Out O’Brien Toffolo Colwill Sinani Sarr Pipa Anjorin Blackman Eiting Campbell Vallejo In Boyle Kasumu Rudoni Nakayama Mahoney I’ve tried to place the outs in order of games played/impact of them going. Yes, Russell also broke through but we are still light on options. That is criminal. Our squad is in a good position? Is it bollocks. As has been said, 6 players and the coach down from the play off final and we have replaced them with lower league players. 9 days until a live TV kick off against Kompanys recently relegated side, we could end up getting a battering at this rate. Quick question ... who wrote this on 11 July "I've had my piss and moan now and I'm looking forward to seeing some football again. Seeing that has actually made me reflect about my own reaction to last week. I know I need to keep my own emotions in check. We are all Town fans aren't we? Well apart from timmyterrier" I see the heatwave has had you reaching for the Tena's again |

It’s to stop other clubs holding us under ransom when we look for a replacement. So this is how it could’ve played out: We lose Obrien for £10m and publicise the figure We want Rudoni as a replacement for 850k, but AFC Wimbledon say we’ll you’ve just got £10m in, pay us £2m you’ve clearly got the money. It makes sense, though transfer fees are pretty common knowledge these days even when undisclosed. What a load of bollocks. Why are you bothered ? It's all going to Janet's new conservatory anyway |

All the very best to Lewis, always gave his best & he has time on his side to improve his strike rate & final third decision making. Hope you go on to great things, good luck, kid. I hope both Lewis and Toffs play out of their skins next season, and hit whatever targets mean we get a bit more £££. I also hope Forest do as well as possible, again to maximise any add-ons due. If there's an add-on if they win the title, I hope they do that. BUT if they do, I hope it's entirely down to O'Brien and Toffolo carrying the team all season. Yes, I'd rather they'd gone to Leeds. |

Makes total sense, if a selling club knows how much you’ve got to spend then they have the advantage in any negotiation |

You really have not worked it out yet! £43m transfer profit and £90m in parachute payments since we got relegated, whilst reducing the wage bill. Yet we haven’t got a pot to piss in. I think it's far higher than £43m in transfer fees. Billing £15m Smith £4m Kongolo £4m Grant £15m O’Brien/Toffolo £10m Mounie £4m Sobhi £5m (Inc loan fees) Pipa ? Diakhaby £1m I'm sure I've missed some but it's nearer £60m |

Diakhaby £1m I'm sure I've missed some but it's nearer £60m Bit less than £60m minus the transfer fees we’ve paid. I went back on transfermarkt for that info, minusing off Mbenza £11m we had to pay for at the end of his loan, then 600k pipa and 850k Rudoni |

Your mother must be very proud Bringing mothers into it now, how pathetic. There is only one person sad enough to trawl through users posts to prove a point and spend most of their day posting shite about absolute strangers. For 10 years equally I have had to put up with your condescending bullshit and trolling almost every one of my posts because you have taken a dislike to me. You talk to people like absolute crap because you are sat punching away on your keyboard with your sausage fingers like you are 10 men. Most write far worse on here, there is far worse on this thread however you choose to ignore this. Maybe you do need some time away from this forum to concentrate on what goes on in the real world. P.s my mother is proud. |

Relegation battle nailed on. Looking forward to it though I hope it’s the same thrilling relegation battle we were expecting this time last yr… 😉 Hope you're right but surely you can see the monumental differences in the preparation for last season compared to this. The time scales alone are a huge factor. We were able to identify targets and have deals ready as early as January but this time the play off final meant we couldn't plan properly as we had no idea what division we would be in. Missing out on 2 or 3 of our top targets Our manager and his assistant leaving who took an average ability squad to the play off final. Three of our top players from last season gone A rookie manager thrown in at the deep end Young lads from league one stepping up with the expectancy that they can replace someone like O'Brien. The Japanese lad having to settle in to English life and also trying to ensure he's injury free for the World Cup A previous season that was so heavily reliant on set piece goals and a top drawer keeper having the season of his life. Can that happen again? If we finish top half then Schofield will have done an unreal job. He's got a job just like the Barnsley manager walked in to last summer so it'll be interesting to see if he handles it better |

Looking purely at Lewis the player he has been outstanding for us. Without him we would probably have been relegated in the 3 seasons prior to last.
I wish him, and Toffs, all the best.
From a PR perspective it's pretty dire at the moment, but that's not LOBs fault.

Massive engine on the lad, remains to be seen how far that gets him but very much deserved his crack at the Prem. Gave his all and signed a contract when he didn’t need too, which he also deserves credit for.

That's sometimes harder to replace than what they bring on the pitch That's the bit that 'worries' me more, especially Toffolo. On the field, apart from a late season purple patch Toffolo was OK and hopefully Ruffels and Yuta, a Japanese International, should be able to cover his absence. Off the field he was a leader and a connection between the supporters and the club, this will be more difficult to replace. |

The players thought the world of Carlos. Looks like Hogg will have his work cut out again. |
