Zouma, Wilson, Gribben, Penfold, Sea all need to be shipped out but even then we will still have a squad of 28!
Not complaining at that by the way - it’s a positive but we literally cant afford (in monetary terms) to carry the dead wood.
Could anyone tell me about the Irish lad who went back to Ireland as he was home sick , played for local belfast team .
Surely he had to amongst the deadwood to be removed

Played for Glentoran (one of the biggest clubs in Northern Ireland)
He is part of the 33 although will be a job trying to sell him as he has a double leg fracture not sure if he’s back with us or still with Glentoran during the recuperation

Why change a defence that has just had a clean sheet, they know if they don’t perform there’s good players to come in.

Wouldn’t make sense to sell arguably our best player at this time if we end up mid table there will be bigger offers from bigger clubs so hope we don’t take the 250k

No chance the board sell our best player for 250k. Need to double it at least.

BBC RC interview with the manager this evening. Mainly about today's signing but didn't rule out further transfer activity - in or out.
Don't let the old man in.

“....some players may decide to move on.....”

Interesting way of putting it.
