About MacGillivray. Didn't Adkins say recently that if Amos went then AMB would be our number one. If so then MacGillivray won't come to sit on the bench. You'd need an older pro as backup in that case.

So why are we wasting our time offering him a contract? If he’s that determined to move home we shouldn’t be wasting any time on him.RonnieMoore said:

Does that strike anyone as a bit too rich of a contract for his quality?FAVADDICK said:Apparently Amos has signed a 3 year deal with Wigan2 -
I bet we didn’t offer more than 2 years. More than likely 1 and probably another factor for Amos to sign for Wigan.FAVADDICK said:Apparently Amos has signed a 3 year deal with Wigan1 -
If only there was some info on this thread rather than opinion.

Oops sorry it's 66 days.Hopefully we’ll have the makings of a squad by the Dartford match and then be pretty much ready by Reading (aside from a final enormous marquee signing on deadline day).5 -
Well that has occurred to me as a possibility too. Not a certainty, but a distinct possibility. You have to be careful what you say on this site when you lose a proven goal scorer at this level who will be incredibly difficult to replace as some think it is a positive.NapaAddick said:
Or maybe we don’t have the money. Why is no one considering this very obvious option? Just because TS has $800M does not mean he is going to spend it on us. I’ve not seen him ever say he was going to splash any cash on us and in fact still does not own any club assets like the stadium or training ground, correct? As I feel I must keep pointing out, we are net sellers since his arrival. Maybe the reason we are losing our players and not winning bids for some is simply down to the fact he won’t spend that kind of money and the agents and players know this and we do not. Is no one other than myself considering this possibility? At all? If not, why not?MuttleyCAFC said:What I don't get is Amos to Wigan. We know we were trying to sign him, so how can Wigan with all their troubles beat us to that signature. I suppose if I had a pair of rose tinted specs I would speculate that we have changed our mind or have somebody better lined up. Waiting to hear who it is.1 -
I think Adkins was using the media to try to get Amos & his agent to sign a contract with us with that comment. He hoped it would limit their demands by announcing that he had someone else in the squad good enough to be number 1. In reality I expect the club would much prefer AMB to get some loan experience before being relied on.LargeAddick said:Can't believe people would take Williams back.

Similarly NA also told the media that all our out of contract players had told him they wanted to stay!!....in the hope that this comment encouraged them to sign up.1 -

They're going to be an interesting one to see what they actually do. Had a £1m+ bid rejected for Dion Sanderson the young Wolves defender they had on loan last season.Chris_from_Sidcup said:

Not entirely sure if throwing huge money at it is the best way of getting out of this league0 -
Just a few different sites.0

Agree on Williams, he’s not going to suddenly change into the player we want him to be just by playing for Adkins rather than Bowyer.LargeAddick said:Can't believe people would take Williams back.

On the GK situation not quite, Adkins said he’d have no issue playing AMB and that he’ll either be first choice here or go on loan. Instead of Amos staying I think we’ll sign a first choice GK and loan AMB out.1 -
Wigan fans seem too be happy with closing in on signing Amos.0

The slight worry for me is, if teams in league 1 are paying silly money or offering over the top wages Is we might miss out on some of the players were after.
Has anything been said about Thomas having a wage structure?

I doubt we were offering a three year deal to Amos makes sense if he’s taken the offer from Wigan. This nonsense that he wanted to move back up North, if that were the case why wait until now to move? You’d just part ways and club would have moved on. He’s also been down South for about four years so don’t think it’s purely down to that, money talks and it looks like Wigan are paying out top dollar.0

Portsmouth have billionaire owner also I read Wigan owners worth £250m,Thomas worth more then the Wigan owners.0

If you weren’t that familiar with him then he would probably sound like a good signing. Strong pedigree coming from the United academy, and just played every game for the team that finished seventh in the division. His YouTube highlights video is probably pretty good too.Valley27000 said:Wigan fans seem too be happy with closing in on signing Amos.1 -

It’s well known that Portsmouth are trying to cut their operating costs substantially this season hence not re-signing their player of the yearValley27000 said:Portsmouth have billionaire owner also I read Wigan owners worth £250m,Thomas worth more then the Wigan owners.1 -
If MacGillivary doesn't end up signing for whatever reason, as most on here hope, then we are really in shit street regarding GK as it seems that is the only name being banded about... now Nixon has appeared on the sceneScoham said:Nixon with the groundbreaking news that we’re interested in MacGillivray.
,.... let's just hope it isn't the kiss of death on any deal. 3 -
No chance he’s the only GK on our list. We don’t have any names for some positions, doesn’t mean we’re not looking to sign anyone.eastterrace6168 said:

Why do people always see the negative, all managers bemoan the lack of control once a game kicks off. At this rate our manager will be in goal so he can help the team even more.Scoham said:
