I wonder if we need the dembele deal to go through, and the 500k or so it might bring, in order to meet the demands of tshimanga or cheeke or whoever it is we are after?

Good point tt


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

It was only a couple of weeks ago that Barry Fry was saying Championship survival was worth £15m and they are willing to let his contract wind down unless someone can better their £15m valuation of him.

I’d imagine this one going down to the deadline. Clubs will want the best value as he is in the last year of his contract so could leave it last minute when Posh might get a bit desperate to get some money for him before he leaves for free. Yeah Fry said that he might get a new contract if there’s no bids but I imagine this is a bit of mind games in trying to force clubs hand as there’s been no talk of staying from the Dembele camp. Interesting that Celtic/Rangers are said to be interested, and they can actually negotiate with him in January to get him on a free next summer so might bide their time. Also noticed that Peterborough signed Poku from Colchester who’s a winger, potential Dembele replacement?

Say what you like about Peterborough and Barry Fry in particular, but you can’t really question their business model.

The Peterborough model is one a lot of clubs should aspire to. If we have ambitions of reaching The Championship ever again, it's the only way little old Grimsby could compete.

Remember Barry Fry in a documentary of his time at Birmingham City, he had it in his contract that he got a percentage of all, both in and out, transfers, he was in giggles when he said he bought player X on Monday, received his percentage, the sold him on Friday, and also received his percentage.

The deadline applicable to the EFL (and therefore Dembele) is 31st August. I too think this will go to the wire, but he will go in my opinion - probably for somewhere between £2.5m and £3m, which would equate to £500k to £750k for Town.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

We do, it's just a bit more sensible like the old days. Like the EFL, we can sign anyone who is a free agent as of the window slamming shut. We can't make permanent transfers or long-term loans but we can loan people in for upto 3 months with clubs in the EFL can't do.
