Wilson was asked a direct question and gave an answer.  Nothing wrong with a bit of honesty.  Maybe he expects the fans to understand that we don't always, always get what we want?  It's a bit like life really.  I want four steaks for my dinner - I'll more than likely only get one.

Unless you have a better replacement steak lined up.

A sirloin instead of a rib steak.

To be fair that is all we need. A CB and a LM. Possibly another striker but that's probably being a bit too picky.

I was mocking the Adver, DW says it could easily be just one but they still went with 4.

This paper selling racket eh.

I'd sell almost any steak for £250,000.  I'd sell most centre backs for that too, if I'd been subbing the club out of my own pocket for the past few years.

You'd have to offer me twice that before I sell a T-bone though.

Yes, but you arent in a competitive sport.

If we have a shit season we will probably lose 250k in revenue anyway - leaving us no better off.

Every decision in sport comes at a risk.  They weighed up the value of the deal against the impact it could have on the pitch, and decided that it was worth selling.  I still trust the people running this club enough to think that if they thought it was in the best interests of the club, they were probably right.  They've not got much wrong since being in charge, have they?

It's not always as black and white as you seem to see the world, Dave.

Once again you're speaking from a position of relative ignorance. None of us know exactly what went on between Greer/Brighton/Wilson/Fitton that led to the transfer, and I can't believe it was as simple as the club just waving him off.

You also keep banging on about not replacing him and yes, in hindsight Wilson should have (Which he's admitted) but we're also quick to slag DW off when he doesn't play the players we already have. LJF and Cuthbert both played well in central defence last season and Morrison is an exciting young prospect; they deserved their chance. It hasn't worked, we know it and Wilson definitely knows it (It's his job, innit?)

Let's wait and see what transfers we manage before Tuesday.

Please don't bring logic and reason into this debate.

Thank you

We need two good defenders and a forward.  Expectation has gone up and rightly so. Its be driven up by Wilson , the board , last seasons play , and Wembley.  Millwall got up having failed the year before, so we can do it.  But they kept the same squad together we have a totally new team which needs to gel.  That was the Wembley effect.  Wilsons been confident about the side up till now, and the board have. We all saw what we were capable of last term, we rightly think we can go forward now. Its a natural progression , the next step up.  Football is expensive now, people  expect well paid footballers to deliver the goods.
