Geez!!!
Can we please ban the next person who does a John Harriot tweet link.
Could well be.still wouldn't be surprised to see the deal done before the 9th, it think he is forcing Pompeys hands
If Chaplin really wanted to come here, he'd force the hand of Pompey. I'm not convinced he really wanted to move to be honest.
Oh well, trust in MR to get someone else in.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo....... we will never get to page 50!
What is the obsession with transfer fees?I hope we sign Chaplin, if we don’t, do you see us spending any money (not including nominal fees etc) on any alternative players?
Well that's not good enough. We shouldn't have sold the man responsible for 40% of our goals last season if we didn't have a sure thing on to replace him.
Looks like Robins has done his best Mowbray impression here.
Let's hope he has some other irons in the fire and can redeem it all.
So you think it’s good business to be entering the season with Jonson Clarke-Harris and Maxine Biamou as our only senior strikers? Didn’t you spend the whole of last season crying every time Biamou was on the pitch?Grow up

I'd prefer another mcnulty than someone who costs £1m and is shite.
Or spend the money on wages for a good player out of contract than an average player we have to pay to get out of contract.
Think people need to stop wishing this was a game of football manager/FIFA

He said in his last interview that he had a plan B that could be completed very quickly should he not be able to land his preferred target. I wouldn't be surprised if that means another loan from ChelseaIf he’s pulled the plug then I’d imagine someone is on their way imminently.

We (Coleman?)also tried to "try before you buy" loan him, but Wolves said Nah, you can't and then just fuckin bought him!Freddy Eastwood: the best striker we’ve had in the last 12 years.
Wait, that’s not how transfer fees work...

No, we signed Eastwood in 2008.We (Coleman?)also tried to "try before you buy" loan him, but Wolves said Nah, you can't and then just fuckin bought him!
If we were unsure, we shoulda walked away.
Wasn't Kenny Jackett thier manager then also?
From Mad Mick McCarthyNo, we signed Eastwood in 2008.
Jackett was the manager at Wolves when Leon Clarke’s “head was turned” though.From Mad Mick McCarthy
Presumably implying if Pompey go for Rose then Chaplin move could be back on.What a weird article, says we've moved onto other targets and Rose isn't one of them. Then spends the rest of the article about Danny Rose??????
When does a signing need to be completed to be eligible to play Saturday?
There's not been any concrete evidence that we have any money available to spend in the first place. Nothing official has ever been said about our supposed interest in ChaplinI wouldn't mind that as long as we put the money aside to sign someone in January or next summer. As long as it's the right loan signing, of course.

Equally, it's very unusual for a Robins signing to be rumoured much before it actually happens. All of our other signings pretty much came out of the blue (Morgan Williams aside but that seemed to be a hitch with the paperwork). It's just not in Robins MO to do it this way. I don't doubt we have had some contact over Chaplin, but I'm not convinced he has been our only target all this time either.Robins has always been quick to deny rumours that aren't accurate, you can usually take his lack of denial as confirmation when a rumour gets to this stage. Grasping at straws a bit all this "did we even want him?" Stuff.
I'd be happy with a loan until Jan TBH, just need someone in who can do a job. Must be loads of kids in Prem 2 who would jump at a chance of first team football. What's the England U19 CF like?
Not at all. I'm just saying there has been an assumption that we would be spending some of the McNulty money, which may not be the caseWhat are you expecting a screenshot of their bank balance?
Geez, Charlie, you do realise the season hasn't started yet don't you?So you think it’s good business to be entering the season with Jonson Clarke-Harris and Maxine Biamou as our only senior strikers? Didn’t you spend the whole of last season crying every time Biamou was on the pitch?
