Absolutely, if memory serves me right, under Bruce in the Championship we signed low profile players early on and then waited for the season to start. I'm not expecting anything until July.

  1. That's good because the transfer window doesn't open until July.

BBC

The summer transfer window will formally open on 1 July, although clubs can arrange to sign players prior to that point, and close at the end of August

How did Harry sign then? I thought June 1st was year end for the players?

I don't buy that
They will have known some are going so they can buy some, not all by any stretch, on that basis
It's not as black and white as you suggest I dont think, even though I accept that you can't replace everyone before others have gone

Season before last many had quite a few down for certain sale and it never happened. Chazz is right imo.

Firesale? Jesus drama queen it's just the reality of being relegated and having players that are much better then the champ, getting 17m for maguire in the last year of his contract is good business. So far this pre season the Allams have done what they said they would do, get a gaffer in asap which they have, and they said some players would go and they have!

So you predicted Davies going? Maloney gone too. Speculation re Tom. Also Josh due to mismanagement. Expected Harry, Robbo, Sam. Ehab told us 4 would go. On top of the loans going, leaves us in a horrendous position. If you really believe we are likely to replace these and then have a strong enough squad to challenge, you are very deluded.

How many have sunland and boro bought? I dunno I'm just asking den. What about other championship clubs?

But how many have they lost? They didnt have half a dozen loanees and so are starting with good championship squads. We couldn't even field a team at the moment (I suppose goalies could do a Fettis).

They've only lost, quite publicly, the bloke who scored every single goal for the last three years for them askew.

You've followed football long enough to know that you keep the core of your squad, just for the sake of team spirit. We'll be close to losing a full team with loanees/ best players going.

Agree. But we're powerless to stop them going if someone comes in for them.
I can't see Dawson going and I don't want him to or Hernandez or hudd or Clucas, as you say for stability. It's going to be hard enough for the slut without a completely new team to mold.
But if clubs are interested and they're paying them pl wages then we can't match them.
