Cashy's post worries me even more as well now because if it wasn't Ripley he was alluding to .......

No I've heard an unconfirmed rumour that Preston are talking to Ripley and are about to make an offer for one off our players, who also didn't feature last night.....

On Preston's fans forum there's a rumour that they're interested in prising young Callum Johnson away from us

This window needs to come to a close sooner rather than later.
That would explain why he wasnt even on the bench.

I said may well leave, not defo would.28,all i know for sure is J.C. was told before the window, he wasn't happy with things. So it depends if offer comes in.

Hey ho, the window's only just opened ,28. So much for the idea that holding onto players is 'simples'

Ahh, the transfer window; another brilliant idea we owe, in part, to the EU.

I can't help but think it was invented to entertain and employ people who aren't really that interested in football itself but like the gossip, rumour, and talk about money that now engulfs the game.
It's bad enough that Stanley have to rebuild a squad every summer but twice a season is ridiculous.

He is under contract.

Unless any other club makes a bid that is acceptable to the club he's going nowhere.
Every player has a price - even Premiership stars - and if Preston or Wigan are prepared to pay that figure then its good business for everyone.
I stress business because he'll take some replacing in the next three weeks if true.
If we set the fee at say £2 mill and they take the bait that's their concern.
I would think that would be enough to put suitors off don't you ?
If not it's good business.

Dan Jewell on twitter saying Preston already had an offer for Callum turned down.

AccyMad · 09-01-2019, 13:10

According to the Telegraph, Preston have put a bid of around 300,00 in for Callum & we've turned them down - let's hope they don't up the price enough to be seriously considered . . . . . .

As much as we don't want to lose any players, money does talk, and I think, if I am right, all monies to be re- invested in the new training ground, (haven't heard too much about that lately) and new changing rooms.
