Summer 2020 Transfer Window

[guest3355]

PANIC PANIC PANIC.

[TheShoeArmy1897]

Decent shout from Twitter that its Kwame Thomas. Released by Doncaster, was on loan at Burton in January

Also on another note.. Shoemaker saying its the 'cobblers way' to sign nobodys and no thought..
Pierre was sold on for a fee and we signed a Sc***horpe reserve nobody who we just sold for 1.5m
Just give it a rest for one second and let the club do some working. Moaning is unbearable

The owners have also bankrolled the club through the longest ever period of zero match-day revenue, as well as meeting the extra costs of COVID testing etc. What's more, they've held their ground on the Goode sale and risked missing out on a substantial transfer fee in the process, just to make sure we got value for money. Lastly, they've had about 5 and a half hours to do anything with the Goode money - what were you hoping for?

I'd love to see some signings too, but making out that anyone is creaming off the top right now is way off the mark.

Great post,

Jonah Shoemaker and Jonah Manwork must be the same Posh supporter because of their relentless negative sniping of NTFC.

THEY ARE DEFINATELY NOT COBBLERS SUPPORTERS!!!

Boring.

I sure the Goode transfer was a complete surprise  
I find it hard to believe that we haven’t got people lined up knowing the Goode money was coming.
Let’s wait and see, 3 weeks until the season starts.

Hahahahahahahaha ive battled the posh on the Oundle Road many a time pal.

Virgil Gomes??

Gomes or Gomis is an French 20/21yr Academy player (fwd) retained by Notts Forest. Has the attributes beloved by KC. May mean a loan deal!
In this instance not a 'negative' shout but potential realistic target!

Take it you will shut up now then.

I've no idea what the fascination is with Peterborough and there supposed amazing transfer strategy. There is no denying that have been better than us is picking up players for cheap and selling them for money. But there haven't been that many. I challenge you to name 3 in the last 5-8 years.

Off the top of my head

Gayle
Assombalonga
Marriott
Conor Washington

If we can't get Morton back, would John Marquis fancy it? Not setting the world alight at Pompey...

Woody does get some things wrong or has infrequent judgement failure; as mentioned before his pin up girl Jacinda has let him down!

[Shoemaker]

To be fair KC has come out and basically said earlier today that we will be shopping at Lidl and not to expect any proven signings  

It follows the same old pattern

1) get promoted
2) make a big hullabaloo about promotion and push a big season ticket campaign to get money in the bank citing a cut off date before prices increase.
3) wait for the cut off point to pass
4) sell the best players
5) point out to fans that we won’t be making any quality signings....

NOTHING EVER CHANGES

Judging by KCs interview today who actually has any faith that we will be starting the season with the quality needed for a league one campaign?

In fact does anyone think we could start the season with a weaker one than the play off winning squad??

Now the money has been paid by the mushrooms it doesn’t seem likely.....

[Manwork04]

Take it you will shut up now then.

Nah 

[Welly Cobb]

It might well just be because of numbers of what we have available, but interesting that Chukwumeka played for the U-18s and Ballinger and Johnston played for the first 11. I wonder if it's a coincidence or an indication of where they are in the pecking order.

Marquis would be fantastic, think his wages would be a big problem though.

It was a fair reply, I forgot about Marriott! Still doesnt answer the question that if they are so good why are we are still in the same division. They are a strange club to idolise and some of you seem to

You'll have to explain the Jacinda point though

[Coolcat]

Is that what the Trust have started calling him?
Resorting to name calling really isn't necessary!

Ballinger & Johnston are first year pro's. Chukwumeka is still in the academy.

[Welly Cobb]

Ah, I thought they all signed together at the same time as first years. Is Caleb just on the official site because he's made the bench then?

Anyway, it is categorically not Kwame Thomas, James Heneghan who was at the game confirmed it wasn't him.

We will sign some first-time names with money, maybe one or two will be players people know and rate, and we'll also have some nobody signings and maybe pick one or two promising trialists on short-term deals as well. They won't all by players we spend money on, and they won't all be trialists either, people maybe need some perspective that the reality is going to be somewhere in between the extremes here.

He scored 14 goals in all comps and was their leading goalscorer, not to mention he set them back around £2m last summer so we'd be well and truly priced out of that.

As was said Ballinger and Johnston are technically pros now having signed contracts over the summer... Though the main thing I noticed was according to the chron the youth team had 12 players on the pitch!
