It’s not a chronic injury. And Marti Cifuentes isn’t a doctor. It could be a long term injury though.

No one is saying he would walk back into the team, but fully fit he would be in the team which isn’t winning, surely. I imagine we got Dembele and/or Madsen to allow us to sell Chair before his contract runs out. His market value is higher than those two combined, but only if we sell him quick. I’ll miss him, always gives everything and has frequently been the only bright spot over the last few seasons. Bit of a twat hitting people with rocks though.
Other that disagreeing with your definition of the word chronic...which to me and the dictionary means "persistent or long term"...
I agree with everything else you said.
He could be a very saleable asset.

Let him go

Come off it, you know a chronic disease is something like diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis, not a bruise. And if he does have a chronic disease which means he can’t play, no one will buy him….
Maybe he's doing a bit of dealing on the side now he's a crim...
chronic
1.) One of the stronger strains of marijuana. It is actually NOT used to describe just any sort of good weed, there is a certain type, usually indica, that is labled chronic. It won 3rd place at the 1994 High Times Cannabis Cup.
Sky Sports News reporting that QPR have made an approach to sign right wing back Max Johnston from Sturm Graz on a loan deal to the end of the season.

Alot of those were academy and development and fringe players.
An real indication that the new regime thought that the previous regime idea about the academy was not up to scratch.
Our best young academy players were being poached by the big clubs.
Our back up plan seemed to acquire players that were released by bigger clubs as not quite good enough ( e.g. Eze).
The new " broom" had a real clear out.
Might not make much saving on money...but maybe set up a new mindset
I don't see the point in this for Dykes or for our club ...

Birmingham are splurging cash. Buying promotion
I do not believe the 1 million...we don't disclose..I would guess/hope more like 2 million
Dykes...he is going to a club that will get promotion (?)
His wages will be up on what we will offer
He wants a new start.
He won't be an automatic starter for us...I guess
He thinks he will score goals..
And get back in Scotland squad.
From club point of view
He is 28.
We need a new start too
His scoring record is going down each year.
Frey is looking as good as Dykes in the blunderbuss no9 position.
We really need an agile striker...is that Celar...not sure it is ...maybe Kolli...
Yes I see it...another poor year for dykes...and hecwill go for nothing to get his salary off our books

Selling dykes makes perfect sense to me. He's been with us a fair few seasons now and it's just been like watching an episode of Heartbeat on loop.
Dykes has mostly put in a shift for us and although he hasn’t produced the goals we expect from someone in a 9 shirt, he has been one of ours. Times are changing, he won’t get what he wants from us so he has to go elsewhere. Thanks for your service and efforts. Good luck in the future
An odd move for Dykes, albeit I imagine he'll probably be getting a pay rise. Probably makes sense for the club to get some cash for him, though.
You too eh? My wife has taken to watching it before we settle down to our 2 hours of scandi noir binge watch in the evenings.
It sounds low to me too. The Mail say it's £1.5, still sounds low. I'd guess Dykes will score more than Frey with Dembele and Saito, he's more mobile and can help out better in midfield and defend set pieces.
Opinions are split on Dykes but his goal tally for a striker is abysmal. If we're serious about challenging for play-offs we need more than he can offer. He should do better in League One and I wish him well as he always gave his all for us...
The problem for me is that however good (or mediocre) a player is once they are in the final year of the contract a club has to sell for whatever it can get. I'm not going to enter the debate how good he has been as it's been a while since I've been able to watch them live to make up my own mind on him so let him go and good luck to him.
