Yes and Dabo was absolutely quality as were O'hare, Walsh, Godden, Rose, McFadz and Allen. Far far more successes in terms of recruitment than failures that's for sure.
Wow that’s a lot of faith being placed by Robins in the recruitment staff after how Kastaneer turned out and Jobello was just okay

I was listing the two players we signed who had never played in the UK. I think you have to go back to Aron Gunnarsson in 2008 to the last one who was a success

Yeah they also signed Dabo. Unfair to write Jobello off after 10 gamesWow that’s a lot of faith being placed by Robins in the recruitment staff after how Kastaneer turned out and Jobello was just okay
No look at my post aboveOne bad signing out of how many and you write off the recruitment team!?
Google translate mate. Who am I to argue?How much for the rest of him?
The fans of Kastaneer's old club, may have been Twente I can't quite remember, were pretty derogatory about his attitude when he left them.Translating some Dutch tweets about this, they seem disappointed for him to be leaving. Always a good sign. Rather that than the Walsall fans reaction when we signed Baka.
They were rightThe fans of Kastaneer's old club, may have been Twente I can't quite remember, were pretty derogatory about his attitude when he left them.
It's hamer time!!!
IndeedThey were right

Expect it to appear in the CovTel in a matter of minutes
Yep, and arguably we created more chances when Jobello was in the team.I feel like Jobello was really starting to grow into it after an average start.
Kastaneer felt like an out of the blue signing based on Badlan's comments about him being well above our level and having scouted him years previous.
You heard anything about this lad better daysThey were right

Nothing at all so farYou heard anything about this lad better days
Nothing at all so far
Mind you all I heard about Kasta was that we were looking at 'a big Dutch lad' so it wouldn't surprise me if there is something in this
On the other hand it might be his agent trying to drum up interest from other clubs
Just because I want to believe this rather than I actually believe this, but:
When Sisu first came there was a definite strategy of paying decent money (for us, at the time) for young players with potential. Problem was we then got Chris Coleman to manage them, but those first few of Dann, Fox, Westwood were a definite strategy. Then everything went to tits.
What if now we’re back (touch wood) and have a manager who has proven himself and Joy is directly involved, there’s a chance for some money to spend (on sensible signings for the level, that have a potential for a decent return)?
We know the owners aren’t short of cash even if the club are.
Host of questions about finances and sustainability and the like. But what if?
maybe MR has been told in secret we're going up and we get some money for promotion? plus we have the money from Norwich for McCallum
We have been doing this for a while haven’t we just with smaller fees? Chaplin, Bakayoko, Allassani? It’s the same strategy
Walsh will probably be playing for Bristol CityWould love this to be true but is it likely in the current climate? Plus would Walsh be more of an option for us in the Championship?
I agree. Perhaps we made our interest known before Covid and it’s only just being reported now as a recent development?Is it realistic, given the current situation, for any club (let alone us) to be offering 7 figure fees for relatively unknown players?
Does anyone know what the market will look like in 2 months’ time, let alone now?
Surely it’s agents trying to pump up the interest / fee. Just can’t see us chucking £1.5m at a player that might be the next Kastaneer.
