    We're spending 15m on Harry Wilson so money will be tight from now on

    Decent player and we’re getting him for decent money

    Feel a hell of a lot better about this signing than I ever did for Gary Madine or Isaac Vassell

    If Harry Wilson signs for us permanently I'll personally clean the entire outside of the stadium with a sponge before the first game we're allowed back at

    For the price we're apparently paying, this has to be good business, but I hope supporters don't start expecting twenty goals from him next season.

    He's promised us 30 goals a season if we add in Bale and Ramsey

    Was a joke referring to this thread (which is a joke in itself). I'll join you on the cleaning project, we'll need to sack the cleaners to pay for it.

    Wigan and Wales play good (or at least better) football than we do. We might play better football as it could stick with him and we can actually play off him. Provided we play the ball into him, he is more likely to come down with the ball and we might be able to play. It bounces off Glatzel and Paterson.

    If he's half as good as the previous Moore (Graham sold to Chelsea and then Manchester Utd) I will be very happy. If he replicates his form playing for Wakes he will be a good signing.

    Re: Kieffer on his way

    This is an interesting piece in TeesideLive about the EFL transfer market post lockdown, the competition for Kieffer Moore's signature and the attitude to his wage demands, and the need for clubs to reduce costs - especially wage costs:

    https://www.gazettelive.co.uk/sport/...build-18755237

    The focus is on Middlesborough - but the examples are across the leagues.

    Clubs have no money. And the players - and their agents - suddenly have to face that stark truth.

    The traditional clubs' recruitment tool of sticking another bundle of fifties on the table is no longer an option.

    And the practice of agreeing a deal then inviting other suitors to top it has been badly dented too.

    Players are starting to feel the squeeze. Suddenly it is a buyers market. And the buyers are skint.

    Take Kieffer Moore. Four clubs were reported to have had bids accepted by Wigan's administrators but that didn't spark the usual wages arms race. Far from it. It has underlined the new reality.

    Cardiff - said to be in pole position last week - are assessing how they go about transfer business and were not sure the sums add up. Stoke were sure they didn't and after hearing his ball-park demands, they walked away.

    Boro were interested - he was 'on the list but not a the top of it' - and think they can get more bang for their buck elsewhere so were in no rush.

    Cardiff are said to be back in the box seat now and looking to resume talks. But on their terms not his.

    Football talk for "feck, we've missed out on our main target"

    I think for the money it's a good deal.

    Most of the recent news reports are saying the fee is under £2m (apparently we bid £2.5m in January) with the local QPR online rag quoting £1.85m.

    I agree and wonder if we will see transfer amounts reduce over the next 12 months.
    At present clubs just cannot go around throwing millions

    He has to be better than Madine, Ward and Bogle.
