The Transfer Rumour Thread

[City123]

I think that's right, it wsn't the plan at the start of the season.

But Giles has been training with the First Team (more than most of the u21s on the evidence of club training clips) and I am growing in confidence that BBM and his coaches can improve players quickly if they are receptive.

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

The window closes at 7pm. No one will have to stay up late.

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

You’re such a tease … iPad on, TV on, phone on …. I’m watching!

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

[Hilts]

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

[The Lone Gunman]

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.

[The Bloop]

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?

I’m told that’s it for @CardiffCityFC. Been an outstanding window
1) Got rid of host of senior players, essential to flip dressing room & give young guns their head. I’d hv kept Ramsey, the only one.
2) Kept hold of ALL their young talent, despite interest
3) Three fab signings

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.

I’d love it, I’d bloody love it if welshlad it right and Abbandonato is wrong.

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.

was 1 of the left backs Marcell Washington ccfcwelshlad ?

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

[Mr Ducie]

McGuiness to Sheffield United

[Coyote]

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.

McGuiness to Sheffield United

don't suppose we had a sell on fee?
