hypochondriac

Guess you despise hawkeye in tennis.

Deluded.

My standards are probably a bit higher than yours

They will definitely bring players in. They will definitely be of lesser quality. The club will make a big noise out of being stronger. Many in the fan base will lap it up.

The evidence of the window suggests we will sell both.

I'll be the first to celebrate and be cheerful when there's something to be cheerful about.

It's a pretty reasonable assumption to make.

If we find out tomorrow that we've lost Adams and Tella, I think it is reasonable to start publically questioning what Sports Republic are doing.

He also likes almost every single post soggy does that insults people. Rather suspicious to say the least.

Any suggestions?

Whilst I'm not in the circle, I respect their tribe.

I really hope that is untrue.

I actually can see some upside in getting in a new player to replace Adams. My main issue is doing it at this stage of the window where imo it's too much of a risk.

Hmm. Not quite that emphatic then "hopefully all being well".

I must have missed that bit. That's a positive bit at least if true.

I think this or something like it is the most likely scenario. My feeling is that I'd be cautiously OK with our defence and defensive midfield. A bit saddened by the downgrades in other areas of the midfield and really disappointed in our attack.

Odd reply. I didn't say I blamed Martin. The situation isn't his fault in the slightest, I would rather him be honest.

It's worth listening to the tone of it more than anything. Martin seemed downbeat and virtually confirmed that Adams is off. Said essentially he was fed up with the club prior to Martin coming in so maybe not much he can do. Alluded to others leaving too and suggested that the ones coming in woukd be replacements for those leaving (so to my mind that's Tella or Sulemana being replaced by fraser.) Holgate coming in at CB too which I'm not sure anyone wants, I'm hoping he's primarily a rb when kwp leaves.

What a depressing press conference. Not much to inspire confidence in that at all.

You won't be able to convince me that Manning is a replacement for Livramento.

Downes wasn't. Manning didn't replace anyone as we needed a lb. Shea Charles I'll grant you but I assume that's because we knew with certainty Lavia was off which is why he didn't play any games.

If Ryan Fraser is here as part of the squad to replace the wingers who have left or in place of Djenepo - not bad. Reports of a bad attitude but he might do well with a fresh start and coukd give us some strength in depth. If Ryan Fraser is here to replace Sulemana or Tella-that's completely shit and I'm very worried about our season and our squad and it's a pretty significant downgrade.

13:30

Imagine losing both of them and looking at who we've brought in. The success of this transfer window and indeed our season will hinge now almost entirely on what happens to four players imo (ABK, Tella, Adams and KWP).

And that's fine if all of them stay.
