CL_Phantom said:We can put a cheeky low offer in all we want, the situation we've put ourselves into is who's more desperate, Gillingham for cash or us for half decent players. This was the risk off thinking we can find major bargains at the end of the window, we might but we might not.
We made the remainder of the window a mini January, clubs and agents will see our league position, read the quotes from Adkins about needing help, going to be a lot of who blinks first. Can the club's needing money hold off until January more so than us...
Wave a million in front of them and take Dempsey and Tucker 😬1 -

I’d be very tempted to try and get Dempsey and Tucker and loan them the likes of Deji, Vennings or our Dempsey. Unlikely I know but I hope if we add that some of the U23’s get some time elsewhere.1

Redrobo said:Forest were said to be interested in Dempsey earlier in the window and said to have been quoted £750k
Also rumours that Evans is threatening to leave as deeply unchuffed. Obviously won’t unless offered another job, but does suggest that all is not well in their camp.6 -

It depresses me more as we don't look like scoring a single goal these days 😂8 -

We won't be the only ones in for Dempsey or Lowery. Just hope while we're negotiating, someone doesn't just swoop in and meet the asking price .2

The big spenders in this division have finished feeding in the trough. We are getting down to decision time now. Gillingham have released this information, and have no doubt done so to see if they can drum up another bidder. At £200k they may well spike some interest. That’s life.0 -

I'm sure we're not the only club to have thought "let's wait to the end of the window and get a good deal" all it'll take is an Oxford or a championship club looking for a cheap punt bidding 50k more than us and we lose out at the death.

Have we actually been linked with Lowery other than on here?1

I'm never in the know but £500k gets him0 -

If the plan has been to wait until the end of the window someone has balls of steel. If it works and we get our targets then it is a very shrewd move. If it doesnt work and we end up scrapping the barrel then it will be disastrous. Fine lines indeed7

Cawley on the Dempsey link, everyone stand down!

‘Highly unlikely’ is quite adamant though.1

Are we sure this was a definite bid and not just Gills stoking up interest and the price?0
