Summer Transfer Window

[K23]

Josh Windass leaving Wednesday on a free due to not being paid. Worth a punt for free?

 

[Ringwood]

Best idea for Forest if they sell him next best loan him out

For LOB..staying put a Forest from a financial perspective or putting himself out on loan on the same wages putting himself in the shop window.

I agree paying his full wages is a no go for me

Absolutely not!

That's got Wrexham wrote all over it.

We need to be aiming higher than Josh Windass now.

Agreed.

Hull had to pull out of the McBurnie deal due to the wages involved.

They didn't pull out of the deal, they were told by the authorities that they were not allowed to pay the wages that the two parties agreed on.
30k a week

We shouldn’t entertain him either if that’s the case. I’ve no interest in having him back - there must be younger , better and cheaper on the continent

Fair enough deal collapsed either way, wouldn’t be spending 30K a week on him.

This is why teams like Hull get into financial difficulties in the first place. Will they ever learn?

I think we're still one or two quality signings away from mounting a serious challenge this season, so I hope there is still a lot going on behind the scenes.

What's coming out it sounds like there will be a couple more. I do think we need another striker and someone to compete with Tymon.

Centre half who can play LB or vice versa.
Central Midfielder
Striker as soon as we move on Yates

That would be a backwards step, for one thing he is 31 and another thing is that he has a worse scoring record than Jerry Yates.

I hope you're right because we're still short in key areas.

Magic Daps has it about right I think - those are the areas that still need strengthening.

We need those three players in those positions in through the door soon, otherwise we're still going to be short heading into the new season.

It could be that the remaining targets on our list are only going to move later in the transfer window.

Players like O'Brien, who clearly aren't wanted at their current club but the club wants as much money as possible for them, or the player is waiting for a better contract offer. Or out of contract players who are holding out for a better offer from a club.

If we want a young PL player on loan, they usually don't happen until the clubs have finished their pre-season tours and decided which youngsters are going to be part of their first team squads and which aren't, freeing the latter up for loans.

There's also players who the club are aware will become available, but the selling club needs to buy a player first. Or we need to sell a player before being able to make the signing. The transfer market is often described as a set of dominoes waiting for the first one to fall and that does seem to be pretty accurate.

TL;DR - it wouldn't be a surprise if any other signings come towards the end of the transfer window.
