Shaq Forde

[Bergen]

Has joined Bristol Rovers for an undisclosed fee.

[Snowyash]

Only signing number 16 for them he must be so important to the starting 11 squad

[Long slender neck]

Ffs

[Stan1972]

Gutted really wanted him back in an O’s shirt
Hope it works out for him as he is and will continue to be a top player, who deserves to play week in week out.

[RedDwarf 1881]

We needed him . Again , were we unable to compete in the transfer market ?

[Story of O]

Obviously not exciting enough for us

[essexfootball]

Sort of investment the club should've been making

[gshaw]

Sums up the difference in our summer window right there, maybe we could play the new GK out wide get double value from the signing

[Stan1972]

What happened to the right sided attacker, RW wanted before deadline
Has RW been let down?

[Long slender neck]

Wonder how much they paid?

[Winchestorfan]

Pity but it is what it is. Bristol nice place to live . Presume Shaq offered better terms and he wants the best for himself.

I have no idea what they paid for Forde, or what his wages are but, as an example, Bristol Rovers are paying Ruel somewhere in the region of 5.5k to 6k a week.
We're up against sheer lunacy.

[Hoover Attack]

How do we know this?

I’ve no doubt they will make money from him in time.

[Stan1972]

I would say they prob paid £100k
He will def improve and will be a Championship player and prob be sold on for £500k
It is what it is, we are what we are and have to sign frees and loans.

Birmingham are also spending a lot but as we saw last Saturday it doesn’t always bring success
Yes, they won the game but we were the better team and but for a couple of errors would have won
Richie is doing wonders with our low cost squad of loans and free transfers.

[Stan1972]

Once Birmingham hit form they will win L1 by 10-15 points, and will prob have the 2 x top Goalscorer’s in L1 in May & Stansfield
Will def prove too strong for almost all L1 teams this season.

In RW we trust, squad is looking strong, and we still have Graham & Theo to return.

Of course we couldn't....new owners have come into BRFC and are chucking money in because they can AFFORD it.

Unfortunately it looks like it , yes .

Put the millions of your personal money into the club then. It sickens me that people just say 'should invest more'.

Money doesn't grow on f*****g trees...maybe you would like Bechetti back? So many ungreatful 'fans' we have.

But that's just the point , they won the game and 3 points . Can't help feeling a manager as good as Richie deserves better .

Grow up you pair of bedwetters. We have a strong , versatile, talented squad. Wellens has exactly what he wanted. Stop whinging and get behind the team.

Thank you. Makes you laugh fans call for money, money, money yet look what's happened before.

[Hoover Attack]

Be interesting to know how much they paid for him. It’s a strange decision from Watford, there’s definitely a Championship player there. I’d have thought he was worth holding onto for another season at least and seeing how he went.

[Hoover Attack]

Also, just seen that Ruel has only started 1 game for Rovers this season.

I know money talks but he’d have had more game time here under Richie’s new 2 up top formation.

[Top of the JES]

We could not compete on wages.
