Transfer Rumour Marko Stamenic (6 Viewers)

[David O'Day]

I'd take anything turner says with a pinch of salt, he does ask the club but the club is not going to confirm anything with him until everything is complete and the player is being pictured at Ryton.

Think our scouts have been in the bush in the last few months …

Well they're not beating about the bush

Pouring lots of cold water

Well that's hugely deflating

 

[David O'Day]

He doesn’t get the exclusives but his info on whether things are happening does always tend to be good.

The club are not going to confirm they are signing someone with him until it is complete.

Most of his info on players we have signed before has some from other reports like "player x is flying to England today"

 

[Nick]

Turner is just saying no announcement... Doesn't mean it isn't a done deal.

 

[mark82]

All it says is that we aren't expected to announce anything this week.

He's clearly been told by the club that he wont be signing this week, hence the story. From all accounts Turner has a decent relationship with Robins and the club so theyre not going to stitch him up here

how? it doesn't say we are not signing him or even that we are signing him

 

[eyesee]

hey, i'm running around with my cov shirt pulled over my head. this better be for real!

 

[Winny the Bish]

No announcement soon could just mean “everyone’s on holiday till next week, so there’s no social team to make the welcome announcement”

 

[robbiethemole]

Well that's hugely deflating

Seriously? Like Turnip knows anything hahahahaha

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Wouldn’t really expect big announcements at this time of the year anyway. Like others have said everyone is on holiday. I’m sure we got an article like this about 3 weeks before we officially signed Hamer.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

I thought the consensus was we weren't going to be spending unless we sold Sheaf or Vik was sold?

 

[SHUNT31]

He is. I cannot believe it but I did look at his Insta and he's in Greece. The obligatory "welcome to Coventry" was one of the replies!

The post says ‘Frames from May’ so may not be currently on holiday. I do like the comment though.

Saw something that suggested he was included within the Olympic squad and may want to get any move sorted before then.

 

[BlueSkiesForever]

Browne is more proven in the championship…

Yeah I get he’s got experience but he just doesn’t fill me with hope, it’s not a signing I’d be raving about and I don’t think he’s any better than Sheaf or has potential to be better than Sheaf. Just seems like a bit of a sideways move to me personally.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Perhaps Doug has very deep pockets if this does come to fruition because I dont know where this 5m would have come from but Im all for it and hoping it comes through

 

[SHUNT31]

Sheaf linked with United now! Not sure how credible this is, but still.

 

[Deleted member 162]

If we're talking selling to Man Utd we can at least get 50m for Sheaf based on their previous spending habits for the last decade.

 

[SkyB]

Crazy that the guy is actually somewhat credible as well!

 

[SHUNT31]

Is he actually? Never came across him before so not sure.

 

[Deity]

robin’s and Adi Holidays are a total red herring.

Deals get done at the first opportunity to close, no one waits for a manager to come back from holiday and run the risk of another club swooping in.

 

[Viktor17]

Its a goer apparently

@Saddlebrains is this linked to Sheaf leaving at all?

So true. Do people just expect Robins to be on holiday by the pool, sipping pina colada’s and taking part in the water aerobics?

Absolutely no chance. He’ll be on the blower and zoom calls every day talking to prospective and potential signings. He’ll still be doing his wheeling and dealing.

Yeah but deals can be done before announcements are made

 

[SIR ERNIE]

To be fair, he's a far better than a lot of the crap they have at the moment.

 

[hamertime]

How are the sales going

Not very well, hence why Doug’s trying to pay for his extension and swimming pool via undisclosed fee transactions.

...who missed our penalties at wembley?

May also be one of our own whos attracting interest

Eho???

Eho???

I presume he means Eccles.

Although I hate Utd I wouldn’t begrudge him for going there

 

[biggymania]

I'd be amazed if Utd actually went for this, but relative to a lot their targets he'd probably be "cheap" and I think we all know he could probably move his game on a level in the right environment. Utd being an absolute basket case for a decade or more now makes it a risky move though.

If we have more than one Premiership club in for him I think we have to go for it and maximise the fee we get - his value won't increase next year given the contract situation.

Will be a huge loss of course, but this is the way.

Every chance the deal is done, just waiting for staff/Robins to come back from his break for the photos/interviews etc.

 

[eyesee]

not a great time to move to manure. they seem to think the way to improve things is to have more people around the boardroom table.
