    And add Matt Macey at Luton Town. Worth a punt and they owe us.

    The flaw in your research is that every single one of those players are currently employed by a club atleast one league above us, so that ain't happening.

    Can't blame him, must have been very frustrating being dropped last season.

    He wasn’t dropped. He was injured. ‍♂️

    Good luck to him. To the best of my knowledge always acted professionally and whether I rated him as highly as some others or not I cannot question his effort which is all I ask from a player. I hope he has the best career that he possibly can

    Fair point. Once we opted to stick with a loan player over him this was always the likely outcome.
    I wasn't judging the merits of that decision in itself.

    **** me. The good news just keeps coming. We’ve gone from a conversation about whether we’d want Isted or Collins to having neither. Brilliant. On top of the sale of the defence to Luton, it’s all looking a bit sick.

    More positively, Good Luck Brad. Great servant and a really good move. An ambitious Club who keep progressing year on year.

    No surprises about any of the players who have left so far this summer it was always going to happen infact i expect Williams to leave before the window shuts aswell.

    Extremely underrated by a lot of our fans, can understand why he's gone to a club who finished in play offs of the league above. We love using stats without context on here, and we have fleeting memories. Was brilliant for us in the championship.

    Probably get pelters for this, but his sweeper keeper ability and with the right training I reckon he could play even higher, or abroad - he would certainly have started for Southampton and Leicester last season! Hopefully he has a long and fruitful career.

    Good luck brad!

    Instability? A bit over the top?

    He got injured, Isted came in & did well so kept the shirt. That’s football.

    He’s seen the money & wants to go. He only has a year left on his deal so we’re happy to sell.

    Absolutely nothing to do with playing in a higher league? He will definitely feel personally shafted though, regardless of whether its true or not. Especially if the poor lad read this board at times :)

    That's what I was looking at - Championship - on the basis that there will be good keepers who are surplus to requirements in finding themselves third choice in their teams for the coming season.
