    Really strange behaviour.

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    I'm not surprised. It's the reason I was so reluctant to give his name, which I do regret. I'm not on Facebook, only on Twitter, which I barely use. A friend did point out to me the day after I gave away his name on here, George Smith pops up. I've had a little look, he's not giving out names...

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    I won't mention any names, that was wrong on my part. I don't want George Smiths' Twitter to be blowing up. I will say no need for any panic, lots going on behind the scenes. I think some fans need to change their mind set, with regards to 'bench warmers' and 'first 11's' etc. That's not the...

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    All for the tapping up. I think these days it's only frowned upon when managers talk of other players, not so much what goes on behind the scenes. Rudoni was made well aware we wanted him, and that goes a long way, if a player feels wanted then it can sway deals.

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    WBA may have accepted a bid from Hull, but the player himself has to want to go and agree personal terms. We've been talking to him for a long time now, I don't believe Hull was ever in his mind. Goes to show that creating good relationships with potential signings can give you the edge when it...

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    Not sure on the media making out as though it was hijacked. As I said from the beginning, it's been a long time coming. A lot of time and effort has gone into securing him. Stand by what I said, think it's a good signing, shows intent and pushes us toward our goals of a more rotational squad...

    Match Thread SV Darmstadt v Coventry

    There was a period last season where he wasn't being picked, he went into MR office to have a word. Suddenly he was made captain for the game after, and featured pretty much wherever he could be used after that point, even when injured towards the end of the season.

    Ex Player Watch

    "Things happened and I was took out the team". Perhaps he should've elaborated so people could make their own mind up. Nobody is entitled to be in the team every week, and a professional response to being dropped based on performances would go down a lot better than a petulant one. This...

    New striker

    I've heard nothing concrete. Perhaps Fernando may have heard more. Talks were being had for many months. As I said before, Albion didn't want to let go in January, which was understandable due to league position. I heard the player was keen to get things done. One thing I do know, DK won't be...

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    I hope it does. I think people just forget the many factors. It can't be buying all the time, we have a structure to follow and can't be irresponsible. A few off the wage bill and things start to move again. Plus the selling club have to be onboard. If we don't land some of our targets, it...

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    I'm not here to cause a stir, and I barely use social media. I've never come on here and posted anything I have known about. I originally posted in the Windass thread, as I wanted people to understand that we were aiming for better than that. We'll see if it gets done.

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    Yes, I stated a while back when It was I had found out, and that it's been an ongoing thing. Talks are being had. I said I hope it gets done, and that I believe he would be a great upgrade on an ageing Godden. I believe other people are hearing of it, there's another poster on here, Fernando...

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    Yes, I only recently created this account, however I've long been a reader of here. Like I said, I don't usually get involved as I see how people respond to others if they share any information. I said we have been in talks with the player for a long time. The two clubs have to come to an...

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    Godden exit should materialise this week. Lots happening behind the scenes. Let's see if there's some movement soon.

    Callum Doyle

    When I was told, it was a week after he'd been sent off in a match (forgive me I don't know without looking), so its been a long time. We last spoke about him in particular about 3 weeks ago and nothing had changed. He had however received his first call up to the international squad. Both him...

    Callum Doyle

    I personally think it would be a great investment. They are short, but as another poster pointed out, he wasn't always given the chance, which Is why after hearing we were in talks with him, it left me thinking we must be changing shape with the idea of integrating him. Also gives us great...

    Callum Doyle

    It's not him. I think our business so far has been very good, but judging by the response by some on here / X to them, I think a lot will feel underwhelmed. Not myself though, I stick with the feeling of intent, good business in my eyes. Proven at championship level, much more to come from him.

    Callum Doyle

    He's definitely a forward, don't think I've said attacker.
