I was gutted when Duncan left for Blackburn, but we did go on to win the play-offs, Jan, i'm still getting over that. How far have we fallen!  No

Not been this worried about a sale since shearer and jan the man were rumoured to be on the way. And that ended well. Oh.

Agreed I think as Spencer said earlier in the thread things would go into meltdown and there would be a huge shift in feelings against Fitton and co. Not advocating that but football fans are very fickle and Fitton would face the prospect of undoing every bit of good work that has been done over the last 3 years.

I really can't see him going, saw him and his Dad at the pre-season game versus Poole, they're very happy at Swindon, it'd take a bigger club to come knocking, that's for sure.

A sale would fit in with the business model, of developing young players and selling them on. I suppose it will depend on whether a buyer meets the asking price....which I would have thought would be in the Cox range. 

If it is he'll be gone......

Yes but we've already lost Paynter and sold Greer so far this summer. To lose our best player (or more to the point our hottest prospect) at this stage would be stupid. Money or not we can't be that short. We sold Henshall for 250k and Greer for a sum thought to be around that mark as well. So we're already looking at 500k netted through player sales this summer. Why do we need to sell Austin? And if we do sell we're up shit creek in terms of the playing side. I'd have hoped Fitton as a footballing man who takes a lot of interest in that side of things would not be stupid enough to sell.

People seem to forget that in his professional career VP has scored nearly as many goals as Austin has.

He'll come good, and be our 20 goal a season man once Charlie has gone.

True, but it has taken him 150 games to get there, it took Charlie less than 40.

There were lots of rumours about Charlie over the summer and all turned out to be bollocks. The easiest solution I can see is for Fitton to say "Fuck off"
