I spoke with deano last Saturday as we played at bramall Lane for my mates stag do and he was there. Told me the deal is pretty much done. Will be another loan deal as Man Utd wanted 12M and we weren’t prepared to pay it.

If he has a good season in the PL with us, that 12 million price tag might look like an opportunity missed. However, as things stand, we need that money for other areas.
 
Another season in the prem and we'll be spending 12 like nobody's business with our new investors. Well just buy him next year don't worry 🤞

Hope this doesn't come back to haunt me. It's guaranteed to now though. Guaranteed

I agree, I think 12M is a good price. Unfortunately until the court case is finished I can’t see us spending anything. I hope I’m wrong but I think we’ll be signing mainly free agents.
 
So your telling me we cant muster 12m to sign the best young english keeper in the game ill pledge this now if we dont spend over 35m i will sell my season ticket and hold me to it pls
 
There’s time for things to change.
£12m is a huge amount for this club, and whether we like it or not there are other areas of the team which require spending where you are unlikely to resolve the issue with a simple loan.
For example, you will struggle to get a club to loan you their £12m striker!
However we could make a deal dependant on us staying up...for example pay a loan fee now, and if we stay up we pay the £12m. Benefits both clubs and everyone’s a winner.

However if not, then sadly this can go one of two ways.

We stay up- we try and sign a goalkeeper from a Man U with premier league experience and the price heads upwards...and we won’t pay it unless we have some new rich backer.

We go down- And we cant risk buying him anyway, unless he’s been decidedly average and his price is significantly lower. (Can’t see that happening)
 
At Beighton last Sunday, Deano said that we had bid £12m, but Man Utd had turned it down, and that the loan deal should be all sorted this week.

£12 Million is probably in the right area, but i think the Loan deal is significantly better for us this season. We're getting a really top keeper for a season.

Its like buying a car on PCP. Down payment, set number of monthly payments and then at the end you either pay the balloon payment or give the car back. Although in this case, the value of the asset may (will) increase during this period, unless we have fixed £12 Million to buy next season

Whilst the court case will be a factor, i believe (from media and comments from Wilder/ the club) that the budgets were set at the end of the season. I've heard from different sources that we can't actually register a player just yet anyway. So its either tomorrow or 2 weeks tomorrow when we can register players again.
We only received our official Prem status yesterday.
 

In an ideal world DH would be returning on a permanent, to allow us to use the 2 prem loans on the forward positions, but the most important thing is to get him back for next season. A very good keeper, a great presence on & off the field and someone who has obviously bought into being a blade.

If Man Utd want more than £12m for him, they are using Gunn as a market guide, where as we were possibly using sam johnstone ;)

If we can get some kind of loan now, buy later at an agreed figure, that would be perfect. Between £12m to £15m and we’d be doing a great bit of business. It’ll be interesting to see what Etheridge goes for, as it appears the opening bids/hints of interest have been between £8m and £9m.
 
If available at £12m, that would be a steal. He's gonna play for England one day. Pickford went for £30-odd million.
I'm certain if that figure has been established as what Man Utd want we'd be looking to meet it one way or another.
I can see them wanting more, and if that's the case I can see why we're thinking twice.

There's time for the middle ground to be found.
 
I can see why we wouldn’t pay 12m for him, however there is another way of looking at this.

If we loan him we are still going to be paying 10-12million further up the pitch. We know what we’re getting with Dean so there is no risk, so why not buy him and use the loan further up the pitch. Who is to say we don’t spend 10m on a player that just doesn’t work out, we can’t afford that more than we can’t afford not to buy Dean if we can.

If he’s as good as we think he is, his value will double anyway.

It’s the same with Dowell, ok he didn’t set the world alight but he did well in big games, West Brom and Villa for example. We know what we are getting he’s settled and liked by the squad

He wasn't for sale, nevermind at 12mil

There's one or two who missed the renewal deadline that will be pleased to take it off your hands.

I don't believe he has any intention of surrendering his Man U registration as his ultimate ambition is to play for them.

What Wilder, our fans, Man U or anyone else wants is secondary after that, so unless Man U tell him that he's not getting a new contract he'll stay exactly where he is for the foreseeable and we can discuss prices, value, and sell on values all we want.

It ain't gonna happen.

Now I remember why I never usually bother with the rumours section at any time and the forum in general in the summer.

Back to my holiday :cool:

We should step up our game, free agents are all fun and games at Championship level, but if we really gonna try to stay in the PL you gotta need some quality players, which are not available transfer free. Obviously we shouldn't gamble and go all in, bc there's still a change that we're going down even with quality buys. But at least invest a part of the money we get with playing in the PL in long-term value players.

We’ve just been promoted to the premier league. Wilder has said we will break out transfer record.

Of course we aren’t going to sign mainly free agents. We spent 6m plus in the championship with the on going ownership issues. Even with net sales.
 
12m for Hendo and everybody is fine with it?
This isn't 1920s Germany, he's a good Championship keeper who still has mistakes in him.
 

Loan DH as No1 and just buy Westwood as backup for £1m - the grunters need the cash 😂
