A better offer we wouldn’t match more likely. I think it was the extra year that clinched it for Bristol rather than cash

I will tell you tomorrow once the club announce it, as you all like a link to an official source

Maddison parties in Ibiza as he makes most of summer holiday after missing Euros

JAMES MADDISON is making the most of his well-earned summer holiday by partying in Ibiza. The Leicester ace, 24, was unfortunate to miss out on Gareth Southgate’s England squad for Euro 2020.…

Happy with Gyokeres if it's him

@Boosh will be gutted though because he thinks Gyo is the worst striker ever and that we should sign Ched Evans instead.

If boosh thinks Viktor is the worst striker ever ...... he’s not been supporting the club for very long.
I’m happy if this is the next signing ..... he will only improve with the coaching here

Why do you mention me in every post do you fancy me?

For the record I think Gyo is ace and Biamou is the worst striker ever

So you thought Gyokeres was a good signing last season? That’s what your other posts from last season say, right?

I’m more worried that Barnsley have poached our up and coming striker and we are having to spend £1m on Brighton’s who is clearly inferior

Click to expand...
Although I accept your point, I think "poached" is a strong word. I think we were all surprised (well, I was!) when Barnsley showed an interest. I didn't think anyone would be interested in Bremang. I don't even think we would have extended his contract unless we knew that someone was interested so that we could get a small fee.
May well live to regret saying this, and only wish him the best, but I didn't feel any disappointment or sense of loss at him going. Hold out more hope for Nee, and think the club rate Tavares higher than Bremang.
If you're complaining about the hypothetical fee for a hypothetical transfer (Gyo) then I share your concern, but again - we don't know the details of this.

I think people are too used to lower league transfers. £1m for a Prem U23 is standard.

Agree to an extent, but £1m is a lot for us - maybe not for 15 other teams in the Championship. Last year we were able to make two £1m ish transfers (Hamer & Walker). However we had Callum Wilson money coming in. The year before it was Maddison money.
In post Covid times, I think the fees are likely to lower at the moment. I'm thinking that £1mprobably swallows up most of our annual transfer budget (I'm a "glass half empty" person when it comes to finances!).
I acknowledge we don't know any details of the transfer, so we're all presumptuously sticking with the £1m amount.

We spent over £3m last season when we had no crowds and might have gone straight back down. I’d argue there’s less risk this summer, the same again isn’t unreasonable.

I agree.

Boosh just tags me in every thread whether I'm posting in it or not. If it's tedious for you imagine how tedious it is for me. The bloke is a weirdo and ruins every thread he posts in
