Jobe Bellingham - Signed

He’s not be his brother, so the only concerns I have are the twerp fans we have, that will get on his back when he doesn’t live up to his brothers career trajectory. He’s clearly a very talented boy, but reading the Brum forums, it would seem he still needs a fair bit of nurturing before he can expect to be the first name on the team sheet. Positive move from the club though, so feelings about him put to one side, brilliant work from Speakman.

Probably, but I mean he's only 18 in September and already looks well developed and has played a decent amount of 1st team games. if he's only half as good as his brother, its a canny deal.

As we have seen with Ekwah and Simms, if your young and a bit naive, it don’t half make a difference if you can use your body to great effect.
You got to admire Michut and Diallo etc but it’s been a hell of a slog for them

It’s a great place for him to grow and develop at Sunderland. One of Mowbrays Babes

Bottom feeders marra.
All sent by their clubs for expenses only to report on one or two players. If they share which ones and it turns out they’re watching four of five between them they’ll add the other names to their report saying they may be worth further investigation or summet. Don’t over commit though. All that’s required is that you’ve mentioned them and if they turn into summet then to all intents and purposes you’d seen it in them. Imagine the kudos of sticking Hendersons name on your report sheet for an opposition player during his loan at Cov?

The NE always has been. It’s always been out of the way from the national media. A couple of good games for a London team like QPR or Orient or Charlton and suddenly the big six are all over you according to the papers in the pre internet days.

Do we have concrete evidence that he's signing for us? I know iseen something last week saying he'd be here within the next 10 days to sign, but has there been anything else on his transfer?

It's not just been a case of him coming up to visit Speakman and Dodds like he did at the playoff final is it? 😆

Every half serious media outlet is reporting it. What actual evidence could be provided?

Triggered clause if he didn't play so many minutes for Birmingham

Seems a done deal like, just can't announce it yet. Probably the reason why we have not taken the option up on Michu.

That also reminds me of that deal falling through for that Liverpool full back, as Cirkin suddenly became available we quite rightly opted for him instead.

He was up for Luton 1st leg mate on the touchline
 
Don’t think we will see out until after the weekend, highly likely they Dortmund are going to win the Bundesliga at the weekend which looks set to be Jude’s last game there so would imagine the whole family will be out in Germany.
