Bolton Wanderers boss Owen Coyle is considering an Arsenal swap deal for Gary Cahill.
The Bolton News understands the England defender’s representatives spoke to the Gunners over the weekend and that they are willing to match Wanderers’ £17 million valuation.
It is believed that the North London club would prefer a cash-plus-player deal which could the highly-rated Spanish defender Ignasi Miquel.
However, rumours are emerging that Arsenal are prepared to offer striker Nicklas Bendtner as a makeweight.

I believe this is what you would refer to as a 'fail'.

I'm not sure why that is at fail... you show a picture that says that at 16:22 the move was on hold - then 26mins later it was back on.jimbo_bwfc wrote:I believe this is what you would refer to as a 'fail'.
it may be bollox - but it's a perfectly possible sequence of events surely??
or am i missing something?
Re: Official Gary Cahill transfer thread
if arsenal and sours are the options - then I can't see it being spurs..
surely the logistics of fannying about negotiating equivalence fees and wage-structures for FOUR makeweights makes any such deal simply ludicrous?

Re: Official Gary Cahill transfer thread
If either story was actually 'news', then yes, not out of the realms of possibility I suppose. Although for a move to be 'on hold' to being 'close' in 26 minutes is pretty unlikley.thebish wrote:I'm not sure why that is at fail... you show a picture that says that at 16:22 the move was on hold - then 26mins later it was back on.jimbo_bwfc wrote:I believe this is what you would refer to as a 'fail'.

Although the first story was just a rewrite of the Bolton News story, then 26 minutes later, a re-write of the Telegraph story from this morning.
Perhaps it highlights more the pointless-ness of that particular website. It just takes stories and rewrites them, I'd have thought it would have least been done with some sort of structure and logic about it. Evidentley not.

He would probably do quite well for you, he's not a bad player, just a bit up his own arse. Far too over confident and smugofficer_dibble wrote:I'd have bendy he'd be a decent striker at a mid table club...and were a bottom 6 club!!

Bottom 7 club.
Stop doing us down.

You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

I think you'll find that at the moment we'd be in the top 4...

In all seriousness I'd take Bendtner, if his ego will lower him to come here. Then again, doesn't his agent (his dad) reckon top European teams are after him?

Re: Official Gary Cahill transfer thread
Phil McNulty just retweeted someone saying that 'Cahill to sign for Arsenal very soon'.
I'm pretty sure the guy he retweeted is one of the three genuine football agents on twitter- rather than the other 50 or so clearly fake accounts.
Being with the ultra-cautious BBC tends to make me think he wouldn't have retweeted whether he heard something too.

McNulty is a shit journalist though, so I'd be inclined to distrust him.
Hope Cahill goes though

Only becomes pointless if people don't click on them, or you have a respected brand to ruin.
