surely this is our business model? Buy players to develop whilst also improving us and then sell for a profit. How else do we survive without selling players?

He’s been a great pro and great business by us. Need the next one now and then rinse / repeat.

Think some people have unrealistic expectations of what / where we are as a club that doesn’t even own its own ground.

Judging by Panzo looking down I'd say we're bringing back Leon Barnett or Reece Brown on loan

Who actually sells players, not Sepalla personally so it has to be Boddy, does he have too if he didn’t could that enhance the end of sisu here.

I worry now for our season. The sale looks desperate to pay this months running costs.
I expect the club thought that 4 home matches in August would have covered those costs.
However, I expect another player to be sold to cover the ongoing costs for the season including instalments for Hamer, Gyokeres, Sheaf, etc
MR must feel he’s been undermined

Purely in terms of Hyam yes. In terms of how it feels it’s hard to be optimistic but you have to be

This looks like a relegation battle. It was the defence we particularly needed to strengthen but Panzo aside we have only brought in kids. What the eff is going on. Kane on the sidelines no hyam and 5 days to go.

I heard he was late to training so his forfeit is to buy Joy a new handbag…. And she does like her handbags…

Relax Its good business, we've had a leaky defence for a couple of years, and Hyam has been a mainstay in that dodgy back 3. It gives us a chance to bring in fresh blood, and hopefully someone with a bit more pace who can actually pass a ball to a sky blue shirt !

Never easy seeing your favourite players leave. Blood is starting to boil at the thought of flogging our best defender in a state of panic with no intention of adequate replacement.

It's a bit pathetic and reminiscent of relegations past.

Act like most other clubs in the league and put some money in.

If you have a strategy that doesn’t work sell up or change

We have £20 million of debt and that’s in 15 years taken us to where we were in tbe first place.

The strategy worked in League One/Two, it doesn't in the Championship.

Don't think I've ever heard MR that defeated. Admits the defence is struggling then laughed when the interviewer mentioned Hyam being sold.

I don't think we'll be in a relegation battle this season, but the clubs only heading one way.
We're going to lose half this team by next August , (and probably the manager), and try and replace them on a shoestring.

If there's any substance in sisu looking to sell, he won't jump ship until he at least sees what comes of it
