Ambitious Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I highly doubt it. I just don't think we're in this ball park for a striker, I'd also doubt Forest would be interested. Grabban needs back up, sure, but you don't spend £5m on a back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had heard they may be interested in Hector-Ingham. And they also love Marriott . Would hate to see him go back as I think he could do great at this level. A straight swap with an add on . Possibly. Can't say i'm fussed myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EraniosSocks Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 It was mentioned yesterday that a fee had been agreed with a club and Celtic was also in the running but was messing around with the fee. I remember Brentford supposedly looking at him for 15 Million. More crap from HITC it looks like ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatRam Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Highly doubt it. Everything we’ve been linked with are bargain buys. Can’t see us buying anyone that’s worth over 2 mill. It’s gonna be a very interesting window as we’ve got rid of basically everyone. i can’t imagine him selling anyone else as we wouldn’t have any depth in the team. Think it’ll be free agents and raiding lower leagues/relegated players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 There is zero chance either club will be spending that sort of money on a single player at this moment in time. Forest - gambled last season and need to offload players to meet P&S requirements for the upcoming season. Us - risky spending so much before we have the verdict from the EFL charge.Doubtful we can spend that much either way without a sale of equal value.

Millenniumram Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 This would be an absolutely incredible signing if we were able to pull it off, the bloke has a fantastic reputation as a goalscorer. It’s a trait I’m sure he’d be able to take to any level. Sadly I’m more inclined to believe @Curtains Malone thread than I am an article on HITC. I suspect £5m might be a bit too much to gamble on a player who isn’t really proven at a high level of football yet anyway, even though it looks likely he’ll be able to make the step up.

Tyler Durden Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Obviously the Mirror know we are going to escape any FFP sanctions, get a new source of funding in to bankroll this or sell someone like Marriott to finance the deal. Or it's just complete crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney1991 Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Only way this is happening if we have an imminent departure going for the same money like bogle but highly doubt we would be in running for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DcFc Dyycheee Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Would take him but doubtful we have that money to spend. Then again I thought that last summer and we went an spent £8m on Bielik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he not another 'hanging on the last man's shoulder'/goal-poacher type too (a bit like Marriott), that we're going to struggle to accommodate in a team that wants to play out from the back?

But equally, looking at his stats Toney seems to contribute more in general play than Marriott does, so I don’t think we’d see a repeat necessarily.

Anag Ram Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Don’t we get linked with every Peterborough player? 2+2= whatever our valuation of 2+2 is these days. Good player if the fairytale is to be believed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
