January Transfer Window Thread 2020

[flangejackrabbit]

2 offers turned down on deadline day. I believe, but could be wrong, that one was an improved Wimbledon offer for Hutch after derisory offers a week before. Still in my understanding less than half of what we would have taken.

Sorry, didn’t write that very well. Thinks after that and before because. Ta.

11 Free agents. About 5 of them might be worth looking at.

There were several scouts in the stands yesterday.
Other teams are aware of our problems and hovering

I don't know how up to date the details are, but this site gives you a few ideas of non contract players who might be available, take a look at players who last played in your league. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/league-one/vertragsloseSpieler/wettbewerb/GB3/saison_id/2019/plus/1

 

[Evening Echo]

TOTTENHAM Hotspur and Sunderland both had deadline day bids for Southend United striker Charlie Kelman rejected, Echosport understands.

More...

According to CP Tottenham and Sunderland both had bids for Kelman turned down on deadline day and we also turned down a bid from a league one club for Humphrys.

 

[Spaceman Spiff]

Not a total fire sale then, just clearing the bad apples, under performers and allowing Tom Hopper to go.

Get in the two out of contract lads and I’ll be happy.

What’s going on with vassell and osadebe then? Not been mentioned by CP but all fingers seem to point to th joining very soon...

The Echo story said negotiations under way, with a hopeful view to signing them this week.

I like Stephen Humphrys, I think he has a lot more to give, although he does seem to have stamina issues. But given his psychological troubles, which means he doesn't want to head the ball or get too physical with defenders, and that's going to be worse now he's had another nose injury, then surely they should have taken the six figured sum that was offered?

I think we’ll see a better, happier Hump now that the gits have been swept out of the club. Fingers crossed.

Yeah I agree with that, wonder why Ron turned down a six figure sum for Humphrys, but let Hopper go for an alleged 150k? (Unless there were differences in their contract?). For me Hopper is by far the biggest loss in the transfer window.

That said I’m delighted that Charlie is staying

On the fence between Hopper and Cox. Think we've hung on to the best one in humps though. Maybe he doesn't have a relegation clause? Is his contract up in the summer though?
On the fillip l flip side, humps is likely to miss a few weeks I guess.

Hump's deal had a hefty % sell on clause to Fulham, Hump is 5 years younger than Hopper. maybe Sol was consulted? Hoppy had release clause and is local to Lincolnshire so maybe, despite admirable tweets, did want out?
It is a pity he has left as Hopper does appear a proper professional, well adjusted, hard working pro that we only saw part of his potential.

I hope you are right, a happier squad, unified and pulling together may bring SH to the fore. He has the attributes in spades and if he is mentally tuned for the fight he could be a match winner.

 

[Yer Blues]

Does mk think Charlie is good enough for spurs?

 

[Flinty]

sadly I think Charlie will be off in the summer especially if he hits double figures this season. A hefty fee will be involved which will pay for a new team next year

You’re such a wind up

We hung onto the best one of the lot..Kelman.
