Giles clearly isn't worth what we paid for him now, but I'm sort of surprised we're seemingly prepared to do a cut-price deal. Mostly because, with the way transfer fee amortisation affects FFP under the current rules, I think selling him for a loss will actually cost us money in FFP terms for this year rather than gaining us anything.

It would but it will actually cost us more keeping him here and him being about as much use as a wet paper bag.
 
He came on for Moses Simon, nice little Hull City connection for those who remember AS Trencin.

Thought he was quality in those Europa League games and was hoping we’d sign him at some point. Unfortunately, it never happened. He’s had a decent career though.

Sorba got a 20 minute run out, next Nantes game is next Sunday. Hopefully. we can get something sorted out with Huddersfield this week, who can recall him from his loan at Nantes to sell him to us and negate the Nantes summer buy option.

Any idea how much Nantes buy option is? I think Huddersfield wanted a decent amount in summer
 
You’d have to be batshit crazy to send a talented player like Barry to Millwall, he’ll have far better options.

You'd be surprised. They probably had better offers than Stockport County last time, it just depends on what guarantees the club can offer in terms of playing time and who can match the wage contribution being demanded by Villa. As Millwall have just landed a load of money and need a winger, meaning Barry would be first choice, it just seemed like the logical choice.

You'd think anybody in the top 10 would want him, but then they wouldn't be there without good players already, so can they offer the playing time without shifting out a member of their first team? Then you're into the middle pack which is more likely but funds are tighter.

I hope not, I really liked the look of him. I think his initial ban is until the end of next season, but we should find out the verdict of the appeal soon.
Same here... and from a purely financial perspective, im still hanging on what the two Southern American football pod casters said about him.
