Watford Rumours:


-Watford to sign Shrewsbury Town striker James Collins for a fee of £400k, The Irish striker is away on international duty but will sign for the Hornets when he returns.


-Watford hope to sign QPR duo Heidar Helguson and Tommy Smith on a season-long loan. The Hornets hope to have their former legends back in august.(14)(19) 


 
There was a rumour chris iwlumo might sign for us at afc bournemouth was written on here is there anychance of that happeningYour source then?Helguson and Smith are not returning to Watford fact! Now will all deluded Watford fans, which seems to be the majority just get over it! They are gone and arent returning!Why would qpr want to keep helguson and smith? Their good players but they have cisse,zamora etc upfront and smith hasnt played in ages"They're gone and aren't returning". Even if they're not coming back this window I'd say there's a good chance that Smith will come back to us.

Barnsley are to sign Frank Nouble if no other offer comes in from any bigger clubs. Reds also looking at former Barnsley players Daniel Bogdanovic and Brain Howard, who have recently been released Reading and Blackpool, not definite though.(3)(23)R U same person who posted same post last week?Happy to see Howard back in the ChampionshipPretty sure its mark howard, who was released from blackpool near january and went to sheffeild unitedFrank Nouble....The fella that hasn't bagged for us in 2 loan spells?Brian howard was released from reading...Frank nouble is fast bit will not solve our goals for crisis. Imagine he will be a 12 goal a season man of that. Butterfield needs to make a decision and either stay or go. On Barnsley web interview was stated his agent has not been in touch at all.Not mark howard you spoonMore like frankie Howard, titter ye not misses!!!Yep you get good support but look at your position.nearly best supported club in the blue square mate so wind it in.

New Sydney FC Manager (Tony Popovic) wants to raid his old club Crystal Palace FC for Aussie Mile Jedinak to be his midfield general(3)(17)It's the middle of the A league season mate, don't think the aussie transfer window is currently open.A league season just finished...Popovic is Western Sydney Manager not Sydney FC. Don't see Jedinak coming home to either team.Firstly he's the manager of the new Western Sydney A-League franchise, not Sydney FC. Sydney FC are now managed by ex Tottenham and Norwich player Ian Crook.
Secondly as the new franchise is being owned and run by the actual league I doubt they'd fork out the money to cover Jedinak's wages while the clubs in its infancy, even though he may get a few more people through the gates.
And lastly why on earth would he give up a spot in a good championship team to drop back quite a few levels to the A-League, it's just not going to happen!

 


06 Jun 2012 19:02:03
Bradford will sign free agent Chris Hackett in the next 48 hours after his release from Millwall.

down a contract from the Terriers,
when his contract expired with parent
club, Plymouth Argyle, this
summer and he is is now looking for a
new club(19)(5)Local rag=factWhy would Huddersfield sell Ridehalgh on a free with a year left on his contract?Damien johnson has signed a contract at fleetwood town.

Notts County are keen to sign former Sunderland striker Oumare Tounkara. The frontman has spent the last two seasons on loan at Oldham.(12)(6)Doubt it he will sign a one year deal with oldham when he returns from holiday next weekWe notts county dont want rubbish strikers.No, but you're willing to pay them £4.5k, PER WEEK!Quite right youve got enough all readyOldham will sign tounkara and former Sunderland team mate andy Reid in coming weeksAgreed, we need a striker that could do well for us not strikers to sit on the bench (mike grella) forte wouldnt be bad but he did only have one good game and that was against charltonIs that the same Andy Reid that plays for Nottingham Forest?

Jan Vertonghen to Arsenal?

Arsenal are planning a double Dutch swoop for Ajax pair Jan Vertonghen and Maarten Stekelenburg in the summer.(12)(41)Maarten Stekelenburg plays for RomaApart from the fact Vertonghen has stated today he expects to be moving to Spurs (The Independent) I'm sure this is a solid rumour ;-)Becuase arsenal are known for spending money - vertoghen 8 million and stekelenberg cost roma like 20 milion there not going to let him go cheapStekelenburg hasnt been at roma long so he wont be going and us spurs fans are very happy that we are close to signing Vertonghen.so stop dreaming.another ad gooner on ere.place is full of them ..u lot spend less then us and thats saying sumthingDouble dutch swoop?
If you mean the dutch league, Stekelenburg plays in Italy and if you mean nationality, Vertonghen is Belgian.Being an Arsenal fan i find it hilarious that Spurs fans can even begin saying anything negative towards us as we all know you are the greatest Buyers of all time NOT i mean you have amassed a great number of foreign imports just as many as us over the years but have ZILCH and i mean ZILCH Prem Titles to show for it our transfer policy works ie VIERA PIRES HENRY WILTORD LAUREN EDU FLAMINI RVP OVERMARS PETIT the list goes on compared to your down and out Foreign signings what im trying to say is stop chatting pure and utter rubbish about the way we spend our cash even our current so called flops dealt with your shambles of a side you can have Vertonghen keep Ade2leftfeetbayor and still you will be left with egg on your faces .Stekelenberg plays for Roma, and Roma didnt pay 20 Million for him they paid 5 MillionWhy on earth would you go for Stekelenberg? It's not as if you need to replace your keeper is it?Somebody clearly hasn't got their facts right!!
FAIL!

 


06 Jun 2012 18:07:55
Bradford will follow up the signing of Rory McArdle by signing Liam Ridehalgh on a free from Huddersfield and Tom Barkhuizen from Blackpool on a season long loan deal with a view to a permanent move.(9)(12)Barkhuisen highly rated at Blackpool and will be loaned to someone bigger than Bradford, most likely a League 1 club if he is loaned out, he was firing goals all over last season for Hereford in league 2.Ridehalgh isnt on a freeRidehalgh still under contract with Huddersfield so a fee would be required.Huddersfield might just want him off their pay roll if Grayson doesn't see a role for him next season.

Unlikely to be earning a huge amount (in footballer's terms) but in the new era of salary caps it all counts.

He has been out on loan and could probably be loaned out again for the remainder of his contract but if there is a club prepared to offer him a longer term contract now it would be doing right for the player as well as removing his salary cost from the equation.Ridehalgh is under 23 so even if he was on a free it would go to a tribunalSomeone bigger than bradford ??
Blackpool have some room to talk.If it wasnt for the away fans attending games at blackpool with good support city would have far bigger attaendances than blackpool.:) wont be long before we are back up where we belong.!Ridehalgh wont go on a free, hes still under contract and is under 23years oldOur away stand is 1800 and didn't sell out most games last season! Bradford are the example of how not to run a football club.

 


06 Jun 2012 18:19:02

Newcastle are lining up a move for highly-rated Coventry City midfielder Gael Bigirimana.

The 18-year-old enjoyed an impressive first season in the Coventry first-team this term, making 28 appearances in all competitions for the Sky Blues.
LiamsBiz(14)(7)Is he good ?If you think we robbed you when we sold you leon best for 2.2mil, just wait till you see how far out of his depth this kid is. he will be playing non league in 2 years.He has the potential to be great but atm he is still learning

James Chambers and Chris Hackett are rumoured to be in talks with league one side Walsall

Walsall goalkeeper James Walker is rumoured to be leaving the league one side due to him not wanting to move back to the midlands from Essex which is part of his new contract offer

Former Man City Goalkeeper Gunnar Nielsen is being linked with the Saddlers to be Walkers replacement(6)(2)Hackett ? not very good should suit a relegation battle !! must be trueDid you see what Gunnar Nielsen was like at tranmere. Thats why he was released by man city!Chris hackett going to bradford mate !Hasnt walker alrady said hes staying hmm check ur facts btw im not a walsall fanWalker said he wanted to stay at Walsall before he was offered a contract, but at the moment he lives in Essex and was allowed to travel up to the midlands for matches/ training
But his new contract offer includes in it that he has to move to the midlands from Essex

 


06 Jun 2012 17:35:54
Adam johnson will be a Newcastle player next season,he is gutted about the euros and wants to join a side where he will be a regular(17)(35)That would be good for everyone.
Jonas hasnt got the pace to break forward every game but he will be a very good defensive midfielder.Then Johnson should be able to show off his tricks and show man city what they have lost great signing.Sorry to say but its well known that his family are saying him and his agent are talking to sunderland and the deal is close to being agreed, a loan with a view to buy, sorry to burst your bubble SGBSTypical SMB his "family are saying him" makes no sense whats so ever. and its a well known fact tht he was born in sunderland yes but he grew up supporting newcastle so sorry to burst your bubbleUnless either club are prepared to stump up £15 millin, he isn't going anywhere - forget loan to buy, City will only sell.

 


06 Jun 2012 17:28:39
Nigel Adkins is to attend a select few Euro 2012 matches and will be in Ukraine Monday, not to watch England in Donetsk, but Ukraine vs Sweden in Kiev. Specifically to watch Ola Toivonen, but you would assume all managers go out there with an open mind and could notice players they hadn't intended to scout.(12)(4)If that is true, I suspect there could be some major announcements from Saints before the weekend.

 


06 Jun 2012 17:20:32
yeovil are chasing torquay utds winger Danny Stevens. johnson failed to sign him when he was manager at peterbrough, and has always been an admirer, a formal bid hasnt been made yet, but watch this space(2)(5)Yeovil don't have money to spend so they won't be putting any bids in for any players!!I heard this story 3 days ago in the harold express in torbayIncorrect... Yeovil DO have money to spend... it is by no means a substantial amount, but certainly enough to bring in two or three contracted players due to successive years of profit... and as we all know, GJ cant work without a little cash along the way so dont rule it out... but Danny Stevens is not somebody i would expect to join us... purchased players may include Nathan Smith though

 


06 Jun 2012 17:20:31

Paul Anderson to Blackpool?

PAUL Anderson is today expected to complete a move to Blackpool, as Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cotterill continues to see his hands tied by the club's uncertain financial future.

The Reds boss was keen to offer the versatile winger a new deal to remain at the City Ground.
LiamsBiz(13)(7)Not today they won't he on holiday at the minute for 2weeksThe sooner we get rid of Anderson the better. He had a shocker last season. Ive never seen such a defensive winger.He wont be defensive at blackpool, we dont play that way

 


06 Jun 2012 17:14:27
West Ham interested in David Stockdale

West Ham have been linked with a move for Fulham keeper David Stockdale.

With Robert Green’s future at Upton Park still uncertain as he out of contract, manager Sam Allardyce may be in the market for another stopper and it has been suggested Stockdale may be an option.

The 26-year-old has been unable to dislodge Mark Schwarzer as the number one at Craven Cottage but the Hammers may have to pay as much as £5m for his services.
LiamsBiz(10)(10)No chance will Stockdale leave Fulham,Stockdale will not leave Fulham permanently.

 


06 Jun 2012 17:13:00
QPR interested in Robert Green

Chairman David Gold says the 32 year-old has failed to agree new terms, opening the way for Queens Park Rangers and West Bromwich Albion to fight for his services. He has also attracted interest from Spanish club Malaga.
LiamBiz(16)(5)Robert Green?!

 


06 Jun 2012 17:09:17
Tim Cahill to Al Nasr?

Everton midfielder Tim Cahill is not ruling out a move to the Middle East amid speculation linking him with Saudi Arabian giants Al Nasr.

The Australian is reportedly a key target for the club this summer, with reports suggesting he could earn up to £2.5million for one season if he completed a move.

Cahill has played numerous times in the Middle East while representing his country and the 32-year-old, who is contracted at Goodison Park until 2014, has made no secret of his admiration for the region.

"I know what the experience is like. I have lived and breathed it," he told AAP.

"I have played in two Asia Cups and I have got great connections with a lot of important people overseas.

"I come on holiday in the Middle East a lot and I embrace the weather and the culture.''
LiamsBiz(11)(10)2.5 million is less than 50 grand a week which he already earns at everton!Didn't he reject an offer from the middle eastTim cahill is our highest paid player on 80,000 a week

 


06 Jun 2012 17:08:36
Millwall and Ipswich are leading the chase to sign Peterborough striker Paul Taylor.(8)(14)Wrong he's only leaving for a prem clubIm a life long millwall fan but moved to boro 12 years ago, and can confirm he aint going to us and will probably go everton.I can't see him making it in the premiership next season. I don't know what premiership club would want him anyway.Paul Taylor is an Evertonian, born in Walton, Liverpool that is not Peterborough, it would be his dream to play for the club he has supported since his childhood.Not good enough for the Premier League.

 


06 Jun 2012 17:05:25
Burton Albion are in talks with Liam chilvers and Lionel ainsworth about possible permanent moves to the club.(6)(9)Unlikely as both linked with port valeVale have no money so i cant see it
I think Ainsworth will sign for burton tho

 


06 Jun 2012 17:04:45
Newcastle interested in Douglas

Reports have emerged that Newcastle United are actively discussing a move for FC Twente defender Douglas.

The Evening Chronicle says United’s overwhelming priority is to sign a centre-back this summer, and there has already been dialogue about FC Twente defender Douglas.

The Brazilian-born defender has a Dutch passport and has been on Newcastle’s radar for some time.

Mike Williamson and Fabricio Coloccini have both performed well in the majority of fixtures since Steven Taylor’s Achilles injury, but away games at Fulham and Spurs have increased the theory that United need more back-up for the pair.
LiamsBiz(15)(8)As a replacement for Colo?

West Brom will await Gus Poyets weekend return from family Holiday in Uruquay to open talks. With Swansea and probably Birmingham wanting a new manager,The baggies have asked Brighton for permission to speak to their man as soon as possible.(2)(16)Dont want poyet. huge step backwards.....{Big G Voice} looks like all of us Brighton fans have got to wait now until Gus is back, Spoken to West Brom,Swansea, Birmingham and uncle tom cobblies and all before we know whats going to happen and make a signing.
We still need a goalkeeper, central defender,left and right fullbacks, one or two central midfielders depending on Birdcutt,plus at least two strikers Hope there are still some good players left.Both Eck and Mick mcarthy have houses close to the baggies. maybe paul jewell or phill brown. those are the type of managers that you want to be looking at....A STEP BACKWARDS?...you baggies have one good season in the prem and you start saying stupid things like that! The only reason you finished so high is because those underneath were so damn poor. Have u seen Poyets style of play or know anything about his football philosophy? U could do alot worse. Don't forget Rdm got a champions league medal because he inherited good players, with the poor personnel he had at WBA he was always going to get the tintac. You don't deserve a good manager!To the poster talking about WBA like he actually has a brain. It wasnt really the players playing badly that got rdm the sack Hence why when hodgson changed the tactics with the same players we picked up and finishes 11th and then 10th so yeah poyet would be a step back from the England manager just sayingWow looks like a Brighton fan fell out of his pram.... WBA have had 2 consecutive good seasons and unless I'm mistaken have spent a number of years in the Premiership. Brighton have had how many years in the top flight?? How often do Championship managers make anything of themselves in the top flight? Why would Poyet be any different!If Poyet was any good he would have been snapped up a long time ago--Oh and Brighton would have finished in the top 6 - even Gary Megson was able to do that !2 good seasons actually !Poyet would be a huge step upAs a Brighton fan, although poyet is a very good manager, with potential to be a brilliant one, he is not ready for the prem IMO. He needs a few more seasons with us (hopefully getting promotion!).Poyet is a mediocre lower league manager who would not last 6 months in the premier league. He aint bad but he aint that good eitherLooks like Steve Clarke

 


06 Jun 2012 16:55:14
Keith Curle is today and tommorow talking to four transfer targets which are Goalkeeper Bartosz Bialkowski, Defender Alex Bruce, Midfielder Gary Liddle and Striker Mike Grella but he is also looking at Wycombe striker Stuart Beavon and Barnet stiker Izale Mcleod(4)(9)Get a grip! Stuart Beavon isn't signing for Notts County ..... He's rumoured to have been speaking to Milwall, Cardiff, Charlton & Sheffield United.

Sheffield united look set to let Stephen Quinn at least have talks with Ipswich after a fee believed to be around the 300-400k mark has been agreed. This money will be spent on waged for players that are out of contract and would we willing to play for the club with names like Frank Moussa and Dave Kitson be involved. United will not replace Kevin MacDonald if he doesn't resign for united DW has been told by John Pemberton that Elliott Whitehouse if ready to make the step up to first team action along side Joe Ironside.(8)(5)Correct about Stephen Quinn, although i've been told the fee is a bit higher, 400k upfront, 750k after appearances. Set to join Ipswich late this week, or early next week.It's 250k rising to 500!

