It’s the tea ladyThe situation has now changed slightly at this stage but unfortunately I'm not allowed to post an update to where that transfer is at.
Surely the only people who actually know that are Bouser and Scott. Maybe not even Mr Gibson or Wilder know
It does have that feel with the Greaves and Larsen bid rejectionsI thought it was interesting that the angle the Echo were pushing was the FFP one. Intimating that we have money and want to spend it but other clubs are trying to rip us off. This is five days after at least two deals were all but done.
The fact they have publically stated they have offered him a payrise, means that he and his agent didn't say yes when the offer was made. He won't start the season at that club.They are apparently offering him a hefty pay rise to try and convince him to stay. Guess we will soon know one way or the other.
Could well be that Larson is one of the ones that Wilder was alluding to, that he was here at Rockliffe, and wanted to sign, but maybe now Groningen are raising the fee after all was agreed. I suspect his agent will let Groningen know, it's over his client is leaving and Boro is his preferred destination.I thought it was interesting that the angle the Echo were pushing was the FFP one.

Hope so. Really like the look of this lad.Could well be that Larson is one of the ones that Wilder was alluding to, that he was here at Rockliffe, and wanted to sign, but maybe now Groningen are raising the fee after all was agreed.

Lot closer to Norway though - job done. Ferry from North Shields, there in about 15-16 hours. What's not to like?Wonder if he's only just found out how far away from London we are?
Impossible to sign any young footballer if you're not within spitting distance of the capital these days. Apparently
Genuine question, do you think we’ll get a striker in before deadline day?
Some crazy figures being thrown around.
If we are genuinely looking at paying 9-11mil for him I'd prefer it on Armstrong. They paid 10mil? I imagine money back would swing it.
Although wages would be an issue and he's well contracted so why take a pay drop.
Whilst I don't know Wilders thinking... I've seen nothing to suggest a 6ft 4" CF would be high on his list. That's going by him at Sheff UTD as well.
