Yeah he is a bit of an enigma. Defo got a touch of class about him.

He seems to shine more when we dominate teams, then go missing in tight games like v Burnley. That and his lack of mobility makes me think he'd struggle up top in the prem for us.
Agreed, the word enigma some what sums him up perfectly.

Archer deal doesn’t seem to be moving. Now being linked with Armstrong from them. Which I find utterly bizarre from their POV.

Adam Armstrong ripped this league up last year so would be a great move. Hopefully just loan though, not a permanent. Turns 28 next week so not much room for improvement for us moving forward.

Southampton forum reckon they want a hefty loan fee and 70% of his wages paid. West Brom also reportedly interested.

Of course this could all be bollocks and our recruitment team are actually just sat at their desks playing solitaire all day. Fuck knows.

Graham Smyth says as things stand we aren't signing Armstrong.

I wonder if they actually ever intended backing Farke?
As has been said, no point buying someone who isn’t prem quality and truth is as i keep harping on about i know, we have more than enough for the job, they just need to used correctly.

I’ll only believe we are signing someone when he’s spotted at Elland Rd or officially announced. I’ll also only believe we aren’t signing anyone when the window shuts and nobody been announced because history tells us that no fucker knows nothing other than those involved. Smyth, Cross and others haven’t a clue hence the reason Hay leaving his cash cow. Pope knows as much as us and retweets other accounts or copies what they say.

They all prolly get their info from Waccoe. Still though, it's all part of the fun. Track a few random planes to LBA etc. Once you track you can't go back.

We turned down a bid for X player. Straight at of the Bates playbook.
