Summer Transfer Window

[magicdaps10]

With reasonably low transfer fees, agents normally negotiate the wages upwards. I think we were prudent to keep our budget for positions of need.

This guy may turn out to be good, but the step up to the championship is a big one.

Same gamble with all our signings so far except for Burgess.

Hull City are firmly in the race to sign both Lewis O'Brien and Louie Barry from Premier League opposition, while they remain keen to bring in striker Oli McBurnie.

Talks have been underway with Nottingham Forest over a move for O'Brien for a number of weeks, as revealed by Hull Live, but the financial package required to get the deal done remains a stumbling block.

City are in discussions with Forest over both a loan and permanent deal for the 26-year-old midfielder, who has a contract at the City Ground until next summer, though suggestions of a £5m deal are thought to be wide of the mark according to sources involved in negotiations.

O'Brien is believed to be keen on moving to the Tigers, which would also enable him to be closer to his West Yorkshire home, but he is not the only option the club have in that area of the pitch. City are believed to have a player on their radar based in Europe who is also in discussions and could arrive instead, with owner Acun Ilicali and head coach Sergej Jakirovic heavily involved in those talks.

Hull Live saying their sources at the club are saying that 5m is wide of the mark and the cost of the overall package even without that inaccuracy is a stumbling block. So Hull seem to be where we are. ie This is gonna cost too much and Forest and possibly O'Brien need to drop their demands.

Like Fulton, LOB could just sit it out for a year, and leave on a free

I guess this makes the Fisher situation different.

Connah’s Quay Nomads have recruited Kit Margetson from Swansea City after a gap was left at the Essity Stadium following George Ratcliffe’s return to Barry Town United.

Margetson will line up against his older brother Ben, who plays for Barry Town United.

Not especially, Kit only saw a place on the bench last season because he happened to have been one of the players who travelled with the first team squad to get some experience when Darling got his infamous hotel injury. Froome and Fisher would both be ahead of him in the first team pecking order so Kit going out on loan was perfectly reasonable.

F..k me we’re talking about an average championship player, what some people see in him is baffling.
