    Despite what CP says about Solly & Stephens training with us, I have it on good authority that Solly is at Chadwell Heath now talking to Big Sam.

    Source; a West Ham youth player.

    Just passing on the info, not saying I'm ITK.

    Understood that you're passing on info, but I'd trust what CP is saying over a hamster youth player

    @JamesNursey: Off to #WBA this pm. Re: #AVFC transfer news. Will go in tomorrow's Mirror first! Expecting a striker & a defensive midfielder to sign

    Its good thing Stephens isn't a defensive midfielder then.
    Pirlo type defensive midfielder....

    pirlo isin't a defensive midfielder he just sits deeper than most cm's don't mean he is defensive.

    Pirlo is more of a deep lying playmaker (in fm terms) ;)

    All these 'insider' and 'agent' twitter accounts are more often than not utter rubbish. I would only believe official sources if I were you.

    Leaving us with only a few hours to spend the money. ideal.

    Who said anything about these twitter accounts being anything other than bored 15 year olds?

    What pisses me off is the amount of shit rumours flying around on twitter which (most of us) take with a pinch of salt, yet the club refuse to come out and publicly say anything.

    Would be nice if they just confirmed/denied any offers for players and whether they've accepted them. I'm not so niave to expect them to ever do such a thing though.................................

    Was Powell actually asked about Solly being sold?

    He said he's trained with us today, so either he's waiting until after training to talk to other clubs, or he isn't talking to other clubs at all

    Or Powell is lying to prevent widespread panic!

    I get what you're saying but i really doubt if there has been a bid enquiry or whatever and it was accepted is that we wouldn't make the player train as in all honesty it's a waste of time, get the move done as quick as possible so we've got longer to buy a replacement if we wanted to/if we can

  • maybe the whole squad trained at Wet Spam to make it easier to conduct these covert transfer talks

    Yep, every club makes an official response to every random rumour on twitter. The various communications departments have nothing better to do than trawl the myriad of fan sites and bogus twitter accounts and write a response to every one...

    CP told newshopper there's only been one bid for one of our players-and that's believed to be Stephens.

    Well whilst we didnt spend a fortune on Button, we did spend some money quite clearly. If we were that screwed, we wouldnt spend anything on a back up keeper and it would have been a free transfer.

    He has clearly stated in the interview that if someone goes, he needs to be covered in bringing someone in.

    I have a feeling Stephens would be replaced by Quinn, and Solly by Richardson.

    Everyone in football lies, wouldn't take anything anyone says for gospel, even SCP said he hadn't even heard the Fuller rumour and totally denied it, few days later we signed him. It's an intricate game of cat and mouse.

    Hayes trained the day he went and spoke to brentford.

    Do SCP's comments not put the lid on the talk of Hamer's departure? Specifically:

    “I’ve brought in David Button for a lot less then what was quoted, that’s for certain. And that makes our goalkeeping area even stronger. I am happy with the squad, I don’t want it depleted.”

    Would seem to put one of the panicky topics on here to rest.

    As someone has said on here before, these transfers often appear to work on the chain principle - a bit like people selling their house before they can buy.

    If someone at the top of the chain completes his sale, then the next people in line can complete and so on.


    It's already been mooted on here that a transfer of Fish from Gillingham has been set up ready to go ahead, should Solly move.

    Which probably means Gillingham already have options to replace Fish, should he be sold.

    Won't be happening then if they use the same solicitor as me!
