I use an ancient bit of software called CDex that still works well for me. Pretty straightforward interface but a decent range of options too. https://cdex.mu/download

He was 32 million (with 8 mil in add ons) which makes him our 7th most expensive player of all time. Negotiations are "complicated and on standby" which means we've gone back and said he'll cost them a fucking fortune. You don't have to be angry about absolutely everything, its pretty normal for teams to want to sign high performing players.
-
Is it? I’m sure a load of our players are attractive propositions to a lot of clubs, but to hear (from nowhere) of offers coming in for a young lad who we bought for relatively fuck all, and apparently them being considered smells of Mr Mitchells trading style.
-
An absolute prick. But fair play, he blazed a trail racially speaking.

Watched it over the weekend, superb stuff, acting, characters and dialogue first class.

Uriah Rennie dead at 65. Ill always remember the mental 2nd yellow he gave Shearer for backing in

Oliver Holt: "My padel date with Thomas Frank last month convinced me he's perfect for the Tottenham job."

It's already been earmarked for the lift repair

You never had to work out a notice period?
-
Its some stretch to blame our outgoing DoF for another team wanting to buy one of our players

Strikes me that "cheaper players from the European leagues" nowadays often have better options or the clubs they join just have more financial clout... Kushanov in January is just the latest one. Tosin. Etikike. There's one thing saying it but going out and actually signing these players is fucking hard for a club such as ourselves as Mitchell no doubt realised after he'd done all the work in January on a player who would've fitted us very well. So this narrative about Howe has come about based on mostly bullshit internet rumours and am not sure why anyone would repeat it tbh.. Howe won a cup and got in the champions league after a summer transfer window that even I described as a fuckin disaster. That's the principle reason Mitchell left; he didn't have any significant power at the club to mould it into his vision for how we should operate. This is to all intents and purposes is now Eddie Howe's football club, he now has nearly as much power as he had at Bournemouth. I'm fuckin delighted with that. Others feel differently, that's fine too, but I think if they feel like that they're letting the perfect be the enemy of the very, very good..

Ah, that makes more sense. -
I'm watching Due South again on YouTube atm. Still the best tv show about a Mountie in Chicago

Channel 5 is only showing a limited number of matches. The real action is on DAZN who paid €1bn for the rights which definitely wasn’t a Saudi favour to FIFA. -

I see this prestigious club world cup with all the best teams om the planet is to be televised on,,,, Channel 5. -
Unfortunate that PSR mandates that we always have to be open to selling players. It's just a matter of price. Tino and Hall are amongst the most important players to keep though. Hopefully selling Longstaff, Willock and Targett is enough for us to cover off any PSR concerns in the medium term. I'd hate for us to turn the likes of City and Liverpool away this window only to have them come back in the future when/if our finances are not so great.
-
I hope this is bullshit re Tino. Hes been immense for us, and is outatanding in both fullback positions. Weakens us and strengthens City.
-
yeah, if they want to pay over the odds we would have to consider it to help us out with psr. Every player has a price because of the bullshit regulations. It would be annoying though as we’d have to replace one of the best and most versatile fullbacks in the country on top of all the other positions we need filling. I hope it doesn’t happen. They can come back if they’ve got £90m to spend

There were rumours in January that Mitchell had cheaper European options lined up after the Guehi deal didn't go through, but Howe only had one player on his shortlist. Makes you wonder whether Mitchell leaving is because Howe had Mbuemo, Huijsen, Delap, Pedro, Elanga, Guehi and Trafford on his list this Summer rather than the cheaper players from European leagues on Mitchell's list...
-
20% goes to Birmingham iirc.
-
Good luck to them for signing anyone on the cheap after that
-
Fair play getting €38m for him, because he's looked pony whenever I've seen him play!
-
Why would this even be a consideration though? A lad who has been an integral part of a successful season, to a team that are obvious rivals? Like Fuck Off Fat Mitch stench about this mind.
