Who fancies a sweepstake on our opponents in Portugal? I'm going to go for Spartak Moscow. If it's not Dukla Prague then I will eat my replica away shirt (that I got for Christmas a few years back)

No idea mate, was just relaying what was being released on twitter. We will have to wait for sarge for any juicy gossip EDIT Wes Thomas will be ready for pre season, Arron Martin will probably be fit for the start of the season, Ashby likely to be 'out' for most of the forthcoming season It sounded like he would probably have been released were it not for the injury. DE said that it was the right thing to do to give him a new contract while he recovers from his injury.

Don't believe everything you see in the papers. Wasn't this announced by the old OxVox crew? I think they were pressed for details at the time but none were forthcoming. If the above fro DE is true, then you can see why!

I know you have problems believing our current chairman so its a surprise you have trust in Kelvin Thomas.

I don't think I've expressed an opinion on who I have "trust" in on this. I'm simply flagging up a contemporaneous press article which appears to contradict a claim made in the AGM made last night.

The selling off of one player a season makes financial sense. But since this almost certainly means selling the best player each season this will rely heavily on finding new talent every season as well. Not a good recipe for success I would have thought.
Again although the budget may be top 6 or 7 but the indications are that the players already here or to be recruited will require a lot more wages (Dunkley) and this in turn suggests that the squad might not be much bigger than it was last season. A failure that cost us dear then.
The plan might work (and I really hope it does), but we shall have to wait and see.

That was nice of DE to applaud OxVox in their dealings with Ka$$am.
“If the supporters’ trust can’t persuade Firoz to help the club then probably no-one can. We are all as frustrated as each other about the situation."

KT was well known to say the right things, in reality the opposite was happening like selling off the executive boxes on the cheap without IL knowing and therefore screwing us over for income over the season.

Indeed. A very good point to make about how perception can be quite different to reality.

I wasn't there but I'm very wary of these apparent quotations and the inferences put on by various parties with their pro/anti agendas.
