Fellow’s the assist king and fullbacks can’t get near him. Maja and he look like their coming up with some partnership.

If he continues on this trajectory then he will go for big money in the summer which will be vital financially for the club.

Everybody knows what he’s going to do but it seems nigh on impossible to stop him.

Not many cross a ball as good as he does, so consistently at any level. Keep it up Tom.

There'll be a lot of eyes on this talented home grown lad now. If he stays injury free and carries on playing well the club will get a tidy transfer fee and Fellows will get himself a bumper new contract. It's not a fluke because this is the second part-season where he's been doing the business. Onwards and upwards.

He only has the one move but he seems impossible to stop then once he's passed he consistently delivers.

I think he will top the assist charts this season if he carries on this way.

Moves to defender, engages them to take them out, pulls away, crosses. So simple it's genius.

Antonio Valencia made quite the career of having the same move. Long may his brilliance continue

A bit harsh to say he only has one trick in him too. I disagree.

One of these players i am going to enjoy watching whilst i still can, I'm convinced he's destined for the top. That stoke left back today had the run around, i bet he was glad to see him go off.

Why do some on here keep on about 'someone will snap him up etc' why would we sell, why cant we just keep our young players and build for the future? Our owner wants to keep him i remember him stipulating, could be wrong on that, i think our new owners will spend sensibly when our books balance, they've done a great job in a short time inc the brilliant CC
By the way Tom might not want to leave anyway certainly not if we got promoted

I guess it's because he may have a release clause but as you say he may be happy to stay here this season he would probably get more game time than if he joined a Premier team.
All down to how young Tom feels about it.

Because to believe we wouldn’t sell is just fanciful thinking.

We’re a club where resources are extremely tight and cutting cloth accordingly.

Selling Fellows for a massive amount next summer allows us to reposition the clubs finances and rebuild all areas of the squad.

That’s the nature of the beast.

Not quite in the exact same scenario but similar ball park to Blues selling Bellingham to secure a long term future. We’re not in as bad as position as blues found themselves but still not in a position to just turn down real finance changing amounts.

If TF is as good as we think he is, we should hold on to him until one of the elite come in for him, we should not sell to an Ipswich / Everton for them to move him on for a fortune

A smart club would realise that you could probably get him for £8m-£10m if you bid this side of September. You feel his value is only going to go up by next summer.

Praying we hold on to him.

If we have any aspirations of success it's imperative we move heaven and earth to keep him here. We'd have lost yesterday without him....don't forget we were lucky with them hitting the woodwork twice. And why take him off with so long left??

I think he is a very good player, not just one trick but he does use the same trick a lot….second half he started to cut back in a bit more….maybe to mix it up but didn’t seem as effective.
Clever footballer though and the biggest single difference between him and others is that he actually looks up before playing the ball.

Fair comment. I was there yesterday and he does have much more than one trick but point taken.

The money we could potentially end up with next season allows us to compete with those relegated clubs and have a genuine chance of going up. That is without considering the wider impact on our finances.

We never self financed our club property when we held onto the likes of Mulumbu, Dorrans, Olsson etc longer than we needed to and their value diminished. We then never had the funds to rebuild again. We can’t and won’t make the same mistake here.

If he’s ever going to go for huge money and player for a top clubs he needs to do more of that, do it effectively and probably add more goals.

His usually trick and likely stats at this level will probably get him a 15-20m move but I think prem full backs are generally so much better that’s he’ll be figured out. He’s in a great position to kick on and add to his game though. His trajectory over the past 12 months has been steep and he’s probably now the first player on the team sheet.

Where have you been for the last few years not to understand the club are in severe economic distress. Our expenditure is limited and controlled with a plan supervised by the football administrators. £20million
will give the club freedom to become master of its destiny in the future under our new owners :o