I understand they are talking to Yakubu, but are not hopeful, him and Cisse up front would be a powerful battering ram against most defences. also heard about Clyne, Moses,Rodiegga and Gyan. Lets hope all the Samba talk isn't only talk.(3)(7)Moses and Rodallega can do a lot better than QPR, they would see it as a big step down.

Dont believe anything press say regarding fulham incoming transfers bar chadli it's all rubbish .
Dempsey will choose from psg , lile , lyon , man u n arsenal . Dembele will stay , chadli will join after his vacation n could be joined by felliw belgium kevin mirallas . They are also interested in resurecting a deal for gingac as pogrebnyak has got greedy , maxi lopez is an outside chance as is mexes from milan. Santa cruz will join qpr but taiwo will not n will instead join benfica , qpr look set to lose out on rob green but may move for spurs keeper gomez , makimwa from lazio n forlan of inter are on mark hughe's shopping list as is adam johnston. Chelsea will complete hulk deal n malouda wants to stay local but wants 1st team football which has alerted fulham n qpr as he is settled living in sw london suberb wimbledon .brentford will try to sigh bh riise from fulham n frode bodde n craig davis.(2)(12)Gingac wont sign for fuhlam, he thinks he's gods gift. He said in January he wouldn't sign for Everton because he didn't think they were a big enough club and he wouldn't even get in there side right now.Oh wombles we love youGignac was shown around last summer and was going to sign for Fulham only for Marseille to pull the plug because they were not able to finance and secure Amauri (their replacement). So plenty of chance that it could happen. Especially as the bit about Pogrebnyak is true.Being a realistic QPR fan not a chance we would get forlan or malouda, defoe would be a more likely striker as he a london boy and would prefer to stay close to home,but i like the sounds of these rumours.but how reliable is your source.Dempsey will stay in england unless psg offer thousandsThousands! thats nothing...Sorry lolLille are most likely to sign Clint Dempsey as a replacement for both Joe Cole and Eden Hazard.

Hughton to be named Norwich manager within the next 48 hours...

His plans are to bring in 6 or 7 new players to replace the players likely to leave, and the ones who have already been released.

Possible signings are; Chris Gunter (Nottingham Forest), Curtis Davies (Birmingham), Luke Chambers (Nottingham Forest, Danny Rose (Spurs), Danny Guthrie (Free Agent), Robert Snodgrass (Leeds), Mohammed Abdellaoue (Hannover), John Guidetti (Man City - Loan).

Hughton may be the key factor in signing Danny Guthrie on a free, after managing him during his time at Newcastle.(20)(11)All are fairly realistic.The only likely 2 are guthurie and davis. These are all the names shouted out when Lambert was in charge. Good luck too him at aston villa and he's welcome to snodgrassAll may be realistic, but they are the same names that people kept banging on about while Lambert was manager. Hughton will have his own targets. The only names on that list not heavily linked before are Danny Rose and Guthrie. Sounds very much like recycling and guess work to me....All good signings! Wreaks of Lambert type players! Board need to back him or it could be a tough season!!Not Snodgrass, come on, he's not good enough for the premier leagueThey wont back him though. All they want is to stay out of debt.

Watford rumoured to have placed a £850,000 bid for reading's Simon Church.
Reading have been rumoured to come back with an improved bid for mariappa. cash + Joseph Mills(13)(16)Watford have not got the finances to spend that on one playerNo wat would watford bid over 500,000 for one player are you kidding me!850 000 for church, Nick Hammond works his magic again
MrRfcWhy cant we just offer 1.5m, Church and Joseph Mills for Mariappa?Thank god he's a terrible striker but he's rated 2m so good luck with 850kYes Reading good luck with £850k! Fat chance you'll ever get that.....yet alone £2m!....Simon Church is not a terrible striker. He's a good finisher, and has pace and strength. He will get better with more work on his play outside the box, and the extra confidence that a consistent run of games would bring.Watford don't have that much money they will only buy him if we get MariappaChurch is a good player but he never plays and I think he's got a good future but we won't sell him we want at least 1 million

He'll spend his entire contract sitting in the stands, injured and draining what little money PNE have left.Relax its just a rumourNoo come on Alan Knill we need this man!Reason for lack of games was cruciate injury, bc fans divided over loosing him.

Freddy Eastwood rumours are not true(11)(8)Hope none of these are true!Weale, clarke, and mcecerley are decent. the others would be rubbish signingsWhere have you got these Yeovil targets from?Andrew Taylor isnt a free agent and he's decent?!Someone has obviously gone on to the PFA list and listed those who are out of contract!Isn't that basically what GJ will be doing - searching for free agents

 


06 Jun 2012 12:40:30
Swindon Town FC - All of the rumours on here regards to Swindon are rubbish, apart from 1 Williams will be unveiled when he officialy leaves Yeovil, he has already signed for Town.

Some of the outgoing rumours do have truth, Northampton Town do want Chibo and Kerouche.

Magera is wanted at the club and will be back if Bostock isnt signed, however Bostock signing will signal Magera leaving.

J smith is wanted by Barnet, as is Devera, PDC will keep Devera, but Smith will leave.

Swindon have bids in for 6 players at the moment, they are hoping to get at least 3 of them in before the players come back to pre season. PDC wants the majority of the changes done quickly to allow a full pre season and get the fitness right.(11)(2)How do you know this?J Smith wanted by TranmereAnd you know all this for certain how? You will know no more than PDC and J Wray have said.
Yes it does look like Williams will sign, there is also some truth in the club looking at Hayes...again this is in the press. Jay Mceverley looks like he may be signing...again this is common knowledge especially after his successful loan period. Everyone who follows Swindon will know they want to bring Bostock back..however this will probably be a loan deal of some kind especially in the initial stage.
PDC has said there is still a future for Magera at the club..however this has nothing to do with the Bostock situation..PDC said "I will see how he looks in training, maybe there is still something here for him...we will have to see"....
As for the rest of what you said I find it very unlikely that J Smith will go to Barnet!! I'm also sure they would love to have Devera back..he was after all their player of the season and most improved player of the season, he is however very much part of PDC's plans. As for the bids for 6 players...we all know that PDC has said he wants 7 or 8 NEW players in...he said so after signing his new 2 year extension. So if this does not include Bostock and Mceverley who were already here on loan and would not be termed as a "new" players then it doesn't take a genius to work out that means he would like another 6 players in.
However if you read his statement carefully he said "I would be delighted if I can have 80% of my targets in before pre-season, the others MAY have to wait until January".
So if all of the rumours regarding Swindon on here are lies why have you simply repeated a lot of them? Yes there is a load of nonsense rumours on here...after all the club cannot have a squad of 400 players!! but not all, I would be interested where you have got your information regarding Smith / Devera from...I think this is no more accurate than a lot of rubbish on here...in short no better than the rumours you have criticised yourself.Well my answer to you is wait and see my friend, the info has come from someone I know within the club, when I say six bids for players, that doesn't include JM, Bostock, and bids mean cash or cash + players.. The bids are in and 2 will be announced within the next two weeks if it all goes well, Williams HAS signed a pre contract its a done deal. Smith is being watched by several clubs as it has been leaked out who is available and he is one of them. You are right about Jo Jo Jo Jo Jo Jo Devera, he is a big part of PDC's plans, that doesn't mean other teams are interested. As for the 6-8 players, I read that too, but I am telling you they are identified and being negotiated on right this minute !So who are the 6-8 players?Obviously Swindon will sign someone in the next 2 weeks!! Then he can come on here and say "See...I was right"!! ....some people!!

Reading are ready to improve thier £2million offer for Watford defender Adrian Mariappa.(19)(14)Getting bored of theses posts as nothing new has been stated. Seems to be a lot of Football Manager type people writing posts which could be found on Sky Sports News. As seriously looking back over the past few weeks RFC have been linked with everyone except Ronaldo and Messi (but i am sure my this evening someones uncles pets digs cousin from Tilehurst knows someone who knows!). Mariappa could potentially be a great signing but not proven at the highest level (and NO playing for Jamaica does not count). Carlos Sanchez also is far to good for RFC and would demand far too high wages. Same quality players at RFC level will come in. Possibly a loan candidate or two lets wait and see. All I will say is in Brain McDermott we trust! Back the boys next season (closet fans) and not boo them or please dont renew so I can get a season ticket for my daughter in Y22 and not have to both move to Y19!Mariappa has played in the premier league. And is arguably one of the, if not the best centre half in the championship. He would be a great signing for reading.Mariappa has had a season in the premier league in season 07, giving him more experience than the rest of oyur team"Mariappa has had a season in the premier league in season 07, giving him more experience than the rest of of your team"

Apart from perhaps jason roberts and ian harte!Alan pardew could possibly make another bid for mariappa after failing in January, 3.5 mil bid was accepted but mapps didn't agree personal terms same with WiganLeigertwood has played in the premier league, as has Kebe, Brynjar gunnarson, Ian Harte and Jason Roberts so I think not pal. Ok the squad lacks premier league experience but they have more than Mariappa doesDon't forget Federici.Carlos Sanchez far too good for RFC? Good one buddy we've pretty much signed him.

Southampton are set to sign Bayern Munich winger Dale Jennings for around £800,000(28)(8)He has only been in the B side for a year & still has aspirations for the full team so I can't see this happening, but he is a decent young talent & fits in with Saints ethicsThat would be a really good signing. I remember watching him against us at Tranmere when he scored a peach of a goal and being really impressed. Came home and watched some of is other goals on u tube which were equally as good. young and skillful he would mould into the Saints style - not been at Bayern very long though so don't know why that might not be working out. Thought it a bit strange to go from Tranmere to Bayern at the time!Thought he had a serious injusry last year. So long as he gets through medical - would be a good signing. Not the first time we have been linked with him.

 


06 Jun 2012 10:50:24
Striker Chris Beardsley is in talks with Shrewsbury about a possible move after he left Stevenage.

JB(7)(15)We have better strikers than him?Yeah agreed, i dont think he would be a good signing, just a rumour i heard.

JBBeardsley doesn't score many goals but he can score but he can hold the ball well and pyhsically strong. He can score important goals.Beardsley is as good as any other striker in league 1.I am a Stevenage Fan.

i do not rate Beardsley at all. I think he is a shocking striker, he is a moaner, and if he was taking a penalty, he would still try and hold the ball upGornell does everything this guy does. no need for him.We don't need him

Talented youngster James Ward-Prowse will join Burnley has part of the deal that will bring Jay Rodruiguiz to the saints

source:radio solent(3)(28)Could see this as a possible loan deal but not as a transfer, as it somewhat go against Saints policy of bringing through youngsters into the first team.I can't see this happening at all, JWP embodies the youth to first team strategy that Southampton are trying to implement. Also he has recently signed a new deal and been promoted to the first team next season.5mill plus jwp would be a good dealNo way. Unless its a loan for first team experience. JWP is one of our most exciting prospects.From what i hear its a loan deal for full season and then back to us ready for the first teamCan't see this happening he is apparently a midfielder and we already have Hewitt and Howieson who are on the brink of breaking into the burnley first team and themselves are exciting talents.If its true then i hope its just a season long loan. would much rather they take hammond or chaplowNo chance. Maybe a loan, but permanent, no. Dodd has said that, for his age, he rates him higher than both Walcott and Oxlade-Chamberlain.Yeah and Man city and man utd have been to watch him play so he probs more gonna e bigger than these Burnley lot

Huddersfield :- Signings of Gai Assulin and Giles Barnes are set to be complete by the end of the week. To counteract the offensive manner, grayson is set to move for Miles Addison, for much needed hight in cm as competition for johnson and to cover at CB if needed(8)(10)You aren't getting assulin! He is either going to Brighton or to GermanyGai was seen seen withe glyn snodin down at the galpharm on friday evening. Snodin was present as simon grayson was away on a long weekend break. Nigel Clibbens, Chief exec, was also present (car was in the car park) he normally works out of office and as in past transfers, only come in house during negotiationsNegotiations with johnson have endedThere is no johnson in centre mid, he hasn't been able to agree a deal!Is it a coincidence that Myles Addison's father is an advisor to the Venkys at Blackburn?

I fail to see how he would add anything to Huddersfield's existing defence or even its understrength midfield.

06 Jun 2012 09:39:53
Ricardo Quaresma has appeared as a target for quite a few Premier League clubs, with Newcastle, Swansea, Everton and newly-promoted Southampton in the running for the Beşiktaş winger.

After enduring a disappointing few years amongst the ranks of Barcelona, Inter Milan and Chelsea, Quaresma has recently found form in Turkey and has found his way into Portugal's Euro 2012 squad.

Quaresma, who will be 29 in September, will cost any potential bidders around £5m.(3)(15)Doubtful that Saints are interested. Bit old for the young Saints team and definately not the right temperamentCouldn't see pardew putting a bid in for someone ageing and who hasn't proved his worth. Everton could be realistic.If you couldn't see padrew going for him; who seems to want anything that moves, how could you see moyes going for him?Don't want him to much moneyHe doesnt fit in with ethics

According to Kevin Affleck, who has sources very close to WFC and is the one spreading the news of the takeover, Reading have walked away from the Mariappa bid. I'm not saying it's a fact, but usually what he says happens and it wouldn't surprise me if Mariappa is not a Reading player next season.(8)(6)Yeh I saw that but he is ultimately bias and used to work for The Watford Observer so is just going by what they've been told by the club. We won't know anything till next week anyway as Mariappa is due to play for Jamaica on Friday.Ah same Kevin that said Watford would have new owners last week. This Kevin guy talks rubbish.Take no notice, this fella has no more idea than any of us.Takeovers don't just happen overnightThere is no takeover. No more needs to be said

redknapp to be booted out of spurs to be replaced my martinez then harry 4 england after roy is sacked after losing all 3 group games. just a hunch i have(18)(36)Total rubbish mr.hunch!I think Trevor Brooking and Co already have realised what a mistake they have made by not appointing Harry Redknapp. Cloughie scenario again. I don't rate Roy to do a good job and after watching Harry on the tv yesterday and listened to his views England have made their second biggest mistake in my lifetime. They will not win another Major Tournament until they appoint the peoples choice as Manager.Roy is not expected to do anything in the Euro's. In fact is job is safe until after the next World Cup. His remit is to build the a squad for that World Cup, the two major tournaments between now and then are just to be used as building blocks for experience etc.Is that you Rio?, honestly give it up sonWhat the FA to admit they were wrong.... never gonna happenMartinez is going nowhere this season, He is staying at Wigan. Maybe next summer but not this year.Harry will be at Spurs next seasonEveryone should be backing roy hodgson!he is the new england manager,so give him a chance instead of slagging him off b4 a ball has been kicked!Too true..it's bad enough the press in this Country go out of their way every tournament to ruin our chances without so called "fans" getting on their backs...ok Roy may not be your choice...so what..pick your rattles up and get behind the team.Roy will surprise a few in his reign as England Manager. Unfortunately the 'no smoke without fire' issues mean Harry will NEVER be seriously considered by the FA for an England position. They consider him unmanageable.

cisse off to BIG euro club cabaye to man u and tiote to chelsea(19)(14)Sounds like a sour sunderland fan to meWell cisse pledge his future to the toon, and cabaye not going anywhere he is settling into life in the northeast tiote loves the geordie faithful nd is loved by them non wil go anywhereIts all about moneyCisse can't move until January at the earliest due to Fifa rulings about clubs only being allowed to play for no more than 2 clubs in a 12 month period. Cabaye also admitted that he is getting used to becoming a toon hero. No truth to this rumour!Money talks, would cisse, cabaye, tiote turn down man utd, city and chelsea if they came in for them and offered them high wages? of course they wouldn't, already well known that tiote and ba are chelsea bound, cabaye will be a man utd player and cisse will go to a top european club whether its in england or abroad

Leyton Orient boss Russell Slade will finally sign a striker this week.

Slade has approached the likes of Paul Hayes and Patrick Agyemang in recent weeks, but due to budget cutbacks he will instead turn to last seasons loanee Calvin Andrew.(6)(8)This is still that funny joke going round! Might as well not bother siging him and save money! Got to say have not been inspired so far!
What is the point of keep going if we only get worse every yearThis is not going to happenThis calvin andrews rumour just wont go way, but know from insider that we are not after him.Another Joke Post. I would be extremely surprised if Calvin Andrew were to sign.

