    And what about the Qatari club, what do they gain?

    A pretty decent signing for a few years to come. Maybe Roland would only sell with this clause inserted.

    I really haven't got a clue, probably all a nothing really, but there must be something there for John Chapman to tweet it!

    Agree, it's an interesting development. Just trying to make sense of it all.

    He's apparently gone for 8x his current salary...

    EDIT: As Callum got his note above in before mine, I should clarify Ezekiel went for 8x salary. We aren't paying Nick Powell 8x more than the mancs...I think!! ;-)

    And what about the Qatari club, what do they gain?

    I heard that the Qataris are looking to gain kudos and business relationships with influential Europeans who also run football clubs. The idea being that they will bid to stage the World Cup in the near future.

    Of course this is ridiculous because how would FIFA allow the world cup to be played in +40 degree heat in a country which has never played in the world cup finals.
  • Why would Ezekial need to be a Quatari national in order to play football there? I wish people would think before they post nonsense that generates dozens of meaningless comments.

    The idea is he plays there long enough to qualify for Qatar and play in the 2022 World Cup.
  • Can I just clarify: was the Nick Powell rumour nonsense? Or is there anything to that?..

    What do you expect on the rumour thread, it is a rumour. How many of these rumours ever happen

    Multiple sources reporting it? AtleticoAddick confirming/hinting that it's true? Just something that could give it more validity really

    I would like to think it could be true, but probably all came from the same source, how good that is we will have to wait and see

    It's Nick Powell and Bahebeck

    If that's true, I genuinely think we may compete for the playoffs this season.. Really don't think Bahebeck will sign though . Powell I'm not sure but doubtful

    Apparently that's who I was told, but could be wrong could be right, won't believe it until they are signed

    If it's Sam Baldock I'd be disappointed, but I've seen some of our fans thinking he'll be a good singing, I'm not so sure
  • If we got Powell and Bahbeck I'll be shocked but would be very very happy. I'm still concerned at the moment, I know it's only pre season but the lack of goals is a bit worrying.

    Would love to sign powell and bahbeck but don't think it will happen. Too good to be true

    If we sign Powell and Baheback I won't tattoo it on my arse

    Who were you told by, out of interest? Sorry to pry, but just trying to gauge the reliability!

    Apparently, someone I know, knows someone who works at the training ground at Sparrows Lane reckons it could be those two and when (if) they both sign, then that's us done for signings
