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, he's reliable, I see he has heard the same. Let's see if it gets done. There's outgoings now, wages have been freed up, could be time to move on it.so are you saying it’s Thomas-Asante or not?
Interesting. Personally I just don’t see how it makes sense. But we’ll see I guess.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.

Exactly my thoughts.West brom are willing to let their top scorer go , for a couple million to a championship promotion rival ?
Seems a stretch
FP is pretty good tbf. Doesn't give a shit load but when he does it usually ends up being true.And forgive my pessimism , but we have so many know alot know fuck all fans that just like to either cause a stir or gain attention for their social media handles
The success rate so far this pre season is at an all time low
No I like Fernando and can't imagine he'd be a Billy bullshitter I'm more on about the many many twats besides him .FP is pretty good tbf. Doesn't give a shit load but when he does it usually ends up being true.

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.

I appreciate the input, you seem a genuine guy so hopefully this materialises. Be a good signing if so.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 agreement also.
What happens is someone will post on Twitter they've heard a player is having a medical, another person will take that rumour and run with it, adding 2 and 2 together, getting 5.
I said Godden's exit should materialise this week, then we should see if there's any movement.
We as a club were very heavy with the Hamer posts on social media in pre season, he still left. I can't fathom why a player returning to his place of work means he cannot move on during the transfer window.
I think a lot of people are impatient, so they then get frustrated when something doesn't progress immediately.
I never once stated it would be imminent. Hopefully now we are seeing some outgoings, things can move forward.
Be interesting times if we did.No I like Fernando and can't imagine he'd be a Billy bullshitter I'm more on about the many many twats besides him .
I know he's said were talking with them , but on this one I cannot see us signing him , seems a stretch
Cannon was unlucky last season with injuries, they brought him in to help them get out of that league but didn’t really get much of a look in so would very much be risking the unknown.
I think they will go for safe bets up front for them so a loan out could be on the cards and realistically with games thick and fast we will need to rotate to keep fresh.
Realistic?… probably not. Wishful yes definitely

Funny really, we paid half as much for Simms who was more experienced with a better record£7.5m transfer fee, £45k p/w, 3 starts all season.
Knew he had a stress fracture in his back, signed him anyway... And people wonder how they got in a mess financially.
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.I appreciate the input, you seem a genuine guy so hopefully this materialises.

On paper it does look that way. I have a good friend who worked for Albion for many years and when I messaged asking what he thought, if he had any inside info, he said 'Been gone too long for that. He was our weakest link last year. Not his fault really, but he misses a lot of chances. He works hard, capabale of scoring great goals but misses too many chances. I don't want us to sell him, but I don't want us to start him either' - so from a Baggies POV, I don't think it's like we're stealing their best player.West brom are willing to let their top scorer go , for a couple million to a championship promotion rival ?

Exactly what my WBA supporting mate said. A decent impact sub but not good enough as a regular starter.On paper it does look that way.

The WBA manager left him on the bench several times when they had no other fit forwards, that probably tells you something.If we went off this forum , and west brom fans were interested in callum o hare .. they'd get the impression he wasn't good enough either

He better be dirt cheap then.Exactly what my WBA supporting mate said. A decent impact sub but not good enough as a regular starter.
This is what I’ve been saying, I live over West Brom and the in laws are all WBA fans. He isn’t a great player - any thing over £2m and we’re overpayingHe better be dirt cheap then.
Isn't that what we want?Exactly what my WBA supporting mate said. A decent impact sub but not good enough as a regular starter.
At this stage in the club’s development, don’t we need a player who is going to compete with our 2 main strikers and try and get a competitive squad? It’s a long season with plenty of games, suspensions and injuries. The third striker will get plenty of game time and we should feel comfortable having them as a starter if needed. If it’s just an impact sub we’re after, we might as well stick with Tavares.Isn't that what we want?
Yeh no difference between Asante-Thomas and Tavares...

I’m not saying there is no difference. I don’t know anything about BTA other than what I’m reading on this forum, which is he’s not great, but might be a useful impact sub. I’m just saying that if we want to be competing top end of the table, shouldn’t we want better than that, and provide good competition for what we already have.Yeh no difference between Asante-Thomas and Tavares...

I don’t know anything about BTA
Well there's your problem. This forum talks shite.I’m not saying there is no difference. I don’t know anything about BTA other than what I’m reading on this forum

Exactly, a bit like when Swansea fans laughed at us spending £1 million on GyokeresNice that we've written off another player in the 'glint in the milksman's eye' stage of the transfer/rumour. Gotta get that negativity in nice and early.
