I think it would set a precedent that they dont want to use in the future.

Let's hope they see sense, certainly dont expect them to give us the win but if that "part game" is in there then its a perfect chance to use there own rules.

Losing battle unfortunately.

No other outcome other than a complete re-play of the game.

Aren't they both under The Unique Sports Group agency? Along with Ismael?

Although to be fair I'm sure they have loads of clients.

If he's knocked back Birmingham with there huge budget and he lives in the midlands due to his time with Wolves last season, I'm not sure why he would entertain coming here.

All part of the plan.

Fair enough.

We absolutely need two of that four, I just don't see them happening this late.

Be amazed if any of those 4 join now.

Ismael seemed to suggest we were done after the game yesterday.

Think Leonard to Peterborough is off either way.

Soumano and Gudjohnson looks like we won't meet the fee, and Smit isn't for sale.

All lining up to be a damp squib of an end to the window.

Seems a bit late in the day for two strikers and a midfielder through the door.

Saw someone say we're going in with a second bid for Soumano on X but can't remember the name of the journo and can't find it now!

Don't think he would qualify for a ESC place.

Can't help but feel this will end up like the Kapaudi chase.

Yeah fair enough, seen they hadn't agreed a fee but had agreed personal terms, which even though I imagine that happens regularly isnt the correct way to go about things!

Only a year left on his contract too.

Looks like he's going to Widzew Lodz according to Rudy Galetti.

All the respected Polish journos seem to think its around 1.7-2m which is a lot like you say.

If it is that kind of fee, I just dont see us going to £2m for Afolayan too.

Ideal world we would bring him and Afolayan in, don't think the cash will stretch to both though?

I imagine Japanese lad is being bought in to play on the wing.

Nearly 28, £2m and other clubs interested.

I just don't see this happening unfortunately.

Baradji will be a waste of time.

Need players who can come and hit the ground running now, not ones who might need an op in a few weeks.

Miyoshi on the bench for his club today, doesn't feel like one is close by any means.

Would also affect his ESC status if he comes on too.

Guessing we can forget about this one.

I imagine if it has taken this long then we have probably moved on.

Need to sign him before he plays in a Budesliga 2 game as if he does, he would need a ESC place which we don't have.

Local journo saying we have backed away from Baradji now with signing the Swede.

Plus, unless they ship out the young lad Mafoumbi we have no ESC spots to use for him either.

Forshaw will still be 4/5th choice by the time Trav and Buckley leave.

They could do that.

Don't see anyone taking him though.

Although indont suspect it would cost much to pay up his contract for the next two years and send him on his way.

Is it possible they sign Baradji, give him his op, and then register him in January when one of Toth/Kargbo can be converted from an ESC place so freeing one up then?

As things stand we only have 1 left and both Baradji and Henriksson would need one.

Is he not injured for a couple of months, hence dropping interest in him a few weeks back?

His replacement signed a few weeks ago.

Kapaudi going to Anderlect according to Sacha Tavolieri. 1.5m euros, so does make you wonder what we were messing about at if true.

Someone like that Miller at Hibs (not him obviously) that can slot in equally as good at RB and CB would be ideal.

I think it's the fee more than anything.

The Hull lad would be less than half the price of Kapuadi I'm guessing?
