Doubt it very much.

We aren’t selling Tav or anyone this window in my humble opinion 

 

But very well could be scouting the Croatian lads Maric & Majer for the summer if folk go out

 

Need to remember that our Scottish home grown talent limit has to be watched for Europe So might be thinking about that going forward 

 

The encouraging thing is we now have some very valuable assets on our hands, Kamara, Tav, Alfredo, Kent, Aribo for example

Dinamo Moscow are supposedly interested in Majer, might force us to go for him a bit earlier than planned. Also, can you say anymore on the Scottish player? Understand if you can’t.

Possibly as I said no idea on the Croatian lads other than same as what everyone else has saw 

 

Nothing in the Scottish guy, I was saying & my point was that’s the type of player I feel we are going for - an attacking midfielder who can make a defence splitting pass. Low budget non gamble 

 

I’m speculating 

 

Haven’t heard any names or any gossip, it’s deadly silent

I doubt any of the first team will leave this winter, but Tav to Newcastle... is there an opportunity there to finally sort out the retail deal once and for all?

I would assume that Ashley / SD and any Newcastke transfer dealings are a different kettle, even though Ashley finances the club.

 

Money such as that will essentially leave the decision with the player (or any player, for that matter), as business-wise we probably cannot afford to turn that down. At least in a position where we have cover. I know that some will disagree and say that we might earn much more if we get 55 and/or sell anyone in the summer, but it usually doesn't work that way or is as simple as that. So I would assume that we are braced for bids and have contingency plans ready.

 

As for Allan ... dunno. We have Stewart who can play such passes and be inventive himself ... if we would use him more regularly. Saying that, I haven't seen much of Allan lately ... and even in games against us.

[Frankie 8,536]

Scott Allan remains a decent player but, even if we forget his antics and former club, then I suspect the lad himself would be once bitten, twice shy when it comes to sitting on the fringes of a bigger team. 

 

Turnbull would be a better option but more costly and unlikely to be properly match fit for a while yet. And he usually plays a bit deeper. 

 

If we are going to strengthen then let's actually do that. Remove an Ojo and replace him with real quality.
