    I understand the full offer was £5m plus free car washes for a year OR no £5m but unlimited Greggs pasties for Deeney for a year.

    That lad Aden Flint looked good tonight for Bristol City, maybe we should consider putting in a bid for him to bolster our CB stock?

    Bizarrely and seemingly by accident I've seen him play a few times this season and always looks very dominant. Would be a good signing depending on his age.

    He's 28, 29 in Summer.

    Outstanding? Reign it in a bit! He was good, no better.

    Gonna book to get my head checked out - because I don’t think Mawson is worth £25m. Will report back with results.

    Agree he’s not worth £25m but I also don’t believe that would be the fee we ended up paying, current market along with young and English does boost his fee however. But surely if we’re siging an improvement on what we have then paying a bit over the odds isn’t a bad thing

    Very good player, but Brizzle wouldn't let him go in the middle of their promotion campaign, and he wouldn't want to come. Maybe in the summer if they don't go up.

    I'm going to buck the trend and say, in this market, Mawson would be worth 25mil if his contract wasn't expiring. He's a very good young homegrown defender, who has a decent scoring record from set pieces. Not with 18 months left on his contract however.

    I'd probably prefer Ben Gibson though, who seems a bit more inspirational/ determined, with similar defensive attributes.

    They would if the price was right. He was very close to joining Birmingham City in the summer for £3m so I'd say we could afford him and he would come if he was going to go there.

    The undeniable truth First Team Captain

    Based on who their manager was at the time, I expect 60% of all footballers were close to joining them in the summer.

    Yes, but last summer they saw themselves - and Flint saw them - as a lower Champ team going nowhere. He was keen on a move. Now it's different - Brizzle is a lovely place to live, their stadium has been improved and he might regard their prospects as as good as Watford's.

    Confirmed
    Edit: as as the signing most fans would like to see this Jan according to a misleadingly titled article on the Mercury site.

    Looks like he's off to Fulham SSN seems to suggest it's edging closer ... I think he's just the sort of player we need -I think we may regret not being in for him

    Fulham, on paper, seem to be having a very good window .... they must be ignoring FFP rules

    I think he is the modern day Mick McCarthy (player) just boots the ball as hard as he can and let's a few goal in when he try's to be too clever!

    For £25m, I’d want better.

    And fitter. Isn't he still recovering from an operation?
     
  23. You are right to say there may be an element of regret, but as I've still not started regretting Pickford for £30m yet, this guy, for £25m, is way down the regret schedule. Somewhere above Sliva turning out to be a ******, but below not buying the 2014/15 replica away kit.

    He's young, but at the moment he's no better than say Cathcart.

    It's the excitement of being back in the biggest League in the universe ever.

    No freebie away shirts means every single supporter has shelled out £50 on at least 4 brand new spanking tops. 2x home & 2x away - 1 of each to wear and to keep for prosperity.

    Then 'Diddy' David Hamilton has probably waived his fee for being the team announcer, Hugh Grant finally pays up his season ticket tab and Richard Osman just hands over a wad of Endemol cash in return for a new game show he's got on the boil called 'The Joka; He'll 'effin' Kill Yer'.

    They've also sold crown jewell George Williams to Forest Green Rovers so that'll help swell the coffers.

    Relegated by September.

    Is ‘Diddy’ not ‘Deaddy’ by now, then?

    Other countries must laugh at us. £75m on the continent is a value placed on world class footballers. £75m in this country buys you a centre half who's claim to fame is a massive forehead
