Does that mean the EFL will let us have 12 players on the pitch if we sell Ricky Holmes? If not, I can't quite see how two replacements for Holmes would help much.
Robinson said Holmes is unsettled & not himself. He was due to sit down with him today. Last Saturday he told a fan that he couldn’t guarantee Holmes would not be flogged in January.
He seemingly hasn’t been up to scratch the last couple months. Tired, recovering from injury, or engineering a move on the sly?
Hard to disagree, but I think we haven’t seen enough return for the new contracts he and in particular, mag signed this summer.
We can only hope the new owner is in place when the next transfer window opens, otherwise Aribo and Fosu will be straight out the door.
This is the latest from Rich Cawley. Sheffield sources telling me that Ricky Holmes set to be at Sheffield United game tonight. Question of when deal happens more than if now. #cafc Have we got any players for tomorrow?
Bexley pm'd me saying Holmes has family in Sheffield and he wants to attend the game. He's on the 9.30 to Manchester tomorrow.
Unless a fee is agreed. If it’s not then there could be a bigger issue unraveling. He’s apparently a very popular member of the dressing room so I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt that he isn’t ****ing over his team mates. I then fear it would be a case where they support his decision which is worrying. Conspiracy theory, of course.
