The 2016 Official Silly Summer Season Transfer Thread

[Lighthouse]

Our manager has just tweeted a picture and saying that he is enjoying a bit of training with the team in Cork. What can we read into this? Is it a dig at the players for not training hard enough. Is a joint signing on the way.

According to his agent the QPR player is not on trial at Fulham but training with us. Mike Rigg knows all about him from his days at QPR so no need for trial. Just....um....training with a view to ...um sign then.

Don't think it's a dig at all like his one last week wasn't a dig about players not coming in, makes no sense to criticise club hierarchy or players on social media as would have the opposite effect to that desired, even more so as we almost certainly have a code f conduct over the use of social media.

For info Berba is in London apparently

Kevin McDonald is being chased by a number of clubs, not just Fulham. Kenny Jackett has confirmed that the player is in talks.

Just saw this. Looks like Fulham might be leading the race to land him though.

I think there should be a seperate thread for the Stearman/Madl, weight/height discussion, It's getting very boring. Lets just discuss transfers and rumours please.

You were sent here by DannyBoi to keep the post count down, weren't you.  :028:

Haha would I be so secretive about my moderating methods.   For the record I don't have any moles working for me.......

Anyway I was part of that debate at the beginning so it wasn't me.

The tweet is very important and deeply significant.

After careful textual analysis by my team that includes trained psychologists and Cold War analysts they have concluded that it means:

    "he is enjoying a bit of training with the team in Cork"

Hmmm, but why mention Cork? Are we about to sign Jack Cork from Swansea?

Danny maybe it just because they are in cork and returning home later tonight or early tomorrow and nothing more than that

Number of clubs not just Fulham and he is in talks,but to which club or clubs is he talking too

That makes too much sense for my liking :wine:

Mine too but trying not to read too much into things this summer

Yes I was joking about the reaction of tweet from Joka. Just in case.

[AnEssexFan]

Maybe SJ knows we need a decent holding midfielder so is thinking of becoming a player manager?

Sheffield Wednesday is one.

Brentford also interested in Faurlin

Nice that Kenny Jackett is so honest with transfer dealings, he was the same with Stearman too

I am interested to know if we were the first or second team who had an offer accepted and who was the first team he spoke too.

As for KJ yes it is nice he is honest, but it can also weaken his hand selling the player, if the player wants out or as seems on this case the club are willing to sell then other teams are likely to not pay what they want.

Hopefully a good word from Stearman together with Riggs 'superior negotiating skills'  will swing it

This one has over 35,000 followers. Seems legit as compared to the others.

Jazz Richards on his way to Cardiff as was predicted/reported on here some time ago. Presume Bugsy coming the other way.

Having a medical, with a view to join Fulham.......any truth in this one?
