Rumour from up here in Sheffield is that he has signed / or is signing for SUFC.

Typed Quickly.

Should of course Read Conor Thomas to Sheffield United.

Apologies.

Hope not .

Referred to him on TS earlier about his sojourn with Liverpool and how a good showing in a game like tonight might ignite some interest In him.

Dont see why he'd want to sign for a lower placed club?

This ones a bit out the blue. I would also think why would he go there apart from money, surely he'd be thinking about a move up the leagues if anything, not a sideways move?

Nor do I to be honest. One of the Guys who works for me is a mad keen Blades fan. He just had a call from one of his people that works for SUFC and came to me saying

"We,ve just signed someone from your place, Conor Something?".

May well be bol***, hence I use the word rumour.

I'm prepared to be shot down if wrong.

I know which club I'd rather play for if I had no emotional attachment. And it's not the one that plays in front of 2,000 people in a cow shed stadium miles from its proper home, and one that could be liquidated/put into admin at any moment.

Ok, you say that and it's true. But he's a cov lad, so there's probably some degree of emotional attachment?

Sheff Utd: Conor we will double your current salary if you sign with us
CT: Let me think about it........okay then!

Bye bye emotional attachment!!!

Can't see it myself but if he has he must be really pi$$ed off with our club.

agreed but to be fair we havent leaked many players that we didnt want to leave apart from Clarke (who hasnt left). If teams offer wages that we cannot match then they have a difficult choice to make. Personally i didnt really rate him until this season, Elvis has got him playing well so would be a loss.

Tis only a rumour!!!

We don't really know or understand what is going on in front of the scenes!

Reply to DALYCOV

I live near Crystal Peaks now. Not sure where's screening the match tonight up here. I had resigned myself to reading the kid's their bedtime stories and trying to find a live BT Sport stream on the laptop. (No jokes about my Conor Thomas rumour being a FairyTale I should read them please folks - my intentions are genuine).
They used to show the live games at a Student-y pub near ther railway station IIRC, met a few Cov fans in there in the past.

Who are they ? Come to that i'm sure there is someone on here who knows Conors dad ,and has possibly suggested all is not well in the relationship between young players and Waggot.
