“I would have liked to have thought we would have got it done by today but it is close and there is a lot of negotiations going backwards and forwards,” Adkins told BBC Radio Humberside.

“When you’re talking about players you want to attract, they’re always trying to get, and clubs are always trying to get the best deal for themselves.”

“We [himself and vice-chairman Ehab Allam]had a very good conversation, we were together in the room for five hours.”, he added.

“There is a genuine desire to get it done but likewise you have to understand it is a challenging period as we all know, but we want to get it done early and we don’t want to leave it until the last minute.”

I hope you all understand Ehaw signs players at the very last minute to save paying their salaries and their travel expenses to Portugal.
If he were to sign 6 players now that would be a waste of money in his eyes as they can't play until August.
Best run club in the league and all that.
So Adkins has no chance of any incomings before 1 July.
Who needs preseason training !

I'm surprised Ehab has not cancelled it, no point having a preseason with half a team.
 
Surely we cannot be offering very favourable terms if it is taking this long to sort out. Until he signs I won't believe it. Anyway that is just one player when we need a good few more. It seems to get worse every year.

Unfortunately Moses has already rejected the offer, and is out of the building. Got to feel for the lad as he will by some be chastised for not showing loyalty to the club after such a long period out, which I get. However the players will show no loyalty when miserly contracts are offered with the added worry that the squad will only continue to be depleted. These are merely charades by the club to look from the outside they are trying to secure resources if Moses or indeed Abel did take them up on their offers they would do their utmost to derail them. Moses's career needs to get back on track as I believe he would have shone in the ilk of Robertson had he had the chance in the Prem.
Abel has a grudge with Ehab therefore would never sign a contract, not only did Ehab instruct the Manager to leave him out of the squad for the remaining games which in some warped way would make him sign, he informed a Chinese club he had a year left on his contract which quelled his ambition to play out in China. Ehab does not only **** the fans over his staff have to endure his ****wittery also

Not bothered about this one. Shame, but two years out with injury, not worth the risk when we know we’re only likely to have one player per position if we’re lucky.

..... even though Nige stated he wants 2 per position, comprising 20 outfield players, plus goalies and a smattering of youth to making it, was it, 27 or 28 total for 1st team squad ....... and to have the squad in place by 25th June. That's what he actually said.
How long before he walks (or ideally fills in E-**** then walks)?

Just wondering, we all know about knobhead jnr and his track record, beginning to wonder if there's a feeling with a lot of the senior pro's that have left /leaving that with previous managers there was a buffer between the dressing room and Ehab which kept him at arms length from them, but know with Nige maybe that buffer's is no longer there.

There's zero ****ing chance of him leaving, whatever happens this window.

I dont think he'll walk (even with all the Ehabery).

I think he's lucky to have got this job after his stints at Sheff Utd and Reading and he knows that he'd struggle to get a job at this level again.
 
It's a sad state when Moses would rather chance his arm and reject a contract extension without securing a move elsewhere. With a potential move to Villa now in the balance due to their ongoing financial affairs its indicative of the clubs state that players are prepared to walk out after 2 years injured
