    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Don't care what turner says, not a chance we sanction a move for Bassette and Obikwu without having a new forward nailed on, we must have. Centre mid I don't mind, Allen, Eccles and Andrews is enough cover until January. Obviously a CB is an absolute must.

    What was that adage about not pleasing all the people all of the time?

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    I'd argue we need a forward player more but ideally both. Can't see that we would have let Obikwu and Bassette leave without having at least one forward coming in.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    I'm comfortable with Eccles being the cover for Grimes. If we are to do another deal on top of Woolfenden I'd prefer it to be a left winger or striker. That said I'm not overly concerned if we wait till January for the right player rather than spunking cash on a panic buy now.

    They can sign players that don't involve a fee

    Completely agree. Our mistake with Sheaf was not snapping Luton's hand off when they wanted him in their Prem season.

    Be more ambitious. I reckon we can easily get to a 1000 pages before 9pm

    I agree. All our other business has been done quietly so the more public pursuit of Hughes must be an effort to get the player himself to force a move.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    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...

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

    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.....

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    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...

    Now this is much more like it.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    It's obvious that someone has to go to top up the coffers and I think in all likelihood everyone was effectively available, it just depended on the deal put forward as to who it was going to be. Sheaf feels like the most easily replaceable out of MVE, Thomas, Rudoni

    Given our clear ability to keep transfers secret I imagine we may end up with someone else entirely.

    Not this again. If Ashley wanted to own us he already would. He's said multiple times that he's no longer interested in club ownership.
