Indeed, why sell now and not hold out until the end of the window? Give us time to get in replacements. Last year everyone complained MT went at the end of the window. Now we're complaining BBB went at the beginning. More like the club are desperate for the cash!

Good luck Billy,walk proudly out the front door son.Thankyou for your goals and buzz you gave our fans when you were in possession. Disappointed as I am to lose a player that is of the quality we need to get to the next level ourselves you are right about him leaving through the front door. Transfer very early in the window gives us a chance to replace with another up and coming player, (something we couldn't do last year after the Snake left for the shitpit on the last day of the window. Over to the owners now, this transfer window will tell us a lot.

Let's hope that Byron Moore can finally fulfil his obvious potential now!

Suggests fairly nominal fee I would have thought. UTG! I suspect more than a nominal fee as more than one club interested ...as he clearly wanted to go not much the club can do. We will move forward and still good news re training ground even if announcement was timed to take the sting out of the news. Good luck to the lad ... Agree with what you’ve said about him. Good luck to him, hope he does well, at least he should play. But still think it’s likely to be nominal fee, but you may be right. But with all this undisclosed stuff we might never know. Perhaps someone itk will tell us next week. 😉 UTG!

This time now will define the club and the current owners. For the next couple of years. If dc doesn’t get the money he needs and if dc gets it right with the signings(not like Luke James/Byron Moore/Nichols) and I know he’s got it right when we were in non league but the step up now is much greater...
Fingers crossed wael shows us what his intentions are and if not it’s a nail in the coffin if we end up with loans or more duff budget players

Now we're complaining BBB went at the beginning. nobodys complaining he’s going that was obvious,hamer- let’s just announce that the colony is going ahead before we sell our best player that will soften the blow 2 years later it will still be a empty field but full of brambles again Good luck to billy he deserves it,it’s the toasters the run the club that water me off If it was obvious he was going, what difference does the colony announcement make? All this smokescreen stuff is bullshit. It doesn't hold up to a moment's scrutiny. What is it even supposed to be screening? The club has said all along that the colony will be developed. We have all known for a while that BBB was going to PNE (or somewhere else). What does announcing them at a similar time even achieve? What are we goldfish? Oh colony, oh colony, oh colony, BBB's gone, oh colony, oh colony...

He's a rare commodity in football a two footed player.
Probably the most skillful Rovers player I've seen in 37 years of following the Gas.
Good luck Bill, you'll be sorely missed but thanks for the wonderful memories.

Let's hope DC does well for us in the window.

Will we find out for how much when the 2017 Audited accounts are published? Hopefully very few other sales in the financial year to cloud the position.

Oh colony, oh colony, oh colony, BBB's gone, oh colony, oh colony... That's surely one for SH/Wael to answer as they made the announcement at a similar time, they must have know BB was going to sign today so why release The Colony announcement at 7pm tonight. I guess the real proof in the pudding will be how much DC is given to spend from BB's sale to strength the squad.

Just have a sinking feeling there will be another leaving before the end of jan and if so and no permanent quality coming in equals us going down.... Hope I’m wrong

Good luck to him. I enjoyed watching him play for us. Let’s hope DC gets some money to spend. Presumably we don’t want the fee known so other clubs can’t just increase their price knowing how much we’ve got to spend. Got 4 weeks to get at least one quality replacement
