Mathius, Who did you hear such a rumour from ?
You quite often come up with unsubstantiated rumours and then talk about them like there facts.
The word 'unsubstantiated' is the clue.

Whilst both KvV and Crooks are unarguably talented, Crooks is another who doesn't really look like he's up for L2

I guess you pays your money and takes your choice - do you want a player who plays like a world beater in 25% of games, crap in 50% and is injured / suspended the other quarter - or one who is going to roll their sleeves up, dig in and give you 100% all the time?

I think the frustrations with Crooks are more likely to do with the burden placed upon him. He dropped so deep against MK because none of our midfield or wingbacks looked comfortable taking the ball and carrying it or playing a clever pass. He is then also expected to create further afield, that would be frustrating for anyone. This is particularly where a fit on form JJOT is a huge miss.

Crooks was clearly told by KC to drop that deep so he was only following orders. Regarding jjot with all of his recent injuries I’m wondering if he’ll ever be the same again.

In violent agreement , just about !
Crooks , Turnbull and Taylor the other big earners .
Turnbull's the only one I would really want to keep. Could be some more savings to be made in this window.

How about you use common sense and don't spout rubbish on here you know is 'unsubstantiated' and which clearly isn't true. Then people might believe you when you do have something good/actually 'in the know' to say. Jesus

Some fans are interested in speculation. I am for one. Don't press your own views on everyone else.

I don't think anybody is interested in clearly false speculation. But please, somebody correct me if they are? Hands up? No? Ok.

Don't insult people with your 'pressing' line.

Lets start a proper thread for all our January dealings in the latest transfer window.

All rumours welcome, even the ridiculous ones  Grin
For those struggling to remember how this thread was set out, please refer to the above and pay particular attention to the sentence highlighted in red. Also, refer to the title and the word 'Rumours' contained within.

Teacher's Pet can probably clarify but the tone suggests this thread is supposed to be a bit of fun. Of course it wasn't my intention to cause such great distress and I can only offer my sincerest apology to Parklands who seems so upset. I will think twice before forwarding a rumour on a rumour thread in future.

I think your posts are pretty informative Mathius and I think you may have similar sources to myself because often you are aware of things I have also been told first hand .
Some on here just don’t like it when others have knowledge they are unaware of . Quite clearly you won’t reveal your sources and neither will I but the information is always interesting .
Maybe people should remember that I think both you and I said that KVV did not want to be here as soon as he joined and that he wouldn’t move from Doncaster . I also said Austin would have little to do with him last season because he wasn’t seen to be committed to the cause.
All these things were true. G

I find this hilarious, to think that Scunny would pay 600k for a player as a league 1 club..do they have a rich benefactor that loves throwing the cash around?? I can't believe this just as much as I cant believe that we paid £400k for him last January. My guess and its just that is its nearer to us buying him for £200k tops and selling him for around the same.
