Does this mean we’ll have to pay a fee for him?
But he’s not a free agent?The Peter Crouch rumour was just that a rumour tm based on that he’s a free agent, that’s if he is. Never likely to happen but then there was Joe Cole!
No, he was on loan initially, then negotiated himself out his contract at villa to join on a permanent dead in January.Cole wasn't a free agent was he?
(I really don't believe the Crouch rumour, just trolling)
Agreed, you'd be Dumbo to think otherwise.Just a matter of time then.
From the montage of clips he looks just what we need.
There will be on going rumours and counter rumour, Chaplin says he wants regular first team football, that won’t be at Ipswich, something needs to be sorted and soon though, transfer window closes in less than a fortnight.
Feels to me that we have pinned all our hopes on this kid from Portsmouth - surely there are other options within our budget worth exploring?
Think we should line something up in case this all goes pear-shaped!
Why does it 'seem to you' that? The club has never come out and said anything about Chaplin, this is all noise on Portsmouth's side.
Robins doesn't do his transfer business in public, he barely even acknowledges that he's looking for players.
Latest for you guys. Today Jackett has said there are no firm bids for Chaplin that are ready to proceed.
Who to believe eh?

The transfer window closes on August 9th, in over 3 weeks....
I think its the premier league season and we've just joined the same day as them.I actually thought it closed before the season started too, I thought the whole point of the change was so things were done before the start of the season??

That was the plan originally I think, don't understand why it's been put in-between the EFL and Premier League start dates though.
Wouldn't surprise me if Pompey would prefer this. Would we want to sell to a rival club?Any truth in this? - Or is it the usual Bollocks!
Coventry City Rumours
I understand Ipswich are trying to beat Coventry to to signing of Conor Chaplin from Portsmouth. Ipswich have offered £400k +the usual add ons, which they are hopeful Portsmouth will accept. I also understand it is Chaplin's preference to join the Tractor Boys who he has spoken with former defender Adam Webster, about the club.
Re Chaplin. It’s right what Nick says this so called interest in Chaplin has been played out by Portsmouth and Jackett in particular, I get the feeling they need one out for as much as possible to get this wishfor Eise in. Not a word as yet from Robins on any interest he may have for anyone anywhere, he operates very secretly and so he should
I thought you said he’d be signing today?

And their other two brothers, plus their cousin Vince.I think Crouch is a straight replacement for the two Kelly Evans.
Who cares what Today Jackett has to say, we are only interested in the words of his brother, Kenny.Latest for you guys. Today Jackett has said there are no firm bids for Chaplin that are ready to proceed.
