The Official Silly Transfer Thread for January 2017

[Woolly Mammoth]

I'm not implying that the club is not furiously busy closing deals behind the scenes but this window feels, by a big margin, the lowest number of fulham related rumours I can remember. Don't know how we have gone through 93 pages on the morsels we have been fed.

As far as Fulham are concerned. It's not so much a Bay Window. More a Porthole.

[filham]

93 pages of nothing apart from 1 wind up after another.

Yes and the Ross rumour has been on/off time and again.

[David I]

Due to the lack of success in the window to date, the desperate need for a striker and the transfer window closing tomorrow.
I predict a panic signing or two of Ross McContract for £14million from Villa and a cheeky £4million for Emile Heskey!!

Well Ive heard its Carlton Cole and David Bentley and if we are really lucky we will finally land Koumas as well

[Lighthouse]

Smith will go to QPR on loan. We will have a player in place to come in, on the understanding that the club he is coming from can find a replacement. The will they, wont they will go on all day. Then with a minute to go, we will hear of the signing coming in.

Dame Agenes Fortunato will need a work permit and is recovering from an injury. Once played in goal and has a friend who played as a striker.

The 12 million striker we may have hoped for.  Goes off to a German team.

Arsenal striker Chuba Akpom is set to join Brighton on loan until the end of the season.

Yeah, he will have a lot of playing time there with Hemed, Baldock and Murray on board already.

[westcliff white]

The 12 million ruour is quiet today it seems.

As for Akpom, did we want him? were we linked? i s he a Martin type player? I think that is what we are loking for someone to play in a similar way so the team dynamics stay the same.

Do well to find a big slow un committed striker that occasionally goes on strike, this late on in the window.

GetWestLondon say Matt Smith will join QPR for £1m. For us to double our investment in him when he has 6 months left on his contract is incredible. With Smith leading your line, I think you'll always limit yourselves to midtable. I think we've done some good business there trusting a replacement is on its way - and I do trust that a replacement is on its way.

[Riverside]

OK folks .

Now its time for announcements .

I predicted our signings would be

1) in the last 48 hours - so now is the time and I have only missed 1
2) Players we have not been linked to or heard of . Pestos fitted that bill .

At least Ajite and Kebano will be back . Though I don't think Kebano will feature on Wed .

[bill taylors apprentice]

We are making a strong push for promotion, the manager says so and with Humphreys and Woodrow out on loan already and Smith rumoured to be on his way means a Centre forward type player is a cert !

That has to happen, doesn't it ?

This is Fulham, it could easily not happen,and we could easily convert Madl to a striker.
Nothing will amaze me after the carry ons of the last few days.
I bet whoever comes will be a loan.

OK....So why has my post on the other one just started been taken down,it was about buying someone?

[Fulham 442]

We have just accepted a £1m bit from the Ha Ha's for Matt Smith.  Does that mean we have an incoming striker or just that he is surplus to requirements at Fulham and we just want to offload him?

His contract runs out at the end of the season doesn't it? Guessing we are cashing in now. Surely this means we have someone in the pipeline though as it leaves us with an unhappy CM as our only real striker.

Actually it is 500k rising to a million based on appearances

Thing is I just dont think Joka is anywhere keen on him. Almost just tolerated him because hes in the squad.
But one start since September
2 sub appearances in 12 games on the bench.

he just doesn't want him even with the lack of main strikers we have.

Pecking order after martin i reckon is Ayite, Piazon, Aluko
