cambridgeshire canary 6,675 Posted October 5, 2020 Let's see what kind of Business both us and the other clubs around us do or don't get up too today shall we? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robornio 106 Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) I’ve read a few pieces in the media that described today as a ‘bargain finder day’. Could be an active one, not necessarily for us. But I hope we cover any positions of players we lose (eg Tim Klose leaving for Basel or Cantwell to Leeds – should either of those happen).

NFN FC 1,123 Posted October 5, 2020 Cantwell to Leeds doesn't have to be done today though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chicken 2,604 Posted October 5, 2020 And they have just signed a winger in the form of Raphinha, so one might suspect that Leeds may have had a look at what Cantwell would cost as they reportedly had a look at James at Man Utd too. Raphinha is setting them back a rumoured £17million, so you can see, perhaps lower prices are easier found outside of English football at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robornio 106 Posted October 5, 2020 Ah yes, very true. That new rule of different leagues. Annoyingly it defies the point of having a window. Not to mention causing disruption, with Premier clubs constantly sniffing around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not to mention causing disruption, with Premier clubs constantly sniffing around. I'll be honest, I personally think it's disgusting. It's clearly a situation that is designed to best suit the premier league. We don't need two extra weeks. We need the window shut. Two months into the new season with the window open in this day and age is ridiculous. It's clearly unsettling players and teams - and not just ours. I hope every EFL club plays hardball with EPL teams and bleeds them for every penny, especially after the EPL said they wouldn't help out the EFL financially due to covid putting many clubs at financial risk. It's clearly going to have an impact on us too. I believe Webber is on record for saying that project restart saw a loss in £15-20million in revenue normally expected for that period. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Making Plans 936 Posted October 5, 2020 PL Clubs who want to buy imports will get that business out the way today and then concentrate on what they can aquire from the Championship over the next 11 days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One way to stop us losing anyone else would be to take the all of the club's phones(incl mobiles,i-phones etc) off the hook,unplug the fax machines and computers for the next 11 days ........sorted 😄 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raphinha on the wing and Rodrigo in attack is one hell of a good double act for Leeds, not one to give them compliments but they sure are doing all they can to stay up and credit to them Edited October 5, 2020 by cambridgeshire canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael Starr 519 Posted October 5, 2020 Angus Gunn available for loan... could be a good move to keep Krul on his toes. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought it was a bit much at the time. I'm not sure they'd want to loan him out to play 2nd fiddle though. And I'm not sure Krul is ready to be a back up keeper. Can't see it happening.

Alex Moss 2,165 Posted October 5, 2020 Well, don’t know whether to be pleased or disappointed so far?! With most of the interest in Max coming from abroad, and 25mins to go, could the unthinkable actually happen? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would be absolutely massive for us. It will be remarkable if we can somehow keep them all. Unthinkable even, I didn’t think it possible but still, I saw and see no point in throwing the toys out of the pram until the event. And at the moment, as it stands, massive credit to Webber and Farke - credit would be due. And season would start in earnest at Rovrum! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Btw by would the unthinkable happen, I meant could we see him still here lining up against Rotherham, Midlands! I don’t doubt Max’s temperament in the slightest 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
