I do love it when they say that he is predominantly a right wing back but we played him on the left. 38 games mind, not just as a filler or cover when our left back was injured. Most of the flipping season.
Probably why he went elsewhere. Like Clare. Anymore round pegs in square holes ?
I really don't understand why we let Egbo go with 0 cover at all for an 18 year old who has single digit appearances at senior level. You'd have thought there would have been something lined up immediately with 100% certainty and if there wasn't Egbo should have been kept until that was the case. We now sit in such a fragile position and I'm certain a right back will come in but if he picks up a knock in the first half today we have no cover (and the same for the last few games). It's a major red flag with the ownership for me

But he’s gone to Wigan who Clare also signed for, so presumably he’ll continue to play on the left.

So we let Clare go Egbo left Sess has joined Wigan and we've bought in Edun Sounds like someone's not doing there math but we need 2 full backs plus cover
How long before Dabo starts to get a bit fed up with it all, if he's not already?
He 100 % has to prove his fitness if he wants a contract. Another sick note is the last thing we need.
Okay, but he's been with us a month and presumably we know there's some underlying issue given the failed medical. Either take the risk or don't and look elsewhere.

With the emergence of Asiimwe and Dabo presumably coming in soon, that's the same amount. However we need another left wing back really if we're to have the squad covered. It seems Holden believes a combination of Thomas as a left back and CBT as a wing back is sufficient cover for 352 and 433 on the left though
Have tried to be patient, but this feels like it's going down the same path as usual.
I still feel we are a RB, CB, CM and a ST short at the very least. It's not even about building a squad for the top 6, it's just about wanting to see the club move in the right direction.
It feels as though our strategy is to overplay our youngsters in the hope of recouping a few million in January/next summer. Frustrated.
Let's be real - we have been purchased by yet another group of pathetic spivs. Same old story!.
Looking forward to seeing the guff we bring in next week.
Not sure way this has been lol'd. We all know it's true. If you disagree with the ownership you get told you want us to fail.
I LOL'd because I agree with you but find it funny that others really believe the British SM mean what they say. The American owners have obviously been taken in by what they have been told, so I do not blame them for what is happening.
I'm sceptical about the Gang of Four rather than the owners.
I also know this coming week has been the busiest week of the summer window since they started so there is every chance we'll see Lapado a yet to be named forward come in.
The hold up is, IMHO, that Methvan promised the money men that everything could be done on a set budget but that budget was/is dependent on moving on three or four unwanted players for fees that no other clubs are, as yet, willing to pay as well as, in the medium term, higher gate receipts and commercial income but that oil tanker will take time to turn, if it can be turned at all at this level.
Too early to say no one else is coming in or they will be rubbish.
I think we will see new bodies but if they will be good enough or if there will be enough of them we shall have to wait and see.
Cutting and pasting from other sources and hoping people won't realise and think he's in the know since 1996
Why should I mention Reams .. I know it’s from him he knows that as well why should I mention it to allow people to have a go at him again .. people are just jealous of people who have very good contacts like Dubai on CL if he says something and it don’t happen the exact time and date he says he gets abuse as I say it’s just jealousy but there are a number of good people on this site who would like to hear the positive feeling around the club and what’s happening from whoever ..
So we let Clare go Egbo left Sess has joined Wigan and we've bought in Edun Sounds like someone's not doing there math but we need 2 full backs plus cover
One of reasons was the emergence of the younger players … sometimes you have to go with youth if you can’t do that in league one then what’s the point of spending millions on the academy every year

But you DO Copy and paster what everyone puts.
I find it annoying that when I go on "the other site" and this one, I read news about possible transfers and rumours etc, and your name pops up every 10 minutes and sometimes and 1 hour so with exactly the same information It is becoming increasingly annoying. Not only that, what you copy and paste changes. I reckon about 50 of your posts in the last week are copy and pasted.

With some exceptions such as leadburn, academy players need to be in and around the squad for sometime, or even go out on loan before they are ready, such as ness, Maynard-b and Kanu. even our Campbell was integrated sensibly.
Anderson and Asiimwe have come from nowhere to be first team starters. They both show promise but both are not ready to be tried and trusted first team players. They should both be involved and play in cup games and as cover. Port vales winner is proof of that. We need senior bodies through the door and we need them now.
im generally late to the owner bashing party but this week is a very big week for them and their future relationship with the fan base.

Maybe they have the novel idea of having 2 players to compete for one position?
We’ll see, I doubt he’s gone there to potentially only be back up. Same with Clare.

I don’t think that’s really how it works. Both will want to play but they’ll have to work hard to stay there. Wigan have Clare at RB and Pearce at LB so I guess Sess will compete with both giving them two options on either side.

Oh dear Colin, where did you cut and paste that from?
Time to stop feeding the troll but I never mentioned anyone else on this site or any other and I'm not jealous. In fact, I like reading rumours from Reams because he does have good sources. The point is that you, Colin, don't.

Are you saying game time isn’t part of the conversation when a player considers signing for a club? If they have two main full backs and have added Sess then he should play a decent amount of games.
My original point was he’s not gone there so he can play on the right when he’ll have decent competition in Clare.
I have a cunning plan. Next season can we please get our transfer targets in early so we can hit the ground running. A Radical thought I know, but other teams manage to do it.
