Would imagine we were miles apart on valuation. |  |

As I understand it, it didn't get very far. We let him go and have a chat with them while the clubs discussed figures, which they didn't cone to any agreement on. |  | | |

Apparently they had some external consultant provide some last minute input that deterred them, think the chaps name was Fromley? Frimilly? Something like that š | | | |

Would assume miles apart then Phil?.
Likely to be we wanted Ā£1m+ and WBA were at a similar figure to Boro for Edmundson <500k?
Any chance it might resurrect as a loan with an option? [Post edited 21 Jan 2025 20:17]

Don't know precise figures but get the impression there was a bit of distance between the valuations, but not sure it got too far into thrashing an agreement out. Not impossible if the three parties are keen, but I would guess Town are keen to move him on permanently if they can. | | | |

Suggests they are confident of getting a striker in then.
As with Ladapo being allowed to leave last season, hell of a risk if not. | |

Whatās the play with Edmundson?Just trying to force a higher offer one would think, seems quite a harsh approach to recall him from loan and miss the game though, thatās serious hard ball. | | | |

I heard it was pretty close, they just asked him to sign in the box....
....but he missed.
Sorry. š„² [Post edited 21 Jan 2025 20:29]

He's not up to being the rotating striker if Delap or Hirst are injured. We'd be better off changing formation or whatever. Unfortunately* for Ali we've a) exceeded our expected progression from when he signed, b) Hirst got injured and c) we failed to land another striker in the summer.
* not that unfortunate really, he's got paid more cash, had a great promotion experience, and he's young enough to get going again elsewhere and still have a chance to develop. |  |

Bit of an impasse between the clubs at the moment. I reckon it will probably get done eventually as makes sense for all parties. | | | |

I agree.
Ali is not up to it but it isn't his fault. We bought him as a possible wild card in a championship side, we didn't buy him to play on The Prem.
One of those things, I hope he does well. | |

Indeed. Ali's fitness is also a question mark over a potential move as well, of course. A loan with a view to buy might suit the other club better initially. | | | |

Itās not a risk. As mentioned earlier the powers that be are likely to realise multiple other players could fill that role more efficiently | |

What other physical players who are good in the air do we have other than Hirst and Delap? |  |

Well, Chaplin IMO is the best at heading the ball in the squad, if he was 2 feet taller, heād be an absolute monster! | | | |

Showing my age but there was a time when some players were versatile enough to be able to play on very different positions. We've had players who played central defence and forward for example. A high quality coach should be able to coach versatility. |  | | |

Not really, manager gives a player a number of chances to see if he can be the player he wantsā¦ and in this case, itās not worked out at all | |