Slade will bring in a proven goalscorer.Just been informed that our (Orient) next signing has been agreed and will be announced later this afternoon (6th June).What time and who?Well that happened didn't it. Where's this signing that we're supposedly announcing then?Clearly didnt happen.Players who be great at O's-
Izale Mcleod
Shaun Harrad
Chris Zebroski
Paul Hayes
Liam Hearn
Damien ReevesMy brother told me someone was gonna sign- it was on Eddie Hearn's twitter feed. Little did my bro know that he was announcing a new signing for his Prize Fighter boxing thing. Dipstick!

 


06 Jun 2012 08:58:05
Jermaine Easter at Swindon doubt it very much as he messed Swindon about 2/3 seasons ago.
Same goes for that lump Marvin Morgan he did the same.
Paul Hayes is possible,however Dicanio will surprise a few teams in Division 1 next season(5)(4)It's in all the press about Hayes so we are definatly trying to sign him, agree with you about the other two...don't want them.Morgan is a L2 player and cant see him being successful in L1 but all the stupid rumours going around about signings Hayes is a possibility as stated on our website today and also Williams from Yeovil a potential but as both players are contracted to their current clubs until the end of June there wont be any movement until then. July is always the month for all activity on transfers as players are able to move then.How's di Canio going to surprise everyone then?"But all the STUPID rumours going around about signing hayes is a POSSIBILITY??
I think you mean that the rumours about Easter and Morgan are stupid and won't happen!!
Both Williams and Hayes will very probably happen. As for PDC surprising people I hope so...providing it's for the right reasons!! There are some good players available at the moment and it will be in the last week to ten days of this month before things are sorted out with free signings so they can become official on July 1st.

 


06 Jun 2012 08:36:07
Swindon ins:
Paul hayes,
Andy Williams,
Jon Bostock (Season Loan)
Jay Mceverley.

They are still interested in O'Kane.

These will all be in place before the start of pre-season (Possibly including O'Kane), PDC still has other targets but some of these may have to wait until January.(10)(11)Crickey, on this website, Swindon are after bringing in so many players, they must have 2 teams in the football league. Yawn yawn - see what happens.....Totallt agre about all of the rumours BUT Paul Hayes IS in talks with Swindon...this is in several press issues, Andy Williams is expected to sign on the 1st of July...again the local Swindon Press claim he has all but signed. Bostock had a good loan at Swindon and both the Player and the Club have made no secret of wanting to renew the loan, and Mceveley had a great loan with Swindon and there was no secret made that he was playing to try and get a contract...this was AGAIN publicly stated this week!! so I stand by the post..none of these are names pulled from a hat like a lot of the nonsense on here and those with supposed 'Contacts' within the club who spout off with names grabbed from Wikipedia!! Oh...and Towns interest is on both the BBC and Sky sires if you look back over the last couple of weeks!!

Benitez next Swansea boss, with lee Clark the new Norwich boss(8)(47)Try chris hughton!Why does everybody bang on about Lee Clarke, what has he done?I was joking by the way, didn't mean it in a mean way! He managed Huddersfield last season, then he got sacked, used to be at Norwich in the Roeder yearsYep lee clark defo going to be the manager when chris hughton about to be apointed norwich manager

Two Portsmouth players are being linked with joining their old clubs.

Tal Ben Haim is wanted by former club Maccabi Tel Aviv, the team he started out with playing 85 times and scoring 2 goals before his move to Bolton.

Erik Huseklepp looks likely to move back to Norwegian side Brann. Huseklepp played for Brann between 2005 and 2011 and made a total of 118 appearances scoring 29 goals before joining Bari and then Portsmouth. Portsmouth have put Huseklepp up for sale for £800k after signing him for £1.5m.(6)(4)TBH is stalling on leaving Pompey because he wants his dosh - would be absolutely stunned if he left at all coz seemingly we owe him 2m! Huseklepp should return to Brann, he's okay but now outside our price range. PUP

Sorry
Doyle
Long
Shorey
Hunt
We want new blood and quality all the above ever couldn't cut it or was injured not good enough for Reading fc(6)(12)I wouldnt say Doyle,Hunt and Long couldnt do it they signed for better teams (premier league)You wont be able sign betterAgree maybe long but none of the others especially shorey far too slowLong's better than anyone you've got at the momentShane Long our top goalscorer last season I'm pretty sure he would make the cutIn my humble opinion, Jason Roberts is a better more experienced striker than Long.Our attack would be lightweight in the premier league. We need someone like Pogrebnyak or Stephen Fletcher or I can really see us struggling for goalsLong is easily BPL quality,he's just been injured most of the season"I wouldnt say Doyle,Hunt and Long couldnt do it they signed for better teams (premier league)"
Hunt is a terrible player and the only reason he got in our first team in the premier league is becaue convey got injured and glen little was getting old...

 


06 Jun 2012 08:21:19
Why does my team Reading fc. Never disclose who there after ?
IMO the sports director should leave as its him that is unable to negotiate any deals would love the sig back but as for the rest no thanks you can keep
Doyle
Long
Shorey(1)(13)What? You think Hammond should leave even tho he was so good he got 4.5 mill for matt mills?Doubt they'd wanna go back. Enjoy your season.Because like Swansea you look a bit stupid saying we're agreeing on this player and it doesnt happen.

It also creates unnecessary attention in a player which may mean spending more on the player or someone else signi g them!So they dont tell other clubs who theyre after so we end up with another saga like with Tommy Smith?We don't disclose who we are after because teams prefer to do business that way. Every team who we have sold to or brought from commends the way we do business. And I'd by Sports Director you mean Nick Hammond....Are you mad? He has worked wonders on some deals. We never release info on who we are after or the prices we pay. It's the Reading way."IMO the sports director should leave as its him that is unable to negotiate any deals"

The same nicky hammond who got stupid money for matt mills. The guy does an incredible job. Its a shame a lot of other clubs don't do their business in the same quiet dignified manner rather than doing their business through the media.Shane long is a great player I want him back

Brighton and Derby after Joe Mattock who was recently released by West Brom(14)(4){Big G Voice] Why do people keep putting old news on this site, we all know Mattock is being chased by Brighton Derby and and lots of other clubs i expect, give us some up to date news, one last thing can anyone believe Wibraham would join CP rather than Brighton if he had the choice.Mattock to sign for brighton beginning of next week.Glad we didn't get wilbraham. We need someone with a few more goals in them than him!

 


06 Jun 2012 08:14:37
Portsmouth after 2 strikers for next season to put pressure on Marko Futacs and Ashley Harris for starting roles.
Appletons targets are...
1) Izale Mcleod: 27 year old who scored 32 in 73 for League 2 Barnet, Oxford and Plymouth are said to be after him too.
2) Andrew Williams: 25 year old scored 22 in 72 for Yeovil.
3) Lee Trundle: 35 year old Neath striker. The former Swansea and Bristol City striker has scored 19 in 33 for the Welsh side.
4) Freddy Eastwood: 28 year old who scored 17 in 113 for Coventry. Wanted by Yeovil and Southend.
5) Adebayo Akinfenwa: 30 year old who scored 18 in 39 for Northampton. Also wanted by Yeovil.(6)(18)Andy williams was rubbish for us two seasons ago, but he did score 16 last season. Also he is a very selfish player and moves from club to club to start a 'new challenge'. He has no loyalty what so ever. Also he said he wanted to move closer to his hometown (hereford), so swindon is the most likely destination for him!Freddy is staying at roots hallCome on, we are in Administration, we cannot afford any of these players - even Trundle who is seriously past it now! Looking for younger, eager strikers who will cost zilch and play for the shirt. PUPWilliams probably signing for Swindon Town on July 1st on a free transfer.Yeovil are also interested in izale McLeodYou dont want andy williams believe me, im a glovers fan and his 16 goals is not the full story... occasionally he would do something with real quality but we're talking once every few games he is very greedy and as mentioned before, no loyalty at all he has no reason to leave us and we made him a talking point this season... going to swindon really is a challenge!I'll pay eastwoods fare to get down there if you wantWhy is going to Swindon a real challenge? I'm not a Swindon fan but they certainly seem to be on the up...and Paolo Di Canio is going to have a very successful career as a Manager, despite what many people may feel about him. Swindon Town are going to get the benefit for taking a gamble on him and they may well be left in a very good position (Champonship?) before he leaves. They have a very rich board in place who seem to be backing Paolo Di Canio...if I was a player I think I would be much more inclined to sign for them than I would Yeovil that's for sure.Lee Trundle is signing for Gloucester anyway.Defo dont want to sign Williams! As a Yeovil fan i am glad he left! he may have had a good season last term but he is one of the most dis-loyal players and is unbelievably greedy with the ball!It is interesting though reading back over the Yeovil forum that this was not what was being said by the fans until it was mentioned on their official site that he would not be re-signing for you! IN fact in that article he thanked all of the fans and mentioned that when he had arrived two years earlier he came because he needed a new challenge and now thought the time was right to challenge himself again...at this point it seems to have been seized on by the fans on the forum who twisted that to he uses that as an excuse to leave and that this makes him disloyal....your fans went from loving everything he was doing (Including certain awards he picked up) to thinking he was a lazy, spent most of the time missing from games and was incredibly disloyal!! All over night!! I know us football fans are the most fickle fans in the universe....but you guys seem to be right at the top of the pile!! How much did his goals go towards keeping you up? Soon forgotten wasn't it?He's good when he wants to be but when he was at Bristol rovers he was appalling and if things go wrong at Swindon he'll be back to square 1 and us Yeovil fans are just annoyyed on how disloyal he has been to our club, like most of our players over last couple of years only difference between us and other clubs is we can't afford to pay massive wages and yet we can still stay in league 1A new challenge? Swindon? ha... glad hes gone. Enjoy

Sigurdson Future:
Swansea move for sigurdson is now off.Readings bid for gyfil has been accepted, but Liverpool are more likely to land him.However Sigurdson likes both clubs anyway but prefer to play for Liverpool at the current stage.So if Liverpool don't move Reading will.(14)(10)God up he will go to pool iv not the swans does not like reading came out last week saying hevis waiting to see who the next swans manager and then decide on future cmon why would he go to readingHe would go to Reading because he was brought up at the club, has friends there and likes it a lot there and didn't actually want to leave at the time. The only reason he left was because Reading needed money and also they weren't a premier league club. Now both these reasons aren't there anymore. That is why he may wish to return to Reading. If anyone has no chance i'd say it's Swansea."why would he go to reading"

Because he grew up at reading and was their for several years not six months!Reading are OK but sig will go to liverpoolSigurdson won't come back he's got a chance to play for liverpool He's probably going Liverpool but as a Reading fc fan I want him back he was great at reading so I hope he comes back.

2 pieces of news for Ipswich fans, both regarding Sheffield United players.

As I understand, and what I've been told from a close source within ITFC, is that Stephen Quinn is close to joining town. A fee of 450k rising to 750k depending on appearances etc, was a agreed last week. He's set to sign by Friday/Monday latest, slight delay due to the extra long bank holiday this weekend.

Secondly, Harry Maguire is due to come to ITFC for talks today/tomorrow. A fee of £900k, rising to £1.5million depending on appearances etc again has been agreed. Source close to the player says he's very interested in joining Town, and the deal for him could be concluded by Monday/Tuesday next week!(12)(17)Not a prayer on the Maguire rumour when 2 million was turned down from Newcastle.I call bullYou've been saying this for 2 months now about HM. Real life isn't FIFA by the way. He wouldn't want to go to ITFC when he can play in the PL.Haha Not a sheffield United or Ipswich fan but i know Harry Maguire won't go to ipswich quite simply because the club has no potentialMaguire is worth alot more than that he is a future england internationalIf the club has no potential why did Elliot hewitt sign! When he was linked with big clubs!!As i have said before. he live opposite my grandad and he has told us that he doesnt want to leave as he see's better plays in he position and doesnt want to end up like Slew.

Lambert said so himself.

LambertsLion1967Lucky,lucky Leicsester.Rafeal Van der vaart wants to go to ItalyYeah but villa are saying gabby might need to go to make room for holt so I would rather keep gabby than have holt however if we could have both thats great.

Word is moving fast that Newcastle are moving to sign a young North Korean Jong Il Gwan. Word has it that Derek Llambias was in Korea last year aiming to increase awareness about the club following a massive surge in popularity from the World Cup.

Pak Kwang-ryong was this season the first North Korean to play Champions League football and Newcastle are believed to be looking to expand their scouting operation to find Asian talent in the vein of Shinji Kagawa

Kagawa if you recall, originally moved to Dortmund for around 300k and Newcastle are said to be looking to take the young Korean on a 3 year contract in the hopes of emulating Kagawa's success.

Jong Il Gwan was named the Asian Young Player of the Year in 2010 and features regularly for the North Korean national side.(7)(12)Haha. You can't just compare two players because they're from the same continent you cracker.Llambias in North Korea? You are having a laugh.

North Korea is one of the most secretive Countries in the world and does not allow just anyone in.

 


06 Jun 2012 00:41:31
Harry Maguire in talks with Ipswich in £1.3 million deal(13)(18)Too good for Ipswich!Would like him to come to Ipswich. He looks like a good young player for the future. However I can't see us paying that much for any player.He wont go to ipwich.He has a 550,000 release clause as they didnt know at the start he would perform this well.

Marcel Desailly has been for food with, the Swansea City Chairman, Huw Jenkins in mumbles. Still unclear though if it is just a catch up, as Marcel took his coaching badges with the swans, or if it is something a little more serious.(4)(7)Ian Holloway to Swansea, Jim Gannon from Stockport to Blackpool

 


06 Jun 2012 00:22:05
reliable inside source says "Aaron wilbrahamwill join this week on a free from Norwich. Turned down Brighton and Bristol city in favour of Crystal Palace. Midfielder/striker will be a good link up man when the board eventually stump up enough cash to by the only thing left that we need which is a top notch goalscorer. Should get 3.5 mil for clyne so they wont have to add too much and then maybe we can end up above brighton and millwall where we belong. come on chairman, we respect the way you and your pals are running the club but we have to be a little adventurous. Oh and just in case one of you reads this. try being a bit more forthcoming with info on the website to keep those who count(the fans) in the loop. Thanks(7)(7)Why does every Palace target have to have "turned down Brighton" first? Grow up for heaven's sake. Brighton have NO interest in Wilbraham whatsoever. Good enough player, not knocking him and a good signing for Palace but just not what Brighton are looking for right nowAgree a decent striker is a must and would be nice if we could use Clyne money to go towards one but we have to bear in mind Palace need to break even and last year we made a 5 million loss. I'd like to see AJ back (might bring the best out in Murray or Zaha) spend £20k on wages should be ok as no transfer fee included.I'm a Palace fan and I agree with the 1st reply, every palace rumour seems to say turned down Brighton or Millwalll. We don't like these teams but doesn't mean all our targets choose us over them.I think you've clearly lost what the club are trying to do. Trying to blood our youngsters through! I doubt very highly that Parish and co would ever pay over 3.5 million for a player!Wilbraham is a league one playerWilbraham would be a success in the championship, above poster has obviuosly not seen him play

celtic in talks with hugo rodallega's agent and a deal is set to be done when he comes back from on holiday(10)(25)Highly doubtful as Celtic couldn't pay the wages he's after and he wants to play at a high level such as La Liga

 


05 Jun 2012 23:43:34
Once the takeover is confirmed by Nottingham Forest, their first signings will be Maynard and Bamford in on loan and a offer of 600k for a player they had on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers but it hasn't been confirmed which one yet and also they will once again show interest in signing Peter Whittington from Cardiff CIty in a player cash deal with Chambers going the other way, and there is a rumour being put about that they would like to re-sign Kelvin Wilson from Celtic(10)(29)It was all sounding great until toy mentioned whittingham. Every summer we have the same conversation and it never happens. If whittingham leaves, it will be for lower prem, not us.What a load of rubbish,there is no gauranteed take over and forest cant even offer contracts to players at the moment,it sounds like your living in cloud cookoo landEvery year they whittingham is leaving but hes loyal to cardiff hes the best player there and for years to come so he'll only leave for a prem team plus he signed a new contractTake Wilson, he's one of the slowest players I've ever seen.

