Randy Sandwich 209 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I’m just completely baffled as to why players don’t want to come and play for Pulis - it’s a complete mystery to me Link to post Share on other sites
Raf smog 651 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 So we weren't after Joe Bryan but we are after Sam Byram and he's our number 1 target? Did he end up moving anywhere today? No he didn’t but forest are still interest but there is a reason he didn’t join them today. Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,487 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 It's not quite replacing Huth Tuncay and Downing with Lita St ledger and Yates but disappointing. I just hope we have started plan B (or whatever plan we are up to) already and started negotiations on loan deals. Not yet, but we still have time to bring in the 2018 versions of Lita, St Ledger and Yeates! :) We can live in hope :). It's been a disappointing window nobody has been banned temporarily or permanently and no suspended chat. Oneboro fans have been a disappointment this window ;). Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,339 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 So we weren't after Joe Bryan but we are after Sam Byram and he's our number 1 target? Did he end up moving anywhere today? No he didn’t but forest are still interest but there is a reason he didn’t join them today. But 5 weeks ago he was our main target not Joe Bryan? I'm trying to understand some of what you've said there. Obviously without asking you where the info came from (I wouldn't ask and I wouldn't expect you to say) it's difficult for me to get my head around it. We were close to signing Chris Wood who is first choice at Burnley and they only recently bought him? We were actively shopping Traore around? It actually became public back in June that he had a release clause of £18m. It was Sam Byram not Joe Bryan that were interested in despite us apparently bidding for Bryan yesterday or maybe we actually didn't? Bryan was the name we were repeatedly linked with though not Byram and I could have sworn it was said on here that we were just waiting for the fee for Bryan to be reduced by Bristol City - which is what you say there. But now you're saying it's actually Sam Byram we're after? There's one or two things there that should certainly raise a few eyebrows actually. Link to post Share on other sites

Dynamo Kev 1,557 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 my thoughts on the window. after getting bids rejected for the millwall pair and freeman? (i think) we were rumoured to be after bolasie the right backs martina and byram to. with the bid for TLB accepted and agreed bar the agent getting greedy. we appear to be in for a winger a defender and a x2 cm again. possibly more but we can only really go off the confirmed bids we had. which were besic and the two at saville and wallace. we actually wanted: RB tonnes on links although nothing confirmed offer wise. presuming we are lol. cm besic acm saville and freeman rw wallace spurious links to a LW and a LB. for me we have done okay. we seemed to have went for our first choice possibly second choice targets and stopped. rather than keep going down the list to the point we get another dud like barragan. cant fault the club really. signing nobody is better than buying for buys sake regardless of how good or bad they are. we cant blame the club for not having perfectly reasonable bids and being rejected, because they didnt want to sell. we also cant blame the club for rejected greedy agent imo. we also cant blame the club when players are sold because they want to leave. we cant blame the club for any of the goings on this window. we had our targets that much is clear. they didnt want to join or their clubs wouldnt sell on the whole we are a bit stuck with what we can do. pulis made it clear he wanted more players, we have bid for minimum of 3 for fees and still a couple of loans to come. so he has got his way somewhat because we feed up funds to buy but as for reasons stated above pulis cant complain at the club for it failing. if we are going to lay the blame anywhere. were we after the right players. have players we should have been after been available at reasonable prices? we dont know the answer to that so cant really have a go at the club. we are all disappointed but 'it is what it is' its nowhere near as bad as some would like to make it. its nothing like under mogga or southgate when we clearly had nothing and were being outbid by wigan etc. we'll go again in January, lets get behind the lads and not moan about finishing midtable we are still way better than that. we played to high midtable teams already and scored 5 goals and have 4 points. bottom half side brum on saturday, we'll beat them to.

Raf smog 651 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 We were after Bryan from Bristol city and Sam Bryam who is now one of our main targets and has been for last few days. It was always Chris wood or Sam vokes our targets never both. Chris wood would of become available should they of bought Rodriguez but more expensive than vokes. It has always been a rumour about release clause I never once knew about it or any figure Neither did my contact funny enough doesn’t have details of players contracts . I am not here to get into a dispute just post what I am told. Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah we were and are firmly interested in him. Yes we can loan 8 players just 2 from anyone club I believe. We still want bryam but so do forest down to player now. He has patched up with Britt it was work ethic he was dissapointed in and Britt tended to side with bamford. Link to post Share on other sites
mendieta420 1,006 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 As soon as the window closed they should've been back on the phone to Everton over Besic to try and get it shoved through ASAP. Looking forward to Tony's presser tomorrow.. Link to post Share on other sites
