Grant the Lincoln lad we were clickbaity linked with has gone Peterborough. Typically shrewd bit of business there. |
I absolutely love the term 'shrewd' when it comes to transfers. You barely hear it anymore except in that context, which is a shame. I always imagained Peter Shreeves to be shrewd. Because of his name sounding a bit like shrewd. But anyway, 'shrewd bit of business' always conjures a manager stroking his jutted chin, eyes narrowed, as he makes a bid no one else would make, for a cost less than perhaps a player is worth, then nodding gently, smiling a little to himself when the bid is accepted.
Rules of shrewd signings:
- Must never be expensive.
- Signed either from a smaller club or from a club that doesn't properly appreciate his skills, which the shrewd manager has spotted.
Who was our last shrewd signing? Chrissy Willock I guess. |  |

More shrewd biz from pboro just signed Jack Marriot on a free from Derby.
Peterborough dont sell strikers for peanuts. went to Derby undisclosed a couple of years ago.
I wonder how much they'll sell him for next time | |

Rumoured to be in region of £3m with add ons but would imagine non were paid. Ten goals in 79 appearances and none in 12 for Wednesday. Lucky to resign at Peterboro. |  | | |

Gabriel Sutton on the case finding him hard to pin down, but does make the reasonable argument that Barnsley's squad aren't limited to Ismaelball.
They're total unknowns right now but I wouldn't rule out them coming out of this positively all the same. Fair few clubs around on the slide and Schopp does come off quite engagingly in his interview. |
Blimey, seems rsonist can't resist talking Schopp again. |  | | |

Josh McPake gone on season long loan from Rangers, the Glasgow ones, to Morecambe. QPR were allegedly interested,. Which I think is a load of bollox.
We're also supposed to be interested in Windass from Wednesday. Chairman values him at £5m. Which is also bollox. Dont know if we are seriously interested but we wont be paying that or anything like. |  |

I saw the Windass rumours this morning. If true, Wed's £5m valuation is way over the top. The Warburton connection while at Rangers is possibly why he's now linked to QPR. I can't see it happening although I think he'd do well with us as a second striker. | | | |

I'm assuming it will be for an undisclosed fee at least recouping the 50k we allegedly spent! |  | | |

We could definitely double his wages if he doesn't mind them staying unpaid...
Oddly persistent rumour for what is hopefully a load of nonsense cobblers. Not much of a fan of his even if he were free. | | | |

Fulham interested in BOS apparently.....or he wants out and has asked his agent to get him a move [Post edited 4 Jul 2021 20:15]

Kelly to Motherwell.
Jordan Archer, ex Millwall and Boro, in as 2nd choice to Seny.
Warbs keen on Windass. But unlikely at £5m. Even if we could double his wages. On the basis of 2 x not getting paid is not going to break wage structure. | |

Not thrilled by this. Archer is a poor goalkeeper and Seny's potential AFCON situation means it's not simnply a case of bench fodder - he's going to be playing in a busy chunk of this season. |  | | |

Barnes seems to be seen as a prospect to develop (getting games out on loan) rather than a backup to keep around like Archer will be. According to WLS our keeper coach Gavin Ward was "largely responsible" for his signing.
I didn't realise Archer had started really well at Wall originally - won POTY in his first season there when they were in League One - before losing his way/blundering into oblivion. Would be known to Chris and Les as a former Spurs kid before that.
It's fine, experienced at this level, no expectations to tread on either Seny or Walsh's toes. | | | |
| Summer transfer rumours thread on 13:23 - Jul 5 with 2246 views | Maggsinho |
Third choice keeper to spend his career with us out on loan or on the bench should Seny get injured. |  | | |
| Summer transfer rumours thread on 13:28 - Jul 5 with 2209 views | rsonist |
Oh yeah I forgot about the AFCON thing. Well if Archer is really that bad hopefully it'll be spotted in training and Walsh will be recalled for then.
Edit - although now I think about the training videos I've seen and from what little of Walsh there's been he hasn't looked remotely first-team ready. Not to be amazingly harsh or anything!
Kind of liked the idea of Lonergan's experience in the squad personally - well-liked at Liverpool and would have maybe had something to teach the kids. [Post edited 5 Jul 2021 13:31]

hmm...what happens if Seny gets injured? We have gone from having 3 average to good senior keepers to 1. | | | |
| Summer transfer rumours thread on 13:36 - Jul 5 with 2154 views | rsonist |
Three good senior keepers would go well those three specialist reserve centre-backs we desperately need, it's true. | | | |

If we manage to get the JoJo deal through as well as Austin and the players already signed. I’ll be able to deal with that. |  |
