    Price tag put league clubs off Tshimanga, Chesterfields third bid got accepted, it was the second bid of six figures, rumored to be 150K after a 120K bid was rejected. Last season was a big one for him and it was a hit and miss year. Took him 12 starts to get his first goal, just one goal by the January window would have put a lot of clubs off him after a great 19/20. Then scored in 5 of the last 19 games.

    Far too hot and cold for 150K for a player who hasn't played at this level. Still young enough at 24 to make a jump to the league if he has a good season, but not a chance he is worth what Borehamwood wanted, for a guy who wouldn't be starting. Chesterfield are throwing money at promotion along with Stockport & Wrexham. Saw a report that there are clubs in NL with a top 10 L2 budget this season.

    They must be paying him well. Who would go to the arse end of cumbria to live. Barrow makes Keighley look like knightsbridge

    Maybe he was one of the 5 players we looked at signing but they didn't have the right attitude.

    Why are we talking about him USG , we offered him a contract, supposedly higher than Morecambe and a signing on fee, and he stayed loyal to Morecambe.

    Those thinking he was ours is akin to saying Messi was ours until PSG hijacked the deal.

    Water under the bridge!

    He's just trying to look good to the fans.

    Oh we retained a player that the huge massive Bradford City wanted....

    Whatever! :laughing:

    Do Barrow still train in the Manchester area though?. They did that to attract players at one time

    Surely Adams is wise enough to go to Sparks and Turnbull and say I need a few quality additions??
    If he isn't and is pinning his hopes on our forward line as it is then we might as well resign ourselves to league 2 again next season.

    Yes, I listened to the last one a few weeks ago with Ryan and Darragh, and there was a bit too much unnecessary effing and jeffing for my liking.

    Daft thing about it is Darragh knows his stuff with regards football no need whats so ever for his profanities, does he think because the pod cast will be listened too by football fans its acceptable

    Turnbull! I've totally forgotten about him. I don't think we've heard any words this season? From my understanding, all our new signings are chosen by Adams?

    I'm sure he already has but as he said in his post match interview last night, he isn't going to be bringing players in for the sake of it, they have to right and have to be what we need. At the moment, the players he wants aren't available. I have a strong feeling he knows exactly who he wants but is having to play a waiting game.

    2 games and he's already Pele?

    It's your knack of jumping the gun that made you look silly over Lingard. Let's hope you're not repeating your mistakes otherwise I'll repeatedly let you know ;):thumbup:

    Waiting game, yeah.

    sparks on the Hard Truth podcast was saying he thinks it’ll be loan additions and we are waiting for the domino effect when players further up the pyramid fall out of favour and look to move on etc
