May as well get going with this since with Sullivan at the helm, season ticket renewals slow, and the football vacuum to commence, this will soon be all the "news" there is.
Can Potter and MacCauley pull multiple rabbits out of the hat, or will Sullivan 'try really hard' with all of them before grabbing a few aging bargains from Big Willie Salthouse?

Part 1: 1st June to 10th June

We could all hear how nervous she sounded on Talksport and they actually went easy on her causing her no issues. Couple that with the "we are on the floor with cilit bang" quote and you start to get the impression they are shitting it. They've seen long paying loyal fans/customers walk away at the end of the season refusing to return and it all looks to be getting to hot for them now. Fucking great stuff.

It takes us bidding for 10 different players to get one, rather than identifying one person and getting a deal done like other clubs
Takes weeks to buy, took him 2/3 days to sort the Kudus sale.

Its all just a smokescreen so less fans turn up with burning pitchforks on friday evening
If we get a result you can bet there won't be as many reported bids next week

And still they feed Steinberg relentlessly with Transfer info to prove they're doing all they can. On to your 6th set of Ann Summers knickers and pants Sullivan/Kaz?

Friday night live on Sky against Chelsea is definitely giving me impromptu Burnleyesque vibes..

Steinburg reporting that we upped our Fernandes at Soton bid from £28m up front and £2m add ons to £30m up front with £2m add ons
And no i am not taking the piss, he is actually reporting that, wish there was a massive fuck off sullivan tifo planned for friday eve or some sort of protest.
If this is correct, Sullivan is a fucking timewasting clown. All this is is a 'we tried' scenario unfolding before us at the end of the window, before we get someone cheaper in who has 'some' of the right attributes but isn't what we actually, desperately, need. This is why we are so fucked under these shysters.
Clearly there's no serious intent to go out and get the manager the player he wants and all of us are begging for. What does Sullivan think is going to happen if he keeps going down this road? Championship here we come. There is still time to pull us out of this, if he actually chooses to. If he doesn't have the money then just say he doesn't have the money. Meanwhile Alvarez is going to walk out the door with us getting fuck all in return to help replace him. We've made a net gain in transfers this season when we really need to be going the other way.
It's embarrassing doing business like this. It's from the Alan Partridge school of haggling. Southampton are going to just refuse to deal with him if he keeps wasting their time, which is probably deep down what he's waiting for them to say so he can keep the money in his pocket.

Like other clubs, Forest generated a big profit on player sales in 2023/24 - Johnson and a few others. Gave them quite a lot of PSR headroom. Plus they probably have more ambitious owners to ensure cash flow is not a problem
They have a complete nutjob as a owner, who is driven to be at the top. Had a taste of it last year, now got Europe and wants more. Geezer is dodgy as anything, loads of history around it....but all he does is to compete and win. The Gibbs-Whtie saga proved that.
Sullivan just wants cash and to finish 17th. Oh and to sell one of our best players to Spurs.
'So fuck off Brady and Sully, where's the fucking money? It's all lies lies lies!!'

We don't have the money for a decent young prospect nor would they come to us.
Akanji as a stop gap for a few seasons makes sense, he is a very good player and use to playing in a back 3. He plays on either side and is of real quality.
I am surprised City are considering getting rid of him to be honest.
For a reasonable fee it would be a great signing for us, so of course it won't happen. But just another example of how it isn't really that hard to do some decent business.
Yup, It's not what you want in terms of age but Akanji is absolutely better than every CD we have at the club. He would be a good stop gap buying some time to get in some youngsters for the future or just retooling. I hate the short termist view of it and that he'd likely have fuck all resale value, but I don't mind as long as the board actually commits to long term development and progress and commits to buying young players to replace him in a couple of years, and the shower we currently have in that position.
Still, won't happen. If we get a veteran CB it'll be someone fucking atrocious and 3-4 years older through good old Salty.

Akanji another cast-off that's over 30. Thought we were supposed to be significantly lowering the age of our Squad? That would be the 2nd over 30 to arrive if he did.

Man CIty open to selling Akanji, i'd be all over that for us
Jonathan Rowe also on his way out of Marseille, can play up top or on the wing again would be good for us

In response to the weekend's dressing room mash up Cock Piss is dropping Fullkrug on Friday for CUNTING FUCKFACE.
Exploring options to out him. That's why the sudden noise regarding Vardy.
