Re: Boxing thread

Anyone have any thoughts on the the Ryan Garcia meltdowns/episodes on Twitter?

Either its seriously bad trolling or the guy needs some proper help.

My thoughts exactly. Worrying if that's the case.

Can you elaborate more on the 'He ain't here for the long run anyway' comment?

Re: January transfer window

Hodgson also just confirmed in his presser that we pulled the plug on Cornet deal to them; Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson: "I am very happy with the business, I'd like to congratulate the club for what they've done. We would have been interested in Maxwel Cornet. It was something that excited ...

Re: January transfer window

Some clubs could write similar statements about how we tried make business. Some "take it or leave it" offers during the last week. The way we've treated several players throughout the last few days is appalling and should have a clear effect on morale within the camp. Agents will have ta...

Re: January transfer window

Criminal, another occasion we could push on from a great league position for the second half of the season. We severely lack squad depth, it’s obvious to everyone. Another wasted opportunity? I still fancy us to pull a rabbit out of the hat if we are giving Benni the all clear to move, but could ju...

Re: January transfer window

On SSN just went to live reporter outside the OS. Said incomings unlikely, more likely outgoings (Benrahma & Fornals). So nothing new.

Re: January transfer window

Never said they didn't do a good job previously. This window though (so far barring last minute miracles) we've spent much of the time negotiating for... Jota - tax issues which people ITK were stating to be unresolvable right from the word go. Osman - Spent a while negotiating with a non approved ...

Re: January transfer window

Yes, they all write a player down on a card, shuffle the deck, and then ask Sulli to pick a card - no peeking. That's what Ex told me anyway. I imagine Steidtens job may have involved finding out the correct agent of a player. Sounds like we didn't do a lot of due diligence In reference to Jota? Ye...

Re: January transfer window

Based on the fact that Phillips was obviously a Moyes pick, and the fact we've spent much of the window faffing around with a player in Saudi Arabia with unresolvable tax issues, and wasted time negotiating with the wrong agent when it came to Osman, I'm giving Steidten and the recruitment team a 1...

Re: January transfer window

I think you're clutching here, to be honest. I mean, I hope you're right, but it's entirely believable that Fornals leaving was imminent but then someone pulled the plug on Jota/whoever and we've had to turn off his move. If it looks like a duck, and all that. No talk of deals being agreed and the ...

Re: January transfer window

Ex seems to think that it is "unlikely" that we bring anyone else in. Also that Cornet and Fornals will stay because of it. I think thats the most likely outcome now Lets not all hang on one person's word - yes he gets stuff right but not everything. Prime example being Fornals was off ye...
