Small monthly donation setup. Sorry it isn't more, will up it when funds permit! Thanks for all the hard work.

I set up a recurring fiver each month ages ago. I recommend others do the same.

I have also set this up and its so easy, I don't have a lot of spare cash but I don't miss it. Actually it's the best fiver I spend each month....I don't say a lot but you lot keep me entertained! Best Spurs site around so a big thanks to Rob, A&C and all the mods.

I will donate 50 - IF the mods can make us a cryptic, of who the 1st team player we missed out on was (ref JJ`s info)

 

[PerthYid]

First ever post on the site, but have been a follower for years, just made an account recently to donate £15 all the way from Australia !

Not long left now so a bit of an update from my side.
Moura...

Hoping to push this over the line today, we have everything in place and agreed. PSG had been slightly hesitant purely hoping a bigger bid from a desperate club would have come in, but other possible suitors are aware Moura is set on us.

Sess price is unprecedented for a player his age and league standing. The 50mil price quoted in the press is correct. Fulham aren't stupid though and know they won't get that as a straight up fee. It's difficult but not impossible for the Summer, will need some movement from both sides though, and a bit of creativity in how the deal is structured to keep everyone happy. With every game the boy plays his up front value increases making it very hard to strike a deal that everyone is happy with.

As I have said previously, targets are there with Summer in mind, we are trying to do them now but only if the availability is there, and there is enough value to do so now.

Not hearing anything about any permanent outs, but there could well be a couple more loans.

£15 in the pot. Enjoyable as always and thanks for keeping it going

You've already seen the answer today. £50 please

 

[nedley]

Will be a happy chappy if Moura gets over the line and if theres no significant outgoings it will be a positive winter window for once.

I personally can't see See coming. He's increasing in value every minute and the bigger boys will be swooping in the summer.

Well he asked

 

[Rob]

Well he asked

He's probably looking at it right now.

 

[BringBack_leGin]

Nice update from @Trix , would be delight if we got this done today, hopefully that means he’s be bench ready for Utd!

Great stuff Trix, thanks for the update. By over the line do you mean signed/sealed/delivered/announced?

I'll set up a donation once I get to the laptop. Kids don't need to eat EVERY day do they?

Whilst I Understand completely the delicate nature of JJ's hesitancy for disclosing the player we missed out on, cant help but wonder who it is. Does that make me buy-curious?

Can’t blame Fulham tbh He’s there jewel and players like him don’t come around often.

Nice update cheers

 

[McArchibald]

Thanks for the update Trix. Yet again we walk the tightrope between elation and despair...

£15 in as my small contribution. Keep up the good work

 

[cider spurs]

Sess...£50 million. Wow, just Wow.

@Trix. Cheers for sharing the info.

That's some crazy money mooted for RS, as Trix alluded to, think this is going to be a complex deal to get over the line.

No doubt he has ability, but i think their expectations of £50 million is circa £15 million over the top.

He's probably looking at it right now.

I'm confused, so might be missing something. Have I just jumped to an incredibly wrong conclusion, or are you saying that Sessegnon was the player JJ was alluding to?

Knew I shouldn't have started the day by inhaling carpet cleaner.

 

[thebenjamin]

are you saying that Sessegnon was the player JJ was alluding to?

Seems that way, although JJ said that player has also agreed to sign for someone else...

Great news from @Trix , thanks as always. Can't really blame Fulham for their stance, fair play to them - won't stop me being gutted if he ends up at one of the Oil Clubs though!

Now, on behalf of everyone, where is Igijedi?
