No Gav Gunning tho.

Solid at left back on Saturday and will play at Leeds but the arrival of Denton on loan means he will only ever be back up, Kay is Captain and Smith one of if not the best centre back in the division so unless he gets sold or injuries hit Gav is likely to feature minimally now we have sorted a left back.

Hopefully for your sake JJ isn't your first choice option up front! (Although I dare say he will score past us as always happens!)

I'm honestly not. I've got a mate who organises stuff with the supporters club/ club. Charidee matches, legends matches ( that sort of shit) seemed adamant that Jermaine was off to Grimsby.
He's only gone and retired. Obviously Grimsby was a bridge too far for Jermaine. Godspeed sweet prince.

Approx £350 grand to us from Brentford if Andre gray joins Twatford as reported....:£

Saw that but not sure it is accurate, Gary Sweet stated unequivocally that our financial stake in Andre was done after Burnley stayed up and that was when he was being linked with Spurs etc so the question was being asked in the context of a possible transfer.

Not gonna lie I'm going to be pretty heartbroken if/when that deal is confirmed :(

We are looking at Paul Smyth. A forward at Linfield in Northern Ireland. He is, it says somewhere, a 19 year old forward/winger who knows where the goal is.

It seems Sheffield Utd are also watching. ...fat chance of us getting him then!

Now his manager won the treble in his first season in charge. I wonder if he fancies a a crack at tinpotdom?

Yeah I don't believe that these comments are anything other than us looking at driving the price up as much as possible before accepting. The signing of Cornick makes absolutely no sense if Vassell is staying, it's not feasible to keep five strikers who all want first team football happy. Vassell has zero real incentive to extend his deal knowing that he may well find himself as first alternative to Hylton/Collins when the former is fit again, and we can't afford to reject the kind of money being talked about when we could lose him for nothing in a year's time.

I'd be positively amazed if Vassell is still here on September 1st.

I believe him, Sweet has no reason to say that if he thinks they are likely to sell Vassell. He made no similar statements about McGeehan, or Gray back in the day.

Was going to say, I'm not sure how you'd expect to have a % of a % sell-on from someone who's joined Watford via Brentford and Burnley!

The logic behind that thinking comes from our clause being based off a % of the total value that Brentford receive for Gray - so Brentford were also on the hook to give us a % of any add ons they received for him as well as the % of the transfer fee they got from Burnley. Hence why we got money for Burnley getting promoted and then for them staying up. So basically any money Brentford got for Gray we were taking a chunk of too.

I'm not sure given that why we aren't seeing some money from this move, id assume it's because Brentford had a clause saying that any fee they got from Grays next sale wouldn't be included in our agreement. Gary Sweet has confirmed we aren't getting any money from it as well. Overall we've done pretty well out of that transfer and if any of the others we have had like that are structure similarly then we could have decent sums of money rolling in from them for a few years.

Yeah I'd take 'add-ons' to mean if Brentford's fee when they sold him included add-ons for things like appearances, not a future sell-on clause Brentford may benefit from, which isn't part of what you would call the 'fee' they recieved from Burnley. It would be to stop Luton getting shafted if Brentford were to get several million for him but only a couple hundred thousand paid up front.

Finally it looks like we're about to announce another signing, and a forward at that.

Brian Graham is expected to sign a 2 year deal from Hibs. Know nothing about him, his record isn't great though.

We are after a striker and a midfielder, one apperantly could be a club record transfer fee.

Not actually sure the most we have paid for a player, probably 150k back in the mid-late 90s.

It was apparently £150k but broken down into smaller chunks etc - someone said it was closer to £90k.

Hopper has turned us down, and tbh I'm relieved, we should be looking at better than him.

One thing is for sure, we urgently need another forward ASAP

Our local rag reckon we're getting Tony Andreu on loan from Norwich. Attacking mid with 13 goals in the Scottish Championship last season.

I think it was Lee Peacock from Carlisle I think Larkin also was similar but fell short because add ons was not met

I wonder for how long and at what percentage money is cascading back down to previous teams who had shrewd agents negotiating a sell on share of the transfer monies for previous players..... I wonder if there is a stand named after gray at Hinckley yet??

We are watching the Jordan Hugill transfer carefully as we have a 20% sell on (not back for a player we got free from Whitby Town and gave a chance too who only played a handful of games for us). PNE keep holding out for more so hopefully it gets done and we get a decent amount from it.
