Interesting, although I thought we were after a left back... We shall see

I'm going to say it won't happen

 

[RM-Taylor]

Under contract until 2017.

I presume this ends the interest in another fellow RB, who was also likely to be back-up, who already has some links to the club.

I think there is interest in a right back.................I casually suggested Igor Smolnikov as someone I thought was a great player and it was met with a few questions which tends normally to suggest that that position is OF INTEREST

Doesn't mean that player is of interest though, so don't take that as a potential link to him.

Have I missed something?

Nope, just heard a few whispers about someone but looks like it won't be happening now. Has a couple of links to players here already.

Right club. Wrong fullback.
Tyler Forbes (right back) signing

It seems Mr Kane was only fed half the story. Albion are actually interested in Fleetwood's other right-back, Tyler Forbes - Brighton and Hove Albion poised to swoop for defender

Fleetwood are set for a financial boost as defender Tyler Forbes closes in on a move to Brighton.

The Gazette understands the Championship club have agreed terms with the 20-year-old right-back after he turned down the offer of a new contract at Highbury.

Forbes, who joined Town two years ago after being released by Preston, was handed his debut in November 2014 by Graham Alexander.

He found regular first- team action hard to come by last season due to the form of Conor McLaughlin, who has recently returned from Euro 2016 with Northern Ireland.

And Forbes’ agent Kevin Sharp revealed he was the subject of interest from around the Championship this summer.

Sharp told The Gazette: “Tyler is a very decent prospect, who has attracted quite a lot of attention.

“He was offered a deal by Fleetwood but it looks like his future could be elsewhere.”

It’s believed the south coast Seagulls are close to agreeing what has been described as a substantial fee for the right-back, after talks between the two clubs last weekend.

Although Forbes is out of contract at Highbury, Fleetwood are entitled to compensation because of his age and a deal between the clubs would avoid a possible tribunal to determine the fee.

Fleetwood’s squad continue preparations for the new season today ahead of their opening friendly against Premier League giants Liverpool next Wednesday.

Wikipedia lists him as winger as well

Another one for the Bermuda triangle of the dev squad, never to be seen again.

 

[Pintos]

Is that an argus exclusive? Shame on NSC for not finding out first.

Is this the right footed Adam Chicksen we've all been waiting for??

I fear this may be the case - we really need to sort out the Development squad so that it does what it says on the tin rather than just being a second 11 who are too far off the standard required to make the first team.

In fairness, the scouting system is very different these days. The system that brought in Chicksen, Monakana etc was run by Burke. We seem to have a much better network these days so I'm optimistic it won't be the same for future signings.

 

[Albumen]

Fast apparently.

 

[perseus]

Sign Ryan ?

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Would have rather had Conor McLaughlin but this guy must have potential and who better to learn from than Bruno and Rosenior

Yeah just like Conner Goldson, whatever happened to him
