My mate is a Football Agent he has no Coventry players on his books, he also never ever tells me anything regarding transfers Coventry CIty are involved in. I did ask him the other day about the publicly released news that we were in for Rollheiser, he told me we were nowhere near clinching that deal however we are currently in for another foreign player. Whether that means another Argentinian, Dutch, or whatever the nationality, expect 1 more player come Monday/Tuesday. You can say i am chatting out my arse, that is fine but I have never posted anything regarding any rumors, player names or potential signings. I am simply stating what a mate who works in the industry has told me, this could be a 200k player that is something disappointing it could also be a 8 million quid talent. I have no clue, i was only told the club are in for a foreign player, i don't no the position i don't no the name etc etc.

That Nathaniel Adjei is being linked with a different club every day. Suspect he might have the same agent as Rose and Westbrooke.

That Mattsson chap would be ideal. Seems to know Torp already.

NEC Nijmegen supporter:

“If Magnus was sold at the begining of the season for 500k everybody here would have been like, good atleast we're getting a part of the invested 800k or 900k we bought him for back.

At the moment the club will not let him go in the summer for les than 5 mil.

21 games (all competitions)

12 goals

5 assist

I can't believe how good he has become this season.

He was just toying with the Twente players like it were little kids last weekend.”

He's out of contract in July but N.E.C have a 1 year option. £5 million now wouldn't be bad business.

I remember when they used to send a reporter on the last day of the transfer window to stand outside the ground/training ground with loads of fans in the background. They stopped doing that when someone put up a giant inflatable dildo behind the reporters back.

Community notes:
It was a real dildo and it went in the reporters ear. They still send reporters on deadline day.

Nixon saying we’re being ‘very choosy’ with recruitment. Assuming he means we’re being very selective and not panic buying which is a good thing, no real pressure on us to go up this year. If the right players aren’t available then wait until summer.

Wonder if we won’t see a loan until next week while we wait to see if any permanents come off.

Doug very coy when asked
Likes pulling rabbits and surprising people - not a football man but very quick learner and seems to be pulling an expert team with the knowledge to progress us
Wouldn’t surprise me at all to see 2-3 players in or none

Nixon's info comes from agents so I read this as lots of agents are trying to peddle players to us and thus far we haven't seen anything we like.

5mil is a lot for what is basically one good season in the Eredivise IMO.

He keeps using the line that we have money so I bet we are fielding inquiries off some horrible agents.

He seems very in with Cresswell and Gelhardt's agent at Leeds. Interesting how he is saying FFP is screwing the market even at Championship level. Sounds like Leeds need to offload them but in his words they are on 'Premier League wages'. How a lad they signed from Wigan who has scored one goal for them is on Premier League wages I don't know.

State of the market. If Torp costs £2.1 million then Mattsson has better stats in a much tougher league.

Would rather us be choosy and get the right one in, but if we want to continue to be in that top six ideally it’s done this window.

but I’d rather us wait till the summer than panic buy

Yeah, not fussed if the owner's not a formal man, but surrounds himself with a team who are capable and who he is prepared to listen to.

Coventry are being ‘choosy’, according to one poster above we are waiting to ‘get the right one in’. Segue into a Nordic vampire movie. Jokes are always much funnier once they are explained.

Unless Arsenal come knocking the door I think it's a pretty safe bet Sheafs staying
