One of which he’s been on holiday.

If he comes he looks like he’s got great potential. If he doesn’t, I’ve got faith in our other targets. I’m sure Robins hasn’t signed his first choice every time so far and he’s done OK.

Fucking hell, you know transfers don’t happen overnight. It’s literally been about 2 weeks. We must have been talking to O’Hare since March and he only signed in July.

I’m sure The club knows what they’re doing

Mate if we followed your philosophy we wouldn't sign anyone. We were talking with Hamer for longer than this, O'Hare the same. In the words of Gary Barlow 'Have a little patience'

Exactly.
Young Jay McGrath impressed on trial back in February but didn't sign until July.

I think people think it's Football Manager, you offer terms & they sign same/next day & anything else means they're stalling or demanding more money.
Add in to that we know that Ben Sheaf is away on holiday & there's still a month until season starts there's no reason to be concerned yet.

I’m not disagreeing with your general point, but I thought someone said he posted on insta or somewhere from London? Or did I imagine that?! (Quite possible)

I assume his season finished when lock down came. If he is signing it would seem strange that he is on holiday when his new team mates have been back three weeks and are on to their second friendly. How do we know he is on holiday?

Yeah, I thought it would be an odd time to go abroad (for anyone but particularly someone in the middle of signing for a new team). Not sure where the rumour came from.

Fair enough, let’s hope he made it back then (if he’s going to sign for us, otherwise he can stay out there for a bit).

750k bid made he’s been told he can leave,we are also now said to be considering other options.

Alan Nixon reporting season are willing to push the boat out on terms & fees for Sheaf

Dunno if we're looking elsewhere because he seems to be taking his time over it rather than jumping at the chance to become a first team player. Not exactly like he was one of those tipped to be huge like Maitland-Niles or Nketiah or even Eng U21. You do start to wonder how much he wants to be part of it. That Wolves lad also looked an interesting prospect.

Looking at his highlights you can see why we are still trying to get this done he’s exactly what we need.

He could be referring to a signing on fee rather than the bid it's self?
