    Agree, the other aspect we never see are the behind the scenes relationships and influence of agents/ players, plus the lure of a much more desirable area to live and spent part of their young lives. All the club can do, provided a contract doesn't allow them this luxury is to say yes, no, not now when a player or club come calling unless its I the clubs interest at that time or we can progress.

    I doubt there are too many people wishing we had Bradshaw rather than Woodrow. Or would rather we still had Mallan now that McGeehan is showing what he can do with a run of games behind him.

    But fail to progress and seem to just be cashing in, that's not going to go down well when they consider the new owners collective net wealth to be comparable with the richest owners in the whole football pyramid. We were told the aim was promotion, one of the few things we've been told. Now we're approaching the sprint and in with a good chance, I can't see any sense in weakening the first team with such better rewards and awareness available to us should we succeed.

    I might be in a minority of one on this but I think Pinnock is better than Mepham.

    I know the latter is only 21 but he was absolutely schooled by Kieffer when we beat them last season.

    I think it is an absolute insult to say that Pinnock is only worth half of what Mepham is.

    It is all bunkum
    Nothing on their website. More about losing their own players and they are not that rich
    Think Winkler will go and Stendel will probably fetch someone in from old club to replace him
    Let's not get ahead of ourselves we will still push on
    Good news is that Sunderland look like loosing their star striker abroad

    You should read their board! Apparently he's been in and cleared his locker before a deal has officially been signed!

    No Maja. I was refering to Sunderland losing their striker. I'm sure Kinnock would behave better.

    We should just say. I to Brentford- they did it to Bournemouth who apparently offered £5 mill for their CB - they turned it down and, after further bids, agreed at £12 million - we should do the same!
    They did it in the recent past with Hogan (I think) & they are not bigger than us (yes, I know they’re in the championship) - just say no & watch bigger buds in the summer if we lose out on promotion. Everyone tries it on with us cos they think we are patsies!

    Just said that Brentford are interested, doesn't make a difference, a lot of their reporters just trawl twitter make something up and then just say it's come from "Sky Sources".

    It's just a story about a rumour with no credibility to it whatsoever .
