Fulham were that skint they had to sell one of their best players in Sone Aluko to Reading for £7.5m yet, according to Nixon they’d bid £13m for FF. Nixon’s an embellished forum scanner that’s all. He’s very good at it tbf, but gets far, far more wrong than right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRightSide Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 If Nixon says something there’s usually behind it. I think people fail to realize that just because something doesn’t end up happening, doesn’t mean he’s wrong. But in all of that don’t forget how the media works - sometimes journalists post stories designed to fulfill a specific purpose (move away, new contract, more transfer funds, fanbase manipulation) in exchange for continued inside info 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Well, if we're going with Nixon never being wrong now, I suppose we should stop sniping at those who share his view of our chairman's finances... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Whether the story is 100 percent accurate or not, the fact stuff like this keeps leaking out, points towards the club being a shambles from top to bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, Chansiri's family have called a halt to rampant spending. If we know that the agents have had his trousers down, so will they. Channers may be slack, but there isn't any evidence that the rest of them are. It's a pity we can't get shot of him and deal directly with them. They'll probably back him (and Tone) sufficiently to cheat the drop, but thereafter they'll want further spending scrutinizing. That's no bad thing, and in combo with Tone's footballing nous the future may well be much brighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he didn’t because there was never a £13m bid. Nixon said there was but there wasn’t. Again, like I asked you last time, why would Fulham sell their best attacking option for £7.5 and then bid £13 for a replacement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
