Stickied Transfer Rumours & Confirmed Deals Thread 2023/24

[SMH]

Surprised we didn't ask about James, although he's a similar player to Morsy so I'd imagine he'll fit much better at Barnsley as they needed a replacement for him. Adam Le Fondre has been talking to Rotherham, he wants to go somewhere and play every week.

 

[Craig]

Expect to bring Josh Brownhill in before the window shuts. LJ on his way out and he must have come to the realisation that Bristol City was a poor career choice.

Most people do.

Gluck with that mate. if what I was told was correct (usually is) about brownhill and what he was offered at Bristol compared to what we offered him you won't come close, and tbh he isn't a player worth your lot breaking the bank for. They'll probably want a crazy fee for the kiddy as well.

Most people do.

they offer mighty fine money though geeza, bailey right took a sideways move to them when he could've gone into bigger and better things but he joined them because they're offering fucking silly money!

Stevie May to Barnsley on loan is a weird rumour.

Not sure why we would loan to a direct rival in the league or why Barnsley would gamble on someone who has been out injured for 14 months.

I do think there is a handy player in there if this injury hasn't cabbaged him, i'd like to see him bedded into our team this season rather than sent out on loan.

 

[joethegill]

Hourihane confirmed at Villa

 

[MagpieBee]

Jozefzoon confirmed by PSV, dependent on a medical which should happen today.

 

[SF_]

Grayson has said the biggest part of this window has been turning down offers for first team players.

Good to know we're putting big valuations on our players.

Still looking at potential incomings, no update on the Keane situation.

Rejected an improved bid for hugill from ipswich

 

[JJH]

Barnsley after Mowatt and Brownhill rumour won't go away. They'd probably get the very best out of both of them and sell them for big money in years to come if their recent work with young players is anything to go by.

 

[PNE Mynx]

1.5million + addons i was told for Hugill this bid.

get fucked Ipswich, why would we sell players to you?

nbf but if brentford, Bristol c and other clubs down the bottom are willing to hold out for 15million for their forwards then we shall have 10m MIN for Hugill.

£2m bid according to HITC who were on the money last time.

You've changed your tune!

Not a chance are HITC a good source, like O'Rourke, they get fed crap by agents, re-hash bollocks they've read off forums and try to spread enough shite that occasionally some of the rumours come to fruition.

This summer HITC have said Simon Grayson was set to quit because of our budget, both old firm clubs were after Josh Brownhill, linked Bailey Wright to China, said we're one of the clubs chasing some striker from Dundee, Scunthorpe's goalkeeper, O'Dowda from Oxford, Anthony Stokes (along with 8 other clubs!), some Blackpool youth player....

Wolves, QPR and Blackburn supposedly wanted Cunningham according to them in April as well.

Absolute chancers.

 

[PNE Mynx]

£2m bid according to HITC who were on the money last time.

yeah it would potentially rise to 2million, told them to double it which would still be underselling him in the market of today.

Well yeah, because they've got things right since I posted that.

Pretty creepy how you have my old posts to hand within a minute of me posting.

I searched "SF_ HITC" as I remember having this exact conversation with you.

75% of the stuff on there is still agent spiel and guesswork but seemingly they do have some contacts for stuff like this.

Wouldn't pay attention to their transfer rumours at all.

They were horrendous with us originally but over the last 12 months or so they're the only media outlet who get things right more often than not, broke the news of Cotterill's sacking and many other transfer dealings.

Will just depend on certain relationships with local reporters I imagine, for some clubs they won't have the faintest idea what's going on.

imo you should take it seriously when they link just us or another club with a player, not when they say 'Preston, Blackburn, Burnley and half of the north are interested in x'

 

[El Guapo]

Paul Caddis has had his contract cancelled by mutual consent.

Wonder if any bottom half Championship clubs will show interest...

Grayson has mentioned maybe adding another right back, is he shit?

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Mowatt wanted by Barnsley, out of contract in the summer....fuck that, snap him up Carlos.

I'd be surprised if Mowatt went to Barnsley, that would be a great signing for them. Wouldn't be surprised if Burnley, or someone like that, took a punt on him.

 

[El Guapo]

When he's fully fit he is a decent player, likes to get forward and overlap but struggles defending against pacey/tricky wingers. He turned up overweight for pre-season and has been overlooked since.

Bit of a wind-up merchant, even had the placid Reading supporters raging last season.

I like a good wind up merchant, not being able to defend and being a fat c*** doesn't sell him to me though.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Hourihane done. We're now on the hunt for a striker with Akpom strong(ish)ly linked. Rhodes still linked, but we refuse to cough up £12million for him.

 

[joethegill]

Trying to work out Tony Xia's Twitter clues, it would seem there are 3 more possible incomings, but chances are they'll only go for one of them. Also look like 2 possible outgoings before the end of the window, could be 2 of several.

The best we've managed to come up with is... One of three in, and 2 out, if the 2 go out, one more in.

Nuttier than squirrel shit that bloke

And that's why we love him.
