Lampard mentioned it in a press conference after the Plymouth game. Done his hamstring so out for a few weeks he said. Wright back on grass training this week.

Was an interesting listen on this deal tbf. Sounds like it was the only way we would get EMC in the summer. Peterborough chairman did a podcast episode on it with some insights on Doug

Was something about we agreed to the loan back as contra against the increased transfer fee we would have paid in the summer

It was the other way round.

They'd only do the deal if it included a loan back, so the fee was reduced to take account of that.

So If my memory is right. We agreed a deal to bring him here in January but allowed Peterborough to look for a replacement. They couldn’t find one in time and as such wanted to either increase the deal or pull out completely. Keep in mind posh already said they would charge more in the summer

As it was already expensive we didn’t want to increase it but did, only for posh to still say no. We then agreed they could keep him if they paid his wages, we didn’t pay any instalment's until he was with us and we had a reduced price on him.

Then we would have paid more but then you seem to believe that there is a bottomless pit of money

@Jimmy87 just give us a fucking rumour bro, stop being a square.
Click to expand...
Honestly I've given every snippet I've had, talking to a RB and CM.

He's heard nothing about a winger yet (doesn't mean it's not true).

He said 'we may get our wish' for the experienced CB.

Told me of concrete interest in Lati, 1 Champ, 1 abroad.
Someone inquired about loan for Kitching.
MVE concrete interest.

With Nikitscher, I wouldn't worry, may not be him. I'm only going by names I knew were on radar in the summer.
Was odd that His agency randomly started following the club though, so who knows.

I'll see him Saturday, if nothing in before then, I'll ask for an update.

Good work mate. Looking forward to your Saturday update, dread to think how off topic the thread might be by then.

Ok alot of people never gave him a chance,now he is playing in his natural position he can only improve and hopefully when Wright is back he can go down the middle.

Have we had any rumours on the RB? There was that bloke that’s gone somewhere else wasn’t there?

I wonder if it’s a priority so we can let Milan go

I'd like to think we'd have someone in by then, with a good gap till next league game, ideal time.

That was the guy who went to Burnley I believe. We had a fee agreed in the summer for him, club agreed but player said no. I guess we know why.

Seems like we're probably happy to let MvE move on for a decent profit then and use the funds to go again.

Tough one for me, January is a difficult time isn't it. If someone matches asking price it would be hard to say no. Also have to take into account, I think it's obvious his head was turned in the summer with that late bid for him. Agent probably agitating.
If we would have got the lad who went to Burnley, he might just have gone then.

That lad that’s joined Burnley was meant to be his replacement in summer if went to PSV. He was never going to come in to be a number 2 in that position.

Helik has signed on the dotted line and will be announced before the match this weekend.

Now, do I actually have good information or am I just trying to derail the slapping match about Lampard's record?
Click to expand...

There are many reasons why this won’t happen but for one;

Signings announced before the match just don’t happen anymore. I think our last one was Chris Burchill and that was because we had kept it quiet for 24 hours and registered him in time to play.
