Starting to get a bit frustrated. I have faith in Bows and Gallen.. but all these negotiations seem to be mind bogglingly slow and so far unsuccessful by the looks of it.
Not one thing that was suggested would be a priority.. contract for Lyle, LB etc has happened.. and 1 incoming player when in reality we probably need 5+
I won't be panicking yet, looking at a couple of sites, there has been very little business done in the Championship, only £16m spent, and £15m of that by Fulham and the Premier League has been painfully quiet. This is going to be a window where it all gets a bit silly towards the end.
I met Lee Bowyer on Monday Talked about the contract on Tuesday Had another discussion on Wednesday And on Thursday and Friday not Saturday Blanked him Sunday
I can't help but feel that Maddison is using us as leverage for a better deal elsewhere, so I don't expect him to sign. I also expect he won't be the only one that will play this game. As such, patience is required; I expect player deals to be closer to the closing of the transfer window as there is so much double-dealing/bullshitting going on and it is going to take a while to sort the wheat from the chaff.....
BBC reporter who covers Brum seems to think they haven’t had a bid accepted and are trying to haggle over a player + cash deal. If true, the second bid accepted must have come from a third unnamed club.
I have heard 3 names from various sources - 1 more reliable than others I must add. - ill put the 3 names it ive heard - Scott Fraser from Burton , Billy Gilmour ( loan from Chelsea ) - Matej Vydra.

My personal favourite is his post about a medical a few days ago.
Would you like to discuss in private ??
No it’s fairly simple. You make stuff up.
According to your post history we should’ve signed Nketiah, Parrott and Hogan all in the last 6 months.
One of your names may be right, who knows, but all you’re doing is taking names off of Twitter and from other weird sources and claiming them as your own.
It’s amazing how fictional rumours seem to give some people such a kick.
Thanks for going back through my post history - most appreciated. - Hogan was only in this window not 6 months ago but don't want to appear pedantic.
Thanks also for reading all my posts - lets see who is proved correct. - ill await an apology from you when any come to fruition.
Too many people like yourself on this forum promoting negativity. - thought that gold sold when Roland left a few weeks ago - but the smell still lingers strongly with some people.
Step up to the plate and contribute and not criticise.
This will be my last reply because I don’t want to fill up this thread with anymore nonsense.
If contributing is classed as logging on to your parents computer to make up false rumours I’d rather not.
I think it’s very clear you don’t have any type of source at the club. I will happily apologise when I see Mattej Vydra announced on the OS. Looking forward to seeing how he plays alongside Nketiah and Parrott and whoever else you decide is signing for us.
To be fair, we did want Nketiah before he went to Leeds, and I had heard at the beginning of the month about possible interest/opportunity of Vydra on loan.
Of course, they might have rehashed it from me or elsewhere, but that cannot be proven. The only way someone gains credibility is when something comes off. I’ve been fortunate enough to have information about things before and give in-depth comments as to what I know. That doesn’t mean others or everyone else makes things up. We simply do not know.

You are credible because you don’t post drivel. A lot of stuff from the good sources on here is reported by Cawley etc etc.
Posting about knowing a mate who’s asked to set up a medical for Hogan, when that name has not been mentioned by one other soul, clearly shows he’s just living in some fictional little world of his own.

I thought the third team was Hull but I may be mistaken. I believe Middlesbrough wanted him too and the Randolph money this week may have helped that. Gawd know though!

An absolute shite week down at CAFC, Preston/Fulham game forfeited, Gallagher gone. Genuinely thought we’d have two through the door minimum this week instead we are -1.
That's the spirit! Might I remind you that we got a very creditable draw against the league leaders last Saturday?

But they make it very clear
They've got no room for rumours
They stop me from posting, they bang on me wall
They doing me crust in, it's no good at all - ah
Lazy Friday afternoon

Fair enough. I haven’t kept track of who says what to be completely honest, just that he mentioned Vydra which I had heard of before. As said, it might be rehashed, it might not be. Anyway, doesn’t matter because no one is signing until Monday at the earliest.

A replacement for Bowen presumably, a lot of moves are waiting for the PM clubs to set the ball rolling
I met Lee Bowyer on Monday Talked about the contract on Tuesday Had another discussion on Wednesday And on Thursday and Friday not Saturday Blanked him Sunday

Wins are overrated.
There is a middle ground between winning and "forfeiting" a game though - it's called competing and is something that Bowyer's teams are very good at, whatever relative shortfall in talent they may be handicapped by. We're actually above Preston in the form table, despite everything.

Keep cool everyone, we'll be alright.

@golfaddick are you ok?
Williams Hemed Cullen and Forster Caskey are all about to return.
Leave rebuilding the squad until the summer.

You going tomorrow mate
Why the rush to takeover in January?
You wearing shorts tomorrow.
I find the town and the stadium a bit soulless.
Stoke's my next away.
