Call him a knob for stringing people along if you like, but I don't know why anyone would seriously think it's all guesswork at this point. It clearly isn't.

This pseudo bromance obsession you have with Nixon can't be good for you.
Take the hint fella...he's blocked you from twitter for a reason.
I don't have a twitter! He's blocked everyone who doesn't have a twitter account!

Its just frustrating that the bloke clearly knows exactly whats going on, is right every time yet people still pretend he's just "guessing".

I don't know him as a person but he's really spot on when it comes to our transfer targets. I only look to try and keep us on the Wanderer up to date on the transfer front
Pfffft.

I actually think he gets most of them from joe public..

Somebody will tweet him asking about such and such a player (they've seen it on tribal football or some bollocks).. Nixon has never mentioned him previously and probably never heard of him. Yet he rubs his hands and replies "Nothing concrete yet, but he's the sort of player you're looking at"

10 hours later and it's on the mirror with his name on it.. He should have to give his followers the credit!

The Sanchez rumours came from abroad before Nixon got on it

Exactly, this is a transfer thread so we need to talk about gossip and that, don't we?

He reported Sanchez as a target back in June. He was widely tipped to go to Reading at that point.

Do they not have libraries in France?

Oh, hang on, this is one of those strange capital letter anomalies. I may need BWFCDan to clarify. :?

Swanse have bid £4mil for Mark Davies. Ont BN website so presumably came from coyle post match. We want £8m. Wolves will also get a cut so it benefits their coffers if we sell him.

8 mill sounds just about right to me for an English player on a long term contract. If the offer comes close to that figure..sell.

£8m is absolutely ridiculous money for Mavies. In fact, I'm surprised we didn't bite their hand off for the £4m offered.

Well ifwolves are due some...

its like owt in life really dont accept the first offer.

On the basis that:
He has come back unfit and dissinterested
Coyle doesnt know how to use him
Eagles scores more and can play behind a target man
He has been prone to injury in the past

I'ds sell for around half what they get for joe allen. But it leaves us even lighter in centre mid (even though its not his position).

Theres some wonderful f*cking irony going on here.

Anyway, if we can squeeze £6m, I'd be happy. If he's in the shape as claimed by thebish and Bruce, then Ta Ta.

Apparently Steven Fletcher will go for £12m, which shows how inflated the market is. We shouldn't sell for a penny less than £8m. Assuming Davies improves his game a little bit, he'll be the sort who will attract big offers in the future.

According to not Nixon, Reo-Coker has turned down fulham and is looking at a stint in germany or italy, guess the idea of him crawling back is a bit farfetched..

What's the irony? Nixon had the story on the Mirror and noticed people commenting that he'd tweeted about it, well before the BN story was out.

I only noticed it on the bn website looking for a match report from last night!

Either way I reckon he wont be with us by the end of August. Just hope Coyle uses the coin eisely on someone ready now.
