    Don't bring that into it mate.

    Introducing facts when people are furious is like waking up a sleepwalker ...

    ... you just get a bad reaction.

    Nick Barnes is an absolute tosser BTW, I'd give him a life ban from the club <doh>

    Just broke the Clarke news to the bairn. He said don't worry dad, we just need to buy some Real Madrid players. Kroos or Modric are his suggested replacements.

    Maybe we've accepted the low-ish fee for Clarke because we've already got the money spent on other targets. If we tried to squeeze Ipswich for another £5 million over the next week Ipswich could have withdrawn their bid, we may have ended up with no money, no decent signings and an unhappy player.

    We don't know the fee though, just because the media are reporting a fee doesn't mean it's accurate

    Guess we'll only know if it's been a good deal at the end of the season. Getting knickers in a twist this early is pointless. I've enjoyed watching JC, the kind of player that gets you on your feet. Let's see what the window brings?

    Ipswich are taking a big gamble on a player who didn't make the grade in the PL previously ...

    ... if Clarke was such a sure thing there'd have been a bidding war.

    There wasn't.

    Feels like the Marco sale. Always felt that was low. We will have to see what happens but I can understand why fans are frustrated at what has been reported. Feels at least 5m short if not more

    As the fee will be undisclosed we’ll never know truly but I think it’s obvious what it is

    Well me lad txt me at work last night saying Clarke going.
    Had a nose on here. Read about a meltdown on rtg.
    Had a nosey on there. :eek: kinnell talk about sand in their vaginas <laugh>

    Was hoping he'd stay. Oh well. We have brought him on and made a profit like others before under the new ownership and he won't be the last.
    Sorry to see Clarke go but we're improving all the time bar the odd blip.
    Onwards and upwards.

    I've always thought the team was built around Clarke the last 18 months. Getting strikers in and a decent option down the left should make us more balanced and stronger for the season.

    It's not really, it's not like media haven't used guesswork before.
