“Left until now” and “completed” are two different things.
If we go for David Turnbull, I doubt today is the first time his name has been mentioned in the club’s offices. I’m sure him and many others were on the radar weeks ago.
If we announce him today, I also doubt everything was completed weeks ago and the announcement delayed for…. some arbitrary reason.

But hey, TWGL1 is in the know, he knows otherwise. Hes got sources in the game. And he goes around calling people "Melts". Dont want to mess around with people like that. :hehe:

Why did you bother contributing to the thread then, it’s funny , all to appear to do is target certain posters , why don’t you add something even if it’s something that may not fit the agenda , so we can have an adult conversation about it , I know it’s hard for you but you may find that people may start just taking you seriously.

Re: Lack of rumours - The rumour thread
I would imagine there will be deals done today that will be announced tomorrow for dramatic effect, maybe we've signed one of them?
Not ages ago though, just the deadline day hype.

I laughed because i find it funny. Dont be so precious sweetie. Its only a football forum with about 50 regular members. You like to dish it out but dont like it when the joke is on you.

Are you sure about that ..it doesn’t bother me in the slightest, but when you specifically target certain posters you will get called out.
It appears to me you can’t accept what I’ve said as fact simply because it doesn’t fit your agenda despite me explaining the facts numerous times previously. I’ve also said it’s no biggie and thought at the time it was an interesting perspective to the average football fan. Clearly I was wrong.
Perhaps you should stick to spreading rumours about former managers, or insulting the current regime?
If you have any other suggestions in regards of transfer deals from people within the professional league I’d be interested to hear them as perhaps what I was told ( in confidence ) is possibly more commonplace in the lower leagues, but it does and has happened.

Spare me the victim card, it doesn’t suit you.
And spare me the war and peace too. It’s boring. Doesn’t bother you but you have to keep trying to justify yourself over and over again and can’t take the tiniest of jokes from RJK. But no it doesn’t bother you in the slightest. Zzz.
Get over yourself.

Re: Lack of rumours - The rumour thread
BBC Wales say we want 5 players, and are respectful of EFL rules on FFP, whatever that means.
I guess the targets are Horvarth, Moore, Ilic, Turnbull and a mystery man? Probably a left back?

Moore and Ilic? I've been assuming our reported interest in Ilic meant that Moore wasn't coming here - we might be respectful of FFP rules, but I think we might struggle to stay within them if we're going to be bringing Ilic, Moore and Turnbull to the club.

Only way I could see that happening is if we’re fortunate enough to offload the likes of Robinson, Sawyers and Rinomhota, along with Campbell and Adam’s.
We would also need to send Runnersson and Bowler back to their respective clubs.
It would be an ideal transfer window, but somehow I just can’t see anyone else looking to sign any of them

I doubt anyone outside the decision makers really know, people get fed a snippet of information and sometimes it comes off, if it does they have a reliable source.
After Malky went I put a bit of info that someone had told me on here, I just said I wondered what OGS is doing?
There were a few doubters, some I think 🤔 had reliable sources of information and dismissed it
My post above is purely speculative,
I’ve posted on here several times that Bulut needs two transfer windows to get his squad together
As in any other business you can’t spend what you haven’t got, and it’s as important to clear out the deadwood and get them off the wage bill as it is in signing better players than we currently have in my view

Re: Lack of rumours - The rumour thread
If we were actually in for him then lille's interest gives hope that we may be getting better at identifying some of these players.
Buying younger players with potential is surely the only way for clubs like ours to keep with FFP.
Alongside a functioning academy of course but this seems a little way off.

Bowler is not deadwood, along with Ugbo Rambo and Dowdy they looked very good against Leicester and the other early games.

I don't think Bournemouth will sell him in this window, if Ilic goes to Lille, then they will try and fall back to Moore.

Bowler was talked about as an exciting prospect who will get the fans off their seats as he likes to run at defenders and beat them
If he is, he certainly hasn’t done much of that recently
In fact along with Robinson I would say he’s been one of the biggest disappointments this season

For a player under 30 with a record at any decent level you pay quite a bit more… real disappointment IMO and think there’s a chance he goes on to be a very good player. Not hard to understand why he goes to a club in and around the European places though.
Bowler for me is the definition of mercurial winger, on his day in a good team completely unplayable and one of the best running at players I’ve seen, but hard to argue with the fact he’s been shite for months now. If he had any consistency and a bit more work rate he’d undoubtably be playing for Forest though, you are never going to get a complete player on loan. Don’t think how Bulut wants to play helps him either mind.

I'm told Illic was never on for Cardiff City, but that they're trying to finalise a deal for an international striker from one of Europe's top leagues. No, soz I can't give name at this stage. B'mouth still playing hardball on Kieffer. Turnbull talks go on, watch for a winger too

The striker from a top European league could be kiefer and just a double bluff to boremuff playing hardball 😂😂

Think back to Leicester and the early games when teams couldn't double up on him and cut out his runs inside. Then there were Ramesy and O'Dowda to worry about, with Grant, Cowlill, and no Strikers they mark Bowler out and keep him quiet. You could stick any right winger there, they would struggle with this forward line.
The other three positions need changing, I would keep Bowler in the team before the other three.
