    So, just to be clear, what exactly does not saying the name achieve? Everyone on here knows how rumours work, some come off and some don’t. No need to build up suspense just come out with it. 
    It doesn't work like that, does it?

    You're given confidential information ..... and the moment you blab it all over some internet football forum, you can be sure you'll never again be trusted to keep your mouth shut.

    Zlatan!  Then again when he heard that what the Malmö fans did to his statue is.nothing compared to the roasting he'll get from CL forum if he puts in a performance less than 9.5/10. So he's bottled it.

    Maybe the poster in question can clear up the previous rumour that they posted about a captain from London before sending out another unnamed player with a vague description.

    I won’t hold my breath though.

    I really hope that Midfielder wasn't Mowatt or Maddison that we were penny pinching over, 52k a year extra is hardly crazy money for a proper player
    In the real world 52k a year is a lot of money
    In footballing terms at championship level it is absolutely f all though. I could understand if it was an extra 5k a week or so but 1k and a straight rejection is poor showing. Same as the Gnanduillet bid, ok so they want double, offer half and go from there, we have 0 bargaining skills unless it's for a player on the cheap by the sounds of things, this isn't league 1 anymore, we aren't gonna get by offering 4k a week 2 year contracts.

    Football world isn't realistic as far as money goes I'm afraid.

    5-8k a week contracts = more than likely bang average players = chance of relegation every season. How a group has spent millions and now won't break the wage structure ever so slightly is beyond me
    Not meant as a arguement by the way (its juest an awful lot of extra money), however if Id agreed terms and as has been speculated the agent then comes back and wants an extra grand a week, Id tell them to get off the bus too.

    1 Maddison will not be costing £2.5M, probably less than £1M.

    2 Ok he may not be the role model footballer but we didn't complain too much about Di Canio.

    I hope we get him, but there's only one person that knows & that's him.

    Unfortunately, Brum is closer than London for him.
    Di Canio was a world class player though.

    Top notch trainer as well, by all accounts

    That was the thing that struck me most of all watching Di Canio live. You knew he’d have skill and a footballing brain that others could only dream about but I couldn’t believe how hard the guy worked on the field.

    Best player I have ever seen in a Charlton shirt.

    I remember reading a magazine interview with him about his pre pre-season training regie and it was brutal stuff up in the hills in Italy somewhere.

    Today is the day, Bowyer to sign just before Preston.

    I reckon we’ll have bowyer + one player today.

    The player has to sign before mid-day to be eligible for tomorrow, right?

    The thing I recall about DiCanio was how much he enjoyed that season. I remember Lisbie's Hat-trick against Liverpool and his delight from the sidelines having been substituted. His best days were behind him, but he still had enough to inject some real quality into what was a very good side.
    Anybody with the foresight and bottle to chip David Seaman from the penalty spot was probably having the best season of his whole career

    I understand the valid questions about Madison's character and the fact he has spent six years at Peterborough since the move from Gateshead but to question his ability with his goals and assists record to step up to the Championship is like saying can Taylor  make the step up. Sometimes stats don't lie.

    Have you seen Elfsborg ? Unless he had a hard upbringing I’m pretty sure he was born !
