I'm not bothered about him BUT he was clearly a main target of ours, and you imagine that when we sold Bonne it was in the expectation that he would be one of the replacement strikers.Rudders22 said:I am not bothered to be honest. Never heard of him before 2 weeks ago. We can do better. He will probably sign for another Danish club, There are plenty of players of out there out that will be looking for clubs.0 -
Yet. Can still be sold to a PL club up to 5pm Friday week.Weegie Addick said:Well at least we didn't sell Doughty, did we?0 -
He'd be shit for us anyway!0

Agree. Seems like a lot of hassle to negotiate for 2 or 3 weeks on and off, get a medical done, etc. Can't imagine he wasn't wanted by Bowyer and Gallen. Hopefully he wasn't a factor in the Bonne decision and there are plenty more on the list.killerandflash said:

Probably saw us play at the weekend & thought that with the lack of chances created he could do better elsewhere. It's going to be hard attracting players when our midfield is so pedestrian, our set plays uninspiring & by 5pm Saturday we in the bottom 4.ElliotCAFC said:
I asked him. He’s a streamer so you can easily contact him if you really wanted to.paulie8290 said:
Where has he said this? Not questioning you just curious lolElliotCAFC said:Martin Sandgaard has said there is still hope for Shwartz.“He’s got the paperwork in front of him”Schwartz didn’t sign the paperwork in the end unfortunately, we may go in for him in January apparently.
But hey ho, I keep being told that we have list upon list of players, are forever drawing up lists of better players that we can now sign, and the 5 or 6 that we had lined up on takeover day are still itching to join us.8 -
Hopefully we wake up to good news but if the Danish press are correct that it is off, then we move on.0

I was going to say that if the Sandgaard deal fell through:Rudders22 said:I am not bothered to be honest. Never heard of him before 2 weeks ago. We can do better. He will probably sign for another Danish club, There are plenty of players of out there out that will be looking for clubs.
‘I’m not bothered to be honest. Never heard of him six weeks ago. We can do better. He will probably buy another League One Club. There are plenty of other potential owners out there looking for clubs.’1 -
TS, SG and LB have got a 10 days or so ahead of them. Will probably define our season. I hope they smash it.5
-
IF our best chance of getting strikers is now loans, then we need to start signing some defenders on permanent deals, seeing that we have 2 loans in our squad already.1
-
Gallen and Bowyers job seems almost more difficult this transfer window than any before (except for the Jan Southall debacle), with huge holes in our squad, a tiny salary cap and the relatively cheap overseas transfer market closed and a week to go in the UK... Good luck with that chaps!1

I hope the Schwarz deal works out in the end but we need to move on.
I was always far from comfortable with the Schwartz signing at this time. I had no problem with the signing per se, his CV or his playing style but quite simply viewed an international family relocation away from its usual environment in a global pandemic as being fraught with challenges.
Unlike many of the PL transfers we are probably not talking life changing sums being involved here.
I do not know but aged 31 he probably has a wife and kids but with Covid what could have been a fun couple of years just how is the family supposed to assimilate into a new country when every bugger is meant to be socially distancing and keeping themselves behind closed doors.
What happens if someone falls ill when the family support system is in another country.
I have no idea of the Covid situation in Denmark but even with the professional sports person exemptions how does his family easily move between the UK and the family back home.
So ultimately they may have had misgivings all the way through and in the end simply decided to stay home for now.
It is very likely it could have all worked out well but if in doubt ..then it is probably better to stay put

Not sure what it was doing on the transfer thread but a bit late to the journey down memory lane I met Lucien Masiello when he was "running down" his Italian contract "unofficially advising" a team in the London Spartan League.
Based on the team performance he was good at the job.
Really nice, very confident guy who was seriously stitched up by his first Italian club who dumped him onto a C level club by letter without a word. Our Chairman would have loved to sign him but it was too much of a risk as he was simply too well known locally.

Why do people still use Wikipedia as a source when anyone can edit it11

Just logged in and read through. Have to say I was absolutely delighted with the signings. Emphasising the 'was' as having got through the evenings posts I was elated and deflated all at the same time. The 'We couldn't quite get the deal over the line' is not a joke anymore. I'm pretty annoyed that the rumour mill is wrong again. It would be nice to know why the deal for Schwartz fell through. Surely the bullshit days have passed.

What has happened is the Bonne sale has potentially turned into a massive error. With the salary cap it is going to be difficult to entice a striker of the required quality from another lower league club, if there is somebody we need around. There may be some young Premier League loanees that fit the bill but we will probably face Championship competition for the best of those.
£2m doesn't look such a great deal if it seriously lowers your chances of getting promoted. I am now waiting for a couple of rabbits of the attacking variety to be pulled out of the hat and hoping these are not left to the last minute, where we know things can go pear shaped!1 - Sponsored links:

Not sure why Jordan Ibbe would be pissed off, or disappointed. He just got his move sorted to Derby.addick1956 said:A week or so ago I had no clue who Ronnie Schwartz was. His career doesn't look that wonderful and I have no idea what calibre the teams he has played for are like.
Why should Ibbe pissed off by another who will only disappoint in the end.
;-) (Ibe I know)1 -
I'm not sure how the closing of the international window has changed anything to be honest. We're not signing anyone from abroad. Big whoop. Onwards.4

Plenty of time to find replacements, we will get a young forward on loan from the premier league..MuttleyCAFC said:What has happened is the Bonne sale has potentially turned into a massive error.

Yeah but if Bonne wanted away then sell him. Can’t be having sulky players who think QPR is a move to the promised landMuttleyCAFC said:What has happened is the Bonne sale has potentially turned into a massive error.

So instead of signing for us, Schwartz would prefer to stay at Midtjylland with absolutely no prospect of any playing time.
Says a lot for us then!1 -
I guess we return to the ITK issue and rumour not being fact. WIOTOSse9addick said:

And of course, if Orient are due £400k, then we receive £1.6m. How much of this is actually intended to buy players and how much is going to be used to wipe debts?MuttleyCAFC said:What has happened is the Bonne sale has potentially turned into a massive error.
