CONFIRMED Tom Cannon signs until 2029, with a year option

[NerdyBlade]

If so they mean proper business on getting promoted even if it does sound high 13m

Aye because all the money Leeds spent on promotion got them... oh hang on

 

[FTPE]

Why would you almost double the offer!?

 

[Cappy]

Something not right there. You don't bid 13m when the last bidder was 7

 

[ChuntyMalone]

Proper business should be not paying over the odds for a very average championship striker? We've made that mistake before

 

[NerdyBlade]

Something not right there. You don't bid 13m when the last bidder was 7

...that's a really good point that I feel quite stupid for not realising

Might be the same flat 7 just with some more add ons?

 

[mancunianblade]

Nixon hasnt said theyre bidding 13m, hes said they want him on loan and will pay 13m **If they get promoted

Oh well

Absolutely get the fuck outta dodge for that price.

 

[MayorOJC]

If he goes to Sunderland and takes game time from Isidor, that's an advantage to us

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Hopefully this madness pushes us towards Riis or some other far more reasonable alternative

Oh well

Even more stupid than usual from Nixon.

As long as Sunderland get 2 draws against Leeds and Burnley I couldn’t care less who they sign.

 

[steve26272]

£13m for a young striker at championship level who scores one in two is not that unreasonable given today's prices. I suspect we'll not match that offer though.

£13m for a striker on the back of a 1:2 championship goal ratio, fuckin crackers

Hold our beer

 

[Booker4]

Why would you almost double the offer!?

I suspect because our offer was never going to be accepted at £7m. Sunderland offer is only a loan with £13m if they get promoted which is easy if you get promoted to the PL.

 

[McGrath]

£13 Mil? Fucking have him, 7 was too much and double is just ridiculous

Problem is, who do we sign instead?

He'll improve them. But we won't be better

I know but that's the usual rate for young strikers doing well at championship level.

 

[Wireblade]

Leicester would only get the money if Sunderland get promoted. They will want to sell to the team they think is most likely to go up.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

13 million if promoted and you think he can do a job for you is low for a premier league club signing a championship striker.

We paid more for Mcburnie

 

[FTPE]

I suspect because our offer was never going to be accepted at £7m. Sunderland offer is only a loan with £13m if they get promoted which is easy if you get promoted to the PL.

So it could technically be, £7m with 6m if promoted. That's manageable...
But still too much in my eyes.

 

[NerdyBlade]

I think we'll go back in with loan to buy of 10mil and basically say "who do you think has a better chance of promotion - us or them"

13 mil is a lot but it's a massive gamble for Leicester as they know Sunderland can be hit and miss, whereas we've shown a bit more consistency. Ultimately comes down to who is more likely to get them the money

Not being funny mate but looking at his highlights reel he looks bang average

 

[JHaber]

Not that I buy into people knowing all the details behind what is sent between the clubs on these negotiations.....but Leicester going with Sunderland's bigger offer is a bigger gamble than us paying £7m in the first place. Sorry for saying this, I really am...but Leeds take one auto place (purely due to the squad, you could put a monkey in charge). Then it's a 1 in 3 with Sunderland at the back of the queue. And playoffs are what they are.

Baldes announce swoop for Stoke City star....

As Enda Stevens hobbles through the door on crutches...

Enda will give us a good reference

 

[Rodley]

Sunderland are going for it.

I didn't want to say anything because I've only ever seen highlighs as well, but as far as reels go, that's a pretty crappy one.

 

[Aston max]

Can’t have a great highlight reel after less than a year in actual league football to be fair. And highlight reels mean fuck all in this day and age, did you ever see the Higdon one? Looked like prime Ronaldo..
