    What bugs me is that if a deal is done just announce it. Don’t care for photo shoots or boring interviews holding up announcements.

     If we were signing Lionel Messi I’d understand a bit of fanfare

    Agreed. For all we know the deals could of been done 2 hours ago but they’re doing some silly photo shoot ? just announce it

    I'm not sure if I can see this one being done. 

    Can't see Luton wanting to play ball with us after how salty they got when Naismith joined us. Which was actually down to a lack of communication between their own manager and club rather than anything we or Naismith did. 

    I think their dislike of us goes back to the Tony Thorpe days.

    He’s out of contract in the summer, they’re a little bit powerless really. Would be in their best interest if we put a bid in

    Harsh on King who it seems has had a huge influence in his 18 months here.

    Maybe harsh on king, certainly not the worst more experienced player bought in over the years, could of said Simpson instead!

    but my original point still stands, from this signing to O’brien, linked with the Wimbledon player who’s 21 this is the policy we should be inheriting now and in the future. Long may it continue

  4. I would love to know what their "ethos" is. Is it having a truly awful stance on domestic violence, is it harbouring a convicted criminal making him one of your own, giving him chants, banners, putting him on your merchandise. 

    Is it stealing a historical ground from another sporting team in Bristol purely for your own financial gain? Is it giving death threats to a player who single handily got you back to back promotions, being your best ever player in the last decade?

    Please, Deluded Sag, what is your ethos? Your football clubs culture, beliefs and "ethos" is maybe aligned back in the 1970s, but not in todays ever progressing world.

    Their fan base seems to be divided between the “God, we are awful - we are in deep doodoo this season” camp and “Remember last season, we started poorly and look how it ended”. Except they were in a much weaker division - if it’s shaping up to be a carbon copy of any season it’s 2020/21.

    Top 6 with the exception of Derby has already shaped itself in league 1 it seems. They don’t have a championship standard player in league 2 against the likes of Harrogate and Sutton to bail them out.. they’re in the shit and it’s glorious