There are rumours that derby are looking at unsettled strikers nicky Maynard and Sam baldock of west ham utd. People that read this may think it's ridiculous but in fact this is a possibility of having a lot of truth in it.


Also favourites to sign Michael Jacobs from Northampton town, Paul Dixon is thought to be still discussing person
terms with derby as he has offers from other clubs I.e. Bristol city. Sammy clingan, Marc Pugh, Lewis mcgugan, fegor ogbude, Joe mattock, Martin Paterson, Matty fryatt, kristian Pearce, aidy White, Jon daly, Richard keogh, nick Powell, matt tootle, Ashley Westwood, nick Montgomery have all been mentioned in the mix through forums, twitter and Facebook.


In terms of outs:

Croft
Addison
Severn (Scunthorpe bound)
Bailey
S.Davies
T.Robinson
Unfortunately possibly shackell (maybe burnley)
Maguire
Green (free agent now)

Deeney(5)(13)Deluded derby fan. There is no chance at all you could sign 90% of the players you are mentioning and pretty sure most derby fans would agree with me on thatDerby derby derby your going to sign so many Players how many have u actually signed like I said u ain't that big or good wake upWell this is a site for rumours.Look at the other clubs who are rumoured to be after so many players i.e. Peterbrough,Reading,Leeds & Southhampton to name a few.
We would all like to see some of the names rumoured to be wanted by our own teams.However,most will be just that rumours.
There is a few on the Derby list that I'd like to see the Rams sign but never going to happen.90% your deluded 7 of them play 2 leagues below derby.

Krystian Pearce
Ashley Westwood
Fegor ogude
Michael Jacobs
Aidy White
Matt tootle
Joe Mattock
Daniel Powell
Johnny Russell
Will Grigg

Have all been contacted

Derby county aint that big whoever you are shut up.As we get a onsistent 25,000-30,000 every week come rain and snow.Whether we win or loose.Popularity
shows how big a club is because it recieves more money from ticket sales and Shirts and other Merchandise.

For Example blackpool had 3000-5000 when they were in the championship when they got promotion they had 15,000 which shows people were only interested in the Premiership when they got relegated it drop to 10,000.

Have you seen Middlesborough stadium during match days.Pride park was built using the same style as THE RIVERSIDE so they have around the same capacitys
derby fills theirs out middlesborough barely a stand.
Its already been anounced that due to high popularity of the club if we were toget promoted and stay up during that first season The owneres would increase the size for 15,000-20,000 to be added around the stadium.

We arient a big we are only one of three
West ham,leeds and Deby that are Premiership clubs that arient in the premiership.

Ovbiously now 3 big well known clubs have been relegated Bolton,Wolves and Blackburn it will be interesting to see whether they manage to get a same number of fans.Yes but some of your deluded fans think if there is more than 1 club after them u think u got the given right they will choose you arrogant I'm a Bristol city fan both after dixon but he will choose derby because there bigger utter nonsense mid table derby last few seasons ye massive clubI get what you mean mate.But your safe
there he choose you over us.Unfortunately we wouldnt agree to his contract demands and you did so we are going for free agent Joe mattock.You team is just unfornate that you have bristol rovers awell otherwise you would have alot more fansYe only a few more though lol finally someone with some football knowledge we are all byast towards are team but u got to be realistic Bristol city are after a few players but nothing has come from mcinnes we released 8 players some on good money frees a bit of cash up as for Dixon nothing coming out of Ashton gate

Stockport County interested in Damien Reeves, two BSP central defenders and a left sided goalscorer from League 2. Also wanting to sign Lewis King and would like Joe Edwards on season long loan.(4)(5)You won't get joe edwards if he isn't in first team plans at bristol city yeovil will most probably have first dibs.

matt mills will join celtic despite
interest from bolton wanderers(25)(12)Who ever he joins good luck to them player with bad attitude and we got 5.5m for himTrue he's rubbish carnt believe we payed 5m for him he's not worth 2mI'd let Bolton have him, he's not the type of player Celtic want to be bringing in.

 


05 Jun 2012 22:51:54
From a reliable source Altrincham's Damien Reeves wishes to move up one division and stay local near to his home rather than join a league club and play reserve team football again.(4)(10)It must be Grimsby ,Mansfield or Lincoln then, they are the teams closest to his home in Doncaster.

 


05 Jun 2012 23:01:20
People may laugh at this but it's 100% true: I have a friend who's uncle is a football agent and he said that Ex Huddersfield player Gary Roberts is in talks with League One club Shrewsbury Town.(12)(19)His best mate joe Jacobsen plays for shrewsWhy would anyone laugh at this??Collins still not backNot laughing at this either, sounds ok to meHes already signed 4 either pne or shef weds :{This is not laughable, makes a lot of sense! However, with Mark Wright and Aaron Wilding now signed, we only need one more winger, Ryan Hall or Gary Roberts.That's believable, He's over rated (Huddersfield fan)I doubt Gary Roberts would go to Shrewsbury because the whole reason he didnt sign a contract with town was because he though they wouldnt get promoted and he wants championship football and i think he is championship standard dont get me wrong it would be a good signing for shrewsbury but i just couldnt see it happeningPerhaps he was championship standard when he refused to sign a new contract at the start of last season. Since then he's been unbelievably poor and wouldn't cut it in the higher league now. Would be a good signing for a newly promoted club

English none League: Damien Reeves (Striker)
Ayrshire District League: Ben Lewis (Winger)
Scottish third Division: Martin Boyle (Striker)

Damian Reeves is going to boyhood and hometown club Doncaster, not some tinpot League(4)(9)Reeves not yet sign with Doncaster deal done?I dont think Reeves is with Doncaster yet, looking likely though

Liverpool have a bid of around 8m accepted by Fulham for Clint Dempsey , Peterborough United are close to signing Oldham goalkeeper alex cisak and free agent Danny Swanson , Peterborough are also interested in bringing youngster Adam Morgan in on loan. Arsenal are ready to offer Wonjech Snezczny and some cash to bring Pepe Reina to the Emirates , Liverpool are interested in signing Roberto Soldado And Adam Johnson , Liverpool outs : Martin Skrtel (Inter & Real madrid are interested) Glen Johnson ( Real Madrid showing interest) Dirk Kuyt (already gone to fenerbahce) Maxi ( interested in a move to a spanish team) Jay Spearing ( Wigan or Southampton loan) Luis Suarez (Real Madrid , Barcerlona , Juventus interested but he wants to stay) Brendan rodgers will listen to offers for Andy Carroll.(8)(37)Made up rumour, Wojciech Szczęsny is better than reinaPeterborough not interested in making loan signings. Confirmed by both Darren Ferguson and Darragh MacAnthony weeks ago. None of the previous loans have had any great impact, so club are closing the door on the loan system.We could possibly put a bid in for himRE: 1st reply
On what planet is Szczesny better than Reina?! Reina is world class and szczesny is average..Firstly, suarez doesnt want to stay. secondly, dempsey said he would only leave for a champions league club. thirdly, soldado is a spanish international, playing for a club which gets champs league every year. Stupid. Deluded. ScouserSzczesny is well beter than reina.every fan apart from liverpool fans will say that reina has gone down alot in the last 2 years and szceza is only improvingI've watched Spearing several times this season and he always looks horribly out of his depth. Honestly don't think he's better than Saints have already.Spearing to Wigan? Lol He wouldn't make our bench, dreadful playerSuarez DOES want to stay and rodgers has told the board that suarez cannot be soldPeterborough have won the chase to sign Scottish midfielder Danny Swanson who is out of contract with Dundee UnitedWigan and Fulham are chasing Derby County Striker Theo Robinson For A fee of £1.5 millionIm a lfc fan and yeah i agree reina has had a bad season and is definitely not in the form of his life but that by no means makes szczesny better than him because hes not. reina is a better keeper alough szczesny has a lot to give he is not up to reina's standards! but who knows...he may be one day, we will have to wait and see! LFC.DAN.YNWAI am a neutral fan and I would say currently Reina possibly has the edge on Szczesny.

However, Szczesny is young and improving every season, whereas reina is old and getting progressively worse. I would value Szczesny higher than Reina for that reason, despite Reina being currently slightly better and more reliable. Why would Arsenal commit to Szczesny and develop and bring him up through the ranks and put up wiht his youthful blunders if they were just going to use him in exchange for an older keeper? They will stick with him now as he is only getting better, he loves Arsenal and has the potential to be world class.£8 m for Dempsey - ha - you are totally deludedHow can you take anything seriously when people can't actually spell. Dempsey will go to Arsenal or will stay at the cottage. It does make me laugh. Where do you get these bullsht rumours?Reina is 29, which is in no way old for a keeper. He wasn't at his best last season but still quality. Szczesny is young and might become better than Reina but at the moment Reina is better"Glen Johnson ( Real Madrid showing interest)"
I am sure mourinho is a better judge of player than that, good going forward but considering he's a defender he just can't defend.I love how people think Glen Johnson still cant defend - compared to a centre back no he cant but for a right back he is very good and has improved significantly this seasonHe can't defend. Richards can defend. Johnson just gets caught up the field all the time.

Rotherham United will tomorrow submit a club record bid for an unnamed young international striker, the club are also in discussions with 4 other players to join the Millers.(9)(5)Nahki Wells ?????Will have to wait and see on this one.International Stirker? - I didn't know Rotherham had big links with The Faroe IslandsRobbie Brady the name being heavily linked in the local press.We have approached chesterfield for their striker scott boden, he's quick and quite strong. think he would be a good signing if we could sign him though..... possibly a 20 goal season man. we dont usually have a consistant striker but i believe that he would be. i have seen him play and think he could cause teams problems........ c'mon boden sign for the millers !!!! i know we are not chesterfield class and i know they gave us a 5-0 wooping but with you we can match them !

with coventry city's embargo set to
be lifted the midlands club has turned
their attention back to impressive
young midfielder oliver norwood who is
out of contract this summer.
whether this is a signing or a season
long loan is unknown at this point
but young norwood is passionate
about coventry and has said in the past he would like to stay(11)(7)Mate i know ollie and he is coming to burnley if he has the chance not coventryHe isn't on a free as he signed a new one year deal at Man U. Bfc had offer of 500k turned down as Man U want nearer a million.Sorry mate Oliver Norwood`s coming home to Burnley ....... so dream onHe rejected the contract at man u he said it on twitter cov in talks with Man u over compensation cos he is under 24

Hull City are prepared to pay 800K for Bristol Rovers Mustapha Carayol.(7)(19)I played against him in the fa cup first round and he was massive time! Yap yap yap all game wouldn't shut up, average aswellWhat without a manager?800k what a joke! crazy.Muzzy is well worth 800kHes going to sign for barnsley mateOr Leicester or Barnsley or Middlesborough. Honestly no one knows yet, so sit back and enjoy the ride. Also I highly doubt it'll be 800k as he's only got a year left on his deal.Barnsley you aint got the moneyHull City want him, I know I work at Hull City.

Steven naismith. Is being inquired about by big sam but is willing to pay 3m but rangers want 4 for the scott it is thought sam wont bid 4m as he wants him as a back up insteed of a starter!(6)(16)This story is utter rubbish.
Everton have already inquired, he has a £2m buy out fee in his contract. Likely destination is Goodison Park to link up with Jelavic.
Nice try.Theres a release clause in his contract 2 millionNaismith as a back up? Lolerific.
So you're saying WHU have bucketfuls of talent in the striking department?
Cole, Vaz Te and Maynard wouldn't even get into the Rangers starting 11.Don't talk nonsense any west ham striker would walk into gers starting 11.If Rangers were a English team they would be in the championship at best probably League 1Naismith way too good for spammersIf rangers were in england, which will not happen as turkeys don't vote for xmas, they would be able to put a new tier on ibrox and take attendance from 50000 (for low level) to 75000 (for proper football). Season tickets go from £500 to £1000.
Before sky money, how many english giants can compete? Not including the massive chip on shoulder drive. I think the english TV money has made a few people loose sight of the truly big clubs in world footie. Take the sky money away and you have got Man U, Man C, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea. Most are funded/debted by large investors but the rest are in the unsustainable world that got Rangers in to trouble. Rangers were taken over with £18m of debt. That is the price of an over rated premiership player who might score once in a compo. Generally speaking, it has burst english footie (which I do like) as most players are mercenary overseas players. (Super squad at 2012 Euros ?). Please don't take this as a rant but the fact of the matter is that Rangers and Celtic are massive world clubs due to the worldwide fan base. It might take a little time to establish but if you said Ajax or PSV would not do well, its the same thing really but the scottish teams have a far superior fan base and earning potential when back in the big time. Personally, we are scottish, we do owe lots of people but our level of debt would be laughed at by small 30,000 attendance "giants" currently being subsidised by sky money.
What if Murdoch says I am fed up by the constant hassle in the UK, see ya!!

Dennis bergkamp next swansea manager ;)(18)(17)Didnt know you could get bergkamp on fifa ultimate teamIan Holloway ..Great players don't make good managers...especially when he has had no managerial expierence and has stated that he does not want to manage. Bookies are very clever at making false markets and making a quick buck! The smart money should be on Gus Poyet, he is in South America until the weekend...nothing is coming out of the Brighton camp which is unusual...Poyet is normally the first to say when he does not want a job. Swansea are not saying a word regarding who they want...are they waiting for the weekend before making a move? Alot of people within the Brighton camp are getting twitchy.Eddie Howe will be there by end of next weekNone of you are rigth - Benitez is coming back to the Prem with the Jacks.

Seen him at Sarn Services earlier tonight.I know saying this isn't going to make any difference but seriously Marcel Desailly seen in a restraunt in mumbles with Huw Jenkiins but whether this is just a catch up (as Desailly took some of his coaching badges at the swans) or something more serious?

Yeovil Town to sign former left back and newly capped Jamaican international, Nathan Smith from relegated Chesterfield for an undisclosed fee.(6)(12)How sure are you?Doubt it he said he is looking forward to the promotion challenge with chesterfieldCan't see that happening, Sheridan rates him wellHes got to say that... every player confirms their staying at the club... and then an offer comes in from somebody better...Smithy not going anywhere hopefully ..just need randall to sign ...and some wingers in

Heard rotherhams got betters odds to go up the than the mighty town ........blue armyTeam shaping up well so far but need a really strong midfielder, also what about right back is drew going there or not? Re nathan my gut says that if Sheridan can get a fee he will accept as he did not make best use of him last season.... We would need to replace Griffiths? Still need left winger as well Kevan Hurst?All we need is danny whitaker and mark randall to sign their contracts and we'll be back up in league 1 again this time next yearWhitaker and randell have 1 more year left on there contracts ? So why would chesterfield offer another one ,just yet?Their contracts have finished, Chesterfield have offered 1 year contractsWhittaker and Randall are both out of contract but have been offered new 1 year deals, both should be decent players in league 2 but we still still need a strong aggressive midfielderWhittaker and Randall have both signed one year contracts thankfully!

brentford to sign paul hayes form charlton for 50k
and jake bidwell from everton by the end of the week(7)(13)50k haha err no more like 250kBidwell on loan, presumably? He's just survived the cull of reserve and youth team players so can't see him going anywhere on a permanent deal.Hayes for 50k? I don't think so. Powell should keep hold of him, he has championship experience .Good Paul was shocking towards the end of the seasonBidwell 100% done deal hayes unlikely maybe paynter from leeds or saido berahino permantly or possibly marko mitrovic from chelsea, he was realeased a couple of days agoWe have more chance of getting paynter cos curle our manager at notts as leeds connectionsWe won't get Saido Berahino - He had attitude problems, he thinks he's big time and he and Rosler didn't see eye to eye, thats why his loan was cut short.

Paul Hayes won't get a look in in the Charlton team next season, he didn't get a look in in league 1 so what makes you think he will in the championship!

David Moyes is on holiday so no deal will happen until he is back, Brentford would like him on a permament deal and have discussed with Everton and Bidwell himself, if this cannot be agreed then it will be a season long loan deal."he didn't get a look in in league 1 so what makes you think he will in the championship"

Injuries, we were very lucky last year, that wont happen two seasons on the trot. I think CP learnt from the 'barren' spell of BWP that keeping faith can only go so far, he'll be back in if that happens again.^^ spot on. Notts County and Crawley are also after Hayes and i suspect that they have a bigger budget and more chance of signing him on a higher wage (brentford fan)LOL 50K, you cheeky mongrels. I suppose you want us to throw in his boots too!

