Stansfield 09:53 - Jan 12 with 4546 views | bluesbrothers | Another thread... Do we think it's a fair assumption to make that if he's not here by Saturday, then he's not coming? Certainly if he plays for Bham, then he's not coming? His insta post was one of two things - it was either a "goodbye" post (I was sure it was), or a "I'm staying" post. There's no other reason. So if was goodbye, I'd expect him to move pretty quickly (certainly not play at the weekend). Therefore, if not here and plays on Saturday, we can assume it's not happening. |  | | |  |

Stansfield on 12:39 - Jan 12 by Vegtablue | Earlier in January makes sense to me because it covers the danger of an injury crisis for the parent club, or simply the player showing they are now capable of stepping up. It also slightly reduces the risk of the asset injuring themselves. Many conversations are had before the window opens of course and strikers remain top of most clubs' wishlist, so the risk for the parent club of being saddled with a good player beyond January is low. They can send him back out on loan towards the end of the window if offers fall through, don't materialise or he doesn't look ready still, providing they don't play him in a competitive game. You'd also have the added jeopardy for interested clubs otherwise, who would have little time to operate in if the player moved elsewhere and probably wouldn't be keen on waiting until much of the window was finished.

Yeah that’s true as well. Was probably more hope that he might still get recalled.. |  | |  |

It's the hope that kills me Jon 😭 I prefer to stomp on my transfer hopes first and then it's a pleasant surprise if things go the other way lol, which may or may not be the healthy approach. |  | |  |

Stansfield on 10:17 - Jan 12 by santiagosentme | People need to stop stalking players insta and reading too much into things. Just be patient and trust the process. I know the weather is sh1t but there is plenty of things to do instead of stalking football players social media lol |
I find it really odd there is a thread about him every day pretty much and it's like he's our saviour.....! I'm trusting the people in charge to get it right. They've not done too badly so far. |  | |  |
Stansfield on 20:46 - Jan 12 with 460 views | ibbleobble | I don’t care. Don’t really get all the clamour for him. Pretty sure it’s because it’s just a name and there’s not been many strong links. |  | |  |
Stansfield on 22:14 - Jan 12 with 390 views | southnorfolkblue | Don’t think it’s going to happen personally. Rooneys sacking saw to that. I’d imagine that Fulham would be quite happy with him working under Mogga |  |
