Summer Transfer Window 2017

Each to their own exactly mate.

It's a funny old world, this time last year he was the most popular poster on here everyone wanting to be his best mate, now all you hear is he chats jarg. That not directed at you at all mate. More a broad comment of the self serving nature, hypocrisy and judgements that can sometimes happen on here.

Like I say I put stock in what he says as much as I ever have, knowing the calibre of the lad.

Simple answer is its the way of social media mate.

're financial stuff the bloke is as good as it gets.

 

[Smig1878]

Thought I might make the list..

Ah well, keep up the good work

On a totally separate issue, do you like my drawing? I might call him Mike...

Out of context but is that Steamboat Willie?

Good evening mein frandels, and welcome to the sixth week of the Weasel Index.

This captures data from June 27th - July 4th.

What is the Weasel Index? Find out here https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/summer-transfer-window-2017.94428/page-846#post-5473408

Probably my favourite one so far from top Weasel Index Supporter and all round good frandel @Sapie88

This week has seen some serious ACTION!

Firstly, Weasel Sightings - I love them, you love them, we are all looking out for those Weasels.

He's a Perennial, and a great boon for the Index, and again this week @jinkyali swings in for a DOUBLE SIGNING. Alas, a week early for Sandro

@royalblue66 could be a Perennial if he emerges a couple more times. Barkley signs new deal?

@Number_25 also goes for the Ross has signed stuff - number 16,877 this rumour has appeared.

@tommye calls it for Lukaku - July 1st signing for Chelsea.

@Smig1878 doing a Double Jig - new deals on the table for Ross and Rom

https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/romelu-lukaku.77973/page-2177#post-5556926

A real big beast sighting here - @davek makes the claim that Niasse was not signed by El Fraudo. Despite being signed by El Fraudo.

Jah Bless - @Mrtallywacker divinely intervenes to highlight @marnie going all Owl-TK on us for Keane.

https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/summer-transfer-window-2017.94428/page-1882#post-5557895

@AndyC gets the Monday claim in for Keane

https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/michael-keane.97029/page-70#post-5564910

@Banksyefc refusing to be abstract - Spurs in for Ross, is it all Pollocks?

Finally, we have our @themole10 ITK God List update. These individuals are unranked, they are merely cited for their omniscience. All points removed.

@mccole for his excellent Henry call. I think this is probably the most 'low coverage' one.
@Pabbers for knowing the media team were in Poland or wherever else for the signing of Sandro, and when
@marnie - ok, a lot of Keane chat about, but we will give him this one, if only for being excited about having a pair of signed Snivelley boots
@GrandOldTeam for the Sandro updates and letting us keep having the Index

Points Removed

@AndyC has his points removed for the Keane chat, too much momentum and background chatter for real ITK status

The @Raino85 controversy

Unfortunately Mr @Raino85 cannot escape accusations of plagiarism and abuse of Weasel Hunters and as such, has been awarded an extra 100 points this week.

Final Thoughts:

• Finally we have our ITK list updated. I have been waiting for this because I am sad that people think the Index is only negative. It is not, it is kind and WeaselFrandly. If you are a new person to the site you can trust these individuals and their info (even @Pabbers which disgusts me)
• We are seeing some perennials and it excites me.
• The list has seen some new additions, which is always a happy moment
• Downie must be CRUSHED.

Thank you again to the Hunters. You are the best Frandels.

Absolute banger of a post mate, would read again 10/10.

No I drew it!
(Seriously, don't know)

 

[MasonLeeEFC]

Possibly loan deal with Rooney taking a cut in wages. Depends how much he wants it. If he does show that desire to come here it may help to get some of our fan base who are currently against it to welcome him back.

I see no issue with Rooney coming in on loan, think it's win win imo. And if Utd help out with wages then happy days. I do think a move to us would rejuvenate him and he'd be well up for it but if not, we let him go.

 

[orly]

Better than any signing we have made this Summer.

@orly is doing the good work

It's just the best thing on the internet really.

This has to be one of the best and dare I say it well researched posts I've ever encountered. Bravo Orly, bravo.......

Thing of beauty.

The Index is deffo one of the highlights of the Summer closed season.

Great work again

Absolute banger of a post mate, would read again 10/10.

It is a public service willingly done for the good frandelinos of GrandOldTeam.com

 

[Smig1878]

(Seriously, don't know)

Sorry

 

[Kal El]

Sorry

No need to apologise. It's all good
(Just don't know my Disney)

 

[marsh]

Wheres the Sigurdsson transfer rumour thread? Been linked all year basically

 

[Zezti]

... I'd still love us to dish out like £50m on a top quality signing.

 

[Goat]

Wheres the Sigurdsson transfer rumour thread? Been linked all year basically

Lets just pretend it isnt happening.

 

[CynicalBlue]

I thought Newcastle and Liverpool fans are deluded but I've just sat in a pub listening to a West Ham fan tell me that he honestly believes they are going to swoop him and take Lukaku whilst Chelsea and United dither about.

 

[marsh]

Lets just pretend it isnt happening.

But some of us like myself want us to sign him

 

[Zezti]

Watch out the mags think they can get him

In an earlier tweet the same guy said they should sign Asensio lol
File under 'wham'.

 

[Hogwild]

It's Siggy time.

Uh oh....commence requisite stirring of the proverbial hornets nest...
