Why not get £2m for Gallagher now?

Don't quit your day job.

Just loaded up my Journeyman save (currently at Real Murcia CF) cos you've got me curious. UEFA Europa League is: Minimum of 2 goalkeepers in squad Minimum of 4 players trained at club for 3 years between 15th and 21st birthdays (which is why the Phillips transfer was so galling) Minimum of 8 players trained at same nation for 3 years between 15th and 21st birthdays (hence the English player premium) Looks like the UEFA Champions League has the same rules.

I'd be delighted at that.

Sack everyone.

Why can Palace get a properly halved (quartered) shirt, but we can't!?

"Not that I'm biased, but I'm going to attribute two of Broughton's best signings to the previous manager whilst also using an insulting nickname to refer to him by". Good stuff.

Until proven otherwise I think you're right. Reeks of Rovers pushing him out the door for the first acceptable offer so they can pay their bills. A sliver will be reinvested into the playing squad.

Bonkers if we've not negotiated him as part of the deal - massive missed opportunity there.

So you don't have a season ticket in the Blackburn End? I'm calling Trading Standards. FYI he's the best player on the pitch most weeks and will absolutely thrive with better players to pass to. He's tailor made for the Premier League imo.

You should see how invasive College recruiting gets in American Football. People snoop on all sorts of social media accounts for a hint at where a player is going to commit to.

Ask him if any shifty looking characters are hanging around Brockhall with a 20something in a tracksuit in tow - you'd be our new ITK.

It's his first job as a DoF and he's fully qualified for the role - everyone has to start somewhere and this was his next logical progression. His recruitment has been good considering his budget - unless you're one of those nutters that doesn't attribute the Championship's (and FA Cup's) top goal scorer and the 2022/23 Player of the Season to him...

Hedges is lightning compared to his colleagues.

He definitely shagged your wife.

I'm chairing a meeting at work and I've now suddenly got no interest in anything with this news breaking. What a sad day for the club.

Stupid stance. If they're genuinely offering £2m we should snap their hands off.

He's often the best player on the pitch - he's a creator, he'll shine with better players to pass to.

To be fair Hodgson didn't know how to manage England internationals so you could be right. (I genuinely hate the man)

I guess we'll see whether my source is truthful or not. 🤣

'They' being Palace? I don't think he wants to go there.

The rumour around me in the Jack Walker is that he's probably staying until the summer.

You'd imagine if the Indian courts blocked the money then the Venkys would have to sell the club.

If Football Manager is anything to go by, no they can't. The actual money changing hands can be done on the 'never never' (i.e. we'll pay you £25m, but it'll be £500k every 6 months until the amount is reached"), but the full value of the transfer goes on that current transfer window's books. Chelsea et al won't be short of the cash to buy Wharton, but like Arsenal with the Raya loan (with a mandatory option to buy in the next transfer window) they simply might legally be hamstrung.

I think you'll see more of that formation this season with our set piece frailties. JDT will want 3 CBs on the pitch as much as possible. Phillips and / or O'Riordan will be playing a lot. I assume they'll play JRC, Brittain and the loaned at WB.