 


05 Jun 2012 17:43:47
Southampton to win the race to sign goalkeeper Jack Butland, for £3 million, as they are the only team to have offered him a guarantee of first choice 'keeper within a season(29)(18)^ Hope this is true ^There is no way a newly promoted club will offer a first team guarantee to a 19 yr old goalkeeperIm a saints fan i don't think he will be number 1 davis is still a good keeper and he won't just lie down and give up the number 1 spot he earnt without a fight but if we do get this lad would be a gd sighningYes but he won't want to be guaranteed first choice in the Championship.They may offer him a first-team spot in 12 months (as written) - Kelvin Davis is now 36 and wants another crack at the Premier League (and after being named Championship Keeper of the year also deserves it) but the Saints need to plan for the future - I hope this is true too!It will be great news if Saints do sign Jack Butland, however I can see the lad staying at his current club for at least another season.Yh i miss read it lol i still think foster or green would be better my optionWould be a good signing but I can't see it

 


05 Jun 2012 17:37:28
Hi Ed, any truth in the Cadamertri rumours to carlisle, totally underwhelmed if true, poor signing in my opinion {Ed003's Note - I really don't know}(7)(9)Says on wikipedia cadamarter has agreed a 2 year deal at carlisle, he may not be as good as he was but boy does he have experience also he will fit into how we play if this rumour is true, don't underestimate this manBeen released from every club he's played forActually, it says he currently has no club!! He's a good back up player who can change games from the bench so don't write him off if it is true!Played with him at Grays, the only lad to rock up to the ground in a gleaming brand new X5 while everyone else is struggling in clios and golfs. Top lad good luck to himGood signing i think age isnt on his side but he can do a job for us hasnt got the best scoring record but im sure he will fit in well to what we are trying to do hereZoko rejected new contract so could look likely

Gylfi sig is on holiday, knowing personal terms have been agreed with Swansea and a bid has been accepted from Reading.
Nothing will happen till he returns and even then he is likely to be waiting on a phone call from favourite-ever-bloke Brendan Rodgers for a chance to play at Liverpool.(28)(10)Liverpool need him! Also IMO Rodgers will be found out within 6 months (out of his depth at Liverpool, frustrated by not pulling it off on the pitch and speaking too easy to the media) .. He'll leave by mutual by agreement, gone by Feb. {Ed003's Note - Cheers for that Meg }I think he will be a success. He will be given the time by Liverpool, which is something he will need to re-build the team and get them playing the style he endorses. Shame he didn't work out for us (Reading fan) but still think he is a top young manager.Brian is his favourtie-ever-bloke, he was the one that spotted him and gave him his chance in football. He's known him since he was 13 he didn't know rodgers until he came to readingHe plays for hoffenhiem not readingHe plays for Hoffenheim now but has been a Reading player for much longer. Shows the lack of knowledge some people have about players. This isn't just Reading seeing a player from last year and taking a punt. They've always wanted him to stay and if Reading had had the money at the time and were in the PL they would have kept him.Sadly I don't think we will get Gylfi (Reading fan), saw an interview with him in the London Standard or Metro and all he talked about was Liverpool but definately not Swansea as we all know. Just hope the Liverpool talks break down due to a lack of first team football, as he probably won't be the first name on the Liverpool midfield team sheet each week.Why do reading think their good?! they have no chance over liverpool but maybe over the swans!You don't no what your talking about reading are a great team we beat Liverpool 2-1.Brendan gave him his chance in the reading team actually, and then a chance in the prem which gylfi loved. He does like brian but he prefers rodgersHe's coming bak to Shrewsbury after his loan spell 4 years ago he found league 1 to be more his style. Back to seriousness hell go to Liverpool as yes he may love reading but Liverpool are still a bigger club and we are in Europa

I have heard from a reliable source at the club that Bristol City have signed Paul Dixon from Dundee United. The club also expect to sign Richard Keogh who wants to re-sign for City. Talks are well advanced for an unnamed goalkeeper who was at a premiership side last year. Dave Clarkson will sign for The Gas and Jamie McAllister will have a trial at Yeovil Town.(17)(15)Its probably mark bunn

Rangnick likely to become Belgium manager. Prospective managers are being put off by the limited transfer budget on the table. I believe Michael Appleton will be offered the job with Downing as his assistant. As per last year, the majority of signings will be freebies. They will go for Foster but that will be after they have sold Mulumbu for around 7 mill. Peace wants a manager with experience, with good coaching skills but who is cheap and is not after a big transfer budget HENCE why we have not got anyone yet - they are hard to find. We were just lucky to get Hodgson at the right time.(5)(7)Laudrup will be the next Baggies manager
the deal is being done under the radar as they say so that no third party can jump in and poach the no 1 target.Appleton will be the next manager as he knows the players and staffAppleton will not be Albion manager as the board realise that to sell season tickets for the forthcoming season they need a "name" as to keep the club moving forward,

Celtic are set to complete the signing of Fraser Forster on a five year deal from Newcastle United. The fee is reportedly £2.5m(15)(16)Dont know what they see in him,have i missed something.Why would they pay 2.5 million when theyve had an agreed fee of 2 million since the start of the season?What do celtic see in him? well he had 24 clean sheets last season n he's a good keeperYeah you have missed something.. the most cleansheets 2 years in a row, setting a record for the most clean sheets in the history of the league

Watford rumoured to be taken over by a European.
Rumours suggest that it may well be the Udinese chief who was rumoured to be interested in taking over Watford back in Febuary.(11)(11)Old newsIt doesn't take a week for a take over. So it may be old news. It doesn't mean it's not still in motion.What so Bassini is just gonna sell like that? He's just paid for our new pitch and new screens for the stadium!Bassini has only paid £200k deposit
on the pitch. Watford staff were paid late
and he's missed the due date for the bond
payment. He's broke !They were, Laurence Bassini is definately european, as was Michael Ashcroft (Baronet) and all the others.Utter rubbish, please stop these silly rumours nowYou are so full of it! ALL payments to former shareholders are up to date, in fact Laurence recently announced plans to pay off all the debt earlier AND clear the club's £1M overdraft. I have a relative on the staff who most definetly has been paid IN FULL + ON TIME too! £500k poured into Red Lion pub, new screens and tannoy installed in ground months ago. Ref. the pitch, like any building works, the balance will be paid work is completed. The Bassini hate club need to remember investors were not exactly queueing up to put their money into the club....Well this is a false statement, as according to bassini he turned down 16m and 32m bid for watford from two different potential investors and also said there has been interest expresssed from the udinese owner,so actually for once there is plenty of potential investors in watford fc.This is one of the most sensible comments on the whole Bassini / take over thread that has been running for the last couple of weeks. As far as I can see Laurence Bassini has been true to his word and proving to be an asset to Watford FC. I can only assume that the idiots who have been posting scurrulous rumours about his finances are either fans of a very small minded team in Bedford or friends of former directors either way GET A LIFEThis post is complete rubbish. Get of Bassini's back. He is doing a great job. There is NO potential investor so stop believing silly rumours and welcome back to the real worldWho is bidding 16 and 32 million for Watford?! Bassini bought the club for £400,000. He's doing a great job as well!More BS! Bassini is not in any position to even consider any bids for the club, under the conditions of the takeover he cannot take any funds out out of the club or sell up before he has paid off the former shareholders. If he defaults, which he shows no signs of doing so far, the shares and therefore control of the club will revert to Ashcroft and Simpson.

Sheffield United have offered Kev Macdonald a new deal but he wont sign anything until hes fit again. Ive been advised hes had talks with Owls but injury is a problem
Williamson has agreed terms with barnsley but hes stalling as hes hoping a bigger championship club will come in for him
Porter has signed until 2016 with DW looking to sign Mooney from Orient to partner him. Rumours of Showunmi to Blades are premature. Hes been offered a deal but wants one last go at Championship football
Maguire has been in talks with Ipswich along with Quinn. Although DW wants to keep both Mcabe wants to cut down wage bill and can get fees for both(11)(14)I agree with most but giving porter a deal until 2016 is rubbish like the playerBearing in mind Maguire earns peanuts, it's not his wages that McCabe wants to save, he just wants a transfer fee. Harry can do so much better than Ipswich. Just needs time, maybe in January someone from the PL might come calling.Feel sorry for you if mooney signed! He is absolutely abysmal. No pace, terrible in the air and is often totally anonymous throughout the gameKeep it up agent wilsonHe may be able to do better than Ipswich. Who knows? However if he did come to Ipswich and he is as good as you say he is, he'll be in playing week in week out and get some invaluable championship experience.

Millwall to sign Fabricio Simoes from Portugese League 2 Champions Estoril for an estimated fee of £300k he is a big Brazilian Centre forward who can hold the ball up well.(5)(7)Is that the Fabricio Simoes who is currently on loan at the club from Uniao Leiria?Where did u hear this from?HMMM! Must admit I dont know anything about this player! What is happening with Henderson?AND what about BEAVON? He is quite useful although he has been at WYCOMBE! only 25yrs old!Unless he has portugesse citizenship - 0% chance of a work permit25years old?, couldnt be more wrong, hes 28 years old

Huddersfield Town twin signing imminant. Giles Barnes is to become a Terrier. The free transfer signing latterly of Doncaster Rovers will put pen to paper on a two year deal on Wednesday. Wingman Gai Assulin (released by Man City ) will join be announced by Simon Grayson of part of his plans at or around the same time. Both players fit the brief experienced but young, eager and gifted with a point to prove and on free transfers.(14)(9)I like the sound of this but with lets say we have to accomaodate Assulin, Barnes and Ward in the same team, how will we do that? Unless we play one up front I can't see how that will work as our midfield will be lightweight in the win the ball department to say the least. I think we need some real bite in our midfield, players who can win the ball, distribute it and keep posession - something we've lacked the season. I like the sound of Assulin though, could turn out to be a real talent if he progresses.But Giles Barnes hasnt set the world alight has he... and has had some bad injuries. Surely we can find a better attacking midfielder. Stephen Quinn from Sheffield would be very good...

Rumours around Pride Park suggest that Derby's only signing this summer could be a £2m+ striker to replace Steve Davies, with other squad positions being given to youth team players(9)(5)Fairly believable - who would you like to see up front next season Rams fans?Thio as got us out the sht in 1or2 games os dont slag him off to the so called derby fanI heard that its Johnny Russell.

But I expect to see 5 signings

As Nigel has been give 1.5 million before
transfer sales and with Davies going for
1 million + and Bailey 700k.

He would have to replace them
Will hughes is the only one of our wonderkids old enough to play a major part next season.

Krystian Pearce
Michael Jacobs
Daniel Powell

To be bought

Steve Davies
Ben Davies
James Bailey
Chris Maguire
Paul Green
Lee Croft
Miles Addison

To be sold

I really dont think it would be just one signings seeing as we had terminated 7
contracts such as Leacock and Anderson
and we are selling 6 first team players
and only to get a striker.Theo has improved in every area and is working really hard over the summer with coaches to improve his touch.watch him score 15 + goals and then see the fans say anything about him.Dont chant Theo Theo if you then go on the interent to slag him off.He has been a Bargain and so has steve davies remember he only cost us 250,000 so whether we get 1 million or 3 Million we are still making profitYou can't knock Theo,he did score 12 goals.We know his faults but I for one can put up with that.

Grant Holt quitting for West Ham,West Ham lost their battle to hang onto Rob Green - who looks set for Malaga,Reading want to re-sign axed West Brom defender Nicky Shorey,Danny Guthrie is being offered the chance to revive his career at Southampton after being released Newcastle.(19)(8)Holt would not join West Ham as he wants to move to a bigger club up north, West Ham bound to struggle this season as they lack quality.Holt is contractually obliged to play for Norwich for 2 more yearsGrant Holt is not able to quit for West Ham, he will only be sold when someone pays a stupid amount of money for him, Norwich can hold him for another 2 years and have no desire or any need to sell him, so only a crazy offer will secure his servicesFor your info; Dan Ashworth scouts and accuires new signings so the fact there's no manager is irrelevant.Would love to see guthrie at saints

Reading's bid for Gylfi Sig accepted but does NOT mean he is singing. This was the easy part. IMO he will go to Liverpool. Watford have enquired about joe mills and simon church
MrRfc(20)(9)Signing not singing haha
MrRfcWhat's the source for this?Gylfi sings aswell, wow, is thr no limits to this mans talent?C'mon now, you really must stop this MrRfc. We all saw how much your new owner is worth. Whilst it certainly isnt pocket change, the likelihood of him spending 6-7m on a single player is practically nil. Anyone can see that. Good luck next season though.I still think our promise of offering Gylfi first team football and his love for the club and we can easily pay him say 30k a week before Liverpool come sniffing might tempt him. And we keep transfer business quiet to Brendan wont know we bid for himHe will end up at LiverpoolWould love for Watford to get Church and Mills. shows some ambition that we lacked with our signings last season.The likelihood of us spending that much on a player is high, you dont have to believe me but a bid has gone in and i am told it has been accepted. the fee may be less as we have a sell on fee. i dont expect us to sign him but it is a sign of intent. I cant see us spending that much on a player this year but this shows the money is there for the RIGHT player
MrRfcI wouldn't be surprised if Reading's bid is an over the top offer for Sig for 2 good reason. 1) Reading have a sell on clause therefore this will be taken into account and will reduce the final fee paid and 2) Liverpool will need to match Reading's over the top offer to secure the player meaning Reading FC will receive more from the sell on clause... Interesting transfer whichever way you look at it.It is true that we have had a bid accepted for Gylfi. And as we know what Gylfi is like 6.8m would not be a risk at all. Anton gave Mcdermott £15m to spend and spending 6.8m on a proven player is no risk. Its just whether he wants a return to us or go to LiverpoolU may have Church...

Shrewsbury have offered a contract to out of contract Tranmere Rovers midfielder Joss Labadie.(14)(3)Would be a decent signing, but what about dave mccallister? any deal there?No they haven't , have it on good authority that no Shrewsbury have no interest in the player. (Mr T)No thanks :/
attitude problems!Decent enough but Labadie is close to signing for Walsall

news from Leicester city and that they have offered emile heskey a return back to the king power on a one year deal. they are also trtinto sign Robert Snodgrass from Leeds but Jermaine beckford is not a part of the deal wereas lee peltier might be heading the other way or to newly promoted Huddersfield town. Leicester are also trying to sign Wilson Palacios from stoke and Chelsea youngsters lalkovic who was released earlier this week and with Chelsea Jacob Millis will join either Southhampton or Burnley by the end of this week after qpr didn't opt to sign him. Chelsea to sign hulk after he hinted at a move anwas spotted at Stamford bridge earlier today.(16)(18)Absolute garbage,if snodgrass was to go he would only leave for premier, but he's staying at leedsWilson Palacios to Leicester :-) Love it. Maybe Crouch in a double swoopThe only reason Palacios didn't play much last season was because of an injury he had, even before he joined Stoke.
He will be a key player next season.If you dont think rhodes is worth 8 million dont buy him i hope town rate him at 10 million so no one buys him couldnt think of a better striker in championship tbhHow can u not think ov a better striker in the championship ? Every striker who's scored in the championship is better because Rhodes has never played in that league and so is unproven ! He might not even score 5 goals yet !Snodgrass would not sign for Leicester, if he leaves Leeds it will be to the Premier league.He was at ipswich before we bought him in the championship nuggetRhodes is provan at a higher level than championship scottish u21 and full squad where hes scored for both international is slightly higher than championship and 8 million plus for a proven goal scoring scottish international is cheap as chips.No way Stoke will sell Palacios, this season will be the first that they hope to get the best from him, given that he will more than likely be fully fit.Snodgrass... Premier League ??????Rhodes is not an 8 Mill player.... i wouldnt give 20p for a scottish international. He didnt exactly get them to the Euros because hes a over rated league 1 player who wont score more than 5 goals in the championship.

