For context, that's the geezer the Nevilles spotted on the Salford City documentary.
For further context, Jeff Stein is a fictional agent from that old football soap Dream Team, so I would take a certain amount of what this account says with a pinch of salt
Just seen a tweet saying we are interested in signing Rolando Aarons from Newcastle, looked like he would be playing more regularly after starting a few games last year...;
Anyone think this bid for the Rotherham guy may be a plan to try to soften the blow of Lookman leaving... After all where are we getting this 2mil from if Watt is only on loan.
Some movement at Tottenham. Serbian youngster Milos Vejlkovic, who helped his nation win the Under-20 World Cup last summer, has packed his bags and headed over to German Bundesliga side Werder Bremen.

Roland can find £2 million. It's not like there is a cash flow problem is there.
Maybe one for the "general things that annoy you" thread......
but why the hell is it always left so late? The transfer window has been open all month. If we want to strengthen the team, doing it early on in the window means they can get more games in, and prices don't get ratcheted up so much at the last minute.
Or is it that they like the glorious failures to show the fans they really do mean business, but without actually having to fork out any money?

It just shows how quickly this stuff spreads. A Twitter account in the name of a fictional character tweets something linking us to a player and before you know it some website have used it as the basis for an article. That article itself is then used as proof of the veracity of the original tweet and around it goes.

Classic negotiation theory. If a club is prepared to sell a player then it means they want rid - hence a buyer's market at the end of the window. It's a seller's market at the beginning of the window.
Charlton Athletic are close to sealing a permanent deal for Simon Makienok according to reports coming out of the ATA Hotel. The Dane joined the South London side in the summer, and it seems he’s done enough for the club to buy him outright.
TMW have reported from the ATA Hotel in Milan that Charlton Athletic are closing in on Makienok, and could look to get a deal done before the deadline. The hotel is where all the agents in Italy get together during the transfer window to hold talks and close transfer deals.
The Danish international has started 15 league games since his loan move from Serie A's Palermo in the summer. The initial deal was that Charlton Athletic would take the player on a season long loan, but they want to exercise their right of redemption even though he’s only be at the club for 6 months.
Makienok may have sealed his move to Charlton Athletic after scoring a brace at the weekend against Rotherham United. With the Championship side in a battle to avoid relegation this will come as positive news for the club and supporters.

We all know Cory Gibbs doesnt exist, he's that character our Mums invented to scare us into eating our vegetables like the bogey man or Colin!!
If he finishes the season strongly and Rotherham get relegated, he'll have all summer to find a better club

Crazy.
Charlton are understood to have tabled a bid of £1.5 million for Clarke-Harris which was snubbed by Rotherham.
So everyone plays brinkmanship.
Still annoying, I'll grant you.
