CH's all singing all dancing transfer gossip thread on toast

[ohjimmyjimmy]

Rodallega sounds like a perfect QPR signing in this window.
Money-no-object merchants offering silly money to players who can't be arsed to wait til summer to wait for more considered offers and try and weigh up a move that shows ambition as opposed to whoever will pay the most.
But yeah, i see that happening fairly soon, as he'll still see himself as a billy big bollocks at the moment will Rodallega.

However, the Oracle has vehemently denied it. Says that we're "battering the feck out of the final doors" on two signings, one of whom is apparently a "bigger fish" than Bangoura.

ok - grrrrrr... you've sucked me into twitter now!!

Nixon's utterings thus far on these two mystery top players:


Kicking down doors galore. Only final one in two cases.

(are we still in for Bagoura?)
Bigger fish on the fryer

Battering feck out of the final door. In both cases.

If u get nod on either I won't just write it I'll do a run round the Reebok on a victory roll ...

(is the "final door" personal terms?)
Not an issue in either case

All focus on these two. Both would be straight in the team. Everything else on hold.

(what is the "final door"?)
One person's agreement in both cases. No more details on this.

(will we find out today?)
Likely to be an answer on one. Hobnail boots on for other.

I believe what he says.

But guarantee within a day or two he'll be saying "Still waiting on answers, need to get a move on".

Or sommat like that. Its usually the way.

Its not Nixons fault but all we're hearing is all the deals that get started but never finished that you never hear about.

One summer under Allardyce we'd made moves for about 80 players. Most you never even heard about in the press!

Nixon twitters......

Le Toux a possible. Bangoura will need to do better in next Mali game. But current two are VIP stuff.

how the toss are we going to sign "VIP" players who will walk straight into the team???

have to say that, despite myself, I am intrigued!!

I refuse to get my hopes up, last time this happened we ended up with Tuncay!

I'm holding off to date. I can't get worked up as it'll 99% of is be tosh. Exactly what BWFC_i says.

I hate the "ITK" stuff.

Sorry to piss on more chips, but these 2 x ''so called' VIP Marquee signings will NOT happen - this happens every window, everyone gets excited and nothing happens, this is BWFC be prepared to be disappointed

We'll get Le Toux and that will be it....

Would it really hurt you to say "possibly" or "probably" instead of just NOT? You're no more ITK than the rest of us, and though you might dress your rampant pessimism up as realism, it's bringing the rest of us down.

Penfold?

NR is Nathan Redmond.

[Chrisfu]

Love him or hate him, most of his calls end up being accurate and confirmed one way or another by someone within the club (usually Coyle), during or after the chase.

I don't doubt that he knows that we're chasing two players in particular, with names in hand, but at least he doesn't spill the beans before the club are ready for him to. These could be two players that other clubs don't know are available, so I for one am thankful for him keeping his lips sealed. All too often we've lost out on transfer targets due to bigger clubs coming in at the last minute and gazumping us.

Remember this one? This chestnut was ready to sign before journo's reported his imminent move to us; and he ended up at Chelsea.

NR is Nathan Redmond.

If its him then it'll be a good deal by Owen, will be a quality player ina few seasons!

[The Axman]

is that the Nathan Redmond I know: born Matlock Bath 21st April 2008?

Are you being serious ??

Do you really believe that BWFC will sign 2 'top quality' players in the next 4 days who will go straight into the team from day one - if so your really are a PG believer !

This also means that 1. they are affordable & 2. they are willing to join a 'skint' club in a serious relegation scrap and could be playing championship football next season (unless its just a loan....)

I don't actually disbelieve what Nixon is saying, I just happen to believe the club are feeding him the usual 'bollocks' rumours to try and appease the fans
