I read somewhere that he was on £6500 a week at Sunderland. I can't see us offering him that much. He's a good squad player but doesn't have the pace to be our main striker.Pompey55 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 11, 2022 5:07 pmLatest is that AOB isn’t happy with the deal offered and there seems to be an impasse with neither party moving, whether this is a negotiating ploy or not he says he has other offers which isn’t a surprise really.Selsey Bill wrote: ↑Fri Jun 10, 2022 7:51 pmWe HAVE offered AOB a deal, he just hasn't accepted it yet. If you look at his Insta account you will see a picture of him chilling out in a pool on holiday. He's probably sunbathing, relaxing, drinking beer, weighing up his options.Claygate wrote: ↑Fri Jun 10, 2022 11:45 amI sincerely hope we are not looking at Hylton.

Re: How many transfer deals tomorrow
Just to throw a name into the hat, how about Nile Ranger? He's certainly got a checkered past as far as his personal life goes, so would be a gamble and probably need some managing. But he is available free and has played at premiership and championship level - although not exactly prolific in those divisions!
He turned down offers at Oxford and Rochdale over the last couple of years. He says he has had two years to reflect on his past and clearly feels he only has one last chance to prove himself. Maybe he's blown too many chances in the past to be considered? But could he be worth a punt?

Re: How many transfer deals tomorrow
Comes with an awful lot of baggage, and as far as I can see hasn't scored for either Southend and Boreham Wood over the last couple of seasons in his spells there. I do actually think that the premise is sound though, find a talented player who's got a point to prove and hasn't fulfilled their potential. But would give Mr Ranger a pretty wide berth I think.RubiconCSL wrote: ↑Thu Jun 16, 2022 7:39 pm Just to throw a name into the hat, how about Nile Ranger?

Re: How many transfer deals tomorrow
I notice in The News there is an article where Danny Cowley is enthusing over his 'assets' plan. I had hoped that this idea had been curtailed somewhat, which I think it has to a certain degree. He used Bazuna as an example of what can be achieved by bringing in 'young nuggets'. He is quoted as saying "just think if we had signed him this time last year, we would be looking at a £15 million player now". Now I am not excited about the prospect of making our billionaire owners more money. I would be more excited about the club finding players that would be part of our future success. Before someone gives me a lecture on how things work I do know that if we did, in fact, have a player worth £15 million at League One level we would have a job to keep him so he would be most likely sold anyway. What I would like though is the manager trying to get players that would be worth a lot of money, because that would mean they would be good, and trying to keep them for the benefit of our own club. Being able to boast about finding 'gems' and selling them for big profits on his CV is a great for Danny Cowley, which would help to impress would be employers looking to make a bob or two, but I am more concerned about what would make my team better and successful.

Being linked the Cauley Woodrow now... So another league player... With some pedigree (minus last season).

Re: How many transfer deals tomorrow
At 27 years of age and with strike rate of 1 in 3, he would be very good signing at this level. Although I see we face competition from Ipswich and Wednesday. So highly unlikely to match their wage offers.Pompey1984+1 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 17, 2022 1:36 pm Being linked the Cauley Woodrow now... So another league player... With some pedigree (minus last season).
