If it's £15 million or thereabouts aye, I'd be ok, it was when folks were clamouring to get rid for £6-£10 mill I had severe reservations.

 

I certainly don't agree with the second sentence, we need pace at CB way more than we need a new RW at this moment in time IMO. We do need a better/electric RW option but in summer would be fine for that.

 

We only have one CB who is starting quality for the foreseeable future, all the others could be ready for the glue factory in 12 months.

 

 

Aye but it's not like going to the shops and picking up what you need, it's having the PSR room to spend when the right player becomes available.

 

It'd be great to sell who we want, when we want so we could buy who we want, when we want. But it doesn't work like that. We need to have the cash here and now. 

 

Someone wants to give us money for our reserve centreback.

Good, he needs proper game time.


must mean we’re keeping Kelly as losing both of them would leave us short if we had an injury crisis

Read something last week where he (Murphy) had asked to go out on loan, he'll probably have a recall clause.

No it wouldn't. Not really.

it would leave us with three options at centre back currently fit, with two still due to return from injury. you ideally want at least two players covering each position. i suppose it's a gamble they think is worth taking. 

 

murphy has looked quite promising to me, on the rare occasion he's had minutes. i wouldn't be against keeping him, but perhaps this means both krafth and lascelles are close to a return. i wouldn't be against him going out on loan in that case.

Krafth is fit, no?

I can't wrap my head around the value of this TBA rule they've brought in?

 

Essentially wages can be 5x the revenue of the poorest club in the PL, right? So, without even looking, this year Ipswich's revenue will be £100m as a bare fucking minimum. So, that means Man City et al are allowed to spend £500m on wages this season. I think they spend around £300m a year. 

 

And their spend has to abide by UEFA's FFP rules anyway.

 

So what exactly is this new level of bureaucracy for?

I’m no pro scout but I am surprised nobody has been in for Morgan Whittaker from Plymouth yet. Every time I’ve seen him, he looks good and able to make the step up. Maybe a bit older than people would like at 24 but there’s definite value in The Championship. Obviously priced out of Sunderland’s world class talents but elsewhere

Who was the Irish ITK who made a career out of  NUFC tittle tattle after guessing a transfer would happen? .. strap line was “like I say/said”??  can’t remember his name, is he still around or did the daily abuse do him in the end?…
