    Difficult to ignore selling your better players right from under you, which I fear will come in January, Kaled has all but admitted to it

    Khaled has already said he doesn't want an experienced manager brought in to keep us up. He wants an inexperienced project

    No messing from Boro, Warnock out Saturday, Wilder in Sunday.

    Wouldn’t surprise me if we still don’t know who we want in yet.

    Saw Warnock's interview, he said he'd heard three weeks ago that Boro were talking to a new coach. What looks a quick decision on the face clearly isn't. Its been a well thought out process with weeks of talks behind the scenes
    I still expect us to appoint this week.

    I hope we do. In the meantime, I hope they’re spending the week working on fitness.

    No not directly but he did make the point that there had been any players sold in the last window as a negative issue (ignoring that Chaps had been sold). I’ll be amazed if we don’t lose at least one of our main players in January. At the same time he also lined up the excuses about players having ‘aspirations’ I really do hope I’m wrong about this believe me but I fear I’m not.

    I find the whole situation completely demoralising. What a shitshow of a club.
    If its not the manager issues its the west stand. If its not the west stand its the 750k debacle. If its not the 750k its the wrangling between the ownership groups. Oh.... and then there's the lack of transparency, the probability of selling more players in Jan and the looming prospect of relegation which becomes more likely by the week.
    The club is a joke. Be nice to find out what the punchline is.

    So he didn’t say it then? Maybe we will sell someone in January, maybe we won’t, but a high majority of posters were amazed last season as well and in the Summer.

    FYI he never said not selling a player was a negative issue. He just commented that we had all that success and no interest in our players. The context and interpretation there tells two very different stories.

    Loko, this is a fans forum not the Old Bailey. I think my posts were clear enough in what I took his comments to imply. Ie “my reading between the lines” so please don’t throw the “he never said “ retorts at me.

    It’s a fans forum as you said. Which means you’re allowed to throw out an alternative interpretation of something when words are being used that weren’t actually said - otherwise it would be a bit one sided and echo chamber like surely?

    You’ve not made an alternative view to his comments though. All you keep repeating is that Kaled never said something which equally have I never posted.

    I thought he said we would need to raise funds if we wanted money to spend in January?

    So, sell if we want to buy, which I won’t mind if I can see a footballing logic to it, e.g we might get a coach that only wants to play one up front, so might be a case for selling a striker or two. Or if we move from playing wing backs, and a bid for Styles comes in, it’ll be worth considering if we bring in an experienced midfielder in return.

    My fear is we sell Helik. While he’s frustrated me a bit this season, we can’t afford to lose either him or Andersen.

    You said he had ‘all but admitted’ we would be selling our better players in January. But he hasn’t said that or hinted at that, or has he? That was my original reply because I might have missed something.

    I don’t think he even said that. It was a surprise to me when it was tweeted, but then I think it’s hard to listen to what’s been said, tweet it, and condense it down in to 280 characters. Making notes and reporting afterwards with loads more context is the best way to do it in my opinion.

    When you add up having to sell in order to buy, players having aspirations, and changing the playing system (which produced one of the best points harvests in our history) in order to speed up player development, it seems pretty clear to me which way the wind is blowing - semantics or no.

    Yeah, only going off what was posted. But to be honest, when I read it, I didn’t particularly see it as him saying something we didn’t already know anyway.

    that’s more a case of shafting your current manager by tapping up ‘replacements’ while you’ve still go a manager
