Summer transfer thread

I think @Bob the Mackem said Marwood was working on a deal with us or words similar. Maybe that’s something else of course but he knows Marwood

 

I wouldnt want to join a club that would have me as a member, ( Groucho )

 

Thing is I'm sure we didn't even no about his long throws when we had him, it only seemed to surface we he was at stoke

 

I certainly think our style of play would suit him. He would be a brilliant signing if it happened, but I must say I have no idea if it is even a remote possibility. I am just dreaming about it.

 

Deodrant02 hinting speakman has messed up the broadhead deal. Anyone know if its true?

 

Do you think the club could have hinted this to O9, hence his poor performance yesterday? Didn't see the match so maybe clutching at straws here like...

 

No one could possibly know that, certainly couldn't prove or disprove the claim.

Some people just have a downer on Speakman they can't shake off imo.

 

That is not true mate, it's still ongoing till Monday night

 

What is?

 

Oh sorry, didn’t see that. We’ll here’s hoping.

 

Think he meant to reply to the post about Speakman messing it up. I’d take both like but out of the two I’d go for this Everton striker

 

The Championship would be ideal for his growth and what better team to go to with as you say the style you have and the support at the SOL.
Kompany may have a go at him for Burnley but Delap hasn’t got 6 fingers.

 

Broadhead not in contention again today, he's either really out of favour or injured.

 

probably injured

 

Yep. Let him be somebody else's problem.

 

Or driving down the A55 to pick up his tin opener to take up to Sunderland

 

Usually the case…

 

I admit to still have lingering doubts about him mate. All related to Keane and Defoe. Somebody had stars in their eyes for a few weeks for sure. In my opinion neither should have been given any consideration at all. Everything else since he bas been here - spot on. I just have a worry about him being prone to a bit of silly season.

 

To be fair, we have no far down the line it was with Keane, other than people on social media saying it was done, when it wasn't. Defoe most fans seem to want, but it never worked out

 

I think the point about fans wanting Defoe is sort of why I have a lingering doubt. Johnson clearly didnt want him, I was certainly bang against it and others were too. He hadnt played any serious football in 2 years and in reality was never going to be able to. It is the job of those in charge to make informed and rational decisions. Then to walk away like he did was an insult. Maybe Speakman was under pressure to do the deal from above? But to me it was very naieve and I hope people have learned from it.