Enoch Showumni has been seen around the Sheffield United training ground with his agent who has paper work in his hand along with a brown leather briefcase to match his brown leather shoes. He recently became a bosman free player so i will not be suprised if this does not come off. Just what united need, replacement for their 30+ goalscorer for next season. Exciting Times! Up the mighty blades {Ed013's Note - Good luck, he is one of the worst footballers I have ever seen}(6)(19)Released from my team Tranmere, who finished 12th. It's sad and shows no ambition if you do want him, he's awfulHaha, he was on loan to Sheffield Wednesday and was rubbish, scoring no goals in 10 apps. 29 goals in 172 league apps doesn't sound any good.Enoch's struggled to get 30 in his career let alone in a season!! I heard he's going to Luton

Ipswich have had a 400,000 bid for Dean Marney turned down by Burnley with the Clarets holding out for around 750,000 for the midfielder

Also expect Burnley to make a major signing this week with a unnamed Premier League Defender signing for 1M(11)(8)I hope that we didn't bid for Marney. I can't see him providing us with anything that the likes of Drury and Hyam can't already do.Marney will leaveThere is no chance Marney would leave for that amount of money. He's a claret.

Huddersfield have put an £8million asking price on Jordan Rhodes which may put Reading off buying him. As alternatives McDermott is looking at Craig Mackail-Smith and Junior Hoilett. Matt Phillips is also on the Reading FC radar for £3million but Swansea are more likely to get him.(7)(26)Bit of a joke! Why would we not go for Rhodes and then settle for Mackail-Smith bit of a drop in skill. We could easily find a better striker than Mackail-Smith.Holiet has signed for Borussia Muchengladbach (sp) we won't be going for CMS for his scoring ability please see analogies regarding banjo's and donkeys and barn doors.Matt Phillips is twice the player of Rhodes in six games for United he scored six for a winger hes a lot better than Rhodes for nearly a third of the priceJordon Rhodes is not worth 8 million considering just one year on contract left. Also he might not make it at championship level yet, nevermind premiership. His previous season in the championship was poor/average at best.£8m for a lad who has had one league1 season albeit a very good one? keep dreaming sunshineCMS has pledged his loyalty to Brighton, especially after rejecting an approach by Team GB for this summer's Olympic Football Team to work hard to address his lack of goals. Gus Poyet is keen to see his investment on him pay off, and is giving extra time to show he can be a leading striker in the league.This information was from the local Reading newspaper. I agree that Rhodes might not cut it in the prem and CMS is not good enough. You might not like it but that doesn't mean it's not true.What Is it with these Reading fans thinking they can get these top players just because they have a few million to spend. You are new to the Premiership and will likely struggle which makes u unsttractive to top players.Arsenal bought oxlade chamberlain from a team in league 1 .pilkington came from league 1.norwich and southampton went straight through the championship from league 1.dont kid yourselves about how strong the prem isRhodes is and out and out Striker hes all about goals 48 goals in 50 games for club and country speaks for itselfId rather sign Matt Phillips and a proven premier league striker like Yakubu. From what I have seen of Rhodes he wont cut it in the premier leagueThink you will find hes contracted till 2015 and he wont go for less than 8 million jog onJordan Rhodes is contracted for the next 3 seasons, not 1. Town don't need the money so can ask what they like...if he goes, we make massive profit, if he stays he continues his development in Championship - its a no lose situation for TownSwansea wont sign anyone until they have a new managerRhodes has had more than one good season 93 goals for club and country in the last 3 seasons. 105 career goal for clubs and country and is only just turned 22. there are players with worse records going for 5 million plus so i think 8 million is a fair priceRhodes is worth about 5-6m if your lucky unproven at a higher levelJordan Rhodes is contracted till 2015. His previous season in the championship was as an 18yo, and he only played 10 times at the most(mainly as a sub). Huddersfield Town do not want to sell him and do not need the money, therefore they can put a silly price on his head, if teams want to bid at that price, more fool them. It is hopefully a win win situation for town. Lots of money if he goes, or too bigger asking price that no team will pay and he stays.Utter cranks, how disrespectful? One season in league one? Think you'll find he's knocked in 20+ in each of the last 3 seasons.
He's not played a season in championship yet.
If Connor Whickham went for £13m I think Jordan is worth a tad more having scored a butt load more. And that is all its based on people. Don't kid yourselves otherwise with this whole 'he's only league' rubbish.This is not a personal dig at Rhodes, but you wouldn't put a £5 million price tag let alone a£8 million on a player that hasn't played in the championship yet. Let the lad show everyone what he can do first at championship level. He may well turn out to be another CMS who has found out what his level is!Not sure about swans not signing players before new manager appointed. I think they will have identified players that suit the style of football that they intend to persue. I think the new manager will be told he will have to work with those . Now that Gylfi deal seems dead in the water they may allow new manager to use some of the money we did'nt spend on player(s) he feels may be required.Rhodes is contracted till 2015 so that figure is right as most of it will be performace related i.e score 'x' amount of goal in the prem to trigger a million pounds etc, and do you not think the price tag is inflated to put people off... Wake up. The Connor Wickham Shout is a valid point, he is sht and went for a silly fee. Huddersfield have every right to demand that fee for Rhodes.The higher the league rhodes goes to he will score significantly less goals as most of his game is losing his man, capitalising on mistakes etc however he is worth 5mill plus as he is still very young and an excellent finisher. from a huddersfield town fanDemand all u want...you get it though! Wake up,he's proven nothing except he can score goals in league one! Murray, CMS and others proved its alot tougher in championship let alone prem!Compared to other L1 players that have been trs to the PL, 8 million sounds about right. Fabian Delph 8m to Villa, Oxlade-Chamberlin 13m to Arsenal. Powell from Crewe reported to be on his way to Man Utd with a figure of 10m being reported!...Crazy figures i know but thats the cost of trs these days, especially when they are very young!8 million for fabian delph seriously aston villa pay that and rhodes is not worth 8 million see rhodes play week in week out have no worries he will be class act this season 40 goals for a club in 1 seasonConor Wickham is younger and is English though so will cost more. Rhodes is scottish. Honestly he must be a good player, but £8m for an unproven championship and premier league striker is unjust. £5m is generous for him and I honestly dont think he's ready for the premier league. He looked meagre against a poor Sheffield United at Wembley. He's no better than Shane Long or Danny Graham who were sold for lower than £6m. In fact Graham was sold for £3.5mStop saying Rhodes should be cheaper because NOT PROVEN in championship! He has a very impressive strikers instinct, meaning he knows how to get on the end of things and put the ball away, quality all round strike. Championship wont change him as a player, you lot talk about him on one game you've seen, yet us town fans seen it all from him. You will see.Dude above actually knows about football.Cough - didn't Fergie buy some Portuguese Div 2 player he'd never seen play for 8 million folding? Since when did the money paid for players ever make sense?Rhodes is not scottish by birth,he qualifies because he went to school there while his dad played for a scottish club.Premier league is worth like 60 mil i wouldnt sell rhodes 60 mil is a lot more money than we would get for him keep rhodes we will not be fighting relegation next year either dont make me laugh! (huddersfield fan)

Wigan and Fulham are chasing Theo Robinson and are ready to make a 1.5 million move.(9)(11)Really hope not as Wigan have bigger players in mind and not a dud from the ChsmpionshipNot saying it isn't true, but IMO he isn't ready for the Premiership yet, his touch isn't good enough, especially when he will have less time in the higher league, although if supplied with chances, he will score goals.

Watford manager Sean Dyche has admittedly privately to staff at the club he is still unclear on what his budget is for the new season. With a takeover battle set to rumble on throughout the next few weeks it's hoped a quick conclusion to any sale will allow the manager and Ross Wilson to focus on there key targets.(5)(1)If he admitted it privately to staff, how do you know? The money we get for Mariappa will be more than enough to fund our summer purchases.

Bournemouth have spoked to Doncaster about brian stock for 200k the only problem is wage demmands afc bournemouth have a 5k wage cap(8)(7)No we don't have a wage cap anymore josh mcquoid and Charlie Daniels are on over 6k a weekAs a bournemouth fan i would not be excited if this is true, a real box to box ball winner is needed ...and whats with all our old players being linked bk with us ?Haha Somebody wants to tell Francis, Tubbs, Daniels, grabben and mcquoid about this wage cap then!We do it used to be 2.5k now it's 5k we even no we can have big wages the Russian havent put any money in its all loans but they will put in for south stand because they will have 50/50 with Eddie MitchellJosh is on 4.5k and charlie is on 4kThere is now because of the financial fair play rules, (this applys to any new players)It 5k mate mcquid was on 4k a week at millwall and he said he would move if back if we matched his millwall deal and Daniels is on about 4k - 4.5k maxStockys worth more than thatBox to box? Is there a different Brian Stock out there im not aware of?Surely £5k is less than the minimum wage .... oh wait....Sorry bournmouth fans but after chatting with Brian recently he says only Burnley have had an offer accepted for him and he expects to sign in the next weekWrong wrong wrong think you may have spoken to the wrong stock because he is playing for doncaster next season its confirmed on our websiteJust to put things clear , bournemouths highest paid player is josh mcquoid who earns 4.5k a week.Stoky is injury prone, bad back especially, you have to ask why isn't O'Driscoll making an offer? It's because of his back problems.Brian Stock is not worth those wages! we need a defensive midfielder like A.Robinson. UTCIADDont't think so, there are several players who turn down the chance to play for a bigger club to play for us because of the wages we can offer them. I would say we have at LEAST 5 players on 5k+ a weekI fear this 5k nonsense is a wind up! Everybody knows Tubbs alone is on double that or he would have opted for Hull or Leeds. Wether he is worth that wage is another matter.......,U reckon tubbs is on 10k a week lol afcb players like robbo feeney bartley Pearce wiggins Hollands were on 2k maz we coudnt afford to pay players more than 5k a week we only get 6k average fans the russian only putting money in for the building work that's why Mitchell got him in all tranfers are loans to afcb which they will get back in short time trust meHarry arter can play the box-to-box role, we need backup but he puts in more effort than any other player.2K! Fletcher is on more than that! Theres a few players on 5k+ a week!Thanks for your comments on this matter Mr Eddie MitchellNo player for us is on over five grandHarry arter does have good energy, but honestly if we are going to be competing for the championship next season we need a centre midfielder a lot better then him.Robbo, Feeney, bartley etc were here before the Russian and left before the Russian arrived so they were prob on low money but Tubbs, Daniels etc were signed on the Russians era and before any said wage cap and would not have turned champs clubs down to join us for under 5k!!They are, believe me^^^^^mr Eddie Mitchell ladies and gentlemen ^^^^^^Who bid for tubbs then I can't remember any putting a bid in I knew clubs were interested and Daniels was on 2k and now on double they didn't have clubs bidding only interested like clubs are interested in jalal but know one bid action b4 wordsWho was going to bid for Tubbs when us daft buggers bid £800,000!! Or are you now going to tell us it was £80 and a tenner a week contract, a sherbet dip thrown in for every time he scores?Arter box to box, nearly chocked on my cornflakes. He runs back to his own box to foul the player he gave the ball away to. He's Div 2 standard at best. There's a reason Charlton dumped him, he's pants.

Lee Clark will be appointed on Friday ready for Gillingham FC(10)(26)God help them.he will need a squad bigger than the cast of ben hur,How do you know thisIs this true? Or just another silly rumour?That's 46 draws then.If Gillingham get Clark then the G's fans should be very, very afraid. Although the media (Sky, Talksport, etc.,) love him - just ask those who are really in the know.

Newcastle 'keeper Fraser Forster is being linked to a move with Brighton, after having a loan spell last season with Celtic. Newcastle will be holding out for a bid of at least £1.5 Million. QPR also interested.(9)(17)Why would they old out for £1.5milllion when they have a pre agreed fee of £2million with Celtic?QPR are a bit more than just interested and Celtic are already talking to his agent. Pretty sure that these bizarre rumours can't be being posted by Brighton fans as they are surely far too sensible.....?Celtic are looking at Tomasz Kucszack and seeing as he is available on a free transfer after his Man United release, they sign him - then Forster wont be going to Celtic.Can only hope this is true, from what I've seem of him he'd be a good signing.Im a Brighton fan, id rather we didnt spend £1.5 Million on a keeper, he is a good talent though. Rather we looked at others first.I'm also a Brighton fan, Is he not a keeper then or am I missing something!Lol why would he go to brighton amean really if he was to leave celtic it would be for like spurs or qpr nor a tiny team like brightonAbsolutely, he could go to Spurs, sit on the bench for 3 years and do nothing except get released after it. Or they might send him on loan to Div 2 and not get the quality of game play he'd get in the Championship. Spurs and QPR wouldn't play him enough. Why be a rotation player when you can be first teamThe championship is miles better than the SPL...Kucszack has joined Brighton on a three year deal.Kucszack has NOT joined Brighton on a 3-year deal. That is fact. Why no people on here crave attention so much?

Negotiations under way and deal will be completed by the end of the week(7)(13)Robinson is on holiday in Turkey! Gonna be hard to sort anything out this week!I will drive him down drop him off they can have himNot exactly a forward step for Watford. The need someone young and eager to challenge DickinsonMaybe, he obviously loves the club but im unaware of what his wages were maybe watford could stretch their budget but does that mean less quality players on a fairly high wage

Lucas Biglia £8mio Cortese has sanctioned an enquiry despite interest from big clubs. Regular premiership football is what he is looking for, rather than sitting on the bench, in order to cement his place in the Belgium team.

Perfect addition at centre midfield, the leader we need.(13)(5)Your post falls down when you don't know his nationality-he is Argentinian!As a Saints fan I can say 1) He is from Argentina and 2) Arsenal and Real Madrid have shown strong interest in signing this player... Would love to see it happen! but don't see it!

Fulham and Wigan to bid about £1.5 mil for striker, Theo Robinson of Derby County.(7)(16)Why on earth would they want him....?Derby fan here. Robinson's not Championship standard never mind Premier League - just warning youI would love to see him stay, but if the £1.5million could be invested in a new striker, bearing in mind he only has 1 year left on his deal, would have to say take the cashThe only thing Theo Robinson offers to the derby team is pace. He has no ball control or passing ability and the goals he scored were mainly from point blank range. No one in the right mind would pay 1.5 million for him.I don't think we would accept that, as flattering as the offer is were already selling 2 other strikers so we'd need a replacement before anything, and he's stated that he's happy with us and is not looking to move.I like how people say about his touch, passing and shooting but near the end of the season they have all improved greatly i have seen worse in the prem and most off his later goals were range e.g. against donny and brumWhy do people keep slagging Theo off? He has his faults, but 12 goals is a good return for a young striker, so get behind him! Can't see him leaving though, he says he happy, Clough likes him and he's scoring goals

Burton Albion have signed former Aberdeen and Oldham centre hald Zander Diamond

Source: Official Website(15)(3)Great signing hopefully we can make 7 more top signingsHe's ok as a player but is injury prone though. Will head anything but slow on the ground.Watched this lad a couple of times before. Great in the air but fairly slow, hopefully a partnership with his aerial ability and Stanno's pace could work outGreat signing for Burton if they can keep him fit. He is injury prone and was out through injury for about half the season last year.Good in the air terrible on the floor, to slow he gets turned inside out, more like zander glass

Aston Villa set to sign Grant Holt.

Brighton after Greg Halford and David Norris from Portsmouth.(22)(18)All will happenIpswich and Leicester are in for Norris in a cut price deal to accomodate his inflated wages.

Halford could be a good fit for Brighton but would need to cut his wages. Likely? Probably not.Will only happen if Lambo willing to invest at least 25% of his transfer kitty even then he might not go.Let's hope not{Big G Voice}Fraser Forster or Tomasz Kucszack either would be a fantastic signings for brighton we certainly need a new Goalkeeper , I understand Forster will not be going north of the border.
But watch QPR^yes, foster would be brilliant, but I think kuzszack is much more likely. Halford would also be a good signing, not sure about norrisNorris has said he wants to stay down south with his kids settled at school. He has said he is very happy down in Hampshire so may well join a team like Brighton... Not sure Halford would drop wages but would fit into Brighton's team well if he did^interesting. Are you a Pompey fan? If so, what is Norris like? What type of player is he?Norris is not bad he gets a lot of goals and tries his hardest but he does get injured and one day he turns up and he is class another he is shocking he is a battling midfielder who likes to go forward and scoreSounds quite a lot like the sort of player we need (not the injuries though!)

