if the rumour that he was at the training ground last week is correct then maybe terms have been agreed with the player and now we've agreed terms with his Club
the Dagenham manager seems pretty certain but really I think it was very wrong of him to mention it without the final contract conclusion with the player. Guess he is a frustrated manager losing one of his better players so hard to keep that inside
I have only just realised, I was on trial at Charlton when I was 13 and Danny had his for the exact same period as me!I remember this because a couple of years later when I was mascot (Sunderland 0-1) at the Valley he was ballboy (we both would have been 15 at this stage which makes sense as the young academy players were the ballboys) and i recognised him straight away. He hasnt changed at all since!I hope we land him, quality player!!Bit of a claim to fame for me too!haha
It's fairly common practice now for clubs to give permission to talk to the player while a package between the clubs still has not been finally agreed upon. Not saying it happened here but just with reference to above comments.
As I see it the clubs have agreed a transfer fee, which gives us permission to offer the player a contract but that doesn't mean that he'll automatically accept what we are offering.
If we get green then we will have a real strong Midfield/Forward line (still could do with 1 more striker) cant wait to see the calibre of CH we try to get
If we sign him, maybe Wagstaff might be used more as a pacy centre forward next year, he has pace and can finish just his crossing and being able to beat his man has let him down a few times as a winger....
There has rumoured to have been much interest in Green so i dont plan to get too excited until its on the OS. If we do manage to get him then i think that is a real statement of intent, the people at our end are doing a very good job of selling the club and vision for the future to these players and it will be a very pleasing signing. COYR.

Fingers crossed then that nobody matches our offer then!
Kudos to the Club for trying to get the right kind of players.

Remember Steve Sidwell?
he might accept another clubs offer over ours though... especially if its championship football.
Still thinks its unlikely.
