    Good luck to him.
    I noticed yesterday in the tweet announcing Watt's departure that there was no 'thanks and all the best Elliott' message like there was when Paudie and Charles left. I thought maybe they'd just forgotten but now they've done it with Sam as well, I'm starting to wonder if it was deliberately left out.

    i know he was still under contract, but to get a fee, even if it is only a few thousand. I thought we might have to pay him off.
    Good luck to the lad and well done to the club.

    Good luck to him. He seemed to start when he first went but then ended up on the bench. Hope he gets the number 1 slot for a run of games.

    Good luck to him. Arrival of Doyle signalled his time was up but he always had a good attitude here and never moaned so, for that, I wish him well at CUFC.

    Not a surprise. Hopefully he gets a good run as a number 1. If we've got a fee for him, all the better.

    We've witnessed that phenomena at City, to be fair.

    Players grow in the minds of some fans the less they're played lol

    Twin Grandsons will be happy, when not swanning around the Emirates with dad, daughter takes them to Colchester occasionally, getting in on “ family” deals. I wonder if they will each wear one of my City shirts?

    Yes the Watt remarks weren’t called for, Hughes got the best out of him and I can’t imagine treated him badly he always gave him a hand shack and arm round him after a game. Probably Watt didn’t think much of his comments, naively imo as I found them disrespectful. But I suppose they were comments for his new club not us, and he couldn’t say I can’t wait to get started with this massive club lol. It’s certainly interesting that he wasn’t thanked by the club when all others were, a sign of his popularity perhaps?

    Their fans seem pleased. Bit funny as he didnt always start there, despite them praising him when he did..

    Devastated, no surprise his initials are the same as "safe hands".

    One of our all time greats, we won't forget you Sam.

    Probably covered what we paid him off.
    A net neutral cost.

    Good luck to the lad hard to judge the kid during his time at the club when it was in such disarray.

    Good luck, Sam!

    A move makes the most sense, and Colchester isn't a bad move all things considered!

    You can't send them to Colchester in a City shirt, lol, but I like the idea!
