Ex Royals (No not prince Andrew)

Don’t think he did a lot there did he?

Ex loanee Lewis Gibson moves to Preston for a ‘7 figure fee’. Didn’t play too well for us but was highly rated when we brought him in.

Dom Ballard recalled by Southampton from his loan to Blackpool.

He hasn't been starting a lot recently, so not surprised. Still wouldn't be surprised to see him go to Hull, as Selles seems to really like him.

Had a search round and seems he lost form after dislocating his shoulder

Ended with 1 goal from 22 games though think a lot of them were sub appearances

I noticed when he played against us, he was a lot deeper than we were playing him. I know very latterly he was on the left (similar to what Ehibhatiomhan has been playing), but he was almost playing as an attacking midfielder and was nowhere near goal most of the time.

Parky joins the 1000 club today

[Snowflake Royal]

Great achievement, that. Plenty of time left too.

Abbey signs for Rio Ave on loan

Abbey signs for Rio Ave on loan

Good move, assuming he plays - mid-table Portuguese side.

Jamie Gittens - No idea what he was like in our Yoof ranks - but made a impact last night in the Champs League for Dortmund, coming on and scoring a couple..

You may know the forward by his longer surname Bynoe-Gittens.

At the start of this season Gittens took the first part of his surname off his jersey, telling the Dortmund website both names are his father's who suggested the move.

The switch has sparked a renaissance.

Born in London in August, 2004 he was originally on the books at Reading.

He moved to Manchester City's academy in 2018 but, like Sancho, chose not to sign on with the club two years later and moved to Dortmund in 2022.

He made his first team debut in April, 2022 and his Champions League bow against Chelsea 10 months later. He scored his first goal in Europe's premier competition against AC Milan last campaign.

And, as he has developed up the Dortmund ranks, he has been progressing through England's youth levels.

In 2022, Gittens helped the Young Lions win the European Under-19 Championship, starting the final.

Rumours appearing that both Chelsea and Liverpool could make a summer move for Jamie…

This is where the perpetual sell on clause reaps dividends……
Although I suspect we’ll be lucky to get a token amount for our contribution to his youth career.

Not considering it says he ran down his contract at City rather than being bought.

Went to our local school, suprised they don’t make a bit more of it tbh. Maybe they will if he moves back to England

Quality player

We'd certainly be subject to FIFA solidarity payments if he moves internationally. Gittens being sold for £83m, would net us £415,000 via this method (according to the TransferMarkt calculator). It's not much (0.5%), but only because of how young he left us.

That also assumes there's no additional payments through sell-on clauses, which may still exist with how young he left Man City. Perhaps there had to be some sort of agreement between the clubs.

Yeah, solidarity payments apply regardless, but that wasn't the point.

Peterborough are really shit in front of goal as dodgy Joao Virginia keeps a clean sheet against them for Everton in the FA Cup.
