Smith is 22 and knows how to score. Would be a good signing. Problem is that Swindon will know we got good money for Wilson and will use that against us.
Still think we need to replace Wilson's pace up front though.
This is why transfer fees should always be 'undisclosed'
Please don't think too muchWOW! On the weekend our manager is linked with another job, we've suddenly got money to spend on transfer fees.:thinking about:
Please don't think too much
Remember the time we made a few offers for Le Fondre but our delightful owners didn't think he was worth more than £200k or something and we ended up with the dross.
Similar scenario again...make the fans believe we are after a good player then end up with some rubbish.
Wasn't that when we bought McDonald instead as he was thorn's number 1 target?
Why again does this have to be a Thorn issue? You know where this will now be headed. The point the poster was trying to make is that with Le Fondre, we put in two bids which were described as pitiful and insulting by the chairman at the time; and history - maybe - appears to be repeating itself. It's the negotiating tactics that are being looked at here; not the wisdom of the manager with his selections at any given time
Sometime offers get rejected, it isn't a new thing

Your memory is failing I think.. they made for effort to sign Le Fondre first and Thorn statements about Cody were for media/fan consumption to justify the decision not to find the money needed
