Alexandre Mendy (transfer rumour)

Literally everything had been done bar the medical, all personal terms, deal agreed with his club, went out to celebrate in Mexico City the night before he was flying over to complete it and some knacker shot him in the head in a nightclub's toilet and obviously stopped the move from happening.

It's as daft as that time Cabanas got shot in the head the night before he was flying over for a medical. :lol:

I shouldn't laugh but I remember that well. He looked class as well . Didn't they leave the bullet in his head as was too dangerous to remove or have I imagined that? Imagine every time a cross came in the crowd would be ducking down just in case he made a really good connection and set it of f :eek: :eek: :lol: :lol:

Aye, had to leave it in and it gave him some stroke type symptoms in one half of his body. Still came back playing like and would have been better than Burstow.

Just re watched this video clip of him. Some of them goals man and the distance out. He could have been the defensive midfield goal scoring striker the p[positions he takes up

That's not how budgets work.


Why. I posted speakman talking about unexpected money directly before we signed two players he talked about moving for at the last minute

I didn't say it paid for last seasons transfers. And I don't need to. I posted speakman talking about lihadji money being unexpected. Just before he talked about pembele and Aouchiche being signed unexpectedly. If you can't join the dots from there I can't help you

If you cant see that we have wasted the Stewart money in the last 2 transfer windows then you are beyond help.

You still trying to tell people we've sold 100,000 shirts boss?

I’m only saying what’s believed to be common knowledge.

However, you conveniently miss the point that we are being run like a non league outfit rather than the biggest club outside the premier league without any aspirations to return there.

Well, let's just all hope he's having a scarf pic at some point at the beginnjng of this week. He'll not be ready to go straight into the first 11 anyway so it going to take a week or two to get him up to speed, which is far from ideal.

That’s what we all want but he is going to be far from match fit or have any understanding of his teammates or tactics.

That's what I'm saying. Even if he comes in this week, he'll still be a week or two behind in getting settled here and used to the set up/tactics.

Really need two strikers anyway.

1. The club themselves tweeted out that 25,000 shirts had been sold. Why wouldn't they use the real number of "100,000s"?

2. Not many non league clubs Rigg would knock back some of the biggest/richest clubs in the world to stay with.

How about some actual reality in your opinion, instead of all of this exaggeration?

Be fair, he's told us TEN THOUSAND TIMES that he doesn't exaggerate.

Sorting out our midfield (browne) was of higher priority than signing a striker imo. We less dependent on a targetman if our midfield is better. The high press change more important also.

Mayenda is decent and fits in. Jobe can plsy there. Bring in 1 proper striker and I dont think its horrific. We've done the smart bit sorting the other stuff out imo

Signing Mendy then maybe a Premier League loan on deadline day? I still think we should try and get Stewart on loan. He needs to get his fitness it wouldn’t take too long to settle here again. Makes sense.

I think we’ve seen the best of Stewart sadly.

I wouldn’t be going anywhere near him now.

I’d be far happier if the club actually paid money for two strikers and if it takes selling Ekwah to do that I’d be in favour.
