Talks still ongoing at 11am . But looks like his agent and club trying to play us off against other clubs ... Been told we have given them a deadline or we go elsewhere !! This as come from our physio team at the training ground The player was at the hotel in Canary Wharf last night ...
I don't like the sound of that, why give an ultimatum for a player we need and other clubs want. No harm done for them if Charlton give a final offer not good enough. Really want us to go out and get this guy. Delort and maybe a centre attacking mid and I'll be completely confident going into the next season.
Let's see if Reams gets his info right.
But with no ultimatum we may not get him anyway, and will have wasted time on him when we could pursue other options.
There is literally no point in giving an ultimatum if there's a handful of clubs interested though. I doubt he has any feelings for the clubs mentioned so he doesn't care where he goes and nor does his club. Ultimatums should be used in different circumstances. They've named their price and I'm sure someone else will match it if not us.
It feels like Leeds are going to be the ones to sign him now. Although considering all of the crap that gets spoken during transfer windows on social media who knows. Last night I was reading how Leeds were one of the only clubs not interested in this geezer.
The fact remains we were prepared to drop in excess of a million pounds on this fella so I dare say he has been scouted and is a good player. I'd rather not be beaten to him by dirty Leeds but que sera sera.
Perhaps this is the time for @Atletico Addick to come out of the woodwork and tell us, in true Bob Marley style, not to worry and that every little ting is gonna be alright
Athletico, are your two rumours still in the pipeline?
Don't need names as I respect your promise but with all this crazy business with Delort,I would like to know that at least one other signing is available to us.
Leeds deny any interest in the player mind you this as come from their chairman !! So it's between us , Brentford and QPR
I'm more worried about Leeds still. Doubt QPR need him and just can't see him going Brentford. Can't take another day of this tbf, been on edge ever since AA said we're getting two new players, it's tragic.

If true it sounds like the right tactic.
Think I'm respecting RD more and more. We want the player but surely there comes a point when enough is enough. We don't have time for these games with the neww season on the horizon and if this falls through we still need a couple of players
There seems to be no way of knowing the truth, but if we are really being dicked about then we have to set our internal limit and deadline and stick to it. There is only so much dicking a person can take.

really hope that is not how RD conducts player negotiations.
Personally i hope we are standing firm and not being held over a barrell. He sounds like a good player and I would more than happy to have him added to the squad but i don't like the idea of any player holding us to ransom or paying over the odds on an untested player in our league.
maybe as Leeds lost out on the Roma guy they have moved back in for him.
I don't think his ethnic background is of any interest here - and hasn't he got a name? I take it your use of the word "moved back" is a dig at the traveller community?

Absolutely right. Just out of interest what is your internal dicking limit Seth? I know what mine is...
