Closing down sale?
Yep Fisher will be crowing at the fact that despite the league position we have made a reasonable profit I am sure the other parasites will think OHH Good...fuck the future and fuck the team as long as the balance sheets look good...I see Slade now is the patsyGet ready for selling anything that moves and worth anything. Willis, Stevenson, Haynes, Harries. Then once the window closes anything else with value like the training ground. Now we are relegated we can concentrate on Fisher's 1 million+ profit.
Its ok we don't get it there anywayWho the f##k is going to attack the ball in the opposition area now!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is becoming absolutely ridiculous - we can't score and we're conceding 3/4 goals week in/week out - so we go and sell one of our few centre backs?! Absolutely disgraceful, why don't we just fold now.... there is nothing left of this club - there's not even a carcass left for SISU to dine on.
Fisher surely has to be torched out of the Ricoh next Tuesday
Its all well and good everyone saying they aren't bothered. He might not be the greatest but its hardly a squad overflowing with talent.
Would love to know if Slade had any knowledge of this or it is just presented to him as a done deal.
So top scorer Sordell sold, followed by next top scorer.
Remember Jutkievicz was sold in Jan when we were fighting relegation from Championship too.
I realise that we are already down this year (not mathematically, but realistically), but it seems that those in power are sanctioning sales which make absolutely sure of it...
Very similar circumstances to when we were relegated from the championship just on a far shitter scale. Who'd have thought that was even possible when we were left to fight relegation with Clive platt and a half fit Cody McDonald?!
Errmm, don't quite get some of the annoyance in this thread.
Surely we appealed the sending off because he was our player.
What if a deal hadn't been agreed with Rotherham? Surely you treat your player as your player until he is your player no more.
There was no guarantee that Rotherham or whoever were going to match any price we had on his head. We may not have been actively selling him, it could be Willis who wanted to go, but we wanted to keep him unless a decent enough offer came in for him.
Also don't get the selling him right now today anger. Surely better to sell him today rather than at this time tomorrow with no hope of a replacement.
Slade said he had finished with the defence side of things, but that was based on what we had. I would assume he will now look for a replacement.
As for Willis, not good, not bad, just average, but good luck to the guy. No-one can ever say he didn't always out the effort in and try his best.

Who the hell sells their captain on the last day of the window while fighting to survive relegation!? It's fucking imbecilic!
Christ, it's that bad even Clive Platt to do half a job up front with BEavon for us now!
It if the two bids were unacceptable then he was still our player and surely there was no guarantee that Rotherham would have come back with a third offer.I wouldn't have said it but for the fact I went on Facebook and saw: 'CCFC accept third bid for Willis.'
One story below posted an hour before said: 'CCFC appeal Jordan's red card.'
Just smacks of a massive joke really.
A club who has a poor defence and has been shipping in silly goals all season?Who the hell sells their captain on the last day of the window while fighting to survive relegation!? It's fucking imbecilic!
I would guess you have just hit the nail on the head, He will be informed in due course or read it the telegraph, a day after it happened or of course come on here and see it before. Due course will be the slowestIts all well and good everyone saying they aren't bothered. He might not be the greatest but its hardly a squad overflowing with talent.
Would love to know if Slade had any knowledge of this or it is just presented to him as a done deal.

JS needs a new handbag to add to her 3000 she already hasWho the hell sells their captain on the last day of the window while fighting to survive relegation!? It's fucking imbecilic!
I would sell him today rather than tomorrow.What would you do Otis, if you were CCFC and had a fan base on edge, then you'd just had two bids for a player?
Wait another day until the transfer window closes just in case, or make a comment about a player and probably agree to sell him about 45 minutes later?
It's just common sense, and the club don't have any of it.
Someone should ask fisher why do you sell your captain when your fighting to avoid relegation??I don't get the anger. There has been strong Willis rumours all month, so now he finally goes.
Slade has bought in two CB's and a RB, plus we have Stokes (sort of), Turnbull and Harries in the background.
If I had to pick one of the three strongly rumoured to leave (Stevenson, Harries and Willis) then from a resourcing perspective he's the best option.
The frustration and anger will absolutely be justified if tomorrow we've sold Willis, Stevenson and Harries/Haynes and bought nobody in. It will be evidence of a lack of invesment, planning and care for the club.
The key is Slade and his team having targets identified for when the above happens.
Been a rumour for a while that he isn't happy, so maybe this is Willis saying he wants off.I would sell him today rather than tomorrow.
If it has become clear today that he is going a new he wants to leave I would much rather do it today than tomorrow. That would give me a day to replace him if I needed to.
Maybe Stokes is on the way back. If he is back he can play centre half and suddenly it doesn't look so bad at all.
I think if we are going to moan it needs to be at the end of play tomorrow. Then we will know if it's been a good window or a bad one.
We can all second guess of course and assume and we may all be right, but I would rather reserve judgement until tomorrow.
Then the picture might be a lot clearer.
It if the two bids were unacceptable then he was still our player and surely there was no guarantee that Rotherham would have come back with a third offer.
Exactly!!Also, has Willis agreed terms yet? If the deal were to fall through, then people would say 'why didn't we appeal the sending off.'
We've just sold him. What on earth is the point in appealing his red card? Let me guess: 'Sorry CCFC fans, we didn't have enough time to sign any more players for our important relegation battle, because we were too busy faxing over Jordan's appeal... Even though we just sold him to Rotherham.'
Just another day as a Coventry fan... You literally couldn't make this shit up.
