If he's being sold then why the hell would he play one last game?
I know keepers are less likely to get injured but I don't see the point in taking the risk.
If he's definitely being sold then I cannot see him playing today. I'm really disappointed to see him leave but i get the reality of living within our means. I assume this means that another keeper will be coming in, maybe Sam Johnstone on loan as we were rumoured to be after him a couple of days ago?
Sam Johnstone has signed for notts forest season long loan or so they say!
Sky are reporting that Marshall is not in the squad today and that we have accepted a bid of £3.5m, but if he has been sold then there is no way sky would know the figure, I reckon if he is sold the fee will be undisclosed :thumbup:
I saw a claim on **** that Johnstone had signed for Forest - but can't see any press reports to support that - and nothing official. The most recent press item I have seen says Cardiff are a more likely destination:Quote:

What a shambles!!
We sell the cover goalie last week and now the first choice this week?
Laughing stock we are.
Choo delman and tan "............hilarious!!.......... If it wasnt so tragic for us
You sound like my kids used to when they were very young and I told them they couldn't have something. They've since grown up and realised how the world works. I'm looking forward to this moment happening for you so you won't be so upset all the time.Quote:

Then I hope we've the balls to say Marshall has to play - he's still our player at this moment in timeQuote:

He might look back on his last two seasons here with regret. He should have stayed in the Premier League when we dropped out.Quote:

Good luck to him, he will be very fondly remembered.
It's generally an accepted part of contract talks and the selling club would be stupid to play someone who is leaving. We decide to sell, the cash is halfway through the door and we risk it for one game early in the season when a slight strain could scupper the deal?Quote:

However, he's in the twilight of his career, hopefully this move will set him up for good. You won't hear any sob-stories from Marshall in years to come as to how he's skint and blew it all, unlike so many modern footballers..
Thanks Marshall, great professional and servant of this club! :ayatollah:
Maybe Wilson to start and Marshall on the bench?Quote:

I seriously hope we have not accepted 3.5M.Quote:

Agree with this, it's just surprising we had two extra seasons from him as he's our only Premiership level player.Quote:

Was it 2 years ago some were rating him at £15m though?
Never thought that was realistic but £7-8m would have been about right imo.
Good luck Marshall
:old: Twilight !!! He's only 31. We're doomed!Quote:

Good keepers are few & far between, City's next move for a keeper is crucial. Dimi it is then :yikes:
Wilson starts in goal according to the BBC, Amos on bench.
You complete plank.......name me another club that sells both its first team goalies in 7 days one on a match day and ends up replacing them with a loanee from a div one team. WE ARE A SHAMBLES !!!!Quote:

Yeah Chepstow - stop whinging. You've paid £x to see a team that has sold it's two best goal keepers in the space of seven days. If anything, you should be writing a thank-you e-mail to Tan for having the foresight to sell £4m worth of goalkeepers in the space of a week. That £4m is badly needed to pay for the financial mess that the club is in, of course through no fault of Vincent Tan.Quote:
