Even a 20 million move would help us out substantially

Didn’t Harry Redknapp live in Sandbanks while he was Tottenham manager?

He still does
And he bought it when managers didn't earn big money
He's not known as Harry the Thief for nothing............

If they dont sell him now, and he starts the season in good goal scoring form, that may push the price up

Or he could get injured and be out until the window closes

AV: How much you want for Wilson?

AFCB: £25m

AV: Bit steep, and he’s had some injuries - how about £15m?

AFCB: Pfff, No chance!

AV: Ok, how about we meet you half way - £20m?

AFCB: Make it cash and you’ve got a deal

Message for Callum... Because I'm sure he's reading this....

If you go to Villa good luck, I hope you do well (but not to well). You'll be giving your hometown club a nice financial bonus along the way.

BUT PLEASE! Never let me see you kissing the badge.

Harry Redknapp is in the process of moving from his house in Sandbanks to a new house being built nearby. Reported that Callum Wilson was interested in buying this new house too, but Harry beat him to it.

If Wilson is wanting to buy a house down south, wouldn't have thought he would be too interested in a move to Newcastle though.

£15m seems a bit low even with the injuries. Bet Bournemouth are wishing they cashed in last year.

I am ever the pessimist when it come to Cov. Zero chance we get Walsh this season but yet for some weird reason I can't drop the thin shred of hope. Its rediculous considering A. Walsh was used as a model for BCfCs new kit B. Robins has brought in 2 midfielders at a potential cost of ~2m

Maybe Bristol neglect him all season and we can snag him next year or Jan

Wilson will be better going to Villa then, £20 odd million will do, use our slice of the pie wisely so when we pass them on our way back to the promised land he can come back to us for half the fee Villa paid for him.

Even if Wilson is sold I’m not expecting a flurry of signings. We have spent more than previous years, We have no stadium, no fans attending games and a global pandemic. I would assume it’s going to be used to balance the books. I hope I’m wrong though.

Also, if it means holding onto our better players like Rose for example then it’s good business And a successful window in my opinion.

Hopefully the money we receive from Bournemouth will have paid for all our summer player purchases, so we will have improved our squad at little or no cost

We’ve spent no more than £2.5m this window I reckon. I doubt there’s a massive debt that needs paying once you consider McCallum and promotion.

Keep any money for COVID losses and keeping the likes of Rose around.

£1.8m minimum so far then. Maybe £2.7m depending on the sell on %.

Come on Geordies, get your wallets out.

News on radio today is Newcastle have bid £20million and a player going the other way don’t know if the player is on top of the £20million part of it, either way nice little pick up for us.or Interestingly both players have the same agent according to Talksport.
They also said Villa have had a £15million bid rejected.

I think we might see 1 more incoming if Wilson goes, (perhaps what Robins was alluding too in regards to having the finance to do more) but for me extending players contracts like Rose, Dabo, Hyam etc is important to protect our assets.

According to Talksport Villa have upped their bid to £21million, we should run a book on the final figure, I’ll start and go for £25mill. cash, one positive thing it won’t be an undisclosed fee like all ours seem to be.

Not sure who I’d have as favourites Villa obviously nearer family and the south but Newcastle imo are a better bet to do okay in the league this season, and I think will pay better wages. I also think Villa are more likely to have another relegation battle on their hands

Personally I have a hunch Hyam's lack of pace might be shown up at Championship level (it was by Yeovil in L.2!) but Dabo and Rose are vital.

What is the percentage ? Always thought it was 15% after the original £3million fee was deducted.

Hyam extended didn’t he. Dabo 3 years so 2 left rose just one. Think the biggest move left in this window is to convince rose to sign an extension

You’re rather naive if you think that has anything to do with it. Newcastle have the better squad and Fraser is also in talks

It's amazing that people still bring up Hyam getting caught out for pace in one match three seasons ago.

I reckon Bournemouth want to clear £20million so I reckon so we are looking between £23million atleast depending on our percentage, nice bonus for a new player or two and some towards a new handbag for our Joy.
