There was a strong rumour that Luton tabled an £8 million bid in January. MR batted enquiries about the truth of the bid by saying King will deal with any bids.
There was a strong rumour that Luton tabled an £8 million bid in January. MR batted enquiries about the truth of the bid by saying King will deal with any bids.Not sure if it’s been suggested, but perhaps the club have been aware of Sheaf’s potential to be leaving, hence the signing of Torp - and probably (tenuously at this stage) the link with the lad Kypriannou (spelling?) from Peterborough.
Is there any actual substance to the Sheaf/departure story? Aside from the usual ‘my mate Daz told me down the Rose and Crown, he’s Robbings’s handyman. Trust me bro’ scenario.
Umm concerning.There was an 8Million bid from Luton
We rejected it
Sheaf also didnt want to leave
If anyone comes in with north of 12million expect to see him go
Every team in this league has to sell their best players. It’s how you reinvest that counts.If we keep selling our best players we're not going to build year on year, hence the slow start to the season.

The season they got promoted Brentford sold Watkins and Benrahma, their two best players. They used some to that money to sign Toney and Janelt and went up.
Why do people always say it's about money? Surely for Sheaf it's about whether a Premier League club think he is up to it.I get the impression that we are building around Sheaf (making him captain etc) so personally I would expect him to stay unless offered silly money of course.
I think we've figured out who leaked Dean Austin's messages....Free agent in the summer and 37 years old and has 1 season left at Championship level. Lives locally and maybe already approached.
Agreed, our squad depth is ‘net’ 3 players down from last season. Our overall quality, imo, is better but we still have a busy summer ahead.Robins has previously complained about the lack of bodies, so I would expect a net squad growth. I would think 6 more to come in, given the expected outgoings.
Three I would personally like to see would be Duk and Miovski at Aberdeen, and that Bergzorg who is currently on loan at Huddersfield
I would keep Tavares, as I think he could be useful when playing in a front 2

I know he's scored a couple recently but Tavares just isn't up to the level we need - he looked like a little boy lost when out wide against Maidstone - definitely need to upgrade from him
I’d keep Tavares for his final year as fourth striker he’d be well down the pecking order, but he does score goals playing in his favoured position and he’ll be cheap and is a character around the squad it seems. Him and Allen and one of the kids (probably Burroughs) would be 23-25 in my squad. There if we hit an injury crisis so we don’t have to bring youth players in or change formation too much, or on the off chance they hit a vein of form.
He’s on £140k a week …. Next
you know absolutely nothing lets be honest.Sheaf’s here and he’s here to stay trust me, he’s very happy here with us and sees it as home, if he ever left he was forced out or a big club came in with big money, and I mean big big club
you know absolutely nothing lets be honest.
Couple of good shouts there.Few players I’d like us to be interested in
Femi Aziz
Harrison Burrows
Jack Rudoni
Tyhrys Dolan
Very nice, how much,EMC? Limits on foreign players?
This lad is the winger I think we need. Proven in the top flight of the Dutch league, very young and has the versatility to cover both wings.
Azeez and Dolan are great shouts , think either one of those on a free would be superb businessFew players I’d like us to be interested in
Femi Aziz
Harrison Burrows
Jack Rudoni
Tyhrys Dolan
He is on loan from the Belgium to the Dutch league not sure when his contact is up but 3 million with lots of potential to improve. Wings is an area we lack depth and while EMC will help, we need 4 to cover the wide berths and currently have Saka, EMC and Wright who i think Robins would like to see up front.Very nice, how much,EMC? Limits on foreign players?
That Alan Browne is class. Would love him here.
If anyone is interested I’ve made a shortlist of players we could realistically be looking at on a free transfer this summer from across England, Ireland, and Scotland. I’ve done my proper research and shortened the list down based on things I’ve heard as well as info on the web. Disregard the fifa ratings I’ve just used this site as a convenient means to build the shortlist.
Not for me, we have kept one clean sheet with him in the back line, not been convinced by him as a defender. People talk about how he is ball playing, but I personally prefer defenders to actually be able to defend . Would rather spend any money on somebody who would threaten Kitching for a place, more than him allegedly him sticking up for Collins ;-)What do people think on Binks heading into summer? Worth signing or do people think there are better out there.
For me I would sign him if he's not too expensive. Left footed CB's are hard to find at the required standard. As a 2nd choice I don't think we will find much better for LCB, he's had some good games and some not so good games, but think he is someone we can develop.
I don't rate him either. On the ball he's been disappointing too.Not for me, we have kept one clean sheet with him in the back line, not been convinced by him as a defender.
