Summer 2022 : Transfer Window Rumours and Discussion

If the saddo Twitter accounts were even right 50% of the time we’d have a squad capable of winning the league

At the start of the window it was annoying, now it’s just some much needed positivity even though we know it’s fake

Aye best fake account was that one @Warton PNE sorted can't remember his name now lots of them about on Twitter

It’s a non-starter, we won’t pay the transfer fee and we can’t afford his wages - apart from that……

Plus you missed out the fact we already have enough strikers who don't bloody score. Don't need to pay for another one.

Just play maguire and save on the fees

Personally think Wells would be a very good signing. Don’t understand the negativity around him.

Really? He's got 14 goals in his last 83 games. 11 of them were in the 20/21 season.

I know he found game time hard to come by with Martin/Weimann and Semenyo there but he's not exactly prolific. Stinks of another Sinclair to me.

Wells game was all about utilising his pace and getting behind defences.

He’s 32 and has struggled for game time at a club who finished 17th last season. His main qualities will have naturally declined and will further deteriorate.

I guess it all depends on what the ambitions of the club are. I thought we wanted to make a push towards the play offs which, if it is, will not be achieved if we’re considering Wells as one of our main outlets for goals.

Pretty sad indictment of where we are at a club. Would’ve been absolutely perfect here

Really intrigued to know what the fee is for him. If it’s under £2m then I think he should’ve been one guy we tried to actually spend money on while the rest be freebies and loans.

Yeah but if Sunderland are in for him as well, he’s probably going there, isn’t he? Even though they’ve just come up, we’re not as big a draw as them.
 
Not keen on Wells but it’s clear Lowe wants an older, experienced head up front in a different mould to Evans.

Not sure Bristol City will part without a fee, even if they do get his wages off the bill.

That said, what incentive does Wells have to come? He’s not OOC and will be taking a huge wage drop.

Why have half the fanbase decided to put Ghanaian flags in their Twitter handles? All that for a rumour with very little basis?

Do we just have a very strange set of fans, or are we just that deprived of real hope?

It’s setting up beautiful piece of marketing (if it comes off) to be fair.
Just imagine a mundane tweet about day 4 of training by Preston North End FC 🇬🇭

I see he's a 'jorno', born and 'bread' in Cork, who spells (Nottingham) Forest 'Forrest'.
Highly reliable, I'm sure🙄
