The Transfer Rumour Thread

He has already played in the cup this season.

I would rather BBM stays true to his word and shows faith in Academy players (provided they respond) rather than shutting off the pathway. From what has happened so far under this manager I am sure he has confidence in Giles - based on what he sees on the training pitch - or else he would have pushed for a loan move and a replacement.

Giles also hasn't featured at all for the u21s which suggests he's seen as a first team player

Might be late for a few considering the average age of this board!

Have no name to share anyway, just that we're not finished and trying to get something over the line still.

Id rather another through the door than over the line but hopefully another in.

Just seen this.

I've just made my ovaltine, I was going to bed early because I am exhausted by this transfer window and thought City had finished for the night.

I have to make a fresh mug now.....

If I have two I'll be running ( alright ambling!) to the bathroom all night!

Depends if the line is in the building for me

.

Through the door, into the building and over the line. Now we just need to get them on the grass. But they’ll have to follow their protocols before that happens.

Do clubs still have to fax documentation to the Football League, to prove a transfer was completed before the deadline, or has is all gone digital?

Be a shame I think, still believe the squad is maybe a bit too thin in certain areas. I guess results will determine how we view it moving forward.

It's not happening.

Neither of the two LBs that we were trying for are going anywhere apparently. I'd be surprised if BBM went rogue this late on, so presumably just agent nonsense.

I’ll probably get some stick but I’d have gone for Jacob Mendy, who’s gone to Peterboro on loan.

Why? He’s nearly 29 and spent his entire career in non league apart from a season in league two and a handful of games in league one’

Night fella haha

McGuiness to Sheffield United

Honestly, I'm fine with the players bought in. We unloaded a lot of the crap, helped the youngsters gain their confidence and made key signings in the GK and CB position. Jury's still out on Kellyman, but he looks to have bags of potential.
