Whilst I was responding in my last post. I was considering that same thought.

Who are these merry men defending LJ? What's he got to do with anything? Sounds all abit bizarre that. North Korea.. pfft I don't even know what to say. Yes, we may have lost three on the spin. However, when we won a few on spin you hardly say anything. There's plenty of games left.. plenty to play for. Where was I personal.. Because I said your always negative? Come off it. You've basically said so yourself. I In your words I've got to look back to the summer for some positive perspective from you.

Think Murphy might rear his head down the line but not yet. The remainder of this season I'd imagine we'll see Williams as he's been good recently. With Twine I'm hoping he brings that spark we need.

What does that even mean? These are independent thinking fans who have their own opinions. Usually the majority show some sort of balance to their views. You repeat the same opinion. Usually negative. I challenge anyone to look through your posts to find anything slightly positive. When challenged, you revert to the same old. Stop getting personal, I'm going to mute you then accuse others of silencing you. It's ironic to say the least.

I wanted an option but give your head a wobble. We are 4 points away from the playoffs. It's unlikely but more possible with a new addition.

Nixon: 3/5 Athletic: 13/20 O'Rourke: 3/4 Piercy: 9/10 Taking bets

If no option to buy. I'm not sure it's worth it.. we'll see what happens.

Great bit of business. I can see him getting better and better and he's done well so far. You can tell he's bought right into the club already.

Manning basically just confirmed it was happening in the latest press conference but not fully completed so didn't want to comment further.

Haven't we also been told if we can bring forward deals that we'd look at in the summer we would. Wouldn't a loan to buy for Twine fit that exactly. BTW I didn't buy the prior 'pot is empty' statements previously. However, this deal is exactly as described recently for the business we'd do.

My tongue in cheek response to your arrogance you mean.. Basically "I know better than most fans so that's why I make everything negative to make a stand against the ownership"

Take a look at all my posts to see where I've defended JL. That old chestnut.. if that poster isn't negative every post they must be working with BS or idolise the Lansdowns.

What a hero! Just repeating the same thing over and over.

Trust me you don't just question. You seem to always spin the subject negatively.

How are people getting upset at spending 2.5 million on a player that had 20 goals/13 assists in League One was 4 mill a year ago and getting a move to the Prem. Has put up good stats in the Championship so far. I know with the benefit of hindsight we could of bought him cheaper but that applies to us and 40 other teams thar also missed the trick for a freebie. He's filling an obvious void of creativity that we've missed. Seems like good business if it comes off.

So it was 2.5 as Nixon originally reported at the end of December.

It's just everything topic turns to that.. Can't we just have two topics ie. Poor Nige - Discuss We hate JL & BT - Discuss Instead of them being discussed in every topic. There is more talk about them than actually what sort of player Twine is and how he'd compliment or not the team.

It doesn't have to be the elephant in every room surely. It's like a broken record.

Is there a topic in football chat where NP, JL or BT are not mentioned. Seems every topic turns to discussion about them three.

Is there much point in arguing about a fee on a potential transfer from hearsay at the moment. When first reported by Nixon he said 2.5, Piercy said Burnley want 5. If there is any truth in this I reckon it'll land somewhere between the two. Whether it happens and that's value for money only time will tell.

Firstly thanks Andi, been a great servant for the club and all the best. If this is true. We've played a blinder. Avoiding an appearance clause for a new contract, moving a player on (likely on higher wages even after the extension) early that would have been released in the summer. I'm not having a dig because he's been brilliant but imo he's on the decline so to get a small fee and reduce the option fee for TGH is perfect.

Exactly, no need for ego in the business. All this should/could/would of talk. Every club misses talent right under their noses. That being said he's not worth 5 million. Half of that maybe.

You're forgetting we've just got over our non parachute push back in 19/20 when we spent millions on Kalas, Massengo, Wells, Palmer, Dasilva, Bentley, Nagy ect. When Hull we're taken over they were in a very healthy position to go for it. If they don't go up they will have to watch their spending sometime like we did. I think we should be spending more by the way to compete but I'm not sure that represents us loaning a very expensive signing like this.

Surely thats an expensive loan nonetheless. Not sure I'd want us spending that money on a loan signing rather get a permanent. I guess its worth it if they go up but a risky one.
