It started out with rumours Wolves had made a bid and it was accepted, and the sky was falling. That turned out to be complete bollocks. It was pointed out at the time that due to an un23 game with Chelsea, he wasn't even eligible to play for Wolves. Now the story is Chelsea are recalling him and loaning him to Wolves. I'm not sure if the ineligibility thing has been refuted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if so, how the f*** would they know? It was actually BT Sport, I was watching. Their reporter at the ground said he had spoken to a “club official” and that there would be an announcement at HT. I agree it sounds odd but that’s the story the express ran. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1067679/Aston-Villa-transfer-news-Chelsea-Tammy-Abraham/amp Quote According to BT Sport reporter Chris Ford, Villa will confirm to fans at half-time of their FA Cup clash with Swansea. And it's expected to be bad news as they are poised to confirm Abraham is leaving the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 So, did they announce at half time today that Abraham would be leaving? If so, why on earth would anyone be so stupid to do that? I'm guessing that didn't happen but the suggestion that it would is just insane. Maybe the guy who said it would happen was being trusted with that information just to suss him out as someone who gobs off too much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted January 5, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted January 5, 2019 Lol that would have been a ridiculous thing to announce at half time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilko154 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 No they didn't announce anything at half time. Smith said in his post match interview that no one has told him Abraham has left, he had heard he was watching at Villa Park today (poor lad) and that he expected to see him in training on Monday. We will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junxs Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Can't believe the BT reporter fell for that, since when in the history of football has there ever been a half time announcement? (other than the winner of some random kids tournament going on at the time on the pitch) Chris Ford has been well and truly had 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Smith has just said that he doesn't think Tammy has played his last game for us. He was at training yesterday the game today and expects him at training on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villatillidie1980 Posted January 5, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted January 5, 2019 Losing Tammy is a big loss. Assuming it is to happen, we need to replace him with a proven goal scorer because I fear our goals are about to dry up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Just now, Stevo985 said: It wasn't complete bollocks. Yeah wolves bid Chelsea rejected the offer. But i have a feeling they may loan him to wolves now. Was surprising why no other premier league club made a loan bid for him earlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is going too. His head has been swayed I think. I might be biased but I think its a pointless move. Wolves are not going to get in top 6 it will be mid table football. Smith and co have him in the form of his life. He could get a bigger move in the summer I feel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Sounds like some kind of money management for some reason if this “loan” goes through. I expect it’s actually a purchase in all but name for reasons that suit Chelsea or Wolves. Just waiting on Fifa approval before it goes through is my assumption.

The dingles will find out what it’s like to hit that celing that we used to repeatedly bang our heads on.
