Sammie was signed with Championship experience and a standout player in League One. His credibility in British football compared to these two is on a totally different level.

You guys are smoking some wacky stuff. He’s 28 and will quadruple his wages if he gets a Prem move, or double them for a top end Championship move. There is absolutely no way he stays on the back of signing a striker who’s only success is in a relegated side in Belgium and a forward that’s never scored outside of Japan.

I think he’d be very expensive wage wise, but it isn’t the first time he’s been hinted at this window.

I’ll be astonished if we’re not playing 4231 in the vast majority of games next season.

Good point, well put.

If we’ve spent 1.5M on an U23s player I’ll be damned.

I think Gally has been tarnished here because we spent 5M on him and paid him rumoured somewhere between 15-18K per week. If we signed him for 1M and paid him 10K a week he would be good value as an option. In addition to that he’s exceptionally good looking in kit launch promos.

If I was in charge I’d be doing one based around clicking send on the paperwork. Or receiving confirmation from the EFL.

Especially since one of them will be playing for the U23s

Which was cheapest? Cos he’s on that one.

Tell us you’ve got one last protest in you, Glen!

You’re making up a conversation here which just isn’t happening. The sequence of events is as follows: 1) He said he feels sorry for people that bought a season ticket this season. 2) You asked him why he feels sorry for them. 3) You’ve told him he doesn’t need to feel sorry for you. That isn’t conversation nor discussion, it’s you simply making statements and ignoring the context.

Why do you think he feels sorry for season ticket holders, Chaddy? You’re seeing the same as us, right? You’re watching all of the talented players be sold, their fees spent on running costs on salaries for the likes of Steve Waggott and their replacements being free transfers from lower divisions and unknown leagues?

Which is poor enough as it is - but do the bench as well! We won’t have a single viable option on the bench.

Dykes is absolute tosh. Neither him nor Gallagher will do remotely enough to save us this season.

I’d say so. This club doesn’t remotely resemble the one I started following. It’s fading away before our eyes and the majority of fans think the solution is to support the team or try and negotiate or work with the likes of Venkys and Steve Waggott to improve it. It’s frankly laughable at this point, I’m delighted they haven’t pressured me into a season ticket with their shite offer. Fuck Waggott, Fuck Venkys. The formers reputation and damage to clubs around the country should be a shame necklace around his neck. I hope the latter go bust and lose every single penny — I’d rather be shite and broke than support their version of this club.

Will only happen when we’re right on the cusp of relegation.

I think it’s fair and reasonable for a 29 year old and we should do right by someone that single handedly took it upon themselves to keep us in the league and now has an opportunity to play Premier League football

“Tell Twitter he’s brilliant or you’re not allowed to interview the manager!”

Nobody has a link yet Abbey, because they haven’t been released. The moment they are released they are consistently posted almost immediately on here by members that have attended. You’re barking up the wrong tree and making yourself look very silly - fans are giving up their own time to go to these meetings and ask the questions they feel are important. If you read the notes and don’t feel the important things are being asked, why don’t you go? I know K-Hod as a friend. He will have asked the questions that represented the feel of the board.

Hyam has 12 months left on his deal I think. On that basis, given his performances and public all out with fans, in normal circumstances you'd suggest he will probably be sold?

Its the negative spin to counter when Waggott announces him as "An impressive capture of League One Superstar"

A 37 year old centre back who’s only way to be effective is defend our 18 yard line. A forward released on a free transfer from League One Wigan. An unproven forward from the J League that’s had an ACL on a free. This is as bad as I had feared it could be. We could be on for a record low point relegation.

I can’t say I’ve read every post here, but X and Facebook is flooded with positivity over the signing.
