#cafc still looking to get two - if not three - deals over the line. Intention is for two of those to be strikers. But think any chance of Matty Taylor is gone. Same with Louis Moult.
#cafc have rejected four bids from Brentford for Lyle Taylor. The fourth one was made yesterday.
I know people want guarantees Lyle will be staying. But the simple answer to that is it ain't over until we get to 5pm. #cafc

Matty Taylor is gone. Same with Louis Moult.
Then Cawley moves on to incomings: we’re still working on two if not three deals but moves for Taylor from Bristol and Moult from Preston look to be dead. Also he says no substance in Troy Parrott rumour.
Richard Cawley is as usual providing sterling service for us, even if it isn't always what we want to hear. His "will open the portals of hell" tweet especially. Should I ever meet him i'm going to buy him beers all evening just for that one.
Also if Brentford bid 4 times yesterday, i assume that means they've now given up.
They've missed out on all their targets so far, so just like last year when they didn't give us a striker because they couldn't get deals done themselves, they won't let him leave before they have a replacement
Would the third be Ivan Toney as a Lyle replacement IF he goes? Posh want a decent fee for him so I can’t see it happening without a sale happening first.
Dont forget we also have one empty loan spot still to fill.
May have already been posted but there’s a post on Facebook suggesting Taylor wants out, he’s not trained all week, had a bust up with Bowyer and stormed out the training ground.

However, if the last one came yesterday and they haven’t put one in today that gives me the impression that they are maybe focusing elsewhere.
3 hours left for a bit to be accepted, and then personal terms to be agreed, signed in person etc. Can’t see it happening
From Richard Cawley
It’s like asking a girl out four times and each time she says no.
It’s bordering on harassment now and I think it should be reported to the authorities.

Intriguing

Guess they'll be names we dont expect like Jonathan Leko
