  1. I do wonder if Kortrijk are part of some weird shit owners pact with us, maybe there's just a WhatsApp group and they tell us players we can have. They're owned by Vincent Tan who's obviously a cunt, managed to relegate not 1 but 2 teams he owns in a year with Cardiff going down too. He's pretty despised in Belgium from what I gather, predominantly because he is never around, presume he has a Pasha type 'running things' for them......

    No first team players since December 2023.

    The club and it's apologists will no doubt count Riberio and Forshaw though.

    I thought as much. Ribeiro I presume already had a deal agreed prior to his initial signing if both parties agreed to it. Forshaw would probably have signed anything we waved under his nose as he wouldn't have any other offers.

    So we either have nobody at the club capable of structuring a contract renewal, or we simply do not want to - i fail to see how it can't be 1 of these 2 scenarios and either is equally as pathetic for a championship club, well any pro football club really.

    I can't blame Brittain for wanting out because at 27 years old this is his last meaty contract before be passes 30 and starts getting offered shorter less lucrative deals. He could have gone about it better though, refusing to play is a cunts trick. Suppose he'll have seen it worked for Szmodics though so he's now expecting the same.Β

  3. Seems to be am obvious strategy with the transfers this summer of targeting players from relegated teams, unless its pure coincidence of course.

    They really ought to change the filters on the scouting software a bit now though and get a striker and centre half in 🀞

    You'd expect we get probably 2 or 3 loan players in, so no sure how many, if any, more permanent signings we'll make....

    Jackson rams it down our throat with an exclusive transfer story πŸ˜‚

    But a sub right back again from a Belgian relegated side.

    He won't even have been there back end of the season as he was at St Mirren, not saying that makes him a better signing in any way like. Must have been a decent pedigree playing for Arsenal's youth but seems to have gone backwards. So as back up maybe decent enough, as a Brittain replacement absolutely notΒ

    Yeah, just read that he played 14 games for Cardiff last season after joining them on loan in January. Can't say I remember him. Anyone recollect anything memorable about his time there other than being in a relegated team?

    I don’t remember him at all, worryingly his highest rating in a match for Cardiff came against us at Ewood too πŸ˜‚

    norwich splashing out 7 million for a danish centre forward,can only deduce they are selling sargeant to fund that outlay,bit of a risk spending that much on an unproven player

    He's not really unproven playing at the level he has for Brondby and he's just made his debut for the national team, I'd be made up if we took a punt on him

  7. Logically how hard can it really be to finalise a contract with a player? I mean seriously?Β

    Make an offer, player rejects it and says what he wants, make a counter offer meeting him half way, maybe a bit more.Β

    I mean no disrespect to him it’s Callum Brittain, it’s not like negotiating with someone like Salah.Β

    But we’ve been through this really shit pantomime countless times now an 9 times out of 10 it doesn’t end well for us. The only time we’ve had any competence at all was when GB was here, he had his critics but had a much better idea when it came to contracts than anyone else under this regime.Β
