ITK Rommers 01:27 - Jul 31 with 13031 views | The_Romford_Blue | Hackney medical is happening tomorrow (Thursday). Still hasn’t agreed yet but is getting there. Impressed by McKenna today and his ideas so I’m told. Personal opinion (and from what I’ve heard today from my pal) is that he’s hoped an Everton or the like come in as he knows he’s good enough for Prem football right now. His stats have him as one of the best under 23 midfielders in the world. That said, if nobody comes in for him, playing for us as a likely top 2 team and playing for McKenna is still a huge step up. It’s not that he’d be rejecting us, but more that he’d be rejecting the championship. Which makes sense. I think we get him. And he takes us to the prem which is what both parties want obviously. Would be some bloody signing. Uppa Towen. Edit - And the other interesting bit I got about the transfer itself was that the reason they accepted 20m on the second bid as a package is because the outright original fee is a big chunk rather than instalments as is often the case. We’re giving them a proper lump which they (Middlesbrough) were apparently all for. Hackney pissing around and taking his time does us (in case someone else comes in) and Boro (as they want to spend the money on other plays) no favours whatsoever. That’s all i’ve got folks for now [Post edited 31 Jul 1:36]

He was on the bench a week later and came on at Newcastle the week after that. I'm just asking how reliable your mole is, not a personal attack Rommy. |  | |  |

Have to admit I’d not realised he played against Newcastle. Apologies. The off the field stuff was true so I’m actually stunned he was back on the pitch thereafter but I suppose everyone is allowed to make mistakes. The source is pretty good tbf. Gone to Phil on numerous occasions of which he’s then put a story up. Of which he has verified thereafter. Gave him 2 or 3 names last year we turned out to sign (greaves) or be after (the Sheff u defender). Phil doesn’t know my source (friend of mine) but he knows exactly where my source gets the info from. Have spoken about it before with him - of which obviously I won’t go into details. That’s not to say my man hasn’t been wrong before. He was adamant that the Delap clause was only a buyback clause for city. He was sure there was no release clause of which that turned out to be incorrect. |  |

Am I missing something, have they made an offer for him? |  |

The Godfrey info was correct and like you was amazed he managed to work his way back into the fold - but was just pure desperation injury wise and presumably seen a s a little reward for improvements |  |

I absolutely guarantee you that 'Give Me Sport' won't be at the forefront or breaking exclusives on this move! I could have written that article. It is drivel. |  | |  |

Nice one, hopefully correct on this occasion too. Hackney would be a hell of a good signing. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Was led to believe they are reliant on our money up front to pay for a chunk of their deals. That’s why our second bid (even though it was still 20m overall) was accepted. Because it involves a big old whack up front rather than instalments |  |

£3.5m for an average 27 year old full back. |  | |  |

No just said he may wait for spurs to bid which isn’t guaranteed. We need a Phil bomb to say he’s in Suffolk🤣 |  | |  |

They could've had Harry Clarke for that. |  | |  |

Not a chance that he will be starting for Spurs. |  | |  |
