Hob Nob Anyone?

Charlie Austin Update......

Burnely manager Sean Dyche say he will stay unless the recieve a "ridiculous" offer.

Think we have a chance on this one as our opening bid is normally a packet of monster munch and some HMV gift vouchers. Certainly ridiculous enough anyway.

McDermott now saying it's less than 50/50 that we'll sign anybody. Still adamant we won't be signing Ince as well - who the fcuk is it?

Which is less, the first 50 or the second 50?

Great idea. So the opposition can't see our goal?

#Wolves keen on Simon Church according to @TimNash1 - McDermott said he expected bids for the #readingfc striker. £500k would do it

We should be able to knock Wolves down so we only have to pay £250k, surely?

+1

So - to recap, and in summary - nothing is happening.

The club went public with a "bid" for someone for a lot of money (thus showing our Premier League ambition), but would have probably disappeared into a vortex up it's own rectum had the offer actually been accepted.

And yes - I would rather it be that way than Quite Pricey Rejects.......

He said that last night after the game. I don't know why people seem to think that the club are wasting time telling people we're making bids for people when we're not. If our offer for Ince was miles out, Blackpool would have refused it immediately. They took their time over it, which suggests, I think, that it was a worthy offer.

For this only to have reached by five pages by this time shows how quiet today has been.

With the utmost respect to who we have signed, Is this going to be a window that has regularly seen us within touching distance of "stella" players but will again fall into the "we tried to do some business but in the end this wasn't possible" ???

This..

If we do go down now, it will be the same mistakes as last time in the Prem and the board should take all the blame.

Last time though Coppell was told there was money there but he opted not to spend it

Reading Fc bidding 8 mill for Ince not a chance

Do you mean we should be signing "stellar" players or just ones with alcohol and wife beating issues?

I can confirm we are NOT signing Chris Solly from Charlton.

Oooooooh I have some real intel. Could be very exciting if true!!!
