Transfer Update

[KPie]

Nope, outfield player, generally on the left side, went to a club higher up the league than Mansfield

Nicky Cadden or Jonathan Panzo are my guesses.

Cadden ain’t local he’s Scottish he’s at Barnsley these days

'Measured ambition' is a very apt description IMO and a world away from Pete and others previous contention that the owners are unambitious and happy to stay at this level.

I too doubt the fees are very high but they are still fees to acquire targets identified by #theradar, and not just on one or two players. That combined with the rumoured "very decent wages" is a pleasing and required statement of intent.

Get your facts right sunshine. There is nothing "rumoured" about what i posted. To be honest, what they offered I would expect from a club of Notts size & the gates we have been getting. The signing to me wouldn't really show ambition, relation or not.

I have no facts to get right lol as I don't know the 'facts' hence why I said rumoured. They are rumoured to me and I estimate the vast majority of fans.

Ahhh the Notts gates , yes still very impressive regardless of the scaremongers.

I'm not on about signings we haven't made or missed out on. I don't care who they are unless they actually sign. I'm on about the fact we are offering and playing rumoured good wages, we are paying transfer fees for multiple players to obtain their services.

Add to the fact we didn't sell when we had offers for our key players and the owners haven't sold.

Based on the above do you still view the owners as unambitious brothers who are happy for Notts to stay at this level? Or has any of the above changed your opinion at all?

I know who it is and it would obviously have been an ambitious move for a club in our league.

Only thing that doesn’t really add up is us wanting to shift people to get him in. I wonder whether he was lined up as a possible replacement for Roberts or Rodrigues, but they now look like staying. It’s not exactly a position we need someone unless they move on.

Well if they do which I hope they do we need to get them on new improved contracts with a transfer fee clause next summer, even if it’s only 300k it would be a good idea for both sides

I'd say we are talking about 2 different players. I wouldn't call it "ambitious" unless you class signing a league player that.

Pete,

Are the owners showing 'measured ambition' or should they still be classed as unambitious as they were labelled last season?

No, I don't think we are ambitious, we are doing nothing different to what most clubs do in close season.
Infact I'll bet you we don't go up this coming season. You like a bet, £500 say?

PM me his initials & I will tell you whether we are talking the same player, if you want to
