I hope it's not Ogie. Anyway I thought the idea was to strengthen our squad , not weaken it .
More likely to be Sweeney, Sodje or maybe one of the reserve keepers

Not somebody that'll be missed, if what I've been told is correct.

I wonder if it could be Georgiou. I know that he has only just signed but he is never mentioned by RW and he never played on Tuesday although he was down to do so

The figure is rumoured to be six figures.
But he is injured!

If Drinan goes this late in the window we're screwed. Can't see us finding someone as good at such late noticed either perma or on a loan

If Drinan goes it would be a massive blow to this team, full stop.

There’s been rumours about Sweeney for a while. It it is him then to be honest he does need to be okaying regularly and he certainly will not be getting that with us,

Is that who played left wing v Portsmouth? Could well have been him.

Think it was indeed Kai Corbett.
Somebody on here said he didn't play that well the other night . My understanding though was he only played the first 45 minutes .It was hot plus he was playing alongside players he hadn't played with before . I'd give him most of the Dagenham game to help get him up to speed . What position does he play

Forster-Caskey would be a good signing but I'm a little bit concerned about his injury history . However if the club feels he's fit enough now then OK , get him in the building .
Probably me.

He played left of the front 3. Looked like a typical U23 lightweight kid, not ready for mens football. Yes, it was only 45 mins, yes new team, yes it was hot, but it was enough to make a call. We're desperate if we end up going for him.

I seriously doubt this will happen . Richie really likes him and wants him to stay. He is a big part of Richie’s plans

He looked tidy. You can not judge someone in 45 mins. He left WH to join Pboro

You couldn't see or judge anybody on that stream, and some wondered why some wanted to attend to watch it properly. I'll trust Richie who could see properly.

I have no idea but he might possibly be one of the cheap signings Richie was talking about.
