Best centre back by some distance leaving and people still think we're in for a good season next year.
We have no money. For the likes of Wrexham to be able to sign our better players shows the level we're working at.
Best centre back until Ness got the shirt - and his competition was Lavelle and Inniss who he is marginally quicker than - not saying Hector is a good signing but think we're exaggerating how good O'Connell actually is.
O'Connell is the ball playing CB signed to play Garnerball.
His distribution is generally very decent but he is not the quickest. Just maybe, just guessing ...... but maybe Holden doesn't see EOC as a good fit for the gameplan he wants the team to play?
I think you have hit the nail firmly on the head Oggy. If as you say O'Connell doesn't fit your game plan but is still part of the squad, so be it. but bugger me Wrexham give you a call and offer you money for a squad player who the club picked up for nothing, what you gonna do ?
Losing EOC is really not the end of the world. He's hardly played despite being fit again for a month. We'll sign another centre back who may or may not be as good and the cycle will continue
This is surely all part of a bigger plan for the summer and if that’s the case I’m all for it.
The squad we have are now where good enough so if we can get rid and of the wage bill no complaints from me.
Loans and short term contracts for much better players with some injury issues concerns gives us time to have a look at them and see if they earn a longer term deal.
If there is not a bigger plan then it would be worrying but I can’t see it.
Penney played at CB on Saturday when Holden switched up tactics. Hector isn’t match fit, ludicrous to let EOC go for any other reason than to cash in. He’s also head and shoulders above Innis
Looks like a fire sale. Wouldn't be at all surprised to see Dobson or Leaburn sold if any half decent offer comes in
A fire sale is when you sell all your belongings you don’t want to lose. Save for EOC, that is none of the people who we are losing. It’s full of people we’ve been crying out to get rid of.

Is this the Holden who is only contracted to the end of the season ? 🙂

We've got rid of two CMs (neither of which were playing), the third choice goal keeper and a striker well past his best. Maybe Kirk goes too but again he's barely kicked a ball for us this season.
Even if O'Connell does go that's not remotely a fire sale. Every single one of those (bar E O'C) are players we'd need to get rid of in the summer if they'd stayed.
Absolute bloody hand-wringing melts the majority on here nowadays, you'd think we just announced we're selling Leaburn to Hackney Marshes for a fiver and a frisbee
Are you on crack? We have been playing Ryan Inniss (who is a complete liability) and a youngster who has luckily broken through at the right time… outside of that we have no one. If either of them get injured, highly likely given past experience, we are stuffed
O'Connell leaving rather than Inniss/Lavelle is absolutely laughable.
Everyone slags all three of them off. But now he’s leaving, O’Connell is a world beater. Truth is, we’re not going up, we’re not going down, O’Connell maybe wants to leave or is the biggest earner out of the three of them. This season, yet again, is a write off with another summer rebuild on the cards.
When the new owners take over are they going to change name of club to the loan fucking rangers what a shower of shit how any one thinks we are going to stay up with innis lavelle and a player that Wednesday wouldn’t sign because his not fit. I do not know.
Our best cb is a kid that has only a dozen first team appearances for us.

There a contract in place if all parties are happy in the summer ..
Not sure why everyone is blaming the potential new owners for this short-term and short-sighted transfer window. Sandgaard is the owner - it’s all on him.
Wow. I mean, bless those of you putting a positive spin on this. It’s adorable in a way.
Other than EOC going which of the players that have left did you want to keep ?
If Dobson, Ness, Leaburn are still here and Palace don't take back Rak Sakyi tonight then this is what so many people wanted. We were always only going to mainly bring in stop gaps to the end of season.
I agree I would rather O'Connell stay but if Andy Scott has any sense, then he will announce the fee we get for EOC because it must surely be above what he is worth as Wrexham lost the two CB in the cup ties and they need to be champions this year to guarantee League 2.
Of course we need new owners with ambition and bring in better players than leave in the summer or we will be stuck on the hamster wheel for ever and a day.

Absolute madness.

We lose a first team player to a non league side and people are annoyed about it.
Shows how desperately low we've sunk. Fuck off Sandgaard.
