McCleary, no thanks, we already have enough forward players who don't score goals. He would be another.

But then don't forget Kayal is a Muslim. Although probably the opposite denomination (if that's the right word in Islam).
Either way I'd imagine there's been bigger clashes of nationalities in teams before!
It has already been pointed out somewhere on NSC that Kayal is an Arab, not Jewish at all.

What is the point of agreeing a fee with a club if you have not already been given the nod by the agent/player that they are interested....
Because the player is registered with a club, and you have to get their permission before you can (legally) approach their player.

I think in the future to save our sanity we (NSC) give the player a week to sign for us after we've agreed a fee. Any longer and we can safely say they ain't gonna sign for us and we'll move on, even if the club doesn't.
Only exception I think over the years was CMS who signed for us after a few weeks once a fee was agreed.
However, until Ali signs for another club I'll still hold out some hope he will join us.

What is worrying is that when the club seems to be being positive - identifying a player they want, willing to splash out decent cash, coming to an agreement with the club - in fact doing all the things we want them to be doing - and then the player turns round and says, 'Brighton? ........................ Nah'.

Not seen such Bravery!
To be honest the club should sometimes be over ambitious with signings. We'd never have got Vicente if we weren't.
It doesn't always work, and agents will play us, but at least the club have done their best. And the key is we've set a deadline, and not been strung along dancing to an agent's tune for too long.
We move on, don't look back, but let's for our sanity get some of the signings over the line soon.

everyone seem to assume its a matter of money, i read from the two articles posted that its likley he want to hold out for Premier League. think about that in case he comes back in July.
Quite possibly. The danger for the player is that no PL club may come along, in the meantime we have looked and got someone else. Could leave the player in a position where he didn't want to be.
