My point is its part of football, i am sure some are bemoaning why there was a release clause. Not grasping that on occasions we would be delighted not to be stuck with a dud or that it was always part of the negotiation ie we would not have got him in the first place if we had to strike that out Fuck all you can do Lets be honest - you could guarantee if we bought him, within 2 weeks he would be frigging injured and out for 6 months 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank_Owl2,0 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 DM was asked quite a lot about potential transfers by the press. Played it just right, tell them what he wants them and other clubs to hear. It sounds like they've got an eye on some players. Interesting response when asked about Wickham. I wonder if there is a chance he could come here IF Paterson does go North? Probably not but would make some sense because Id assume we are expecting some cash for Paterson which might give us room to sign a better calibre of centre half whilst presumably getting Wickham at a reasonable rate (Im guessing will want a signing on fee), although I also wonder if Ipswich and Plymouth will be sniffing around him. Re the Paterson situation, whats that all about? Either DC is talking to them and not told DM (I cant see that) or they are flying a kite, which is what it sounds like based on what DM said. Still makes me laugh (in a 'this is ridiculous' way) that we couldnt find a centre half for £5M back when we signed bloody vAken, surely there were McGuinness and Storey type players about back then, even if we were looking for more of a finished product, but no we signed a bloody biscuit man that turned like the Titanic. At the end of the day, we are only going to know about a new player when its announced and not before, as weve said before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We couldn’t find a centre back because the man pulling Chansiri’s strings back then, wasn’t aware of him or, more likely wasn’t about to make as much money out of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank_Owl2,0 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 tbh if they cant recall him and we manage to keep him that would be huge. However, I suspect it might increase the chances of them selling him and you'd think there would be some interested parties out there at Championship level. Its whether they could command a fee that matches his potential which might open the door for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adeniran had more about him when he came on. Let him go in January with a healthy sell on clause. If he chooses to sign a pre-nup and wait the season out then he's still young enough to play in the 21s and that's where he stays. If we're desperate I'd rather give Shipston the shirt than anyone who's mind is elsewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Dele-Bashiru is on it, there is nobody in this division that can get anywhere near him, thing is we haven't seen him do it on a consistent basis that we need. Thought he looked totally dis intrested against Newcastle, personally think he's off & his agent has "got in his head" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably just a routine thing for such as them. He's the right age and available for free or for a nominal amount soon. Background? Came up through Man City. What does he do well? **Watches video with multiple spectacular goals and player shouldering big blokes off of the ball.

Wasn’t particularly thinking then spending it, more just managing cash flow which could be an issue this close to the pandemic close down. I agree there’s not much in it for them.

M42Owl Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Does anyone know how player registrations work? Presumably, McGuiness is registered with SW until it’s transferred back to CC. But if FIFA/EFL won’t, yet, allow CC to register him, doesn’t he remain, technically, our player until a decision is made in their favour and the paperwork is approved by EFL, even though he might be training with Cardiff’s squad? So if decision is made after January… Decision goes our way: he’s stays registered with us. Decision goes against us: it’s too late for his registration to be transferred to CC. It stays with us. Either way, CC can let MM resume back at SW or have him spend 5 months twiddling his thumbs. Surely, they’d rather he played and was paid by us? So would another three weeks of FIFA/EFL procrastination work in our favour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll have a look in the market if needs be to fill that place, and we’ll look at our injury situation that we’ve got with our central defenders in here. “But it’s an opportunity, we feel, for one or two in the camp to step up and into his shoes… The only irons in fires for us is preparing for Wycombe Wanderers.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
