Transfer Rumours January '22 Transfer Thread

I'm an old ****er, what do you expect?

 

Keane Lewis-Potter
Can confirm that Brentford have failed in their attempts to tempt City into doing big business for Keane Lewis-Potter. The 20-year-old will remain at the club for the remainder of the season and will not be leaving before today's 11pm deadline.

That is a huge, huge boost.

 

How times have changed.

 

And why shouldn't he be?

 

I am out of town at the moment old chap. Back in the City on Saturday.

 

Or pep thought he was ???

 

Bit disappointing the news outlets are announcing these way before the club, especially considering we’re now owned by an ex football reporter and media mogul.

 

Bang on !!!

 

Perhaps we got Longman cheaper because we had paid a loan fee for the whole season.

 

I don’t think we’d have been allowed to do that in summer?

 

Is it the original Brian from the 1980's? He'd be in his 70's now, if it is I hope he has improved from when he cut my hair.

 

Not really surprising though as these things get out on to social media as soon as they happen. Friends, family, agents or hair dressers can release what they want and when, whereas the club want photos taken etc and sometimes want to announce more than one player.

I don’t really care, as long as it’s done.

 

Despite Acun’s vast media acumen, sadly, he doesn’t yet control all media sources.

Stories have been breaking prior to official confirmation at every club since I can remember.

These days, Deadline Day is Christmas Day for SSN and agent spiel.

 

Never forget the barbers !!! Overhear a lot as they sit in the chair !!!!

 

He’s one of my 26 favourite city players… my memory loss won’t let me remember the other 25…

 

I think the business today is a really good start. But I also think any chance of us getting the play-offs are gone. We've made a young squad even younger and we just lack that little bit of creativity, that sort of ability to win a game out of nothing which is why I was hoping Babel/Pelkas would be in the door.

January is a nightmare of a month to do business in, nobody really wants to move mid-season but we've strengthened a fair amount

 

Days not over yet.

Still think we will bring 2 maybe 3 more in today still over 7 hours to go.

 

We know Allahyar, Forss and Longman are all done, I'd imagine Ashby will be too.

Maybe if we're lucky we might get 1 more but who knows. All the signings so are 21 or under apart from Forss who's 22.

 

Don't count Longman as a signing or Slater.

 

I wonder why the club hasn't announced them yet? Are they planning to do everything at once if it is actually done?
