The Transfer Rumour Thread

[Coyote]

We might need him because Tanner is out though. I think there's room for him here, he doesn't need to be loaned.

[RichardM]

I'd be happy with two more coming in, even if they're loans. The roster does look a little thin, maybe we're saving until January or something, and BBM needs a bit more time assessing where we need reinforcements? Or more likely, the board isn't fully backing him financially, but I think these results deserve backing.

It's a squad, not a roster. We aren't talking about ab American football team.

Anderlecht are reportedly considering a loan move for winger Tanatswa Nyakuhwa. Cardiff have ruled out a permanent sale and would prefer a move inside the EFL.

I've noticed a number of posters using the word 'gotten'. Nothing wrong insomuch as it's archaic English, but why try to pretend you're American.

Four new players coming in on Monday: left back, two-footed winger for both sides, Centre half, box-to-box midfielder.

The deals were done months ago, but they've been held back for dramatic effect.

What, like the appointment of Erol Bulut ?

Don’t tell us…Gareth Bale signing the cheques after the weekend takeover

Gabriel Osho having a medical today

Currently with Auxerre but had a loan spell with Rochdale when BBM was manager

Oh, you’re making what might be your first contribution to this thread all summer, am I reading too much into that?

I probably am.

Only 26 and you look at where he has played his football in the last three seasons and think how have we managed to get him?

Playing under Barry-Murphy at Rochdale must have helped

Yes, I’m sure you’re right - I’m thinking he might be named captain, but I’m not sure that would be a good idea because Rubin Colwill has reacted so well to the extra responsibility he’s been given.

Let's hope that's not the last time we ask that question over the next few days

Oooh tease

Ethan Horvath had a stormer for Wednesday tonight - buried Leeds in the pelanty shoot out after a heroic performance!

[Undercoverinwurzelland]

I see Osho's agent is Wasserman.

[Pedro de la Rosa]

Not sure if it's on here but pretty sure we'll be after a CM. Rumour that Eli King has done his ACL

That is very bad news if true - he was set up to compete with Wintle (and Mafico?) this season for the 6 shirt.

This piece was only from yesterday (so he must have picked up the injury very recently):

Robertson with an injury setback too - but Turnbull probably OK for the weekend.

Confirmed here, injured in training on Sunday

[Coyote]

Chambers is actually very good as a CDM also, much better than he is as a CB honestly.

Yes apparently made some good saves in the match too. Pleased for him.

Chambers to Wrexham making a reappearance on social media - I suppose it might be possible that we wouldn’t let him go until we had a replacement lined up?

[Taunton Blue Genie]

This ...we are not signing anything apart from a handshake deal from 2013 where FC copenhagen are allowed to sell us players that we can sell back at 75% less than what we paid(payed-for those in the US)

Speaking of Copenhagen, I'm stranded there at the moment after my 5 hour flight to Greenland (and all international flights in and out of Nuuk) have been cancelled indefinitely due to a security problem i.e. no checks when people landed.
I have taken the opportunity to book what seemed the very last ticket in the home area in this Champions League game against Basel - and for the princely and official sum of £25 (with no extras).
Unfortunately, accommodation costs are through the roof due to an Ed Sheeran concert, a walk of some description that has thousands of participants, the level of tourism and perhaps this game.
I'm not happy splashing out £200-£300 for a room so I'll kip at the airport.
The game starts in 55 mins
