What doubts? Lots of clubs were going to be bidding this summer. He was sold on the cheap, you already conceded the point, and Rutter proves that. We’ll leave it there.

It’s not the end of the world if we replace him. We’ve always found a replacement for the goal scorers we’ve sold in the last few years. But we have to spend money now. We won’t get lucky every time.

What’s relevant is that they were prepared to pay it. Seems like the price ceiling for Championship players is a lot higher than the Happy Clappers had us believe.

Exactly, CP got a bargain, he was sold on the cheap.

They’ve sold a Championship player for £40m, it’s irrelevant where he’s played before.

You’ve not explained why it’s relevant. Leeds, a championship club, have sold a player for £40m to the Prem. The argument from the Happy Clappers was we got the best deal possible for Wharton cos he was a Championship player.

Not really relevant.

Jackson saying Posh sell on was 10%

£40m for Rutter £18m for Wharton. ‘yeah but £18m is the best you can get for a Championship player’🥹

It’s a bit funny they’ve had to pay £1m more, the tight bumpkin fucks.

I believe you, I was just trying to teach rude boy some manners!

please

Not saying this isn’t true, but why would NY Rovers know? Who are they anyway?

It’s amazing what seeing Sammie scoring goals again for Rovers can do to transfer negotiations. Ipswich clearly blinked first. Hopefully we’ve got some quality players lined up.

As it should be. Priorities.

Those certainly look like tattooed arms. Did you follow him to Ipswich?

Farewell Sammy. The king is dead, long live the Yuki-ng

That would explain a lot

If I’m not we can all collectively panic on the Sept 1st! But until then we shall remain stoic like strong northern men and women should😉

I think you might be reading too much into it. He’s not in charge of transfers but he’s making very clear in that statement we are a few players short of what he wants. He then states the obvious that if he doesn’t get them then he and the squad will just have to crack on.

JE is just showing faith in the players he has. He can’t exactly say ‘we’re fucked if we don’t sign anyone’, even if he thinks it. Still 2 weeks of the window left. I’m sure there will be more incomings

If neither side are willing to compromise then I’m not sure it really matters what league the buying club is from.

He’s just reporting what Nixon reported a week ago.

An accurate representation of a 23 year old man from Burnley.

He’s at Gateshead now. He’s had a decent career in the lower leagues and now the Conference.
