| Downes and Bishop next ones to leave… 22:59 - Jun 22 with 5613 views | itfc_tom |
The only real ‘in the know’ guy on Twitter has spoken… for those who want to know what he said, I think I’ve copied below.
No great surprises both could be on their way. In terms of fees, what are we thinking? Downes looking at £1.5m + or is that too ambitious now? Barnsley reported interest, could West Brom now be keen based on new manager? Bishop an odd one, Cambridge the obvious link but in terms of a fee? |  | | |  |

Flynn Downes and Teddy Bishop.
Glad to have been of help. |  |

I highly doubt WBA will be keen on Downes. Barnsley are keen because of their data analytical approach to transfers, the managers have hardly any say in the signings they make. |  |

Who? |
The one of a few people who seems to have some credibility on Twitter for transfers etc.
Wasn’t sure about him at first and he seemed to have got several team selections wrong with flag emojis if I remember rightly. But his transfer news is pretty much spot on.
Certainly no cruncher that’s for sure, let’s not open that can of worms! [Post edited 22 Jun 2021 23:18]

Yeah that’s a fair point. Wasn’t sure on their approach on transfers and who made the signings etc.
Nixon has said that the compensation is £2m for the manager parting to WBA so perhaps they could be reinvesting some (hopefully a large percentage) in Downes.
Certainly a come down from the heights of Crystal Palace last summer…. | | | |

The thing is, I have no insider knowledge or def info, but even I know that there’s a good chance that those two will leave. Not exactly shocking news is it? |  | | |

Interesting point - is downes an analyst's favourite or just good eye candy for us clueless legacy fans?
Is XT a thing? Expected tackles? | |

Not sure it would have made much difference to Jonathan Douglas.

Yeah I’m not completely sure on that approach either. I know Brentford have had good success using a similar method in recent years.
Barnsley would be an interesting move for Downes, if it is them. At an age where he would want to ‘kick on’ and play at the highest possible level, I would be disappointed if we are not ahead of Barnsley in the next couple of seasons. | | | |

Bishop to MK Dons. |
Perhaps would mean Scott Fraser moves on? Would struggle to see how Fraser, Twine and Bishop all for in the same side.
What would we class as good business for Bishop? £100k? Doubt we could get much more as only one year left on deal? | | | |

At least he's stopped calling himself a "freelance journalist" on Twitter.

He/she/it must be. They have Nostradamus power to forecast that players who've been told they can leave and have been linked with clubs for weeks may be about to leave. I wouldn't have seen it. |  |

I get him doing a parody account to hook a few of our simpletons. Incredibly after a painfully slow start it appears to have finally caught a few but I really struggle with the weirdos that try so painfully hard to push the parody for him. It is very desperate stuff and should have been put to bed a long time ago | |

Imagine just constantly pushing something long after everyone has lost interest in it. |  |
