Baby Diaz is due in January. I would think he will want a big fat contract from somewhere prior to this window ending and being settled somewhere on good money before the arrival in Jan. It won't be here.

As predicted 😁

Same as us.

Think Sharpe said it. Doesn't want to do any interviews until after the transfer window.

Anywhere else it would be. Venkys arent bothered though. Id rather keep his quality for a year and let him go for nothing rather than selling him for £15m and not replacing him.

I'll predict that it isn't us.

He's slower than Pickering.

Anyone received there season tickets today? For some reason they have sent mine but not my sons, why wouldn't they just put them in the same envelope?

Not sure why we are changing the narrative that Mowbray was sacked. It's like saying Rothwell, Lenihan and Nyambe were all sacked.

Not a criticism. I just think he will tell you everything you want to hear and you will come away satisfied with it. He's done the same to numerous others, some on here and one or two i know personally. Not to be trusted at all is my opinion.

Of course they should be bothered. The last 12 years tells me they aren't though. Money clearly isn't an issue to them, so from the teams point of view i would rather keep Diaz than sell him because that money won't go back into the side, as been seen numerous times before.

I have a feeling you will come out of this meeting as a huge Steve Waggott fan.

There are 3 left?

I've give up caring whether Diaz is sold or not to be honest. If he is, none of it will be reinvested into the first team as it never is, and second venkys will just plug the gap themselves anyway. They clearly aren't bothered about players walking away for nothing as this summer has shown.

Not really. It will put you above non members in the away tickets que though, but as said earlier in the thread its pretty rare that they dont go to general sale anyway. Think it was only Luton last season that didn't go to general sale.

Yeah them ts and cs are well out of date. Take no notice of them.

When the 1875 was introduced a few years ago you could get money off all home games. Now it's just the 4 category A games. If you are going to all 4 of them you would save a fiver overall. And like you say as a ST holder, there isn't really a benefit apart from being at the front of the que for a burnley ticket, which i'm guessing would go past that stage anyway. Does seem a bit pointless really.

Surely nobody is paying £4m for Ben Davies. Still, if there is interest elsewhere then we wont stand a chance with our wage budget.

None i would say.

If BBD is sold i would be amazed if any of it was available to buy Birmancevic. That sort of thing just doesn't happen here.

I imagine a permanent move would rule us out.

Not like you to go on super club defensive mode Jbiz.

Sharpe hinting that he will play more of a "second 11" tonight with an eye on Saturdays fixture against Celtic being our "marquee" freindly.

Also i just don't understand the clamor to sell Diaz so we can spend the money on "2 or 3 players" At any other normal club i would completely agree that would be the way to go, but that has never happened under venkys ownership, and certainly won't happen if he was to be sold. That money would just go into the venkys black hole. To be honest we would be better off keeping him with the squad as it is. Venkys aren't bothered that he would walk away for nothing, they will just fund the difference themselves anyway.

Nobody will be coming in while they are in Scotland. Season will have started before we make a signing.
