The Summer 2025 Transfer Window Thread

[SSB]

Some chat Twitter that Samuel Lino is close to happening.

I hear he’s better on the floor than in the air.

He'll cover a lot of ground.

Fuck sake Jeff, sign someone so I don’t have to read these puns.

Lay off.

 

[Del Woppio]

What a bunch a fucking cunts

 

[Alan]

I can’t believe we’re going to finally rid of me my Hwang affliction only to have it be immediately replaced with a Marshall affliction.

Damn my contrarianism to Hell!

I've been impressed with the quality, profile and price of the 2 players we have signed and the one we missed out on. If we get to the end of the window and every position is filled with players of a similar quality I'll be very happy. I've resigned myself to a couple of deals dragging right on to the last few days of the window, it's what I feared would happen when we changed our recruitment structure when we did, but it's getting to the stage where it's going to seriously affect our preparations for the season if we don't get another 1 or 2 in before City.

We've still got a few more to shift on as well and the homegrown question. Lots of work to do.

Agreed.

Not even a mention of Josh Brownhill yet, either.

Cannot think of any reasons *cough* no Matt Hobbs *cough* on why that has changed

This rumour raises a few flags.

 

[BillyDee]

I heard it's off.

 

[prawnking]

Few rumours he's heading to Flamengo

So do you think this image of him outside The Hotel Hotel is fake?

Glad we didn't get him tbh, I don't think I could've taken having to listen to people pronounce his name Line-O

 

[Dennisons Wrong Foot]

Was looking forward to the lino shuffle.

 

[Keef]

was looking forward to line-o taking it down the line-o past the line-o (who keeps his flag down) and crossing it for JSL to score

 

[Carrotdude]

Showing my age but Lino just made me think of this guy

 

[Alan]

Oh, the Thundercats chants we’ll never sing…

That confused the fuck out of primary school aged me, teachers talking about lino when the only Lino i'd heard of at that point was an effing thundercat

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

Thundercats was fucking AWESOME.
