S-Clarke Posted 1 July, 2011 Share Posted 1 July, 2011 As with Charlie Adam though, nothing to stop a rival bid being accepted! Think Man U came in for him this morning tbf Clubs have had long enough to bid for him, Burnley want him but obviously don't have the money. The fact we've annouced it makes me believe we're almost there. I'd be totally devestated if he signs for someone else now, and it'll show why the club needs to keep quiet until it's 100%!!!.

Saint Charlie Posted 1 July, 2011 Share Posted 1 July, 2011 It might be Adkins way of saying to Cork, 'Look, I know you want to go to Burnley but we really want you and are the only team wanting you enough to stump up the money. Come here, we are going places.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_Jonny Posted 1 July, 2011 Share Posted 1 July, 2011 It might be Adkins way of saying to Cork, 'Look, I know you want to go to Burnley but we really want you and are the only team wanting you enough to stump up the money. Come here, we are going places.' Yep this is what I was thinking. I was also thinking what would eddie howe have said to Cork about Mr.Cortesse?

Saint Mikey Posted 1 July, 2011 Share Posted 1 July, 2011 Yep this is what I was thinking. I was also thinking what would eddie howe have said to Cork about Mr.Cortesse? Seriously?

S-Clarke Posted 1 July, 2011 Share Posted 1 July, 2011 Yep this is what I was thinking. I was also thinking what would eddie howe have said to Cork about Mr.Cortesse?

Saint_Jonny Posted 1 July, 2011 Share Posted 1 July, 2011 Seriously? Why should that matter to a player?! I am continually amazed by this forum, I really am. If a manager of another team wants a player that we are after, he is going to say whatever he can to convince the player that his team is the one to go for and ours is not. Eddie Howe obviously had issues with us, as did his former employer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, and what a very good signing if true! Young, English player who enjoyed his time with us a few years back and has an excellent attitude.

Big_Bald_Si Posted 1 July, 2011 Share Posted 1 July, 2011 Still on Jordan Sibley's twitter feed. I feel we've been a lot more open about potential transfers than we have been, confirming the bid for Sharp, no bids for Ox and the only club to have had a bid accepted for Jack Cork. JC would be a great signing imo - come on Jack, get on the bus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, by saying we have agreed a fee with chelsea, it is showing our intent. Kind of masks diappointment of player not signing by showing that we are in for players!

SaintBobby Posted 1 July, 2011 Share Posted 1 July, 2011 Seems the club has abandoned the strategy of only announcing deals when they are 100% done and dusted, which I'm happy with. However, I thought the issue on Cork was wage demands not the transfer fee, so here's hoping that we can still complete the transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come here, we are going places.' This is kind of the way I had interpreted the statement, particularly as he didn't go on to say anything about being due to meet him for talks (from the Tweets I've seen anyway). The stuff on the Chelsea forum is encouraging, though, so hopefully it's NC has let NA spill the beans as it's all about to be wrapped up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
