Small fee and a 10 per cent sell on fee wouldn't be such a bad deal |  |

What I've seen I thought this lad is what we needed a ball winner in the middle of the park |  | | |

Dunno if it's definite mate it was just something I read also his contract is up in the summer! I suppose it shows our young players can play to a good standard of football and clubs want them , which wasn't the case a few years ago | |

Comley has gone on a permanent deal undisclosed fee
Was he one of the players classed in our 31 man sqaud ? | |

No, one of the many, many other players not listed but still salaried. Another considered as a kid by many but actually, like Doherty, RGC, Petrasso etc, is 22/23 now.
Always had a lot of time for a London lad willing to go to first Carlisle and then Grimsby to play some regular football, two more remote, colder places from West London you'd struggle to find. Good luck to him. |  | | |

Always thought he would have enough about him to be a squad option, especially with the likes of Boris not working out - apparently not... Good luck to him though and more good work trimming the squad.
Hopefully more following him out soon and if we can get fees, all the better. |  |

No real surprise. Nominal fee + sell on . Should he make it to a higher level.
So far this month , its been 6 out and none in. |  |

Best of luck to him. Another fee in for one of our ex-youth players. Good stuff. |  |

I am not sure there will be any in. I guess JET and Boris will go from the squad and a few more salaried youngsters that they feel may not come through. I think they want to shift at least 10 players. |  |

By which time the window will be shut (and any chance of any decent signings) will be gone.
I do hope not --- a signing (even one) that we have heard of and have to pay an actual fee for usually seems to boost the morale of fans. | | | |

I would rather we didn't do a signing just for fans. Those days are over thank god. We work with what we have and promote from within wherever possible. If someone is brought in it must be for the future or for sell on value.
Unless we are there or thereabouts short term signings shouldn't be a part of our vocabulary. |  |

I didn't say "do it for the fans". I said a signing would be a boost for morale. Obviously the only sensible reason would be to improve the squad (and not signing anyone implies, at best, no improvement being chased).
As for Comley, I do think many fans have no idea just how good a footballer you have to be to play top level non-league football let alone play with a league club but we also accept there are levels with levels and Colchester (mid-table in League Two) is/should be some distance below QPR in terms of quality of players. So we can wish him good luck at his chance to keep earning a living playing football (something most fans know nothing about) but we also should accept that another product of the youth system has been moved on because he's just not good enough for us. And every time we get another one like this I wonder why time and money has been wasted on a system that has given us so little in return over the years. Especially when many of our "better" days were achieved by just plundering other clubs youth systems. And yes, some will mention the kids coming through but they are managing to do OK in a struggling and broke Championship club which might not be the highest testament to their development?

Do we really need to sign anyone?
Looks like we have enough to stay up now. What would be the point of spending considerable wedge in an attempt to finish 12th instead of 17th? Unless an unmissable opportunity comes up I think we'll stick with what we have and wait until the summer. |  |

Agreed
I've seen Comley play in person, and i really liked him. Thought he was confident on the pitch and had good work rate to him
It does say something, though, that after 3 loan spells in L2, a L1 team didn't come sniffing around.
League 2 is probably his level for now, but i think he'll probably play at a higher level | | | |
