Very regular tweets coming through for anyone that wants to follow them. Mostly BS probably........

Obviously not all in one basket. Weve clearly been looking at Bolanos and Naylor has suggested.there are other targets both domestic and european. Interestingly Naylor said early on he velieved Calleri to be the number one target

Particularly the post which has just told him to f*** off.

Reckon the 3 or 4 pages of fish puns might confuse him

I said this back in October, I'm worried we are putting all our chips in one basket for him and judging by all the press releases.

We are doing just that, if Inter Milan aren't willing to negotiate with Boca and his third party ownership.

Then why are we even bothering?!

Surely we could go for more realistic targets then Calleri, such as Jordan Rhodes or even better McCormack from Fulham?!

I'm not holding out much hope for this, and it feels like it will drag on throughout this January window!

Surprise, surprise.........

Because we have a chance.

We know that Tony has at least met the chairman of the Stellar Group third party ownership in the past. Anymore is speculation.

Maybe Inter don't have the same contacts...

I wasn't going to speculate as to the extent of this, but they do know each other.

I dont believe we would still be in the running if wed received no encouragement to make the most recent bid.

If he wants to stay at Boca until June it will take him that long to read and decipher this thread.

I can keep watch until midnight Eastern Time then OZMike can take over.
Do you need us to wake you if anything happens?

That's actually a VERY good point... How can we get this thread to him?....

I did see on a Boca fan page that they were laughing at us for having a thread that was 99 pages long about Calleri.

I'm not saying we don't have a chance, I'm more concerned that his agent is playing hardball with us, and just wants to get more money for his client.

How much more are we willing to pay him, after this latest offer?!

That is the question!!!

I'm with you on this. I almost feel that, given the time it's dragged on for, it will be a bit of an anticlimax if he does sign, and possibly without the excitement when Leo signed. I'm also worried that he isn't really enthusiastic to join us and that this might be reflected in how he plays (I'm very happy to be proved wrong, of course). I'm not at all enthusiastic about Bolanos, who I think is too slight, and will not be up to the rigours of the Championship. I think you're right on the type of striker we should be looking to sign too. One barrier that is often put forward to our signing a home-grown striker is wages. However, if we are prepared to pay a player €40,000 per week (and this is the thing that frightens me; I can't see Tony Bloom being happy if that sort of detail has been released), then surely some of the strikers mentioned are not that far out of our reach.

Possible 17:00 announcement by Boca ?
