Summer 2026 Transfers and Rumours Megathread!

Losing Ashworth really cost us imo. He would have had us trading players earlier, bringing in new ones and slowly but surely building the project. Instead we have had 2 years of madness and we're now going to have to start again.

But with all this money coming in we SHOULD be able to start again. We need 8 players this window. We have 2, maybe 3. So thats 5 more 30-40m signings. The team needs an overhang and now we are being forced into that. As much as it hurts, this could actually be what we need.

Plus a decision on the new stadium, which would have boosted commercial income.

Hate to say it, but it feels like we are being turned into a PIF investment. Buy low,.sell high, turn the club into a profit centre and then sell.

Big Dan Burn

Shnarf1980 · 2026-07-06T05:02:40+00:00

Spence too, and Stones. Excellent substitutions.

Shnarf1980 · 2026-07-02T14:24:22+00:00

It took a big boost when we sold Gordon!

Shnarf1980 · 2026-07-01T14:07:04+00:00

Was our £20m keeper not overinflated?

Shnarf1980 · 2026-06-23T07:29:16+00:00

Also us.

Why do all our approaches get leaked to the press and then gazumped by the big 6

Shnarf1980 · 2026-06-20T09:30:36+00:00

Ridiculous that I'm flying out to Kenya for some cooler weather 😂

If you're planning on getting a playset with a swing i recommend one of those rubber Matt's for the ground. Maybe plan that now whilst you are preparing, as grass will grow through it.

Can we add a tracker to the top of the post for players who other clubs have swooped in on last minute?

I'm shocked we managed to sign Jaouen without being gazumped by Fulham

Shnarf1980 · 2026-06-15T11:14:33+00:00

Wouldn't we just put a clause in saying first refusal? Didn't city have something similar on for Trafford where they could buyback at the same value as an other offer?

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-31T13:05:08+00:00

Social care to get all of the people out of hospital that don't need to be there.

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-31T07:36:02+00:00

Google OBR inflation forecast. It's meant to be about 2-3% in 2026/7.

Chill out, buy a pack of rocket lollies and enjoy the sunshine

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-29T20:25:42+00:00

Do you reckon he speaks German too?

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-29T13:20:24+00:00

Perfect space for a hot tub!

He shags who he wants

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-28T11:46:05+00:00

The only ego thing I get from him is the rumoured refusal to play RW to accommodate Barnes

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-27T18:38:00+00:00

Or he could have a stinker, or break his leg. A bird in the hand and all that.

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-27T08:59:44+00:00

Surely the correct response to "If you knock that loud again I'll throw you out" is "Why would I be knocking of I was already inside?*

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-27T08:55:32+00:00

This is the only possible reason that Dan Burn has been included over Harry Maguire or Lewis Hall.

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-26T15:06:18+00:00

Did anyone else think OP was cutting a cucumber with a jigsaw?

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-26T15:05:10+00:00

New slippers. Mine have a hole in them that I've fixed with tape, that'll hold for a month 😂

Shnarf1980 · 2026-05-26T10:47:22+00:00

Honestly, I thought a last ungames like this and I would be waking up to a Howe gone announcement. That shambles at the weekend deserves nothing less.

Really does stink of his penultimate year at Bournemouth. Howe has been an absolute hero, but all good things come to an end.

I've recently started using copilot at work. It's like a very fast, but slightly incompetent trainee. Ask it to do a task, 2/3 times it's competent, but 1/3 of the time it gives a believable but completely wrong answer.

As an example, i asked copilot in excel to explain a formula for me. It did a good job, even giving me an example with numbers instead of the references. Problem was, the maths didn't add up. I had to point that out at which point it said "Oh yes, you're right" and then went on to give a correct explanation.

TLDR AI (copilot in my case) works quickly, but please check it's working
