Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window (28 Viewers)

[Viktor17]

This bullshit we've heard all summer of "players were after take time to complete" will be blown out of the water today after we see loads of deals happen over one day.

Yea because it’s the last day and selling clubs now have time pressure

[RoysterE17]

Will get 1 over the line today nothing like the 3 people are wanting

Now this is much more like it.

So it doesn't take time, just takes a desire from both sides to get it done.

 

[shmmeee]

Setting my expectations low. One reserve CB and that’s it. Think it’s too late to get anything of note done and Doug negotiates like fucks, nothing speedy.

It’s everything isn’t it. We can’t just click our fingers on July 1st and do all our preferred business.

 

[edgy]

Or....

 

[Speedie's Head]

Yes it’s frustrating reading multiple bids rejected etc.

Let’s see what’s state of play at 7pm.

but we have to remember it’s just not that easy, calibre of player we are now after, teams don’t want to sell, are waiting on replacing them, agents moving goal posts etc, again yes it’s frustrating at times, but it’s a process, not a quick super market sweep.

Interesting day ahead.

We're seen as a richer club now (although we aren't) so no favours!

Also we're not very competitive on the wages front so we have to work hard on persuading players to come

 

[SkyB]

Woolfenden in and Sheaf out is my prediction for the day…

 

[Deity]

Woolfenden in and Sheaf out is my prediction for the day…

We will do better than that …

 

[Speedie's Head]

Yep!

A reserve CB that will go into the first 11?

 

[TomRad85]

Anyway, I'm saying 3 in. Bookmark it and call me a c**t later, I'm off this mad house for a few days after today anyway.

 

[larry_david]

@GIMOC heard anything pal? Anything at all?

Deadline day is a pantomime. Clubs buy into it to keep fan interest high, that's what keeps us spending money. Whether or not deals are actually done on the last day is pretty much irrelevant.

Personally I'm expecting at least 2 in today, with Sheaf and Bassette going out. Still think it's possible MVE and/or Thomas could make a late move too. Suspect that Andrews/Obikwu/Perry getting loan moves hinges on whether we bring in first team ready reinforcements or not.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Mad how our whole season could hinge on what happens today isnt it?

Anyway, T-minus 11 hours.......

 

[Ccfcisparks]

woolfenden in

sheaf bassette and kids loans out

disappointing window overall i predict

 

[Cally Fedora]

Reading about yet another bid being rejected doesn’t fill me with much confidence

Get a grip. Get Woolfenden in and we’re fine.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Going to be a positive day.

Sheaf, Bassette out and some youth out on loan. Possible Allen out

In x2 CBs, CM, winger and striker

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

Mad how our expectations have changed. Not long ago, any window where we kept our first team together and bought anyone at all would have been lauded as a huge success.....

absolutely agree. You reckon Woolfenden is done? And hopefully sheaf out and a replacement and I’m happy tbh.

Woolfenden and a new dynamic CM makes us a lot better.


Oh and basette out on loan obviously. maybe a few more out on loan? Andrews and Obikwu have no place here. Currently

Have we actually had any bids for our first team this window other than MVE?

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

I’m confident we’re going to have a good day.

 

[Yorkshire SB]

Haha that's surely not going to happen

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

We've no idea do we, rejected bids wouldn't necessarily be reported

 

[Ccfcisparks]

We've no idea do we, rejected bids wouldn't necessarily be reported

much easier to keep your first team together when there’s no actual bids for them

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Here’s a classic to get you all warmed up for the day

 

[Marty]

Do an EMC style deal for that young CB. If he's as good as what we think he is, than it'll be worth it to get the deal over the line.

 

[JSL]

I am confident that Frank is singing from the same sheet as most of us. Another RB in, another LB in, better GK in, Collins out, Bassette out on loan / sold, Binks out, Sheaf going so a new club captain imminent. I am convinced a CB upgrade (maybe 2) and and a new forward is on the way today

 

[Briles]

Good thing about working from home is i can watch TDD and get progressively more angry throughout the day without the worry of having to pretend to smile

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

Ok you could argue that (although I think it's very unlikely), but think about how that situation arises. Either no one bids for our players because they are all shite or we have become the kind of club that controls when players come and go on our own terms. So which do you think it is.

After years and years of being a club that couldn't keep hold of anyone, losing our better players to anyone who could offer them an extra 50p a week we have turned a corner.

 

[Viktor17]

Agree and we can cope until Jan with x1 new CB.

still think Hughes deal has a twist yet, be surprised if his heads not turned.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Out - Bassette, Sheaf, Andrews, Obikwu, Bidwell

In - Woolfenden, Hughes, a CM, a winger

Anything less and I'll start supporting Liverpool
