doesnt sound like fleetwood fans care

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Reports suggest done deal for six figure sum. Any confirmation?

 

[Groucho Blade]

What reports?
WUEDP?

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

 

[SteveBlade]

Reports as in Twitter and Instagram pages with 12 followers?

Done deal.

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Not on twitter so don’t really know just got sent it, which is why I asked if anyone had heard anything

 

[Ben_1982]

Nothing to do with luck. We could have signed him in August but pissed about too much and missed out. At least the money we saved helped refurbish KM’s Mayfair penthouse......

Think you may want to get your facts right. Was Fleetwood “pissing about” not us

 

[BigBed]

Staying in the Copthorne tonight!??????

 

[Antonb]

that twitter notice was from a couple of days ago.

 

[Pinchy]

How unfortunate it would be to let a story get in the way of the truth. Unless there is a whoosh I am missing.

No, just an agenda from the usual Bladebrains including the same tired old side-splitters that weren’t remotely funny first time round. The SSSH is going to be very busy for the next month. No wonder there’s a crisis on the NHS. It will only take a fax gag to bring the whole thing tumbling down.

 

[Antonb]

even I thought that deal might have gone through by now. Even by our standards. I thought that what Wilder was referring too in doing early deals, if possible.

 

[Blade56]

Stayin at my gaff tonight. Will be announce tomorrow at 2pm

Unless Rosler’s allegedly made the comment in the back of a random taxi, not interested.

Brilliant how that story broke about 4 hours ago and yet this is the first mention of it on here whilst threads from nobodys saying "Fleck is going to Burnley" get about 400 replies in 10 minutes!

I'm quite confident we will get Cole with what Rosler has said and with them signing Madden. Not sure about the player himself but he obviously has attributes we lack .

I was looking for ages to see where it had been mentioned but couldn’t find! Unbelievable Jeff

I've been at work and assumed it had been mentioned but when I looked, nothing!

An article about D.C. on FLW disappeared after 2 hours live today.

Funny, as the same thing happened with a Ricky Holmes article on the Kent Live website last night.

Are the Russians hacking us?!

I hope this post will come to bite me on the arse but I don’t get it. None of it apart from maybe he bagged a handful this season..

Just seams to be an average player piggy backing on the back of his Dads name.

Also from the brilliant transfer window video in the summer which suggested Fleetwood were prepared to just let him leave for no fee initially?

The guy seems to be improving year after year. He was gutted when the transfer didn’t go through in August, but did he sulk? No, he kicked on. We could alll learn a lesson from that.

He's fast, young, has an eye for goal if not yet prolific, and relatively cheap. We have a manager with a good record of improving players, this really is a low risk, extremely high potential signing.

I do recall him and his dad having a number of harsh words though about Fleetwood and the Chairman? Ill give him his dues though 8 goals since and at 22 I won't write him off.

I'm firmly on the fence about this lad.

What I will say though, in the early stages of the careers of even the best strikers, their goalscoring is often questionable. They join a club and they're prolific from then onwards.

Not saying this is going to be the case, but he really does look to have the tools, if not quite yet the technical ability to complement them. We could bring him onto the next level.

Quite right. 20 goals in 105 games were Thierry Henry's statistics at Monaco. Even worse at Juve albeit from the wing.

 

[Esablade]

The thing I don’t get about this one is that apparently he really wanted to come here in the summer and Fleetwood fucked up with the timing or summat?, if we were still interested ( and he is) surely he’d be the first through the door?

I’d assumed our interest had cooled...

Or someone else's interest was sparked

 

[Esablade]

Yep..which brings us back to Wilder’s ‘they’ve got to want to be here...’

It’s not always not having the technical ability, most footballers don’t always have the confidence to put on the pitch what they are capable of doing. With the right manager....

Maybe with Clarke doing well, clayton looking sharp. Add in Coutts injury and Carruthers "form" a midfield was now top priority. Get him in first and the look what's left of the budget.

Yep...think you might be right...Ched an Lavery coming back also.
