Transfer News Transfer targets summer 2019

[ubermeistervonmeat]

Previously, the club said they were looking at Mackie playing in the QPR game.

These persistent articles about the decent young players are merely preparatory acts to explain why we eventually don't get any further "wow" signings before the season starts

He comes from Northampton originally so might have his family still there? Mums cooking might be the decider? ?

We thought that about Jorge Grant and yet we were as appealing as a cup of cold sick.

 

[Scotchegg]

Yes.

We know that we need to bring in an experienced striker and centre back, but the development of Lopes and Jones is exactly what we should be doing as a club to help and they should be able to give options to the squad.

We never bid for Jorge Grant!

Nope, you can see it an absolute mile off. You will start to see Napa being bigged up even more over the next few days, guarantee it.

And of course, we should be bigging up our youngsters, just not at the expense of experience and adding pressurevto them..

Hornby trains well and can score from range. If he doesn't sign, then that's just the way it is.

It’s lies. All lies I tell you. I’m not sure any of it is even real. Is the club just a figment of Tiger’s imagination? Does Tiger even exist? Can anyone else see the little Scouse bloke talking about signing strikers, or is it just me?

Grant was mere internet talk. As mentioned earlier we didn’t bid for him

I have a parody account, wow!

Rather like yourself Kip?

That may well be true - no reason to doubt it - but the fact remains we have been overlooked by a number of others; both Garbutt and Sinclair spent time here last year but could not be persuaded to return - the never ending oh we have shown an interest is getting boring now - I would be happy to show an interest in the lovely Myleene Klass for example but she wouldn't give me a second thought - words are easy but there is no action behind it - fwiw my view is the problem is the elusive Tiger not KR - permanent hot air

yeah have to say Kip that really is an appalling analogy

But Sinclair and Garbutt are contracted, so maybe they did want to come back here, but their parent clubs thought otherwise?...

We matched (at the least) VVV Venlo's offer to Watford as confirmed by KR. That said I'm not surprised he picked the Dutch top flight over 3rd tier English football; as if successful he is more likely to get noticed by clubs higher up the league structure and in Europe. Wherever that was the right choice long term as under KR last season he was clearly improving, we'll wait to see.

Think he'll go to Sunderland. Train set club wouldn't be complete without a Hornby.

They both went to bigger better clubs, it’s no shame. I hope that we aren’t only going for players who are slightly out of our reach, however.

Don't read the Ox Mail article on Fabio Lopes then.

Interestingly, Robinson’s wife could be said to be ‘out of his league’. He’s obviously not short of confidence

We, along with Swindon, were keen on Grant and registered an interest but not keen enough to really push it. The Crowley brothers had been tracking him for the best part of two and a half years and in that time had been in constant contact with his ‘people’.

Their constant pursuing of him swayed towards Lincoln above others but it’s wide of the mark to suggest we were ever competing for his signature.