Anthony Gardner to Sheff Weds(11)(15)Hes a big crock now. Palace got the best out of him. He has just got a major injury and will only be able to play about 20 games a season. Good luck with himWednesday have just got back into the championship and signing players like gardener will just lead to relegation. It's beyond me how this bloke is nicking a living as a pro, shockingly bad player^Are you being serious? Gardner is a brilliant player when fit.Move fallen through as Owls not happy with medical

Carlisle sign Craig Sutherland from Blackpool.(9)(8)Well considering he only got back from Dubai yesterday and is looking forward to getting back to Blackpool. I very much doubt it.Whats your source on this please, no word of this on the Blackpool end.Blackpool fans, any thoughts on this how high do you rate him etc, cheers {Ed003's Note - I don't think b'pool fans saw very much of him,Plymouth fans may be the best option to ask}Sutherland only played a bit role for the Pool at the beginning of the season. Was very very quick but kept fluffing the final shot. Maybe he has gained more confidence since but was out of his depth. Might be better on the wing.Saw him at the last pre-season and he looked promising. Definitely one for the futureVery quick, bit of an athlete, and had a great attitude, very enthusiastic. But wasn't good enough to get into the team. Only young though, plenty of potential there.I like him and his pace, but to be honest I doubt he'll ever be above low championship standard. Came from an american college dvd and didnt do particularly well at plymouth in league 2.

Out of favour striker Jermaine Easter is a loan deal target for Oxford United provided suitable financial terms can be agreed with Palace(9)(23)What a load of rubbish!! There is no way he will want to sign for a team that will in all honestly be struggling to maintain there league status.Have heard Easter is a target for Huddersfield and Barnsley.

dbStruggling to maintain their league status.. Explain why exactly that is?He's talking sense mate, you have to sell players like constable etc and then Wilder is expected to replace him with only a fraction of what is received for him. He won't be the only one leaving either, again having to replace with only a fraction of any fees taken. Oxford have more problems than any of you care to admit, JC doesn't want to leave and yet he's being forced towards the door...or are you going to deny that as well? Like it or not the coming season is going to be one of struggle for you.Exactly he's being forced out everyone knows that. But for a team that played st just towards the end of the season yes that'd be an example. But look at the games where we dominated.. We may not have a good strike force but games like Swindon show we have a solid defence therefore it's not like our whole team isn't good enough. If you saw Oxford every game towards the end you'd see fitness levels were bad, still doesn't mean we're going to struggle to maintain league status when it's improved.And this is going to improve under Wilder? You are looking at having a weakened squad but with the same Manager with the same training program!! you are going to be struggling towards the wrong end of the table unless Wilder can pull some really good rabbits out of the hat for pennies.Well constable won't help then if he leaves? Yes he's being forced out but don't you see his tweets?To be honest I have no interest in ttter!! That's what I'm saying...Constable will be gone...I don't think you will get a replacement that will be any better and certainly not as loyal...Wilder knows he has to get rid of a couple more and he also knows only a fraction of any fees received will be available for replacements!! Therefore you will have a weakend squad (Unless Wilder really pulls some stunts). So you admit yourself that you will have the same manager that a lot of your fans don't want (Despite the rest of the footballing world realising he has done a very good job with a club that really isn't far away from being a non league side) and in all likely hood a weaker squad!! How can you think anything else than a season of struggle awaits you next season? It's not bloody mindedness..it's just a fact....There is next to no money for Wilder to spend and he cannot have all transfer fees received to replace the players that go!!No money? So we're paying a fee for our only signing on the summer so far. Who we've also given him a better paid contract than he was on at Port Vale.
We offered all 3 of our out of contract players better paid deals!
If we're that skint, how come we're rejected bids of 180k? Surely skint clubs would accept them bids?
Oxfords wage budget is the same as last summer. Said so by the owner and chairman.
And nothing but a season of struggle for OUFC, and how can anyone see any difference you say.
Well every bookies have OUFC as 4th or 5th favourites to win League 2!
Your just on a wind up. Which is sad on 'tranfer rumours' website tbhFor the bit about realising he has done a good job that is why I'm not one of people thinking getting rid of him will be better. Its not Wilders fault if our owner doesnt force out a decent budget. And then there is the fans who aren't bothered about Beano leaving.. We would have a weakened squad if half of them left.. At the moment the only one that got in the team is Asa Hall who actually wasn't very good therefore him leaving doesn't mean we will be weakened IMO.We'll have to agree to disagree...ok one player in...you will let Beano go...it's just that you are desperate for a bid that equaled Swindons to transpire...you need that money...And what about Chapman? You're determined not to offer much of a better wage are you? That will be another gone soon by the looks of it! Will you 1 signing so far make up for this as well? I'm not going to get involved in an argument and this is not a wind up...IMHO I think you will end up struggling, and as for the bookies if I am right (I may be wrong, this is after all only my opinion) those odds will change....have a little look at the odds for a RANDOM bunch of teams and see how it changes as they let players go / bring players in not to mention after their rivals have conducted their transfer business. This season has just ended..do you really think the odds currently mentioned for different leagues will be the same once all of the clubs have sorted themselves out?So... "We are not skint, we are offering our players better contracts than they were on" to "the wage budget is the same, our OWNERS said so" to "It's not Wilder's fault that our owners won't give a decent transfer budget" (sigh)A lot of people here are saying different things which you're replying to all of them.. So it's making out as if I'm changing my opinion every different paragraph. If chapman goes, chapman goes. If constable goes, then that's that. I don't want him to but that's how football goes. I would agree with your idea that we'd be fighting to stay up if Clarke, Duberry, Leven and Wright went but at the moment I don't think that will happenI see your point about the players you have but that is only 4 players and there are some rumours about Leven leaving. Either way I feel the squad will be weaker than last seasons...and you finished that with something like 3 points from a possible 21....I don't see at the moment why people would want Leven. After his injury, he wasn't amazing, well tbh he was pretty poor papadopoulos. I understand your opinion and respect it but we'll just have to see what happens next season then..I do see what you are saying. So as that person above said we will have to wait and see what happens next season. I agree with the statement about Leven aswell.

Watford striker Chris Iwelumo denies rumours to League 1 side AFC Bournmouth and says he happy at Vicarage Road and hopes to stay at the Vic.(9)(3)U do womder why he has had to come out and deny it when the rumour hasent been mentioned anywhere in the press personally dont think he was linked with us.Goes like this, some jounalists had a quick dig about the internet rumour pages, then seen Chris Iwelumo.
"Chris,what do you know about a move to Bournemouth?"
"Nothing."
Hence, in journo speak, a denial.Rumour was out in a Bournemouth paper

Bristol Rovers have lodged two £250,000 bids, one for Northhampton Town striker Akinfenwa, and one for Oxford Town striker Constable.(15)(25)Oxford Town.. YesWrong, James Constable is signing tomorrow lunchtime at the Memorial Stadium for a fee thought to be 200k. The deal will be done and dusted, before he goes on his holidays.Oxford Town? 2 £250k bids, do they have that much money?Where's the gas getting this money from have they found a new investor or using money from new staduim which could be another flying pig story. Administration certain this season for your lot.How many strikers can one team have? According to links on this forum rovers are in for:

Akinfenwa £250,000
Akinde £100,000
Constable £250,000
Thomas

With the stickers you already have there will be loads of bench warming to be done with all the above demanding high wages. Interesting to see what happens if they sign and Rovers underperform;) Very excited Gillingham FC fanWe do have that kind of money but not to spend on them two clownsThis is rubbish, constable plays for Oxford united, and the bid was £185,000And was rejected as insufficient. The last offer was £200k + player.COME ON AKINFENWA YAAAAAAAAAAAH, if you cant see i am very excited for this :)

Bristol Rovers are set to complete the 100k transfer of Crawley striker John Akinde. after impressing on loan at the Bristol club last season, Akinde is set to be Bristols first summer signing.(5)(26)Akinde did not go on loan at Bristol Rovers last season it was the season before, Crawley fans would be happy for him to leave though, he is not good enough, and 100k would appear expensive for a player who only scored 1 goal last seasonImpress, you must be joking.
He was worse than useless

Rivaldos agent still trying to persuade Powell that he can bring experience to Charlton - Powell will turn him down for the second time for sure!(8)(21)His is actually true but i hope it doesnt happenAs a charlton fan i would'nt mind this. i think he will score some crucial goals for us.I don't know why people say they don't want him, he's a footballing legend, just because he's not young anymore, does that mean you would say no to Thierry Henry, or Del Piero then?.....But Rivaldo is slow and 40?!He's three years older than Del Pierro and six years older than Henri, so yes I would say no unless he wanted to play for nothing!Brad freidal is 41 end of. What be a quality signingWhat a ridiculous point. Friedel is a goalkeeper and doesn't need to run around.The fact we dont want him is due to him probably wanting atleast 50k a week for someone wholl only last 60 minsYes he is a legend, so is Pele but would we sign him no, he's way past it.It's not a ridiculous point, the principal is the same, they are both old but brad freidal can still do it, goalkeeper or not he still has to dive and run etc"It's not a ridiculous point"

Yes it is, you cannot compare a central midfielder who may run 12 miles during a game with a goal keeper who may run a mile. Why do you think that goal keepers have longer careers?It really was a ridiculous point - goalkeepers can keep playing longer than outfield players regardless if they have to dive. Do you know anything about football?I can honestly say hand on heart I'd love pele in the team, he might be 60 odd or something but he is the best ever playerIts not a ridiculous point! You cant compare the work load, because there are strikers that are close to 40, midfielders, defenders and goalkeepers, the fact is he still has to run and dive around and jump etc for a 40 year old man is impressiveIt really, really was a ridiculous point - I laughed and then had to show my wife and then she laughed. Thank you for a good giggle

Cheltenham midfielder Marlon Pack being lined up by league 1 new boy Swindon Town. Cheltenham will be offered players plus cash, the midfielder is keen to make the switch.(12)(12)Can hit the odd free kick but has the pace of a slug, nowhere near the class needed at SwindonPeople only link him to us because of his freindship with Ritchie. Swindon will not be signing Pack. They will sign Andy Williams on the 1st of July (Free agent on this date) and they are still in for O'Kane...apart from that PDC is being pretty tight lipped over his targets.Haha pace of a slug - you blatantly havent watched him play.

Marlon has also stated he wants to be at Cheltenham next season, and this was AFTER the play-off finalGonna be a top top player , still has a lt to learn and who better to learn that from than Di CanioMarlon Pack has confirmed that he will be staying at Cheltenham Town next season despite interest from Championship and League One clubs.Pack is out of Swindons price range he will go to Birmingham or maybe Peteborough who can offer guaranteed Championship football.Out of Swindon's price range?? what about what the player wants?Marlons agent is speaking swindon who wanna do a cash plus player deal , but Bristol city are also interestedWho needs pace when you have the vision and cant keep the ball moving like pack , the ball can move faster than any playerPack is not going to Swindon, he has stated quite clearly that he wants to be at Cheltenham next season, and if he were to go he could definitely do better than Swindon. How can you say that there is no one better to learn from than PDC when he already has MY?

Watford set to sign tricky winger Mustapha Carayol from Bristol Rovers for £600k. Gavin Massey and Adam Thompson to movenine other direction on season long loans. Deal to be completed on Wednesday.

Other news, ex Bristol city and Motherwell striker david Clarkson set to join Bristol Rovers, as is central midfielder Kari Arison, previously at Plymouth and Aberdeen.

Leicester boys Tom Parkes and Cian Bolger have agreed terms to rejoin on season long loans, deal finalised late Friday night .

Byron Anthony agreed 2 year deal with Yeovil, craig Stanley to rejoin Paul buckle at torquay and anyinsah set to join orient on a free.(4)(15)Buckle is at LutonBuckle isn't even at torquay!Typo... All true though. Watch this spaceWhat the he'll Byron Anthony is useless and kari arnarson no way would he join a league 2 clubSo why has he joined Hereford utd then !!Rovers fans thought andy Williams and Dom blizzard were both useless, and both have proved themselves at Yeovil.

As for muzzy, deal should me completed by Thursday pm my sources inform me.Mcghee had kari arnarson at aberdeen and he said he was excited to join back up with his old bossWatford won't spend that sort of money on one player, so think againWhy wouldn't Watford spend 600k on a player? We have the money for that easily!Seriously Byron Anthony is useless an if Yeovil make signings like him then league 2 is what will be destined toArnarson only joined Aberdeen at the start of last season,Mcghee had left Aberdeen months before that,SO FAIL.

real MrRfc {Ed001's Note - and his IP has been blocked.}Probs a watford fan upset we are buying there best player. also the same fans who believe a bid has been rejected while the club just want them to believe they tried to keep him
MrRfcThanks Ed
MrRfcMrRfc if you actually had proper sources other than Readings tea lady or something you'd know that even the Watford paper are saying Mariappa is likely to join and that the 'rejection' is just to calm things with the fans.

Whats more, apparently the Sanchez deal is going smoothly, and that there are no such reports of him wanting 40 grand a week.But i told everyone about the mariappa and sanchez deal a long while ago. they will happen a fee has been a mariappa and he will have a medical when he returns from international dity
MrRfcSorry about that MrRfc, didn't realise someone had used your name, I have to say your rumours and news have impressed me so far, keep blogging mate.

Watford have offered Reading £850,000 for striker Simon Church.(25)(17)Ha!! I'm sure the silent Watford fans at vicarage road would like him as a signing!!Quality player, honestly. so how much are we paying you to take him, cheers for mariappa
MrRfc850k? why waste that money when we still have iwelumo?Yes because the atmosphere at Reading really blows you away.... I've been seeing the stuff on here about Mapps for a few weeks now and I honestly don't know where Reading fans are getting their info from. I happen to know that Watford have received bids from Reading and ALL of them have been knocked back. So good luck to Aidy if you get him but I wouldn't be so confident if I were you! You'll find why nearer the weekend. Ta ta.Church would be a good signing for them as both are going nowhereMariappa will go to a bigger club. Not one like Reading who will be going straight back downAll sources, apart from the biased Watford fan who once worked for the local Watford rag but now works in Dubai, say that a fee was agreed weeks ago the only hold up is that Mariappa is away on international duty. He is due to play this Friday for Jamaica so we won't have any movement on this one till next week at the earliest.Been talking to a Watford season ticket holder who seems convinced he is going to Reading....In my opinion, watford will wait for the next offer from newcastle. I dont think we will let him go to a club who will probably go back down next year! Good Luck to him if he does go....but i think we're waiting for Newcastle!

Michael Owen set to have talks with Southampton. A partnership with rickie lambert could ensure the saints safety in next years assault of the premiership!(10)(56)"Michael Owen set to have talks with Southampton. A partnership with rickie lambert could ensure the saints safety in next years assault of the premiership!"

Your defence needs strengthening if you want to survive.Not gunna happenThe man's fiinished, why dont people just accept it.
Form a partnership with Lambert? Ricky plays a whole season so that's never going to happen is it.Nahhh it would assure that Southampton pay Owen a ridiculous amount of money for sitting at home injured and Lambert isnt good enough for the Prem, too slow.Please don't be true!I do believe Southampton will be fine next season, but I cant see them going for Owen at all.Can't see this happening,love it to though
if Owen is finally injury free.Lambert isn't good enough for prem to slow, haha don't make me laugh just what everyone said about holt and lambert is better than holt^to answer that grant holt peter crouch yakubu have done alright with no paceI agree with other post we need more cover in defenceHe's quicker and more versatile than Grant Holt and he did ok!

We're used to people slating Ricky for being a big Centre Forward. People said he couldn't cut it in the championship, now the premiership. Player of the season in the championship is awarded that for a reason, regardless of speed or anything else, he showed the most quality in the whole of the championship last year and he will be just fine. Our problem will be stopping goals going in at the back, and making sure we don't get reliant on Ricky because he is THAT GOOD.Rickie Lambert is faster than Grant HoltLambert to slow??? He isnt that bad, but... Matt le tis slow player, amazing playerOwen no thanks to injury proneDont need owen we do need some more pace up front and i think saints should sign a new cb and rb and jack butland but thats almost a done dealI love all the know it alls making judgments on how saints will do or if Rickie Lambert can play at that level (I also suspect these comments come from arrogant fans of premier league teams that did not see Saints play in the championship last season). The beauty of Ricky lamberts game is that he is great in the air, good touch and a one of the hardest shots in the football league - he doesn't need to be fast.

