Literally nothing coming out of the club at the moment.

What is going on?

We're being run like a proper football club. No updates means less chance of getting gazumped.

Do we need much more?

If we keep hold of everyone, what- one striker and a CB?

Not sure we need a panic

It's the quiet death of the ITK club. DK has put a stop to the leaks, and to be honest rightly so.

The amount that used to get out was shambolic really. The silence now points to the club being a much more professional outfit.

Boring for the average fan, mind.

Seems King’s money has ran out and he’s waiting on Gyokeres sell on fee or MVE to leave. Pretty shoddy way of doing it.

We desperately need a keeper and top quality at centre half and left back if we are to have any chance of promotion. That’s without addressing the right of midfield problem

Boring for us in a quiet off season but if it avoids another Stamenic/Browne debacle then I'm all for it.

We've gone from one extreme to the other. Used to know every little thing that was happening weeks in advance and now nothing

Might be a bit frustrating for us on here but its the right way to do things.

Yep, needs to go back to the days of turning up at the game and finding out we'd signed Matt Mills

I am surprised there’s not been more from Lampard tbh (unless I’ve missed it).

GK on loan
RB if MVE goes
CB ideally to replace Lati or Binks
LB Depends if Brau is considered first choice or not, depends if we can shift Bidwell or JDS
RW
ST

CM/AM would just be a luxury or whether we lose anybody else like Allen, Eccles or Sheaf

I guess it really depends if we can shift a few dead weights who we appear to have outgrown

I'd say really a GK, CB and Backup Winger option.

Then it depends on moving on a few players.

Collins
Lati/Binks
Simms/BTA = new ST

Or big offers for the likes of

MVE = another RB
Sheaf = another CM

We dont need a lot.

The two signings we've made were relatively well known weeks in advance. Perhaps there is genuinely nothing happening?

I can’t picture it being a busy summer. In terms of numbers we are well stocked in every position. Might be a case of having to move people on before we bring anyone in.

Unless we're buying U21s, we can only sign 1 more player before we have our full 25 man squad. Without loaning or selling players we have to decide to pay someone not to play.

I just think Doug has an iron clad glove on everything within the club and for him that means the minimum involvement of the press outside of the clubs own in house stuff. He will only get the CT and or CWR involved if it’s to his benefit, beyond that, it’s my guess they can wait like the rest of us until Doug allows anything to be said publicly

Agree with all of this except ST. We only play 1 through the middle, and we have 4 senior forwards on the books.

Reckon it’s a reason they didn’t have an awards evening, so none of the blabber mouths let it slip about Portugal?
