You missed out 'allegedly' cdward.  Always wise to include one to protect ourselves.

Christian Purslow returned from London to address AVST AGM in the Holte Suite tonight and said he was going straight back for a 9.15 meeting at The Westbury hotel. He strongly hinted it was to do with urgent transfer activity. (this is how I understood it but may be anyone else who was there can correct me?)

Is there a separate thread or info/agenda from this meeting last night anywhere please ?
I believe two forms of info sources are usually published on here. One is note taken by an “unofficial” H&V attendee and second is official minutes from AVST. If nothing appears today I will post my recall from the meeting and invite other attendees to add/correct as required.

I’m hoping the the link to Charlie Colkett is genuine, I’ve seen him a few times, he reminds me of Barry.
Decent reviews and influential captain of their younger teams winning trophies..... another JT influence in scouting him probably

Seen his name before...isn't he a Chelsea kid who's had a million loans and not done much?

I wonder if they’re bringing young recruits in to watch in U23’s so our current crop can go out on loan to get first team games ?

According to an efl site and several Pompey ones he has been recalled rather than sent back . Just read brief bit of an atucoe from last nights trust ago too... this move coincides with what was mentioned. Trying to reduce the average age again and try to make u23’s like the old reserve teams with our own players waiting to start in first team . Sound great but we have to trust and believe in those running the club as this approach certainly won’t ensue a quick return to premiership or 3 Pts most Saturdays for foreseeable

Was there not previously a ITK where Sawyers had told someone that he was signing for us - quite a while back I think

Looking at Villa transfer news

Islam Slimani linked with villa .
He's contracted to Leicester city to end of season but has been on loan in Turkey

Interesting he's a big number 9 striker and hasn't set world alight in English football though has decent pedigree.

Capable and very decent for championship level.

That said I like to think Davis would get opportunity .

Also interesting that Slimani played in Portugal at sporting so wonder if there is a link there.

Also read that "Aston Villa have sent scouts to watch Mansfield Town star CJ Hamilton ahead of a possible bid"

A winger.

So that's a striker and a winger neither I see as major priority.

Also read about being linked to a right back from Barry Town
 I think that one is far fetched!

Yes.
Came from my lads mate who met him while he was working over Dorridge way.

Sawyers actually told him he was going to sign for us.
Have to admit I expected it to be done by now, so, whether things have changed with a couple of other clubs showing interest I don't know.

We trust you ! He'll be in by end of window then !

That's great info .

These things take time so I think this is a good one other wise you wouldn't post up what your son told you

So I think he'll come then when it's FA cup weekend
They play Monday night 28th and I think he won't play then.

Window closes 31st

I hope you mean Gaz Baz not The Wee Yin.
The Barry who steals cars when drunk, or the Barry that crashes cars when drunk.
Or one who lives in Barry: https://clwbpeldroed.org/2019/01/16/macauley-southam-hales-football-league-interest/

Supposedly showing an interest in Barry Town United's Macauley Southam-Hales.

Barry could feel liked we've dished out a penalty by taking their promising youngster. I'd hope they wouldn't take it like that, but then again, why wouldn't they?
