Let's hope Grimes does actually get a game wherever he goes, rather than become yet another English player to disappear without trace after their dream move.

He won't play much I will wager.

Play reserve football before a loan to the Championship or League 1.

Who was that Crewe midfielder Man Utd signed, and hasn't been seen since?

Nick Powell?

Correct. He's out on loan at Leicester at the moment, where he's struggling to get a game.

Edit to add: according to the Torygraph, Leicester have sent him back to Mould Trafford because he can't be bothered to train.

Thought Noone was about £125k and headless was the same, could have been £200, who the feck knows what does actually happen at the theatre of schemes nowadays?

Mason was reported as £250k and Noone was undisclosed but may well have been about the same money, so technically I might have been stretching the truth just a tad but Hugh deserves it, he is just about the biggest tw@ on here.

I guess the real issue is we got £400k for a player who is now back with us in the 4th division while you lost two players who are top class in the Championship and decent in the Prem, were it not for the likes of Hugh I would see that as a travesty, small clubs getting mugged by the big boys is all wrong.

The money for Grimesinho should be a major stabiliser for us, the long term survival of the club depends upon the ground being sorted, yes, even us Reds believe it is a disgrace, but that is just between thee and me. A million pounds should be easily enough to structure a deal through the Trust which would allow a conservative re-development of God's Little Acre, we have numpties who believe we need a 12k all seater, you have Tringy, a couple of tidy covered terraces and a 10k cap would see fine, the site doesn't lend itself to off field revenue streams, it could have if a little forethought had been around in the late eighties but that is water under the bridge, to do something spectacular now would cost far more than it would be worth.

Motorservices, tell me do you have a nine hundred quid camera at exeter? and if not, how do you manage to find good young players without one?

OH Dear! a last minute defeat to the mighty Stanley, how village.

Did they beat you boys? yeah gutting, but then today is the weakest we have been in months, Noble will be back next week

How did you boys get on against 10 for 65+ mins? surely you managed what Oxford did?

As for my Camara, it was actually £1195, its a fibra optic bore scope, 3.5 in colour screen, perfect for checking for cylinder wear without taking the head off, or checking crank end float without removing the sump

Joe Mason
Craig Noone
Jamie Mackie
Yannick Bolasie
Jason Puncheon
Ashley Barnes

You've got half a team there of yonug players we let go for next to nothing - you could add their transfer fees up and it would probably come to less that 1.75M. All playing in either the Prem or the Championship currently. That's what you get for letting Ridsdale infect your club.

Ben Tozer made i there too and he was deemed crap by us and snapped up by luggy at swindon for free. Lets not forget Jack Stephens and Certainly Sam Gallagher all whom left for peanuts and worh millions now to southampton.

I'd have a couple of bob om you to win the 4th division with that lot available.

Three defeats in a row for the Sid James boys, relegation might be on after all.

I don't usually go in for Grammar Police-style pedantry, but this one is most unfortunate.

Edit to reveal that you've done the same thing twice in the same sentence. Life must be one long struggle for you with your IQ level.

Yes one long struggle, IQ and Grammar are two very different things, come on, if you wanna have a dig at least make it half good
