Davefevs Posted August 17, 2022 Report Share Posted August 17, 2022 Rumours….Towler or Idehen. Towler would have connections with Simmo??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redpole Posted August 17, 2022 Report Share Posted August 17, 2022 I’ve heard that Idehen is going out on loan, so that would make sense with this link. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James54De Posted August 17, 2022 Report Share Posted August 17, 2022 Wonder why Idehen seems further away from the first team then he did towards the end of last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mendip City Posted August 17, 2022 Report Share Posted August 17, 2022 (edited) Would also add more sense/logic to Bamba possible coming in. Also perhaps one or both go to fund Bamba’s wages. Edited August 17, 2022 by Mendip City 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we (none of us know) how much DI and RT earn or what Bamba would want. What we do know is NP must raise some funds before bringing players. All I’m saying is this would be the sort of thing he has to do before we see incoming players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idehen and Towler salary combined will be less than £1500 per week. Bamba will want a lot more than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was put on hold as we were waiting for Kalas to return and didn’t want to leave us short. Even though Towler wasn’t next in line anyway, and we have plenty enough there. Seems odd to have held this up for that reason. Have I missed something about Idehen? What has he said/done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hunch would be that the 2 youngsters are probably on around the figure you quote each, but that’s a guess, I’m not ITK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could apply that to Danny Simpson who is rumoured to have signed for us on very low terms & my hunch is Andy King has done so this summer on very low money, too. Bamba was in talks with L2 Swindon over a contract last month, I can’t for a minute think they pay much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see the game littered with 35-38 year old millionaire footballers playing for next to nothing. Maybe we should offer him a tenner as it’s more than nothing!

The game doesn't have to be littered with players at that age playing for next to nothing to mean that it doesn't ever happen. You would think he would have asked or has been told a ballpark, or even actual figure before training with us, if the aim is to get a contract. Everyone knows we are skint, if Samba and his agent don't then I'd find that pretty odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 Brilliant move for him. Odd comments re his attitude. He fell out with Paul Hurst (who’s known to be a *****) because of false promises. Heard from a few people involved at the club that he’s an incredible character and loved by all. Could very much be involved in the first team ‘proper’ after this loan he’s that well regarded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was more to it than just the above, hence why he has completely fallen out of favour at Ashton Gate. Rightly or wrongly I have a feeling we may have seen the end of him in a City shirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 The fact that he's only there until January suggests that he hasn't completely burnt his bridges, whatever is presumed to have gone on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
