Hopefully we can stop worrying about Rúben come 11pm tonight.

Lot of talk about Tshimanga going today, let's hope so.

Listening to LW today I think he is hinting that RR will go at the end of the season, although he does not specifically say he won't leave today.I

Can't blame him really, he is 26 so ought to be getting to the top of his career. Let's hope that L2 next season would keep him here.

And yes, let's hope Tshimanga goes today.

Tshimanga to Birmingham gaining a lot of traction now, local journalists reporting to “fully expect him to be a BCFC player by this evening” huge loss for them and can only be good news for us

The word coming from Chesterfield is Tshimanga is in Birmingham now and the deal is pretty much done. Chesterfield reporter saying they expected this, and already have a replacement in mind. Alfie Rutherford is the name being mentioned on Twitter.

Not sure on Tshimanga. If he's still the player he was before his bad injury last season, he's way too good for the NL. I can't help but think of Jimmy Spencer, who came back from his long-term injury only half the player he was before.

Interesting update, i have been told the fee is agreed but the 2 clubs can't agree on the structure of the payment. Birmingham want to pay in instalments but Chesterfield still owe Boreham Wood money themselves, so they want an up front fee. Chesterfield aren't happy as they feel Birmingham are messing them around, as initially they agreed to pay upfront. They're now accusing Birmingham of 'moving the goalposts'

Surely they could just furlough him?

Touché haha. It's going to be interesting as it seems Birmingham are threatening to walk away from this deal, which tbh Chesterfield clearly wouldn't mind. If i'm being honest part of me is happy that Chesterfield aren't just rolling over, and allowing it to be on the other clubs terms.

Firstly, I hope he does go. If he's out of our league, it's one less weapon for them.
Just saw a twitter rumour regards Ruben. Salford making a record breaking bid for him???
Roll on 11 pm!
