Apparently we’re interested in some young English lad City let go a while back.
Michael Johnson :drool:

His return to football and subsequent wearing of Utd’s famous #7 will be the ultimate redemption story!

Scratchy throats really have a chance to overtake generic sore back/back spasm as the injury of choice for wantaway footballers in these Covidy times.

In the last few minutes the odds have changed drastically in Dortmund's favour. Has something happened?

:lol: The same name came to my head when too. What a legend.
Curiosity got the better of me and I had to check to see what he’s up to these days. Apparently still running his own estate agent’s business. Good for him.

... Until Woody rings with an offer he can’t refuse, that is! :drool:

This will no doubt result in many aeronautical based responses, but what's with the airport stuff? Did I miss a running meme or something?

lighthearted distraction to the task in hand, but we need to focus. 120m on the table and thats it. Plane and simple

It’s when the real fun starts, tracking flights that may or may not carry said target. I personally loved Pogbas.
The Pogba thread was 1000 pages of quality stuff, inspired by our own steadfast ITK. Sadly the Sancho thread has never really compared - length isnt everything.

Are you deliberately trolling with this betting nonsense?
No. Bookies do not like losing money. Offering odds that suggest he will remain at Dortmund indicates that the bookies think he will remain (or there's been a run on the remain market).

The club are denying the bid, I think the intermediaries for Dortmund have potentially leaked the conclusion of discussions to highlight Dortmund's stance to that particular offer ? Will be interesting to see how it develops over the next 48

The odds are determined by punters. Punters generally know nothing except what the Sun/hearsay feeds them.

That's a bit presumptuous and quite frankly, just plain wrong.

Bookies increase the odds when more money goes one way, and vice versa. They know absolutely nothing, punters putting money down is what sways the odds, not "inside info".

It takes a stupidly small amount of money to move the odds. Plus odds doesnt indicate what bookies are thinking. They just protect themselves hence England being up in favourites for WC etc

If this falls through the shit is really gonna hit the fan
No. Here and Twitter will moan, some will decide not to support us but will still watch from an arm chair, others will protest at OT/Ed's house and many will buy into the no value / promote from within / lower league player is the business narratives. Either way, the big red machine grinds on... hardly shit flinging time.

I want a tagline change from the mods once this happens.

I've been saying it's happening for months undeterred.

Can't wait to see him don the jersey.
At least yours isn’t 4 years dated

The market for transfers is absolutely minuscule to the bookies. I saw an article on it a little while back. Even the most popular transfer sagas often end up with sub 6 figures total laid on it. They regularly refuse large bets because unlike sport it’s not a game of chance and insider money can cost them. So when you see large fluctuations it’s not because they know anything, it often just means that one big bet was attempted (which might only be as little as a few hundred quid to a grand) or they picked up a pattern which might be completely coincidental.

You’ll have as much luck trying to read something out of tea leaves as you will reading the bookies odds.

Yeah I came across the article earlier,however the difference this time is there is another player involved too
That player is said to have had a poor performance in goal in the last game and was likely dropped and some suggest he's being lumped with Sancho for obvious reasons.
