aneke did post about Pearce signing a new contract on his Instagram....depends how much you look into that....judging by the previous 4 pages I expect a full investigation3

We tried that with Tommy - even used on-line reviews.addick1956 said:

Will Boyle Pop.
And trust his middle name isn't Lance.....1 -
Not concerned because I always thought signing the right quality players was going to be difficult. Too many clubs in for same players. Having said that I am beginning to think that things haven’t gone well and it’s actually been more difficult than the club thought. Still plenty of players and time so not moving to worried just yet but it would be nice to see something happen soon.1

Buyens, predictive txt.addick1956 said:
Buyers was a very good player at Championship level. I don't remember Benhaim much ! Was he a CB?995632 said:
Yoni Buyens and Benhaim were good for us...ElliotCAFC said:
Did they? I remember most being woefully inept at Championship level. The only successful ones I can remember are Astrit Ajdarević, Bulot and Tony Watt (sort of).Richard J said:
This was actually the model that Duchalet advocated. He just wasn't good at the implementation.KingKinsella said:
Really informative video thanks, interesting that Barnsley seem to be doing a Duchalet style empire of clubs in different countries.Perhaps they will get it right, different personalities etc.NapaAddick said:Good video about how Moneyball really works at Brentford, for those interested. They got promoted being the biggest net sellers... sellers!.... in the Championship since their promotion from L1. And how Barnsley is also playing Moneyball now and went from promotion to 17th to 5th this season. Billy Beane consults for them, btw, since 2017. Yes, if you do it right, you can be net sellers and still get promoted.

It really fell apart when he sold Standard Liege after that there were no clubs left that we could realistically take players off. Remember that many of the SL players played quite well for us
Tal Ben Haim, Israeli international played for Chelski partnered Andre Bikey (BEAST) well, for half a season.2 -
Senpai said:You know what really grinds my gears? This website.
It’s just a load of fans who reckon their club should be in for x player and get to write an article about it. There is never any insider info contained within, they’re just opinion pieces to fluff out a website plastered with advertising.
Thing is, the fact it’s on an EFL news site, it’ll now be a fact that Peterborough are in the race and if he signs with another League One club, it’ll be a coup. But the story here (like 90% of the stuff on this site) originated out of a Peterborough teenager’s bedroom.I could sign up to write for them and say I reckon we should be after Harry Kane and it would probably get published. Next thing you know we’re in the race according to multiple sources. Ok probably an extreme example but you get my point.
Sorry rant over. I usually think these nonsense rumours are great fun but that website poses as something it’s not and it gets my back up. :-)5 - Sponsored links:

I was out all day when we signed Stockley
I was out this afternoon, and we re-sign Pearce and Watson
On that basis, as I expect to be out most of Thursday, expect our next transfer business then8 -
I have a feeling Aneke will re-sign rather than resign! I base that on not really hearing rumours of better clubs than us being interested which I would have expected to.0

So, either Amos, Mathews or JFC then...🙂killerandflash said:I was out all day when we signed Stockley

I just googled Will Boyle and this was the latest news article I could find. The rest were a month old. I’ve not heard of the website before so I take your word for it.Callumcafc said:Senpai said:You know what really grinds my gears? This website.

From now on, it's all about contract extensions for Forster Caskey, Aneke, Amos and new signings.0 -

Just heard Sterling wants out….1

Might have been a decent signing 3 years ago but he is 30 now, ruptured his ACL last year and has missed more than half of his matches the last 3 seasons. Surely we can do better.Richard J said:Josh Morris signs for Salford.

That's bollocks and you know it, do you think Bowyer bumped into him outside the job center when he went to get his morning paper, twice?RonnieMoore said:

Yeah, someone on twitter has just said there are BIG rumours that sandgaard doesn't have any money and needs to sell the club. I'd say it's panic stations.
Then again the guys previous tweet was "Adkins out" so there's a small chance he just chats shit.3 -
