i hope not, it is good to see fans of other clubs joining in and as far as i can remember you have asked questions and offered opinions and i have not seen you simply throw abuse around. there are a good amount of opinions going round about us and many have little to no idea about our recent past (much like yourselves, div 3 = forget them) but we went through a few years of stinking the premier out and escaping the drop by the skin of our teeth to then get taken over by the chuckle brothers and saw everything possible get sold. since this new lot have taken over the change in the club is amazing, any money spent has been used to improve everything without 'spending to escape' and we have all seen and suffered that, might work for a season or two but rarely long term if it ever has...so i make no apologies for getting a wee bit excited so soon in the window but the majority of our support (the sensible ones) know we are facing a battle to even stay up and we know it is going to be a long slog, we are not under any illusions but our new leadership has gained itself a LOT of trust and we know they will not go stupid with the spending. plenty have said it but i want leeds and us to do well, if burnley stay up as well then i am happy with that, i also hope we improve and 'join' with the likes of forest, brentford, bournemouth etc and aim to make it harder for the top six...both us and leeds have been at the top, would be nice to get back there. apologies for the rant but i'm a bit excited
I’ve said before I’m happy with Mayenda and Isidor. We need a third striker for sure but I’m not convinced it’s a priority area for spending big bucks. Would rather that money went at centre back
No way we’ve said we’d only pay 20 for him. We either haven’t bid or we haven’t negotiated fully yet. He is absolutely worth more than 20 and club ain’t stupid. Lyon have stayed up but still need dollar be mid 20’s to get him. We see. Abdullai could do something anyway. We have t seen him yet but the noise is very promising.
So if the budget is only €20m for a striker I can see us signing a young talent who’s played some senior games from Belgium or France. Similar to Talbi. Who can come in a compete with Isidor and Mayenda rather than displace them
yeh that tweet to me reads like a negotiation by one of us. I don’t think it’s dead. But that said I never thought it felt likely. I think we can get value for less
I still think all our signings from here on in will be players we’ve not been linked to yet. Except maybe Henderson which is feeling more and more likely
If we’re haggling elsewhere or have moved the investment to other parts of the pitch it may be a good narrative or may be true. It’s an ever changing beast I’d imagine. No Prehab transfer balcony tonight. Must be raining or the kids have got Lanzarote belly.
Don’t believe the 20 mill bit considering what we’ve spent so far on wonder kids. Didn’t we bid 25 for albine?
