Re: Leaburn being sold, the current speculation re: a takeover would complicate things, but if it were TS and someone came in with even a bid of £1m, he’s likely to accept it, regardless of if we think he’s worth more.
When you’ve spunked as much money as he has, with what I presume is little chance to recoup it, you’ll take every penny you can get
Where is the evidence of this. Of all the shit you can throw at TS, under selling our players is not one of them. There is maybe a risk he would accept a low ball cash up front offer if selling to get as much cash in as possible beforehand I guess but there has been none of that so far.
again - this is what i was responding to - "every chance to recoup" "where is the evidence" - my reply - Burstow. man u money. Pope money.
every chance to recoup; Scoham your words;
"Pope and Man Utd money will have funded the losses."
Swisdom's 'force' clue might refer to Mason Burstow. "Burst' is a type of force. Or maybe Mason being a builder is also a work force. If Burstow did come back on loan he would be behind Leaburn and Bonne and probably Stockley as well, although I imagine Stockley will be on the move.

Given he’s losing money hand over foot and by the looks of things, done with the club, why wouldn’t he accept such an offer?
Things have changed quite a bit in the 3 years he’s owned us.
As I say, the takeover speculation muddies the waters somewhat, because he may not have overall say in who goes and for how much if we get taken over, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was just him and no sign of a buyer, he’s at the stage where he takes the first sizeable offer that comes along
I struggle to believe he'd accept 1mil. I don't doubt he'll accept a reasonable offer though.

I'm not sure that's loads of evidence to be fair. He's hardly going to reject the Man Utd or Pope money, they weren't choices. Only Burstow was.

Well there isn't any evidence yet. It's only been Burstow which wasn't a bad offer.

Mason Burstow?
not in the know but as soon as the offer hit 6 digits he was gone?
where did the Pope sell on go that happened this season?

Noone is saying he won't sell AT ALL. Of course he would. He'd be stupid not to. But that's not at all the same thing as saying he'll accept an offer he thinks is too low. The Utd money and Pope sell on fees were set and not up for negotiation. Burstow was and was actually a pretty good deal in the circumstances.
Unless Wollacott demanded a transfer (which is unlikely as he's not even fit yet) we'd be mad to let him go. As others have said you never know when AMB is going to be injured again and then we'd be playing Harness with an U21 keeper on the bench.

Still think Wollacott number one done nothing wrong ..
Just a few days left as our mid table chasing squad takes shape who’s going where ? any other hidden gems in the Ipswich reserve side for us to covet and jostle over The excitement of this history making failure of a season for us knows no bounds .
not really sure what we are arguing here- does the money go into some protected special fund depending on who the player has scored against??
You responded to the suggestion that TS hasn’t undersold anyone with Burstow.
My point was he was undersold as he wasn’t that good. He got a couple of league goals but he didn’t impress with his all round play, he didn’t offer much outside the box.
Chelsea bought him for his potential. Leaburn on the other hand is a more complete player, had a bigger impact on games and is on longer contract. There will be more interest in him which will drive up his price.

Strange take IMO
We have a manager in place now who seems decent & the balance of the squad is far better than it was a few weeks ago, with possibly another couple to come in.
I'm more optimistic now than I've felt for a while

I'd still expect 2 in and 2 out before the deadline , obviously that would give us 6 loans potentially but with Kane's injury that isn't too much of an issue immediately.
Maybe a couple of the youngsters go out on loan too.

Glad you ain't picking the team.
Wollacott started the season very brightly and was one a few positive signings. AMB has been excellent shot stopper but I remember the Oxford 3rd lets judge him on half a season not a handful of games he undoubtedly is playing in a team thats in the best form its been in this season.
I'm not convinced either have earned the title of No. 1. The competition is healthy so I wouldn't be looking to off load.
This basically means no-one else will pay his high wages so he’d prefer to stay here even if he never plays.
I really would not blame him. He is coming to the latter stages of his career and was asked to play in a formation that does not suit his skills and experience. That was Garner's fault not his.

Expect or hope?
More going off Holden's interviews really , sounds like we could be quite busy
Stockley stay as 3rd/4th choice now is hardly the end of the world. If he is still here on the first of September that's a bit different. I would imagine him and Kirk would be the two that they want off the wage bill though.
