Can't help but wonder how literal Kit Symons was being in his post match interview about how VERY VERY close they are to a signing... :
'Asked what the latest was on the transfer front, Symons replied in his post-match press conference: “We’re very close to a couple but until they’re done I won’t name names. We’re very, very close to one and hopefully close to another as well.'

or perhaps they don't want the £5m but would rather use him in a promotion push that if successful, sees him in the Premier league with us or if not, could see the club net £8-10m from his continued improvement.
Wishing Dunk well at the huge club he is at now, and the inevitable England call up.
Hope he mentions Brighton, that made him a star like Zamora.

You do realise a medical last around 3 hours don't you?
He was only joking

But we could buy 3 or 4 good players for the money to ensure we have the squad to get promoted. We have shown good recruitment ability this summer so I am confident on that side of things. £5m is a lot of money.
Might have done? We had ten corners that all came to nothing.
Agree. Dunk is also huge and might have one a couple of headers against Smith. Watching back on the highlights i can see Uwe got caught out a few times.
I don't think we could get as many as 3, mostly because that would be 3 players wages, all of whom would probably be on more than Dunk is now. And I'm not sure how many would get a regular starting position, our first 11 isn't too shabby (inc Murphy).
I suppose that's not what we're looking at anyway. We need to bring in a couple of other players anyway - another winger, and someone like Teixeira.
1) If we can't do that without selling Dunk, then we have to sell.
2) If we can do it, then selling Dunk would mean we can aim a bit higher with those signings (and get another CB).
3) If we can get the players Chris wants without selling Dunk, that would be the ideal

Played 3 won 3 without Dunk, cash in and move on.
Which 3? Dunk played against Forest.

fair bit on social media re " dunk gone"...it's a massive shame that he want's to leave , if true...!! if the club want to cash in on him to build the squad then that is also a shame as he is a local lad and probable future captain....anyway , it's a funny old game.....!!

Its how a club like ours will make its money, produce talent then flog it high.
A move to Fulham for Dunk would just be about money imo.
Newcastle I could understand, more money, big club, Premier League football etc.
Whether he wants to go or not, if the club get the right price they'll sell regardless.

I think it might be the club driving this rather than dunk. Which would be a shame.
We've done a fair bit of business this summer and that has to be paid for somehow. Sacrificing one player to help the wider rebuilding of a squad that really needed it is a reasonable enough move on the club's part. It's a shame but 'twas ever thus.
