Transfer targets?

KR seems to have spoken to more agents than the head of the FBI. Very quiet on the transfer side of things considering he wanted to get his business done early doors.
How do you know its down to KR? Maybe he's done everything he can and he's waiting for the club and the players.

The transfer window has been open a week. I have a suspicion we'll here something early next week
 
Jesus Christ, KR says he wants transfer business done early! But I bet he didn’t mean the first 2 weeks the window opens.

You have to take into consideration players go on holidays, and I’m sure mid June - July we will see next seasons squad taking shape.
 
I reckon early means before preason.
Exactly. What KR means is he intends to avoid the majority of of his business being done after the players are back pre-season training. Plenty of time yet, looking at the deals being done so far at our level, most involve either players coming up from non-league or players at ‘last chance saloon’ grateful for any deal they can get. This is the wooing season, with agents trotting round the country peddling their wares while the players in question are floating around swimming pools in hot climates sipping on malibus and checking their phones for updates occasionally
 
I think July the 1st was the date he wanted all business done. I.e. when the pre-season training really starts.
He said somewhere that we have atleast 10 signings coming in and he wants atleast 5 in by start of pre season. Don't think he expects it to be near done because he chose Ireland as the pre season so players can get out to join them quickly and easily.

You don’t think he chose Ireland due to that’s where he’s done preseason for the last 6 years in management at mk and Charlton ?

I’m sorry but this is B*****s.









There’s no way the players are drinking Malibu.
 
I’m sure players will naturally drag their heels whether clubs like it or not. Frustrating but understandable from a players’ perspective. Even Ricardinho hasn’t formally agreed to a new contract yet, I’m sure it would have been reported if he had signed a new deal.

Yes but this is one of the reasons, in the announcement of Ireland for pre season,Robinson says it's easy to fly players out to join them. So this is obviously one of the reasons he chose Ireland, because he knows he won't complete all his deals in the next 5 week's.
 
Alex Gilliead set to leave Newcastle, can probably see him staying up north. Looked good against us for Carlisle a few years ago.
