Did we take our interest in any of those U23 trialist like Alabi further?

Plus what about the supposed sale of Tyler to Brighton?

Alabi Instagram bio says he’s a professional footballer at Coventry City :unsure: the Tyler deal was done to my knowledge hence why we’ve been trialing a new 23s keeper. Can 23s be signed anytime but not registered for the first team?

Would they still be allowed to play U23's if not registered with the club? I assume they could have them down as a trialist but i think there's a maximum time limit for a player to be on trial.

Not sure…the guy seems to think he’s been signed for about a month now but hasn’t played for the 23s in their first games or been announced by the club

Not gone anywhere, but notice Colby Bishop scored both goals in a 2-2 draw with Barrow today (Ipswich and PNE sniffing around him) He's a real tough nut and reminds me of Lucas Juke (lazy spelling) at Blues. Still early 20s and may be worth a look at. Not a pacy player, but looks horrible to play against and knows where the net is.

Signed him from Leamington as well.

They’ve got a good record of progressing strikers into or back into pro football. Bishop mentioned above, Josh March and Baker-Richardson. Before that Jacob Blyth I think
Danny Newton was Leam too, although via Tamworth to get to football league.

So, despite all the wind-up attempts.........(@Greggs, we're looking at you), we actually kept hold of our most important players this window.
Mind you, my mind was set at ease when big DB said "no way" are we selling anybody at teatime on the last day!!!!
He obviously hasn't looked at past history of the City, but good to think the management are all on the same page. Onwards and upwards. PUSB

I suppose this is the end of this “mega-thread” then. 237 pages of our lives we’ll never get back. Oh dear that sounds really more depressing than I was intending it to. Ah well

Reid had offers but the club wouldn’t let him go. Disappointing as doesn’t look like he’s going to be in consideration here even if Maatsen gets an injury
Interesting
I heard Hull City were also looking at Shippers and there was talk of Portsmouth doing the same
The lad himself wants to play so it's possible the club wanted a fee to allow him to move
I've not seen comparison numbers but I got the felling there was less movement between clubs apart from in the PL on the final day in this window

Da Costa I imagine is in the same scenario as Hilssner and Jobello now?

Premier league clubs spent £1.2bn. EFL clubs under £40m, down on the £180m of 2 years ago.

I guess Drysdale didn't go out due to injury, can't imagine we'd be loaning him to a NL league.
Wonder where Reid had offers for?

Fulham will have made up just under half of that £40m too.
