But could be one final twist...http://bit.ly/EisaRace" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Looks like tonight will be Mo's last game then (if he plays). Glad it's coming to a climax but hope we will be announcing at least two forwards in the next week and have deals agreed for players.
I don't see a lot of options out there right now but I'd like to see us look at Ahearne-Grant from Charlton or Shawn McClulsky from Bristol City for a small six figure fee. Buying some potential that way and hopefully goals with it.

Hopefully the resolution is one of two outcomes:
Championship club mentioned comes up with cash, or Mo goes nowhere.

So the price is now £3 million plus.Robin wrote:I've heard rumours (and it is only rumours) that Leeds are in for Eisa now. Bolton and Sheff Utd also interested.
A nice new 100 capacity covered bike storage area for the loyal fans that have been cycling to the ground for over 30 years.
....Not holding my breath.

Scandalous.

Would be nice. They put decent cycle storage in at St Mary’s in Southampton, with a new traffic-free path along the Itchen constructed not long after and the cycle traffic flow data on matchdays was pretty massive if I recall my analysis of the data five years ago correctly.Malabus wrote:So the price is now £3 million plus.Robin wrote:I've heard rumours (and it is only rumours) that Leeds are in for Eisa now.

Might be our belief, RCS, but all the evidence points to him leaving and soon.

Let me try and clarify in simple terms:Ihearye wrote:Yet it is also your belief if someone puts up the cash. He is off
I believe that IF a club offers the right amount we will accept the bid.
But, I DO NOT believe that will happen.
Same way I believe IF we signed Kante and Modric we would have the best midfield in L2, but I DO NOT believe that will happen.
The derisory offers made to date are the usual try-on's that we've come to expect in the shabby world of football. Clearly, though, a number of clubs rate him and surely it's only a matter of time before one of them matches the Robins' valuation. We'll see. If any club buys him, I'd like it to be either Bristol City or Brentford. If it's the latter, I'd love to see Illias come here as part of the deal (assuming he hasn't already been moved on).

Brentford would be good if anyone does make the required offer. A stepping stone on the way to a dream Premier League move to Fulham.vickeryc wrote:The derisory offers made to date are the usual try-on's that we've come to expect in the shabby world of football.

But I still don’t think anyone will and am looking forward to seeing Mo line up for us in the first game of the season.

Sunderland offer reported to be £1.5m:

We'll probably never know the figure because don't most transfers now go for undisclosed fees?

Definitely need a sell-on. I would also say we need a two layer sell-on; i.e a percentage of whatever sell-on Sunderland agree if they sell in the future. If they sell to Brentford in two years for £5m it is all well and good getting 20% of that. But if Sunderland have a clause to get 20% if Brentford sell, say to Fulham for £30m, two years later then if we could get 5% of that 20% it would be good.Robin wrote:I hope that article is correct but I also hope there is a sell on clause in addition to the fee.
And the sum of that amounts to your definitive statement "it is all sorted, he is going nowhere" ? .... think not.

Secure cycle storage would genuinely help me attend more games. I'm often tight for time on a Saturday not being able to leave home until after 1430. By far the quickest option is cycling but, the rusty old brackets outside the PRE are usually full by the time I arrive meaning I'd have to find somewhere else for it nearby and leave it to the mercy of the local yoofs. Sounds trivial, but it's a real disincentive for me to attend games.
