This is getting similar to Non League football lower down the pyramid when a manager's leaves and half a dozen players move with the gaffer. Common place in the part time world of football but you don't see more than a couple of players normally in the Pro game. Tutt-Tutt and Swisdom and Charlton fans who follow the lower tiers will know the politics of the game but this is becoming slightly surreal. A couple of our players going to Swindon like Davison and Clayden (Louis Reed's Doppelganger) may be an idea.
I know it's funny from a banter point of view but imagine if the same club came in a nicked CBT, Dobson and errr actually I cant thinking another one 😂 we would all be going mental 😂😂😂
The thing is. Reed would be the only player we’ve signed off of them, and it makes total sense to pick the best players from the previous managers club who know what he wants and how he wants to play.
The fact that two of these are freebies because they are out of contract is a great bonus.
I suspect £4-500k will get him as he’s only a year left on his contract. It’s all looking positive 👍

At this point I think we are begging clubs to take the majority of our players!!
I'm quite surprised by the people that say they don't care about our playing style, they just want to get promoted. Is supporting a football team that much more enjoyable the higher league you are?
Prestige wise yes. But I honestly don't think my excitement is that much different no matter what league we're in. I'm probably more excited about this season than in recent memory because I feel like we're trying to build something that makes sense. And this season just gone was the worst I can remember because it was so aimless and haphazard.
Please God just make the 4140 minutes of this season eenjoyable to watch and I'll consider it a good season, promotion or not.
Edit: the Pardew championship season was fucking terrible.
Good post.
Whilst I’m sick of league 1, I’d quite happily suffer it for another couple of seasons if we can build something. The football played under Bowyer (at the end of his tenure), Adkins and Jackson was soul destroying I’m actually looking forward to us managing to complete 10 passes.
Not sure where to put this, but the usual characters on twitter have been talking about Thomas not paying the rent for the last three months.
It was to be expected, everything around the club has been positive lately so they were bound to make something up.
Not expecting it but in a way it would be hilarious if we put together a strong team and have a great season. Those characters would be waiting for it to go horribly wrong. For them every L2 signing is further proof we’re going backwards under TS.
Definitely some fans almost wishing him to fail. It's bizarre
I think it’s more, some fans, and I’ll include myself in this to an extent, are just a bit more cautious after the last few owners we’ve had.
I would put myself in that camp with you, but there are some (on twitter) that turn everything into a negative - and go OTT with it. Saw someone call him skintgaard and Mr Breakeven on the announcement of the new GK. Doesn't even make sense.

Ben Garner: "I told Swindon Id get them promoted, no matter what"
After all... We did similar to Croydon

Until the pigeon fed me that wisdom I didn't know clubs had Instagram Sites.
