It would appear Villa came back in for Webster with a bid totalling £20M and we turned it down. :ohm: Bristol City turning down £20M for a player? Never thought I would see that!
I think Villa will get him eventually, sadly, but that's some bid to decline.
BTW, welcome to BS3, Daniel Bentley.
The money has gone crazy Craig.
One of the genuinely ITK posters on our forum is saying we've spent £7M on Kalas. I know he's bloody good but clubs like us don't spend £7M on a player. That's a whole wage bill for some clubs just 1 level down!
Absolute carnage financially in this division.
That's your opinion Craig but we don't want to sell him as he's our best player and under contract for a further 3 years. If anyone wants him, they'll have to make an offer that we can't turn down.
Given we've sold players for over £40M in the last 12 months, we can resist these figures...
Decent keeper is Frankie. He'll do okay for Millwall. Mad as a box of frogs though and can't kick for shit.
On our forum people are getting very excited as it looks like we've just landed Tomas Kalas. I would be ecstatic if that's true, great player.
A fair few more to come in yet Matt. Same for everyone I guess but we've returned to training today so I expect things to start to warm up now.
Tomas Kalas is the big one the fans want, he's superb!
No thanks although some numpty on our forum has suggested Rhodes! :ffs:
Rumours are Eddie Nketiah from Arsenal but I've no idea if that's true.
We went for Assombolonga in January but I would imagine he's way out of our range wages wise.
Excellent signing!
Bentley too by all accounts.
If we get Kalas and a decent front man, we would suddenly look pretty damn good! :)
I don't know too much about the lad from Colchester but, it appears, every man and his dog were after him which has to be a positive.
A community game against a local amateur side (do it every year to swell their coffers and is always a good day), all the usual local sides (Bath City, Yeovil, Cheltenham, Torquay etc) plus Tampa Bay Rowdies and Derby County on tour in the US, finishing with Crystal Palace at home, I think.
As bugger all is currently happening transfer wise at the moment, I was wondering if clubs had any youngsters on the verge of breaking into first team squads that are causing a genuine stir?
While our academy is really quite good, we've got a youngster called Antoine Semenyo who is genuinely...
I don't think KP realises just how good he can be. Whether the constant loans / change of clubs has affected him remains to be seen but, after a pre season under LJ, I would love to see him join BCFC IF he can be fitted into our pattern of play and is prepared to do the defensive stuff as well...
