Pedigree or how well known they are? Considering we have been apparently going for a better pedigree of players, not many have came off for us Link to post Share on other sites

Someone there reckons 2 clubs have upped their offer for Dijksteel I think nunthorpered said we were looking at a fullback from Colchester. Maybe we dont want to get into a bidding war and have moved on. Link to post Share on other sites

And yeah we also don’t have the centre back options to do that so rule that one out It might be 4-2-3-1 sometimes, but it's wafer thin difference between 4-2-3-1 and 4-3-3 certainly when you are out of possession.

They want forward players but say their budget is in the bottom 5 of the championship. This despite the fact they sold Robinson for £8m. If they are looking for cheap in the forward positions I can only assume they were looking at Johnson. Not a bad shout, actually. Link to post Share on other sites
BoroJake 2,345 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Not sure we would let Johnson go tbh. Definitely not until we get another winger in at least Link to post Share on other sites

Downsouth 6,326 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 As mentioned before any new arrival will be too late to have any involvement in the game tomorrow so as long as we manage to get over the finishing line with new signings and departures before deadline day finishes then we can all still be hopeful. Besides deadline day itself has fast become a ritual and we do like surprises and "out of the blue" information. Link to post Share on other sites
BG93 39 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Facebook really is a thing of beauty when the MFC related pages put the rumours on that we are missing out on targets, i have to look out the window to check the world isn’t ending ? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

BearSmog 1,382 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I have a feeling (based on nothing in particular) that Dijksteel will sign at some point today (around 4pm). Link to post Share on other sites
