    Sky Sports reported that both clubs had agreed a deal so I’m presuming the player himself turned us down

    Allegedly on good money at brum imagine it was take significant pay cut but play regularly or just cash the cheque but get splitters in his bum at best. I guess he made his choice. I hope the Gent is true he looks like upgrade on Cadden.

    You talking about Gent or Longelo, or both turning us down?

    From what I've read, he'll be an upgrade on Longelo too.

    I agree looks full of promise but I've been wrong before,let's hope Gent puts playing before cash.

    If someone would rather bench sit for more cash than I'm glad the deal wasn't done.

    Longelo is 23 and only played 40 professional games which I feel is never a good sign at that age. Not disappointed it fell through and Gent - assuming he signs - sounds a promising player.

    Reports from Brum about him wasn't encouraging.

    Perhaps you would care to tell us what the deal was because I don’t know. Maybe he wanted 20 grand a week, would you pay that for someone who’s a bit player at Brum, I know I wouldn’t.

    Doubt he’d want 20k a week . But probably wanted a decent wage like we all want

    Don’t understand how it’s automatically the clubs fault if we’re not prepared to roll over and spend more than we deem appropriate to fill a role.
    I don’t want us to spend more than we can afford for anyone - I’d rather we stayed where we are and survive.

    I don't care how good a player is, I personally never want to see the Club break the wage structure, spending money they don't have.

    We’ve gone from having a competitive wage in championship to not having a competitive wage in division one with these owners . Looks like two targets have turned us down now over personal terms

    I thought we had a couple of fans coordinators or something to keep the fans informed. Sorry but don't think its working very well
