When's the draw for the next round? Is it this evening or Monday afternoon perhaps?

Monday 3pm on Talksport.

At least not raining now. I was hoping some reinforcements would be announced, but looking unlikely now.

Big decisions for Parky, where to play players as we don't seem to have any wingers. worried, but will be there as usual. Come on Alty.

I've no idea whether we have signed anyone new yet or not but if we have, I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't announce it until just before KO so as to keep Wrexham in the dark. We've pulled that trick a few times before.

some time ago i suggested that whilst people with no connection to the club are being invited to invest then shares should be offered to long standing fans so they can invest their cash as well as their emotions in to the club. i was told at the time that this was a good idea, but it doesn't appear to ever have been acted on.

This literally happened a few months ago. The Seedrs crowdfunding investment scheme.

My query was about me rather hoping that we 'sold' him on the basis he would not play against us.......but if, as we believe, a release fee clause has been triggered, then maybe no such deal could be struck.

Remember the play off versus Guiseley when their player manager agreed not to play for them after we released him ?.......Boshell ?

I think in the Boshell case, that was very much a gentleman’s agreement rather than a contractual stipulation. I’m not sure you’re actually allowed to have a clause preventing a player playing in a certain game when they’re being sold.

I thought it was quite a decent topic being discussed from various points of view to be honest

No, you've misunderstood. You either agree with everything Marple Alty says or you're clearly in some way mentally deficient. To be honest, you're lucky he didn't deploy the crazy face emoji on you.

We're all entitled to our opinions! I've been wrong on plenty of occasions, it's good to be self aware after all.

It is my opinion that paying someone an extra £1k a week to leave for nothing anyway is ridiculous in a season where we're extremely unlikely to be in the playoffs nor relegated.
You said the thread had gone insane it seemed quite balanced to that point .

 I totally agree it's all about opinions we will never agree nor should we have too.

I'll miss him when he goes he's been a legend and stayed much longer than I imagined he would

Quite. Self-awareness only extends so far, it seems.

Just to clarify things in my befuddled brain then; are we expecting CCC and Coco to be starters tomorrow?
Yes would seem to be the answer but I'm a bit confused.com!🤔

Yes, Con Clarke available untill the end of January, and Colclough unless a deal is annouced tomorrow morning

When we signed him, the article said “till early Jan”, which I took to mean up to and including Jan 1st. I’ve not heard that we’ve extended that till the end of Jan but you may know something I don’t. My understanding is that tomorrow will be the last game of their current loan period for CCC, Jones and Jennings.

As did the club website, Laurence..

Alongside live streams, all matches will be available globally as well as BT Sport Saturday night highlight programmes as Video on Demand free-of-charge.

That's good. The fact that I still default to John's website for this sort of thing probably tells its own story.

JL quotes the NL press release on his website and it says:

"Alongside live streams, all matches will be available globally as well as BT Sport Saturday night highlight programmes as Video on Demand free-of-charge."

Not a day to remember fondly in general but Bennett's goal at Solihull was superb.

I think I heard that our away attendance at Southend was revised up to 80 on the day for some reason, although it was given as 48 initially. 80 looked about right to me.

What a great save to deny Jennings the winner

Although it wouldn't have been the winner as Jennings was (I think wrongly) flagged as offside.

If Mooney was out of contract why do we need paying? Humour me if I'm being dim.

We're owed a development fee because of his age. If a club signs a player under a particular age (23, I think?), they have to pay the selling club a fee to compensate for the effort they've put in to develop them. It's to stop big clubs snaffling the best young players from smaller clubs for nothing at the end of their contracts.

The fee for Mooney I believe has yet to be agreed, let alone paid.

He'd be off again if another 'big club' came calling. Given that unity and commitment are central to our ethos here it would be very problematic in a number of ways.

Alledgedly Southend werent the only club courting his signature. I'd like to think our star players have clauses for EFL exit only to prevent another Southend issue

Mooney was out of contract though, so we had no say in where he went.

There's literally footage of it happening at the Golf Rd End in the link above.
