    All we are doing is giving players a chance to get first team football and get them back up to full fitness so that the parent club will benefit from it , but while he's doing that he's probably not going to make much headway in this league lacking fitness etc , so while he's getting fit for when he goes back, we lose games because non of our players are actually at anywhere near 100% match sharp fitness levels going into games against clubs with exactly that... Not just playing against better squads but one's with fully match sharp players... So we sell a player to be able to afford a loan player that will leave come the end of the season...along with half the team that are on 1 year deals ....it's like we have already prepared for relegation..knowing we will be needing an entire new squad virtually come the end of this season

    Brin, how do you know that? If it is undisclosed I assume that is to help in future player discussions, so why would they do that and then just leak it out? If it is leaked to you don't you think the agents and clubs we will be speaking to will also know? So that doesnt make it undisclosed does it?

    I was told the fee was £1.5 million from my neighbour who is a sports journo. Brin is not far from the mark. BTW, Brin lives 75 miles away so there is no collusion.

    Paul Davis is reporting the fee is believed to be in 7 figures.
    MT is saying we will probably look at free transfers and loans in the last week of the transfer window.
    Fan...bloody....tastic ☹️

    I actually know wiles neighbour and he mentioned a bid for him a few days ago. The 7 figure bid is what he mentioned.

    There are a few more Sam Noome rumours surfaced today in a cash plus player deal. Eaves or Kayode ?
    Might be just because we’ve got some cash now though

    All these loan players do not help us long term we're just kicking the can a little further down the road leaving us in the end with no money and no players.

    All it does do for us is to leave us clear of debt if we do go down ...it is like we are going into it already half believing that we are going down anyway...Once all the loan players leave and the ones on year contracts we will have hardly any players left next season

    It can also work the other way though. Imagine how much better life would have been if Blackstock/Eaves had been a loan?

    He's on seasons loan and in his final year of his contract, so not really getting him fit for anyone else. Unless he plays his heart out and someone else buy's him in Jan. It all depend what's in the loan contract.
