After stealing £7.5m from Reading for Aluko I’d pay £8m for Jota without a second’s hesitation. He was the best opppoistion player I saw at Craven Cottage last season!

No No No !!! If this is true, I would be mortified to think that a club I love and supported for over 30 years, would not for a second take a look at themselves and think hey! This may not be a good idea. I understand everyone has a price and as much as it hurts me to say, we are a selling club, but this will have a long term impact on the fans. What happened to the john terry loyalty and that jota would only move to a premier club and the club would only take what he was worth ! If this transfer happened it’s like having two knives stuck in our backs one by jota ! And the other by the club. Fulham must be laughing their socks off. Give the fans some respect and do the right thing . Gutted! !!!! Jason W.

Jota, as I have stated previously, should not have been given the rope granted to him by the club; he should have been given a good talking to and calmed down, to see out his agreed service for BFC , offered a month off to sort out his personal issues and not pampered with a disappearing act back to Spain.
You can’t tie a professional down, these days, by expecting such favours to buy loyalty; life just doesn’t work like that.
If his contract allows a buy out/ transfer, that’s just professional business; this is not the era of Victorian ethics!
He’s going, one way or another, to play somewhere else.
What is this silly , primitive issue with Fulham; a fifty year old issue with QPR and a ground negotiation, where all the participants are either dead, or in bathchairs, it’s crazy, forget it!
what imaginary ill or insult has infected the minds of some; I guess something has got to be invented, to replace tribal warfare, or coshing people on a Sunday drinking night, in a medieval London!

Lets be honest Brentford have always been a SELLING club, every half decent player has been moved on for hard cash most of which has never been ploughed back in to give the supporters anything to cheer about. So isn’t it obvious why Fullers brewery support Brentford it’s their gain when as so often happens…We have to drown our sorrows in gallons of London Pride, Thats true business acumen. Why aren’t these real businessmen running the club after all we supporters support both the club and the brewery financially
