GrimsbyBoro 1,968 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I posted the other day we are working on 3 out 3 in. slight adjustment to that and tonight I was told that we are still working on 2 more deals but need to balance the books. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

We've lost 9 games in the league all season. Dijksteel has started in 5 of those defeats (4 at right back and 1 as a centre back). In recent league games (last 6), we've lost 4 games, Dijksteel started twice in those 4 defeats, at right back. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm "balance the books" that would imply someone leaving that can generate funds? Link to post Share on other sites

If it's still 3 out, the most likely candidates given cirucumstance and rumours would be Spence, Wing, and Assombalonga in that order. Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,496 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Am still hoping for a straight swap on Britt and Diedhiou. With us saving some of britt 37k* a week wages *That figure was provided by Pulis when he said our two biggest earners were on approx 48k and 37k. And then kindly name checked Braithwaite as one on 48k. Haha. Link to post Share on other sites
BoroSmoggie 2,710 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 How much we reckon we could sell Spence for? 3-5mill? More? Less? Link to post Share on other sites

If he left now there would like as not need to be an "encouragement package" from Boro to meet the shortfall for his last contracted five or six months. He and his agent may feel that in the Summer with more Vaccines around the market may be more advantageous and stick it out. Problem then for Boro is that if the market is in a more positive state then so will prices. If SG/Boro can afford it then it might make sense to bite the bullet on a deal now and I'd guess that they are playing Poker with one or two clubs as the window comes down waiting for someone to blink.

TeaCider24 12,635 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Warnock: He said: "It would be nice to get one more attacker if I can. We were looking at midfield, but I’d rather forsake getting another midfield player in if it means I can get another attacker. "Definitely, there are one or two names that spring to mind that I probably would let go if I’ve got enough cover." So sounds like there's truth in the few in few out stuff. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

These are the 3 names I think too. And maybe a Deal for Britt going to Bristol City with Diehdiou coming here. Although I think it’s unlikely 1 Link to post Share on other sites
GrimsbyBoro 1,968 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I am guessing we would listen to offers for Fletcher, Britt, Wing and Coulson. Return Roberts and loan out Wood. As an outside punt perhaps accept a bid for Spence if it was good enough. Link to post Share on other sites

Good to see Hall back but we need to see if he can stay fit for a period longer than a month or so first before we can class him as good cover so for this reason I think Warnock will refuse a Wood loan but I could be wrong 1 Link to post Share on other sites
RichAcklam2404 929 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I see WarnocK mentioned he was looking at a midfielder, must be a CM as he would have mentioned if it’s a winger or not. Anyone reckon he’s looking to get rid of Wing and bring a replacement in? Link to post Share on other sites
GrimsbyBoro 1,968 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Wing out and Mowatt in would be good business. Think a CF is a must though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
