journal this morning said our bid had been rejected. is this a substantial second bid?

 

Apparently so. We put a bid in on Wednesday night, it was rejected and we spoke to them again last night.

i'm genuinely excited by this news. my complete apathy towards this transfer window is dissipating as we speak.

 

if this goes through, you could almost claim that ashley has proved to be a competent chairman at championship level, or perhaps he just realises that we're fortunate to be top of the pile having played mostly crap all season, that if we don't invest, we could still easily fail to go up and that splashing a little cash now will get him a lot more money in the summer if it results in promotion.

 

I hate to say it but a surprisingly brisk incoming list makes me think an outgoing is more possible.

Ashleys not our chairman. Dekka is.

 

IF this goes through along with the other signings weve made i would consider this to be a sucessful transfer window.

Officially Dekka is, but we know he's a puppet.

Interesting how this deal has been done. These cunts think we are stupid. There are a lot of clubs interested in Moses, I believe he'd choose us over all of them, as we're the best prospect of playing in front of 45000+ crowds and him getting his game every week. He goes to Man City he'll end up starting 6 games a season. However, the administrators will have told us the price, we've low balled it, and I will be far from surprised when the "couldn't reach an agreement" statement is released. There was no mention of the Routledge deal in the papers, it was all very hush hush, which is the way to conduct a deal. With this one though shouting from the roof tops about the boy, it reaks of a propaganda exercise to make us appear ambitious. I'm very sceptical.

Which just 'feels' weird. I mean Ashley and Llambias have repeatedly shown how useless they are but should we capture Moses, together with the other transfers and current state/position of the team could it be they've turned a corner? I'm not saying they're anywhere near redeeming themselves but could it be a step in the right direction... then again as DG said it's probably just because they know we'll be worth more to sell in the Prem.

I'm guessing that it depends on the agents and clubs involved.

 

QPR are trying to reduce the bill, were probably happy with the bid, as was Routledge, and maybe the agent just pushed it through.

 

With the Moses bid, you're dealing with extra parties(the admin's), and Palace want a bidding war to start, so they're shouting from the rooftops about the boy wonder being up for sale. The agent has already been mentioned in the Journal, so this is going to be a fairly public deal.

 

Also read this morning, that we had signed Williamson on a 1day loan so he could play against Palace. That'll be why .com spotted the fact it wasn't mentioned as a perm. deal.

 

Nicely done by ourselves(!)

[Park Life 71]

I hope we get Moses.

[Nyff 0]

When can we start with the Moses jokes/puns?

 

Mark Douglas of the Journal thinks a bid of over 2M should get him, and supposedly we are in the pole position for him despite what is agent is saying here:

The administrators, fine. Why are we shouting our mouths off about it?? I'll be surprised if he's at Gallowgate by the end of the window.

Officially he's MD, isn't he?

[donaldstott 0]

Apparently he's waiting for a call from Real Madrid.

If we get this kid I'll be staggered, Stevie's evaluation looks about right. We might of course stand aside and let Liverpool sign him.

naivety? placating the fans? placating the local journalists?

Fulham, west ham and wigan join race....SSN

[Barney 0]

Agent is clearly a tit :

 

“I have always thought that West Brom is the kind of club where this kid should be.

 

But it is clear that the player would rather go to Real Madrid. I hope they call us soon.'

 

Moses has also indicated that a move to a Premier League top-four side would be ideal for him

[Martin 0]

West Ham, Wigan and Fulham interested SSN.

 

Probably go to Fulham IMO.

[The Fish 10963]

Never mind eh.

 

Can't see him playing 1st team for Fulham, West Ham ate going to swap leagues with us... But Wigan are a real threat to this deal.

[khay 10]

Fulham would be good for him and he would not have to move far if at all.

[Guest Stevie]

Was clear as day what was going on from the Newcastle side of things, amazed so many people fell for it

I think many were just hopeful, rather than duped. Most seemed to be saying "IF" rather than when

Stefano Okaka is undergoing a medical ahead of a loan switch to Fulham from Roma, which rules them out you would imagine.
