New thread.

The solution to the first cryptic (1 in 10) was correctly guessed by several posters who thought it was pretty simple (as are some of you) and just that we've heard that there was signing due within ten days.

Well, that one didn't work out too well did it? :D Zero for one on the cryptics.

But at least it makes those (banned) members who think we twist cryptics to suit look like the ****s they actually are.

If any of you want to get all shitty about it actually being a cryptic or give it the big boo-hoo why bother, then feel free. I'm on zero tolerance with ****s anyway so in for a penny............

I’m just adding here that anyone who’s banned from here needs to stop PMing us to claim ignorance of the rules. It’s getting ridiculous and if we ignore them they just get more whiney.

The solution is to read and follow the rules in the first place.

Minor detail, but if this is minded on those already banned (and whining/PM'ing), they won't actually be able to read it in here I guess?

Thanks A&C!
Shame the cryptic didn't work out, but the Transfer Window is still open, signings will come. The good News is you can reset the cryptic and use it again :cautious:

There's nothing stopping you from logging out and reading this thread as a guest (90% sure on that, could be wrong)

Eh? You don’t need to be logged in to see this. Plus it’s more a warning to future people who are banned (hint: after the last few days, that’ll be a fair few of you).

I'd make 'em pay a one time only fine (hefty) to get back in Rob (to benefit you and the site). After that, no more leniency.

There were initial ‘interest’ inquires re Barrios. No bids was ever made, but talks to find out the lay of the land etc. This is common amongst ALL clubs. The club who has the player then leaks it for their own benefits, as do the agents.

I have explained before about the Grealish situation. They want all agreed sale upfront. Without compromising myself; this is a no-go for 98% of clubs, and that’s not how deals work. Player, agent and family wants us, and has no interest in talking to anyone else. I believe it will get resolved pretty sharpish, for reasons we are all aware of.

Funnily enough Yanited have not firmed up in declining engaging about Martial. That could be a long one. A cut off will come when we pursue other targets.

We have agreement in place for a midfield player from abroad. I do not know when it will get announced. No major guesses needed as the name is out there causing discussions. Personally speaking; if we follow through on the agreement, as the player in question is keen, it is likely to happen at the latter stages of WC, or the end.

Nice tasty bunch of info to start the week with, cheers Herc (y)

Hopefully Grealish doesn’t drag much longer and Utd come to their senses quickly on Martial.

Assume this is Andre Gomes.
