Pretty sure I read once that the reason mock up kits tend to look better is due to cost. It would be too expensive to produce them in real terms 🤷🏻‍♂️

So because Sunderland will have to pay 25% sell on to Spurs they walk up the asking price so they walk away with the amount they want. I'm not sure they are in the position to turn down a bid of circa £15M tbh

My point was that our coaching team see him day in day out and are far better placed to know someone’s development position than fans who judge it based on a few mins here and there in cups games.

A lot of fans seem to be in the wrong jobs, they have a much better opinion on our squad and their capabilities than our manager and coaching team.

Russell Martin and the team must see him in training every day so will know if he is ready or not. What the play thinks is another matter. if we hadn’t got promoted I think they might have been given more of a chance this season, but last year was about getting back up at the first attempt. is now the time to through an 18yr old into the premier league off playing u21 football only? Need a season playing every week imo and then judge for next season. The youngsters seem to expect to be first teamers by time they are 18 now and don’t want to work for it by going out on loan and proving themselves first

Off to a good start in pre season it seems https://twitter.com/celticfc/status/1814850680529821979?s=46&t=OQrvtqxdga34G9SV_nKtNQ

They might only be looking to sell currently but I’m not sure there are too many clubs who can afford what Arsenal would want in terms of a fee and his wages tbh. Arsenal are bringing in a keeper from Ajax, assuming as their third choice option. How I imagine it will go is nobody will buy him and towards the end of the window they will look to shift on loan. IF we have any interest I expect it might be one that’s done nearer the end of the window after the season has started.

The apples were hanging down off the tree. It was so obvious when you see it!

Any notable players not in attendance tonight?

Well it’s not got off to the most exciting of starts 😴

Nah not having that sorry. You didn’t know about beards until the post signing interview. I think you’ve made the fit. Red is on a lot of countries flags or teams kits so easy to make a link.

Imagine we have agreed on a fee for KWP too then, as ultimately the discussion is over the amount to be paid to go with these two. Irrelevant on the individual prices and wouldn’t be surprised if both higher than expected to benefit FFP

That is a very tedious link, reckon you could make any transfer fit any picture on that logic. i watch Only Connect and the links are very that loose

What’s the connection then??, apples contain sugar…

Can someone comment on the COT cryptic post about signing Sugawara please

I believe the Downes transfer is taking long than we would hope because of the fact WHU want KWP from us. It’s about each club trying to maximise their players value and minimise the value of who they want. I believe if only one of the transfers was in place it would have happened by now.

It was best when Carl Anka was doing it.

I guess it all depends on what he is after, what if he wants £15k a week, should we just give him it? What then about the rest of the youth team, they all come asking for more. Budget totally gone

Exactly where does it stop if we cave in to him, others will then come knocking demanding more. There should be a cap on salary until 18 imo as all that happens now if players move clubs to earn more even though not on a full pro contract.

No dedicated reporter so unlikely. Jacob Tanswell who moved to Villa when we were relegated seems to be sharing transfer info but doesn’t look like we’ll get insight articles anytime soon

I heard last night that it’s likely to be launched this week

Don’t know why people would dm you rather than reply to the message when someone has something to say like every other message people post do. Interesting you are calling most of the users on her simple folk though !

I think the thing for many is the clues are so cryptic that 99% of people can’t get them so it just infuriates people more.

Imagine if it took this long to appoint a new man’s team manager, it’s poor it’s taken so long tbh

Possibility it’s one for the Turkish arm of SR rather than saints? Although not sure why it would go through us, but Lis did I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️
