I get that, and the club decided that Kamara was the one to make way. If the Getafe deal has fallen though, surely we can offer him to one of the other clubs that wanted him, It seems strange to sudenly keep Kamara and get rid of our no.1 keeper.

It’s not been up to us to keep Kamara. Getafe have financial restrictions of their own. We can offer him out but even so that’s only to allow Amir in not the keeper. If the rumours are true about this keeper then it’s to replace Pandur as we physically can’t get him into the squad with current restrictions.

I wouldn’t call it a fire sale but we’ve clearly sold some players and replaced them with loans/frees that we wouldn’t have done if we hadn’t had financial restrictions.

Either that or we’ve sold two CBs and replaced them with ones with injury concerns because we think it’s sensible.

Alzate being transferred for the money he did was also weird - surely we’d have got more if we didn’t need his wages off the books or the money for the fee?
Jones couldn’t get into the team at the end of last season, McLoughlin was only in the team because we didn’t have a decent left back. The players we’ve brought in are upgrades. Sometimes you just get unlucky with injuries.

It’s a fire sale, you may choose not to believe it but everyone knows it.

It's not unlucky when the precise reason they're free is poor injury record.

And they're not upgrades if they can't play.
 
So as we stand an unmotivated and disappointed Kamara is coming back, the geezer with 17 consonants and 23 vowels in his name has to look longingly over the fence from the dog field and feel sad cos he can’t play with his new mates and our player of the year, between the sticks man, who doesn’t want to leave, is being shipped out to sit on a rivals bench.


Winda closes 7pm Monday.

Just sayin’ like.
Sing along...

If they are fit - maybe

Both spent significant portions of last season out injured and are both out injured again.

ATM I’d rather have Jones and Macca.

If it’s just a matter of one senior player in, one senior player out… why does that have to be Pandur or Hughes.

Coyle wants to go anyway according to man down pub, and Slater will hopefully spend his arse on the bench this season.

There's absolutely nothing unlucky about Famewo and Ajayi getting injured. They've a track record of being injured so you can't act surprised when that theme continues.

Coventry City have had a third attempt to sign Hull’s Charlie Hughes turned down, with the Tiger’s standing firm and seemingly determined to keep the defender at the MKM Stadium.

The Sky Blues have already seen bids of £4m and £7m rejected by their Championship rivals, and our sister title Hull Daily Mail report that a latest bid is understood to be in the region of £10m, but, again, it has been rebuffed.

It further says that Hull remain determined to keep their highly-rated centre-half beyond Monday night’s transfer deadline, with the 21-year-old viewed as an integral part of Sergej Jakirovic’s squad this season.

It’s understood the powerful defender is happy in East Yorkshire and not pushing for a move, although it remains to be seen whether Hull’s resolve could be tested if Coventry go back with a fourth bid closer to £12m.

Owner Acun Ilicali, the report says, believes Hughes could be worth as much as £20m next summer if he enjoys a strong season at the MKM Stadium, with head coach Jakirovic suggesting his next move should be to the Premier League.

To lose Ivor Pandur, Mr. Ilicali, may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose Charlie Hughes anarl, looks like carelessness.




I love a bit of Oscar, me.
 
Selling Hughes as I said before does us no favours. Im pretty sure the deal to sign him hinged on huge sell on clause not the fee.. well be B&M'ing for replacements... more its what it does to the morale of the whole team... Accun ****ing grow 2...

On the subject of Ajayi and the other fella, does it not say everything about recruitment.. the fella Dublins CV isn't as good as Selles...
