Good question. Seems to have gone rather quiet on that front.

Ipswich spent a lot last season though, didn't they??

The ex-Brighton guy? That’s too random to be made up…..

We bought him for £12 million, rising to £15 million with add-ons. More chance of us starting with Chloe Kelly up front against Wrexham than us making a profit on him. Chloe Kelly up front would be a bit novel, mind…..

Craig Mackail-Smith?????

Glasgow Rangers fans seem to be getting excited at the potential prospect of Brooks signing for them. Bizarrely, Brooks has been quoted as saying he would play for Brent for life. What an odd thing to say. He appears to have succumbed to the cult. Possible typo in that last sentence….

That's the sort of completely random name which could have some substance to it......

I would be very unsurprised if we were being used by Downs’ representatives to get a better contract out of Cologne. He holds all the cards with just one year left on his contract. I assume Spors has other back-up options.

England fans coming back from yesterday’s game?

Sargent has been linked with following Farke to Leeds.

As many of you will sadly know, Elijah Khaira was tragically taken far too young in the summer. It would be wonderful if our fans could pay tribute to him at Saturday's game in the 20th minute. Please spread the word; it would mean the world to his family and friends. Thank you. https://x.com/Nick_SO19/status/1833062013762748891

They’re going to struggle to grasp his accent at Goztepe….

I would have liked Weghorst at Saints….

They have enough difficulty keeping the number of away game credits up to date as it is. Cardiff hasn’t been added yet, and won’t be until overnight tonight. I rang the ticket office to query this earlier on.

Oh yeah, I remember the West Brom away play-off game, when they seemed to have a large proportion of one whole block reserved… More reason to sell a few more players over the next couple of days…

Doubt it will go lower than 17 aways TBH.

I heard we sold around 2,500 for last night's game, but there were only around 1,700 there. So clearly a lot of people seeing it as a cheap game to get an extra credit.....

Generally they will set the first threshold of aways at a level such that it will always go to the second threshold. Which means that there will be less than 1,300 fans on 18+ aways. But I suspect not that many less, would guess there is between 1,000 and 1,200.

Surely not!!!!

Alfred House at the Echo seems to be hinting at some interest in Manning. This could surely only be from Goztepe or Valenciennes… https://x.com/alfiehouseecho/status/1829078351442546872?s=46&t=_0WF3xmOPMkvDJN1bRNQcA

Didn’t that happen a while back??

If he thought Everton fans were tetchy after a poor display, good luck to him at Marseille…….

He was probably around 6 years old at the time of Oliver Bierhoff. He’s a fcuking Man United follower as well… (I can’t bring myself to say “fan”)

Alex Fcuking Crook just been on Talk Sport talking up the Ward Prowse loan rumour….

He'll love our pink kit then. Speaking as another person blocked by Alex Crook BTW (just catching up on last night's posts on this thread, having been at Cardiff; my sin was to dispute both his sources and his grammar.....)
