I'm not the one telling people I'm hearing from people at the Club to say they won't be signing though am I. That was you, Bullshitting


Listen & listen good...

The players that were out of contract were told initially earlier this season that the club would revisit the contract situations in January - i couldn't give a monkeys chuff if you believe that or not.
Roberts even came out in the press saying basically that nothing was on the table as yet - some weeks ago.

I posted - saying so, but also Jenkins was the best bet of getting it done.
Good post you responded

And so it happened that way with Rodon.
Grimes & Fulton are non expensive extensions comparatively

DJ & CR are a level above with stock rising weekly.

We'll see if we get them signed - nobody wants them to go!!

One to sort next summer then.


The board gets pilloried for letting contracts run that late - Rightly so.

Sort it now......as important to Potter as any new signing - not losing DJ especially on a low fee. I wonder if Hull are due any compensation also?

This is what you said mate.....

These rumours were rubbished when first out, people accused of being overly negative.

Keri Rodon has retweeted the Sun article.

Heard this again last night, No realistic offer or increase for both players on table.!!!!!!!!!????!!!!????

Dyer & Routledge no longer under consideration due to appearance clauses, Same Narsingh.

I think we still owe Hull for appearances from the original agreement/tribunal but I've not heard anything about a sell on fee (beyond the normal nominal solidarity payments).

It wasn't bullshit. No realistic offers - things obviously changed very quickly - that's football. I had heard that on the 23rd

Why would Keri Rodon retweet it if an acceptable deal been agreed?

Dyer Routledge Narsingh?

I am thinking more as development compensation for his early years?
At the time i think there was a set payment for Academy signings - top level was around £133k - but unsure if that includes future historical development fees.

Nobody's interested in the other 3 here. We're talking about our youngsters and the stuff you're making up.

Do you have any idea how negotiations work? The Club has to be careful with
Roberts' agent, that's clear to see. Jasper, do you know who that is?

But there's been talks for months between club and youngsters and you're not qualified to decide what's realistic or not.

What wasn't realistic last season or seasons before is that Connor would be a first team regular playing for his country. He can't believe it himself and is trying to cash in when he can.

I don't blame him too much but he's got to be sensible and hey, realistic, or he could be another with huge regrets in the game when he looks back.

But all that doesn't change the fact that your scaremongering was Bullshit.

Without a separate clause in the transfer I think it's something like 5% of the transfer fee spread around all the clubs he's been at up until 21 on a pro rata basis (he came here at 16/17 so ~2% of any fee received would go to Hull).

In relation to his 5 changes every game??

It was pal. Facking pathetic. And it came to a head in the first half against Blackburn.

And then what's happened since? Settled team, star players picked, a bit of momentum can now be built.

You threw him under a bus. And at Villa.

He was looking after a very young squad getting up to speed with a new division.
Unbelievably he knows more than you. Trust him.

You are not interested in the reason the 'other 3' and why they are not available for selection?

This thread is a great example of selective reading & confirmation bias.

Article quotes Roberts as being focussed on his football for Swansea and Wales. That he has agents sorting out his off-field arrangements.

Article quotes Potter saying that a deal is close with Roberts and that everyone wants the same thing.

Posters on here somehow read the above as "He's clearly off in January then"

Morons.

It pays to be a bit cynical in football sometimes. Connor was one of 3 players to go in front of the cameras from the Wales camp. That doesn't happen without an agent (with ties to the Welsh setup) having his say.

Timing is everything.

I wouldn't blame any fan constructively criticising anything to do with football, or getting angry or pissed off.

But there always needs to be a valid reason and fairness. Bump my posts up and you'll see they were bang on the money. He had to change formation twice in the first half against Villa and Blackburn.

That's him making mistakes and un-necessarily so.

If you applied the same balance to this bullshit angle you're trying to go down, you'd say the same.

It's not me disliking Potter far from it, I'm full square behind him and wouldn't want any other manager out there right now in our situation, but that's not going to stop valid critique when necessary. And it was.

Of course I'm not. We aren't talking about them and they're not in the clubs plans, it's irrelevant to what we're discussing.

I hope Giggs and his cronies aren't tapping the Championship players to look for Premier League football.
Southgate effectively ruined Mawson (I mean his attitude as I didn't rate hm as highly as some) for the second half of last season.

Connor is with the Distinct Agency with Sonny Coleman.

They also represent Chris Coleman, John Hartson and Gareth Thomas (He used to be a director of the company)

You don't have any balance - on anything you post - whatever the subject.
Its your guesswork - & agree - or toys out of the pram. Usually with some slang usually thrown by 16 year olds.
My using the word Nonce today - just a taste of what you give out.

I think that Potter is the best thing that has happened to us in a years - he is brave, and making (unpopular) decisions that protect his squad - and he is clearly willing to learn on the job (eg Goalkeepers)
Step back & enjoy what is going on - give yourself a week before battering him in future

See the picture - embrace the challenge. Reduce the coronary risk.

No mate. He was making mistakes in his unnecessary rotations.

Nothing wrong with voicing an opinion on that.

Now making up nonsense about what you've heard from Joe Bloggs is an altogether more worrying scenario.
