Too much detail to be credible
If we spoke to him then we must have agreed a fee with Tranmere for him.

How do you know it’s bullshit, who are you to say????
Do you really believe everything that anyone says to you?If some old trunk tramp said we were in for Salah would you believe him?
How about using some common sense to think if your opening post is likely to be true or not.

If we can afford to bring him in then we can afford to pay him far more than Tranmere are. That's why it's horseshit, and I'm amazed that anyone would be so gullible to think otherwise.

How about keeping an open mind, think it’s common knowledge we haven’t got any money together with the early season shambles on player signings, ever thought of putting 2 and 2 together?????

Why’s that? We enquired about him, he was interested but the offer wasn’t very good AKA McGuire, remember that one??? - Surely if we were that flush we’d have 2 strikers in the building now instead of this dicking about?
Mistake straight away,you don’t know what money we have or haven’t got.i will stick to common sense and you can keep getting things wrong.
Isn't the Maguire example irrelevant as that was under Eales?

I think the writing is on the wall, hope I’m proved wrong though, think before you put people down........
Sorry, so where's the money come from for us to buy him then?

Norwood will cost a few quid, but according to your post he laughed at the deal we offered him and he'd be better off staying at Tranmere. You then say that this may not be 100% true. Well, I'd suggest that it is entirely made up! Either by you to shitstir or you've shared it without a seconds thought of how stupid this is.
There is nothing wrong with questioning our transfer activity or raising concerns about our finances, but why make up shite to make a point?

That’s just it, we can’t afford him apparently
If anything I'd say it's a staple fixture.

So we spoke to player and made him an offer before finding out how much he would cost ?

Why am I stiring up rubbish, I was told this by a friend who knows somebody with close ties to the club, it may or may not be true just saying what I heard, not sure why I’m getting so much grieve here, will be happy if it’s not true and prefer that tbh - I think a lot of people on this forum think everything’s rosey at OUFC, I’m hearing otherwise, anyway time will certainly tell won’t it...
We can't talk to and offer terms to players under contract unless the selling club gives us permission, which would require us to match their asking price.
If people are going to make stuff up, please put a bit of thought and effort into it.

I do not know ‘word for word’ how the conversation went.

I’m not saying that there is any substance in this rumour, but despite that being the official line I think it’s quite common for an agent to have already spoken to a club or manager to broadly outline whether their client is interested and what he might demand in wages.

That skint we have managed to buy a player from Northern Ireland?
That skint that Tiger has now paid fees for a total of 5 players?
It’s a total myth that the club is skint. Long term finances has never been the issue for Tiger. Short term cash flow has been difficult but still manageable.
Also knowing what Norwood is earning at Tranmere and knowing what we pay our players on average then I’d say it’s 100% bullshit that Norwood would earn more at Tranmere than he would here.
