We are just developing Clarke for them when we could develop Panzo as our future player Money? Cash flow has been hammered by COVID at every single club.

I'm inclined to believe we haven't gone for this guy, mainly because I'm not entirely sure how much money we indeed have and secondly, the last 2 signings we've made were confirmed as definitely happening by the likes of Percy within a few hours of us hearing the first rumour - which is a sea change in the information leaving the club.

I think the last few years we've quietly gone about our business and then 2 days prior to signing we hear "xxxxx is having a medical" These days I assume anything which doesn't come from a source 'close' to the club or drags on for more than 2 days is nonsense generated by agents to try and get a better deal for their player / get a move / some kind of logic play by bored journos with nothing to write about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACKWORTHRAM Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I said this at the time. That Ryan Conway just went with a rumour started by the French Reporter. "Sources have told @TheAthleticUK that #DCFC have touched base with Monaco and England Under-21 defender Jonathan Panzo. All remains informal at this stage but believed they’ve made their feelings clear that they like the player." So Derby just rang up Monaco and said we like Panzo? I guarantee you that he saw that French reporter tweet and just went with it. Made up on the spot. He can't lose with that tweet can he. Now Steve Nicholson is saying that Derby were never in for Panzo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsene Titman Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Steve Nicholson saying that we are not, and never were, interested in signing Panzo ” Derby County are not in for Monaco defender Jonathan Panzo and nor has the 19-year-old been a target despite reports, DerbyshireLive understands. Reports linking Panzo with the Rams continued to circulate yesterday. Multiple outlets claimed that Derby were nearing an agreement to sign Joanthan Panzo for a fee of around £4m.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One saying "Panzo given green light to join". Where were their normal "wide of the mark". This Panzo stuff should be a lesson to every Derby fan, including me. There are hundreds of sad little fans (or even genuine reporters) who honestly want to be seen as ITK in the eyes of fans, even though they know they arent, they are happy to run with the illusion that they are, just to get followers and retweets on Twitter. It's a sad little world we live in. How many of these ITK fans and reporters leaked the details of Marshall? None. The days of leaks from the club is over. Which is why I'm still taking the Clarke deal as being nothing more than rumour at the minute. If there were leaks from the club people like SDSR and Mackworthram and Carl Sagan would be first to tell us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were doing it to drive clicks to their unreadable, journalistically bankrupt, utter mess of a website. I believe the flurry of stories all came from a Mirror article saying we were close to sorting a deal out for him. Who'd have thought the Mirror would turn out to be an unrealiable source, eh?

BucksRam Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I remain pretty ambivalent to all this until someone with some credence, aka Percy announces anything. So far it's all been a regurgitation of the same story. That said I'm not sure whether I should be quietly excited or not. He's an unknown quantity to me and unproven in the Championship. I'm more excited about getting Clarke back. He got better and better as the season progressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I think it's pretty obvious at this point that Conway knows the square root of duck all, Nixon doesn't have any insider info any more as all of his answers to questions are vague and non-commital and the DET are to journalism what Claude Davis was to defending.

The good thing about Nixon is that he does clearly have insider info at plenty of clubs, so any time we do business with one of them we get actual information. You're right that Conway doesn't seem to have anything; although he's pretty fresh at this - its not like a portfolio of contacts get handed to you - the question is if he's putting any effort into accruing them or is happy to just bounce other people's rumours around.
