he’s out of contract in the summer anyway - the clubs in severe financial difficulties looking at the latest companies house loan submission

You said somebody's going - I just suggested who - we are also offloading several other wage earners (albeit low level). Maybe SISU are being supportive at the moment regarding this move (if it happens)? (and no I don't like what they've done to the club). Let's see - but I would be happy if we got hold of him, as the team should look a lot more solid as a result.

He just can't ever be happy & has to even find a way to turn an incredibly positive story such as this into a dig at the club.

How is it a dig? The fact is we’ve had to lodge a debenture to companies house? This is loading more loans on the company - Robins himself said we can’t afford players - we’ve a small matter of an EFL loan to pay back. Someone on here said we’ve cash flow issues as two games were cancelled - which I assume is why we’ve had the loan - the debenture increases the owners stranglehold even more on the club and restricts its operating practices - so forgive me for being somewhat cynical regarding the owners ambitions

No my view is the club has no money so it’s found a home for someone and can use an element of the fee on someone else’s wages to fund it. So he’s the logical person. Let’s be honest we’d sell o hare or Hamer if a suitable bid came along. We’d sell Moore and we’ve zero replacement for him

I see your reasoning, but there are other players who are more likely candidates to leave than Dabo such as like you said Ohare, Hamer perhaps even kelly

And as I said a few hundred £k for Dabo would make no difference.

Thats also true, Tuchel has said he hopes to not have to recall maatsen (to help his developement) which isnt ruling it out

That was a while ago wasn't it? They've recalled Kenedy since & gave Maatsen permission to play in the cup. He won't be going back.

But isn't this potential signing going to impact on Maatsen's development? I assume Chelsea would want him to go elsewhere. But could they insist on that.

Fingers crossed for Bidwell. Experienced at this level and Swansea play decent football so should fit in nicely. As a couple of posters have said, it would be good to finally get a permanent LB/LWB in !

Very pleased with it mate, lovely that we beat Blues to the punch too. Stats for bidwell this year not great but he’s been brilliant in the past.

Yeah, hasn't fitted in with the way Russell Martin wants him to play but has been exceptional the last couple of years. He & Connor Roberts were arguably the best pair of wing-backs in the division last season.

Usual nonsense. And cut Dabo a bit of slack - this season (and without complaint as far as I can see) he's been played out of position at both LWB and RCB. Doesn't mean that he should be written off at RWB - should be given credit for doing his bit for the team.

Still, the fact he’s played this year shows he must be fairly comfortable on the ball.

Yes, I thought he was younger than 28 but he's looked decent to me. Similar to Kane, combative but tidy

I cant say I can remember him particularly, but has good pedigree and experience (c300 championship games) that we desperately need. Will be a good signing.

Again my criticism of him has been minor and that’s not what I’ve said - nice to see in here again though

We are getting this guy on a free. Glad you know how much we are paying our players

£10 charity bet Grendel that Dabo doesn’t leave this window.

I’ve said he’s the most likely if he signs - why have we raised a debenture amendment with companies house?
