I think general consensus is that he wants PL. The only question that remains is whether, if there's no PL interest, he'll choose to come here on 31st August or stay with Boro. |  | |  |

I suspect (hope) that if he leaves it until the 31st, it will be too late for him to come to us, as we'd have concluded the signing of an alternative target. Too risky for us to wait in the hope that he decides at the last moment that a move to us is right for him. |  | |  |
Did Hackney turn us down on 17:22 - Aug 18 with 2879 views | PioneerBlue | The original news article from the local news group that broke on the Saturday before our preseason game had no quotes but you imagine it to be broadly accurate. The wording wasn’t quotes and wasn’t categorical in that he’d said no not now or no not ever which has left a lot of oxygen to fill the gap. If he’d been really up for joining he’d have been here but our original offer may have been time bound allowing for us to at least go back and ask the question and close this up once and for all this window. |  |

If he turned us down , I can't see any way we would be making another bid. |  | |  |

He was quoted locally up north as saying..... on 17:35 - Aug 18 with 2611 views | Bloots | ...."Look, I have absolutely no interest in signing for Ipswich, it's a sideways move and lets face it Ipswich is as much of a dump as Middlesbrough is. The fans can't speak properly in either place, but at least I sound the same as you lot up here. I want to play in the Premier League, I don't really care who for, lets be honest about it I just want to get on the telly more often, get a fitter bird and earn a stack of cash for me and my agent. This said if Ipswich are my only option at the end of the window, I might drag my ar5e down there, but only if they treble my wages, bung my agent a decent drink and write it into my contract that I can leave at the first available opportunity for sod all" |  |

When that girl turned you down at the nightclub did you just walk away, or go back for a second try? |  |

Hopefully, for your own self respect and the girl's safety, the first one. |  | |  |

If you like a girl, self respect goes out of the window. Sometimes you have to persevere. Nice to give the girl a chance to change her mind. Do not know about nowadays but safety was not even an issue 30 years ago. |  | |  |

"Nice to give the girl a chance to change her mind." Did you really unironically just write this? |  | |  |

Neither us nor Boro would want it to drag on, as they would need time to replace him and we need time for option F |  | |  |

There must have been an element of interest if he came down though. or he woudl not have done that |  | |  |

Boro aren't going to sell 31st, what use is 20m to them then if they can't spend it? |  |

My point is from our perspective - we shouldn’t be waiting around on the off-chance. I do disagree with your point though. Have you not monitored previous final days of the transfer window? There are chains of transfers that often conclude on the final day, provided all the pieces of the chain are in place. Boro could have their incoming signings lined up, waiting to close subject to Hackney leaving. If he goes, they conclude their new signings, if not no one moves. |  | |  |

I've said it before - odds are Hackney is off, the only question right now is the destination and whether or not it's this window, or the Winter window. |  | |  |
