JacknOry Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 3 hours ago, Biz said: Why is it that most people who consider themselves to be “boycotters” expect big signings, lots of money spent and have high expectations? Surely those things are irrelevant to people who are only concerned with the prospect of new owners? Surely, those who say NAPM wouldn’t care if the owners spent money or not? As Bob Fleming pointed out, the veil slips so often with “MGPINSERTNEWNAMESLAYER” and Jal that they’re both a complete laughing stock. Real world indeed.. I'm a boycotter but quite the opposite. if they wont leave the club - at least leave it in as best shape as possible.

I get that a few of you might not think Scottish fitbaw is not as bad as made out But your in the majority even your gaffer struggled up here for years there are gems up here McGeuoch is free and has had as good a season as McGinn who they want 6 million for If ive upset anybody I am sorry Just sick of the usual Scottish footballs pub league patter if it is dish me out some numbers of your pub teams pretty sure I could still play ??? You went off at a tangent at English posters being arrogant about Scottish players, when the only person who was in conversation with you - was Irish.

It's nothing personal against Scotland, the Scottish league, Mrs Doubtfire, haggis or battered Mars bars. I just don't think Fulham , or any Premier league team, will be in for McGeoch. I hope we sign him. You reckon he could go straight to the premiership obviously? Battered mars bars - only the Scottish.

Everybody was talking about Dack speculation, you brought up interest in McGeoch from other clubs and Bigdog was the only one to entertain conversation with you. Where is this loads? There was one Irish guy before you went on full attack at the English. Btw - a whole thread has been opened up especially for you to talk about Scottish football... Edited June 4, 2018 by JacknOry
Scotland1 Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) After seeing Kamara at Fulham, Kodjia at Villa and Bristol and Dhediou at Bristol this year it's apparent those who score in French league two are capable of stepping up. This lad at Nimes Umut Bozok has twenty four goals this yeAr, some taken nicely, and he's twenty one. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ohg6yjOfZNs Additionally I'd like Sidy Sarr, six foot five and a tough tackler in the middle. He's 21 and also a great eye for goal, covers the pitch like a Yaya Toure. Ours the pair for a few million, plenty of value and scope to develop and sell on. would also ask Bournemouth for Lys Mousset on loan if he can't break into their 11. Edited June 4, 2018 by Scotland1
J*B Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Any chance we can get back to transfer talk rather than arguing about Scottish football here? 3

Its important not to ignore overseas. I’m all for experienced Championship players but sometimes you have to look for the hidden gems in Ligue 2, Bundesliga 2 etc. Plus they are likely to be cheaper.

I recall having a convo with my sister In the past year or so about players who "most fans" considered 'poor' at their time with us in the Prem, but would have been first name on the teamsheet over the past 3 years. Mokoena was the one we settled on ? Heck, Even Keith "McPointy" Andrews was mentioned...

Norbert Rassragr Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Yes it is a blatant Scottish accent, but the whole of Great Britain is 'England' to Americans because they are insular and thick.

chaddyrovers Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 Possible bid for Edwards from us to Posh https://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/sport/football/posh/latest-news-peterborough-united-accept-a-million-pound-bid-for-a-league-one-player-1-8521672 From the link below The only other Posh players who would realistically command a seven-figure fee are midfielder Gwion Edwards and possibly centre-back Ryan Tafazolli. The Peterborough Telegraph did field a call from a representative of the Blackburn media regarding Edwards. Edwards, who is entering the last year of his Posh contract, was outstanding in both games against Blackburn last season and the promoted Lancastrians have money to spend as they prepare for life in the Championship. I dont know how truth it is but just found so thought I post it anyway 1

I'd be happy if we signed him (assuming he plays like that all the time!) 1
Backroom Tom Posted June 5, 2018 Backroom Posted June 5, 2018 Interesting way of running a club the Posh owner has, refreshing in a way! Why did I just turn into Yoda?
JacknOry Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 Whoever wrote that article has got it completely wrong. The tweet stated that a 7-figure bid has been accepted for one of their players - not a 'million pound' bid. So the whole article trying to figure out which players would be worth selling for a million quid is pointless. It could quite easily be Marriot or Maddison as a seven-figure fee could be anywhere between 1,000,000 and 9,999,999.

I don't know if is pointless, from my research of them and following their manager on twitter, I would reckon only a max of 3 of their players would be expected to be sold for a 7 figure sum. So you can really narrow the list down. I am guessing it is Marriot, but you never know

But yeah, 3 or 4 players tops could be worth a mil or more. Edited June 5, 2018 by JacknOry
