    Or maybe he was answering a reporters questions in his usual honest manner & not trying to promote his own agenda

    The problem we now have is that every agent in this land knows we are desperate for strikers, so will attempt to screw every last £ out of us.

    Or maybe it just means we're not willing to be held to ransom and pay more than we think the players are worth. What else are we supposed to do? Spend a load of money that we haven't got?

    After listening how confident hecky was about bringing in 4 players on Monday I would think he would be gutted to not get at least a couple in by weekend

    Maybe so , but if the 3-4 players don't sign, it makes him and the club look a bit daft .

    Saw Madine on Sunday for Bolton and without being a world beater he showed us what we're missing.Strength and ability to hold the ball then lay it off. Simple stuff but effective.

    We do have money tho... But just don't like to part with much... It shows we are way, way out of our comfort zone in the championship..

    He could've just pressed control + down arrow.

    Money for transfers is one thing, money for wages is another.

    True, but if the club dont make any statements they get criticised & when they do people accuse them of lying or stringing them along. I just get the feeling whatever they do, they cant win.

    Not sure why people are using this to bash the club. Again. We don't know

    A) if it's true
    B) who it was/is
    C) what the reasons were

    It could be *****. If it isn't then it may have been a L1 player like Grigg or Maden, and his agents might have wanted £10k or £15k a week. Or it may have been they would only sign a 2 year deal.

    Slight over reaction to a rumour.

    I'll feel like I've been strung along if they don't sign .Hecky must have been pretty certain they would sign when he worded the answer to the question in that way . Three days later and no-one has signed . It could be embarrassing . We'll soon see I suppose .

    Exactly. Close on 3 of 4 doesn't mean we will sign any of them!

    When and if it happens we will get the news.
