  1. Maybe, but that would only highlight how seemingly naive we were in not being wise to the work permit threshold in the first place...?
  2. But, IF we thought Sangare was better than Diallo (given he was seemingly our preferred first choice out of the two) then surely we wouldn't begrudge paying for Sangare what we're reportedly paying for Diallo (i.e. over £10m)...? Or.... as Lighthouse alludes to, maybe we preferred Diallo over Sangare all along and have used the work permit issue as a smokescreen to keep Diallo's fee as low as possible... Or... I'm over-thinking things just for a change...
  3. I'm Vinicius
  4. A possibility I guess. Also, it looks like we're going to be paying more than £10m for Diallo, who seemingly is our back up option to Sangare. Which makes Ralph's comment about not being in a position to pay over £10m for Sangare a tad puzzling, given that's exactly what we're doing for Diallo. Either Sangare was our first choice (over Diallo) or he wasn't...? Or maybe we were looking to buy both....?
  5. As others have previously mentioned, surely we knew about the £10m work permit threshold at the time we drew up our target list? So, why on Earth did we pursue someone who we knew we couldn't sign...?

  8. A bit like Ings wasn't (initially) the same after his major injuries...?
  9. At least it's an upgrade on Factless Allen

    Depends how hollow said apology is, I guess?

    Even the whiter-than-white Scottish separatists are up to it...
  13. Assume that 30 man squad will have to be whittled down to 20-something after the friendly and before the Nations League fixtures? Would imagine it being touch and go for JWP to make the cut.
  14. Apart from the £1billion worth of transfers that have taken place thus far in this transfer window...?
  15. Are you ITK? Does seem a slightly random comment not to have an element of ITK about it...

  18. I'm still disappointed they didn't get promoted last season. Would have taken the hilarity to stratospheric levels.
  19. Cheers for the insight @LeG What's your understanding of "soon"? Days? Weeks? Months? Thanks 👍
  20. Daily Express reader per chance...?
  21. Can anyone rustle up one of those attributes pinwheel/pie-chart doo-dahs for this Veerman fella? (Sorry, can't remember the website that does such things). Cheers 👍
