Heard it here first.. Marcus Maddison to be announced before 1pm I got a reliable source inside the club that I trust. Talks progressed well it seems the club and Marcus came to an agreement in the end. Middlesbrough was the other club involved but was offering (1/2) #cafc
First time Nixon has said we have offered a 'fair' wage, normally says we are cheapos
Both Peterborough's owner and manager have already said our offer to Maddison was fairly decent.
I haven't seen Dmac say anywhere it was a good offer, not saying that isn't true just haven't seen it myself. All I read was Maddison was buzzing and London isn't an issue, Nixon before did say we offered poor wages, this was recently and in the past, also suggested that Bowyer needs to see if the owners have money basically. That's why I thought it was relevant to point out what Nixon had said
I think if we were announcing someone today the media department would've been photographing / interviewing the player this morning or yesterday to have assets for the announcement. So if Olly says it's rubbish, it's rubbish.
"Bowyer is hoping to have Cullen, Lyle Taylor and Sam Field available for the derby against Fulham."
Jesus wept.....are our players made of glass or what !!! Cullen got a ball on his toe & jarred his knee....wtf ?? Bert Trautman played the Cup final with a fucking broken arm.
With regard to any new signings...........doesn't really matter that much now. Have to be signed by midday tomorrow to be able on play on Wednesday so might as well forget any signings until Friday week as in case the club have forgotten WE DONT HAVE ANYMORE GAMES UNTIL AFTER THE WINDOW HAS SHUT.

To be honest mate - that is exactly how it seems to me. People telling me I shouldn't make assumptions are the ones making the bigger assumptions in my book. I am just looking at it and trying to understand why things that should have happened haven't happened. Ok, it is really difficult to sign players in January, but why haven't they managed to sign up Bowyer? They haven't bought all of the club either. Just f*ing do something positive. Is that really an unreasonable expectation.

I feel like I'm probably coming across as a WUM at times but it's genuine. I understand people want to be positive because of what we just got through but nothing has been shown yet that we are much better off. Roland failed yes but even he when he came in brought in a certain level of player that had pedigree, TBH, Bikey, JBG, Igor etc, none would have been cheap at all. In the end that model failed granted because we had terrible scouts and managers. We have this habbit of being ecstatic very early, I can think of many examples but one that stands out the most was Roger Johnson, check his first match report. Had people calling him a warrior etc, few weeks later he's judas.
I bought into Southall's interview but since then all I've seen is words. I don't blame people for being positive just as much as I don't see the harm in people being negative, again it's expected after the past decade.
I hope I'm completely wrong but my gut does tell me we are going to be severely underwhelmed
Not convinced on this. A guy who played for a Shrewsbury side who finished 18th in league one and now can't even get in the Rangers side, is perhaps not the player we need ready and able to walk into a championship teams midfield.
No doubt a better option to have than the likes of Dempsey and Vennings but with players like Cullen, Field and Oztumer coming back, i don't see him adding much.
My Rangers season ticket holding mate messaged me earlier saying he would do a job for us, same guy also said Joe Dodoo would tear it up though so I don't really pay much attention to him
Me saying if he isn't good enough for Scottish top flight so league 1 is about right is to wind him up, there is deffo quality in Scotland

I don't know how Shrewsbury finishing 18th is much of a reflection on a single player, though.

Being able to walk anywhere is a massive improvement on a lot of our players right now though.

Where did Wimbledon finish with Taylor scoring goals?
