Challinor has ended up on skybet at 10/1. Bit random for a name with zero links to enter with these odds no? I don't have much clue about betting odds mind
He appeared as joint favourite on Bet Victor last night. Doesn’t mean a great deal but there’s definitely been no links so far.
 
At this point it would only take one person to lump on him to spook the bookies into putting him on.
he hasn’t been on the market at all until yesterday so there must’ve been a request and then a decent bet placed…
 
Have to say. He agreed to join us over a week ago now, we may have agreed something but if not and we’re still being strung along I’d be looking at the best plan B before we also miss out on them and if he changes tack and agrees well and good. I hope we’re doing that now. People like Rosenior agreeing to join Brum apparently, to me he’s a better choice but if not probably the next best but because Still is being flaky they’re getting themselves sorted elsewhere.

I saw a fake Pete O'Rourke tweet saying this yesterday. Not seen it anywhere else. Have you?

Don't think Rosenior needs to drop to League One.

Still was 4/1 iirc on Friday after the news broke about him turning us down, now he’s back at 11/4 on sky bet so money has gone on him again, not a significant amount. It hasn’t changed in the last few days since Robinson entered the market at 3/1.

Sky bet is the market we need to keep an eye on.
 
This is why I think we should take itk posters with a pinch of salt. There has been very little to say our deal with Still is resurrected, the last news about him and us was the deal is off last week. Then yesterday the Lens director confirmed Will Still was one of their options.

But we have ourselves convinced that we're back in the race to get him.

I would say the Lens director comments were far from hopeful in relation to Still mind. At best they are nowhere near an agreement. That’s not saying they won’t reach one or we will but mistake from it was the opposite to yours.

Tbf, there was nothing tying us to still but the "ITK" posts on here then all of a sudden he did actually agree to join us before it collapsed which is what the posters were saying on here.

You should always take itk comments with a pinch of salt as football changes so quickly

When people are sharing info its just being passed on in good faith from what theyve been told. Doesnt mean itll def happen

I was told similar to @Magnus about us being back in advanced talks with on the weekend, there was def more positivity that the deal gets done than it was on Friday

But until the contract is signed then no1 will know for sure other than Still himself

Def had more positive messages about still coming over the last couple days after it appeared to be off on Friday

Lets see what this week brings
 
poster on RTG seems to think "throwing the kitchen sink at him hasn't worked"
 
There’s a bunch of people , couple on here, largely on RTG, saying Lens sound a mess fan revolt and financial, he’s better here , then wanting a protest and KLD out and everyone sacked. Thick as whale spunk.
You're one of the best posters on both boards (North and South Korea)

You usually come out with what I intend to say, which saves me a job.
