    Its not so much who we sell, or how many we sell, it's how much we get for them (and who we sell them to) for that irks fans.

    I think it varies. Just selling at all irks a lot of fans, but the point is the reality that we don't sell en masse like online/fan opinion would have you believe. When it comes to regular first team starters anyway.

    I'm becoming convinced we are moving in the right direction. We'll have to see what these two Belgian lads are like. We need Morris back ASAP. The lad from Citeh looks like the type of player we need. We will have options on the bench, which we haven't had up to now. Not everything will necessarily click immediately, we need a bit of patience. Devante Cole is the only signing I'd question up to now. Hopefully he proves me wrong.

    Most fans can live with one major departure a summer but 2019 was something different altogether .

    That's because no disrespect Mowatt left on a free. In short nobody wants our players. (Can't give them away). Individually pretty ordinary but make up one hell of a team when they click.

    The first half at QPR was best football i'd seen in years. Likewise the second was toss.

    Be an interesting season. If the new lads gel quickly could be in and around the Play-Offs.

    Based on the number of scouts attending our games I wouldn't be saying this out loud. More like, in short, that nobody can afford our players in the current climate - because for once we hold all the cards and sales can be on our terms.

    We had to loan Miller out even though he's only got a year left. Couldn't give him away :D

    So nobody wants our fringe players is basically what you're sayin? We've got the option to extend Miller's contract by a year and he's on peanuts, so there's no need to give him away if he can go and play a season somewhere else. Then reassess at the end of the season.

    Injuries can play a part,last yr we were lucky with them,all we can hope is we stay injurie free and manager is good enough to spot weakness in who were playin because weve got some good players, reading game is different though in my opion,you av to look after your team mates anticipate a mistake,how many av said about doubling up on good wingers,1 good player can rip you to shreds but there aint that many teams with that many great players in this league,bensons pass against cardiff was made to look easy,i personally think were going to have a good season and if we can win 4or5 on spin players will buy into the managers thinkin.i think dom is going to be our top scorer this yr aswell with this system.we scored a few headers last yr i hope weve got someone who can puut a great ball in,i think every goal cardiff as scored av come frm set plays,mad.

    Impossible to know.

    None of us have seen any of our new players kick a ball in the championship.

    Could be great could be crapola. Only time would tell. I’d say a lower mid table finish should be achievable and that’s pretty decent given the insane spending in the championship
