Transfer Rumour January transfer window (41 Viewers)

[SkyBlueDom26]

To be fair a lot of people thought we were short in midfield.
That's why thin skinned King decided to speak about it at the forum and tell us we were wrong, the fucking tit

Don’t start saying king was wrong on here, you’ll get all his fans jumping on you

So If my memory is right. We agreed a deal to bring him here in January but allowed Peterborough to look for a replacement. They couldn’t find one in time and as such wanted to either increase the deal or pull out completely. Keep in mind posh already said they would charge more in the summer

As it was already expensive we didn’t want to increase it but did, only for posh to still say no. We then agreed they could keep him if they paid his wages, we didn’t pay any instalment's until he was with us and we had a reduced price on him.

McAnthony said that he has promised Ferguson not to sell any of the players and undermine the play off push. Thus the only way a deal could be done was through a loan back.

At the time I would have much rather had the player but as it turns out, and given that EMC’s best position seems to be hard to accommodate alongside Haji Wright, I can’t see how we would have played him anyway.

Sheaf out again, we need 2 x CM for definite now, knowing us we'll get 2 wingers

1 at best

And play them CM

 

[quinn1971]

At the start of the season, people were creaming themselves over our strength in depth, well fuck me, we're down to bare bones very quickly and looking ragged-arsed
The whole shitshow is a shambles and King & co need to step up fucking soon.

Now Peterborough are in a relegation fight.

The sheer arrogance of him thinking that will result in us signing nobody

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Would go all out for Lewis O’Brien now. LA have decided not to buy as couldn’t afford the cost.

 

[CovLad94]

Surely to God we have to be interested..

Goblin be honest are you an alt account? You spend an awful lot of time on here for someone who only signed up in June!! It usually takes people a few years of the nonsense on here to get addicted!!

 

[quinn1971]

its the disappointment an hour before the game when the team sheet goes up, when it sinks in that wer‘e miles away, that squad is shocking

 

[Chris1987]

Biggest summer balls up was signing BTA instead of a CM . The urgency of the CM issue was obvious to virtually everyone with the exception of those responsible for recruitment and final purchase decisions.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Surely to God we have to be interested..

Experienced quality midfielder, not a chance Doug signs him for us

 

[Captain Dart]

Lampard said he was back in training early January didn’t he?

On grass this week if all went well.

 

[hamil99]

I know it's a pipe dream but I'd love us to bring in James Milner. He would be perfect, professional, experienced and the captain we need.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

No first account. Sounds silly but used to be worried about signing up to online accounts, so would view this for information. When I started my X I thought fuck it

Didn’t get all the hype the start of the season, not really suprising where we are

Haha my favourite bit of that was him mentioning Palmer after he'd left the club

 

[Pusb1]

Whatever anyone says

a midfield of Eccles, Allen and Torp is the worst in the division by a considerable margin. All utter dross

If they aren’t added to we’re in real danger of dropping the 2nd half of the season

 

[quinn1971]

Sums it up when sheaf’s out for 6 weeks and I don‘t think we’ll miss him on current form, no pressure on who the first signing will be, but it‘ll tell us a lot

 

[skybluecam]

no it isn't, calm down and dry your eyes

 

[wingy]

If sheaf is out for a bit and we don’t sell him, would probably just go for a 4-3-3 with Joel playing the DM

He's off, apparently?

 

[quinn1971]

no it isn't, calm down and dry your eyes

Bonus is, least nobody will be coming in for any of our midfielders,

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Any idea how long EMC is out for @Saddlebrains

Bristol city will have been 3 weeks since injury

Lampard said Haji would be out for 2-3 weeks and EMC ‘longer’ so a minimum of 4 weeks from now. We’ve had some tough luck with injuries and this Sheaf news adds to it.

 

[pusbccfc]

Not forgetting he was one of the best midfielders in the league last year? Oh yeah let’s weaken our already weak midfield even more

There was no big money offers in the summer anyway, was just made up on here

If someone offers the money that was being discussed, you have to consider it.

 

[pusbccfc]

Hindsight is a wonderful thing though. Could you imagine the uproar if he had of been sold?

Not if he had been sold for over £10m

 

[Matt smith]

Lampard said Haji would be out for 2-3 weeks and EMC ‘longer’ so a minimum of 4 weeks from now. We’ve had some tough luck with injuries and this Sheaf news adds to it.

Hopefully they’ll both be in and around it in the next couple weeks.

 

[rexo87]

I’d be all over Lewis O’Brien but no doubt he’ll go to Sheff U or someone similar

 

[quinn1971]

Can honestly see nobody coming in, top 6 has gone and as bad as we are we’ve just got enough to stay up, no,point in panic signing players

I hope you are right about just got enough to stay up.
