From Bournemouth forum I wonder if we could interest Brizzle in a swap deal for Semenyo and Alex Scott in exchange for them taking Kelly back? I mean I'd love Kelly back! Kelly plus 20m, deal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posting on forums isn't a particularly difficult thing to do, Tom? Nor is OTIB the only forum in existence? Most office jobs run through Teams, other subjects that interest me use forums, the sports interactive one seems to be the same user interface as this and that's one I have navigated and posted on for nearly 15 years! I guess I just have some transferable skills. Maybe it's testament to the forum you've built that navigating it is so easy? Doesn't have to be a conspiracy Yawn. Time to fess up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if having had an injury already hamper his season, Antoine might be more inclined to seize the opportunity now. Either way, a failure to agree a deal now doesn't cause any major headaches. Why would we let a player discuss terms with a club before agreeing a price? Doesn’t make sense. It’s obviously not in the interests of the club to do that as it unsettles the player and undermines the negotiating position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is more likely to be with the players agent. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s naive to think that discussions regarding contracts don’t start until a bid has been accepted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree. Due to their Prem status, AFCB can readily afford a few £million more whereas we need to extract all that we can from the deal. This transfer window is a seller’s market; I trust the combination of RG, Phil Alexander and NP to extract the best possible deal for City. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshtonRobin21 Posted January 20, 2023 Report Share Posted January 20, 2023 IF a deal goes through, I really hope we have a deal agreed for a replacement that is ready for immediate sign off. Much like the Webster deal. Flint was sold, and Webster signed immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe I have a good idea who @Percy Pigis and I think it’s a user who left a few years ago but certainly not because of any misdemeanours. I also don’t think the current user has posted anything that ought to be considered controversial or confrontational and I think their new persona has been good to read and contributed well so far. #savePercy 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’d shine with them in the championship imo. All that while making enough money to have a great nee start to life in his 30s after it is all done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s obviously not in the interests of the club to do that as it unsettles the player and undermines the negotiating position. Quite the opposite. Much better to let a player you know is leaving sort out personal terms and then haggle over fee. If the buying club are talking seriously to the player then they know how much is fee is likely to be, so there won't be a large discrepancy between clubs. Stops clubs wasting their time haggling over a fee, thinking a deal is done only for it to then break down over personal terms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been over 5+ years if it is who I think it is so if they just dropped the admin team a message letting us know it would be fine. Most returning users have been allowed back on, as long as they've let us know. I’ll leave the door open for them to drop us a message. Ah right. I hadn’t realised they were previously banned. Still - I think they’ve been well-behaved so far and contributed well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