Aides mcgeady looks like he could be swapping russia for England as his agent Andre wasicv said mcgeady wants to "be reunited with Martin oneil" talks have already begun I understand as Aiden wants to go into the euros with republic of Ireland with the deal done. Also Sunderland have been told by man city that it's either 10 million or a loans deal that will get Adam Johnson. Apart from that a couple of routers about signing abonghalhor or however you spell it but that looks doubtfull(19)(12)Would be great for sunderland if we got all three of them, a;ll quality attacking playersMcGeady and Oneill are both from the republic of ireland {Ed007's Note - McGeady is Scottish and O'Neill is from Derry in NI.}McGeady is a republic of ireland international

To clear up Reading's new ownership:

Anton Zingarevich is worth £650m.

His father, although not listed as a Director, did have to pass the FAPPT, as confirmed by Chris Samuelson, he may invest at a later date.

Boris Zingarevich's personal wealth as proved to Kroll (Kroll performed the financial assessments for the Premier League) is £4.1b

Confirmation of Boris Zingarevich's involvement comes from Chris Samuelson in a Daily Mail interview.

Boris Zingarevich's wealth you can choose not to trust but it comes from a very reliable source on.

Thanks,
Pea(14)(10)No-ones bothered about Readings ownership except Reading. The club seem to have delusions of grandeur^speak for yourselfNo-ones bothered about Readings ownership except Reading. The club seem to have delusions of grandeur

And you 'seem' not to know the difference between the clubs view point and a few high school kids going a bit OTT on a rumours web siteYikes, if this is true its got to be putting a bit of a dampener on the whole 'Reading to buy everyone' thing from the Reading fans. Still, being bought by a playboy son of a billionaire, whats the worst that could come of that situation eh? Happened to Pompey and they turned out just fine. Oh, hold on.....Suggest you wait to see how much of their "wealth" they are willing to commit to RFC.
I suspect you will find it is nowhere near what you expect."No-ones bothered about Readings ownership except Reading. The club seem to have delusions of grandeur"

If thats the case go and find something else to read/comment on. If your not interested why read it, just walk away and keep quiet.If your not bothered by it then why did you read it?They are already upgrading the academy this year to the highest level then if we stay up the plans to build the expansion to the stadium begin, if that + not having to sell our best players is all we get out of this deal for the next few years ill be happyEveryone has a right to read and comment on what post they choose. This just confirms that Reading are not "Billionaires" at all.Not a lot of premier league owners are billionaires though. Fulham's, Stoke's, Villa's, West Broms, Norwich's and Swansea's owners who were all midtable last season are not owned by billionaires. Even Dave Whelan who's worth around 200m has kept wigan in the premier league. Money isnt everything to how good you are. Look at Leicester, spent millions and got midtable in the championshipThe money isn't going all on players. We will continue to act in the Reading way which is right player right price. A lot of money will be put into improving facilities. What this money means is that Reading won't have to seek their best players every season because we don't want to be in debt like 90% of football teams. We now have financial security and yes whilst people may say "Well look at Portsmouth" Portsmouth's owners were not people who have a connection with the area and the club like Anton does.That first comment was a load of rubbish we have a multi million air now we buy will buy 7or so players

Watford set to sign tricky winger Mustapha Carayol from Bristol Rovers for £600k. Gavin Massey and Adam Thompson to movenine other direction on season long loans. Deal to be completed on Wednesday.

Other news, ex Bristol city and Motherwell striker david Clarkson set to join Bristol Rovers, as is central midfielder Kari Arison, previously at Plymouth and Aberdeen.

Leicester boys Tom(2)(11)This isn't true as why would clarkson want to come here, and don't think we will sell muzzy that easilyThat easily? 600k is probably more than we'll actually get for him. Think people are forgetting he's only got a year left on his deal and has only really had 6 consistent months of quality.Clarkson isn't spoiled for choice. A failed championship player, worked with McGhee previously, and he likes that rovers have a great history of producing great strikers. Deal should be completed by Thursday pm according to sources very close to the player

Hi Ed- everyone has been talking about Hulk as a chelsea player before he has even signed or we have heard about any deal... Has Hulk agreed a deal with chelsea and if so what is it and when we it be confirmed?

west ham will sign sunderland trio kieran richardson ahmed elmohamady and george mccartney. also exiting the wearside club is ryan noble who will join sheffield wednesday for a nominal fee. gyan will sign a permanent deal with al anin for a fee of 7.8m. stephane sessegnon will join french side psg for 14m. Sunderland will sign carlos cuellar (free transfer), steven fletcher (8m), gabriel agbonlahorr(4m), adam johnson (loan), diame (free)) nicky shorey (free) and matt phillips (3m)(12)(28)Phillips not leaving Blackpool FC this summer he has told me.You wont get fletcher for 8 million try 12 million wolves dont have to sell.Let's be realistic here, will Fletcher want to play CHAMPIONSHIP football next season! He will move to prem, maybe not necessarily to Sunderland though.Gabby will never leave the villa so think you should stay off the crack pipe,and for 4m ? what a total nutter you really are !!!I thought nobody won the euromillions on friday, I guess I was wrong obviously one of the west ham owners did.12m for fletcher?? he isn't that good, you got relegated and expect to get 12m for him your having a laugh, it will be 8m tops if your luckyI dont know why everyone is doubting flecthers loyalty he has been saying on twitter how much he wants to stayRelegated or not Fletcher won't be leaving for less than £10m. We paid £7m for him have no debt and no player clauses (like the Lescott agreement to Everton) so if he can score 10+ league goals three seasons in a row for rubbish teams like Burnley and I hate to admit it but Wolves twice then if you bid £8m I think Moxey will fall off his chair laughing, unless you're offering £8m + Carlton Cole, Mark Noble and Jack Collison?

BobbybuffonFletcher 22 league goals in 41 games thats up there with the best in the premier league also in a side thats battled against relegation for 2 seasons, so yes worth every penny of 12 million.Get it in to your head wolves want 10+ for fletch thats if mr moxey is being nice we can play hard ball with any team we wantWill want to make a profit on gyan so will not accept less than 10m sess will cost 17m+ will never pay over 8m for fletcher agbonlahor only scored 5 goals last year and single figures the season before so what makes you think he is worth more than 4m phillips would move to the prem like a shotDiane will not join Sunderland as there are Big clubs after him in England and SpainBecause he is a striker, not a wingerCity will NOT loan Johnson - it's a cash deal or nothing - City will listen to offers above £12 million for him.

04 Jun 2012 20:27:53

04 Jun 2012 20:24:59
It is believed that Liverpool are
planning to make a bid around the fee
of 10 million of Fulham's Clint
Dempsey as Brendan Rodgers wants
to add to his strike force as Liverpool
failed to score goals last season.
Rodgers would also like to bring in last
years loanee, Swansea player
Gylfi Þór Sigurðsson, snatching the
deal away from Swansea.(23)(17)Do that not break the spirit, if not the letter of liverpools deal,not to go afder swanse players ?Gylfi Sigydsson is not a Swansea player, he was only on loan to Swansea. So any deal for Gylfi will be between Liverpool and the current club that owns him which i believe is HoffenheimHe was on loan at Swansea from hoffenhiem,therefore contracted to hoffenhiem,so there is no breaking of the deal as he is not their player^^^ he is not a swansea player yet!Rubbish, if any other club wanted Gylfi he could go so why not Liverpool.He was not and is not a Swans player!Yeah but liverpool can still sign sigurdsson as he is not a swansea player yet!If Dempsey leaves Fulham it will be for Champions League - he has said so himself.Hmmm sigurdsson plays for hoffenheim :S whats your point?

 


04 Jun 2012 20:18:43
Bournemouth have had a £500,000 bid for Oxford's Peter Leven turned down.(2)(20)Joking, useless, not worth 100k.How much? Highly unlikely and would much prefer Bostwick to be the midfield enforcer we need to complete the jigsaw.Oxford could not afford to turn down 500k!! What nonsense. There si a good chance Leven will be leaving but not for that amounnt. 150k - 200k will see him leave.I think Bournemouth are after a higher standard of player and if this was true oxford would not reject half a million for any of their playersWould be a very good sighning for us if true,but not for 500k,more likely 150-200k tops

 


04 Jun 2012 20:15:11
Oxford are set to sign AFC Bournemouth's Wes Thomas having fallen out of favour.(5)(12)Your welcome to him really went down hill in second half of season couldent hit a barn doorCould be a possibility. With the recent addition of Mcquiod and Grabban we have good options up front. Completely lost his confidence to hit the net towards the end of the season but was unstoppable earlier on. Would like to see him stay but with Tubbs and Sheringham also pushing for a start his chances may be limited.I'll pack his bags and drive him over if that helps, big time charlie who couldn't hit a cows backside, car parks no problem.Swap for leven?Shame his touch had gone, work ethic and effort is second to none, not sure if he should go as i believe its a confidence thing. Bradbury tried to play him with Tubbs and it did'nt work, maybe we could give him some gamtime till Jan and then see!!Him and Tubbs are too similar a player and in my opinion wes is probably the better.

Bradford want Arsenal academy player Antony Jefferey on a season long loan deal. The pacey winger is what Parkinson is after. Jefferey may not be the only youngster coming on loan from Arsenal. PP used to work at Arsenal and has contacts with them. Barnet are also after Jefferey as it is more local to him but his preferred choice is Bradford.(3)(6)Jemaine Johnson is set to sign for Bradford City this week also Robbie Blake has agreed to sign for us too once he gets off his holidaysRobbie blake is not on his holidays.he was in the casino down the road at the weekend..fact. although would be a great signing for us.

Alistair Slowe in potential move to the Saints. Ex-Yeovil play maker is high on the wanted list of many clubs, but Adkins has expressed a desire to sign talented winger. Slowe is interested in the Saints.(3)(16)Im a massive saints fan, and i know this isnt true. southampton have stated there desire to only sign players with expierence for the new season.So why has he joined Hereford utd then !!!What is it with alistair slowe? he's st! If he couldnt get a game at yeovil, he wont get a game at southampton. YTFC fan

Rafael Benitez could be a shock replacement for Brendan Rodgers at Swansea.

The Spaniard is keen to get back into the Premiership, and is interested in a move to South Wales.

Meanwhile, Lee Clark could be set to take up the hot-seat at Carrow Road.(18)(26)Benitez wants money,cant see this deal going ahead....more chance of getting bruceAll you have done is state newspaper rumours, Lee Clark is not on Norwich City's radar, read the chairman's statement he is looking for a manager who has already managed at the top level, either in premiership or one of Europe's top leagues

 


04 Jun 2012 19:09:04
Southampton believed to be preparing a bid for young, English centre back Ben Turner of Cardiff City.(17)(16)Hope so. Would be a top signing.Doubt he would leave Cardiff

From a cardiff fanIm a cov fan and trust me this man will play for england one dayThis is an interesting one sees realistic he is only 23/24 has been consistant in the league and is one of the best in the league in his position. He would get into starting 11 defo. Good luck Southamption from cardiffSource? does seem realisticThis sounds a positive move for saints as we do need to strenthen are defenceWould be a regularly big price tag since he only signed last season. I'd say around 3-4 million, if the deal went through and if he wanted to leave. I agree with the comment above that he will be playing for England soon. (Cardiff fan)Good moveWould be a great signing if we could get him.I think this move is possible, but he will be expensive due to his contract and his potential I think southamption will look for prem proven over turner for now

 


04 Jun 2012 18:57:57
Davies of Barnsley to local rivals Owls in straight swap for winger Mike Jones and Left back Danny Jones (no relation)(3)(25)Why would Barnsley let the only senior
striker on the books go to another
championship club it,s a no go mateWhy would Barnsley want another left back when we have 3Stop posting rubbish.Davies having a medical at tranmere after the bank holiday ( i'm not a tranmere fan by the way)The only medical davis will be having is the
one prior to pre season training at oakwellDavies declared his loyalty to barnsley the other week saying that he promises he will play a better season for barnsley next season

Ex Bournemouth striker Michael Symes has agreed personal terms with Shrewsbury Town and will be announced in the coming weeks. The 28 year former Shrews striker will replace the outgoing James Collins.(11)(7)Can remember gus poyt saying he nearly killed our keeper when afcb drew 1-1 a with dean he like to put his weight aboutGT does not like signing ex players...so this is a no no..I heard Swindon were also in for him. Either way I wish him luck, he always threatened to be a good striker for us but for whatever reason it didn't quite work out for him hereNot a chance Symes will return it would be a backward step for ShrewsburyWhat about Asa Hall?Think Turner could really get the best out of Symes if he was here and kept fit. Can't quite see this deal taking place though.Symes is on his way to orient and collins rotherhamJames Collins has league 1 + championship. Why go to RotherhamCollins isn't going to Rotherham. Wishful thinking, I'm afraid.Double his wages at rotherham just like sharps

Terry Dicon linked to Preston North End.
Has previously worked with Westley before and has been approached as a possible option to replace outgoing Hume(3)(8)Who ??? And hume isnt leaving i know this for a fact as he lives near meShould this be terry dixon not diconHume is not leavingHume is definately staying, stop making things up that are clearly wrongDixon isn't even Conference standard, no chance of this happeningHume isnt leaving......I know this for a fact......."AS HE LIVES NEAR ME"....classic, doesnt get any better than this comment as to why there are only 9,000 PNE fans left......Supidity!!Hume is not leaving? Oh yes he is!He's going back to his beloved Tranmere!Hume isn't leaving, just look on hid twitter account!I expect to see Hume play for Tranmere before his career is out, but there's no way they could afford him on his current PNE deal, which has two years to run.

Lets face it, if Ronnie Moore had any kind of budget, he would have been able to prevent both his captain and Player of the year switching to Deepdale.Lets face it, if it wasnt for Ronnie Moore Trameres Captain and player of the season would be in League 2....they were that poor. I bet Ronnie has his eye on some quality Bosmans, Free's & loans to get the team to the top half of League 1......Not 15th like some clubsHa 'his beloved Tranmere', thanks for that, I needed a good laugh

Michael Owen and Owen Hargreaves are to be offered one year contracts at Brighton. Arron McClean will have talks with Gus and Chairman when Poyet returns at the Weekend from Uruquay. The bad news is three clubs, Reading, Fulham and Aston villa are pursuing Bridcutt...£2.5 million has been put to the club!(5)(29)1. owen has said he wont join championship side prob off usa
2. hargeaves has hardly played in 7 years and will retireUtter rubbish,owen already stated he will only play in premierThis fool was comming out with this rumour last year lolJust plain daft if you think Owen or Hargereaves are Brighton bound although Bridcutt could well be on his way as Gus never stands in the way of a player progressing his career. He wont go cheap though - £3m with add-ons seems likely for a player Chelsea let go for nothingAnd as I said offers are being put to them! Hargreaves has never said he I retiring at the moment unless u have a hotline to him. Don't forget Bloom and Owen are very good friends so maybe a one year deal will suit him before he goes to the U S.Bridcutt? no way are we in for him, just b/c he was born in reading he gets linked to us?Neither of those would go to a championship team realistically. I like Brighton, a good club, great fans and a nice new ground but they wouldnt sign for you unless you got promotedOwen will probably join Stoke, Hargreaves will probably go to a foreign club, maybe in the US or Canada. If any club will sign Bridcutt, it would be Norwich, with their track record of raiding Brighton each season !I wish these two donkeys somewhere else what we need are thoroughbreds.

Diakete has signed for QPR according to the the offical nancy website.. great singing(15)(3)Great news if he continues to improve like he was we have a world class player and with Ale coming back from injury looking goodHe has got a cracking voice!I've checked there site and nothing on there about itYou,ve got more chance of signing Holt from Norwich than Jaime Mackie from us.I have seen it, i am a bit upset with that but at least we are signing peopleSamba Diakite's twitter says he's signed.Why u upset samba diakite is a great player. Remember the last half of the season? Diakite was r best player . Great news, brilliant signing and a coup at £3MGood signing well done sparky & coThis isnt true. i just checked the AS Nancy website and they have nothing said about Diakite although the deal is close. Part of his loan contract to QPR was that if they stay up, they will have first choice in signing himI am upset because his runs are pointless the majority of the time and he was one of the worst players towards the end of the seasonPerson above obviously doesnt know what they're talking about.... players who make runs and go on dribbles change the game!I know people who make runs are gamechangers but Diakite is not, the ball always seems to be 2-3 feet ahead of him and he runs into the wrong places

Oldham Athletic have offered a deal to out-of-contract Aldershot keeper Jamie Young. Young has been on Oldham's radar for a while, as current #1 Alex Cisak is wanted by a number of Championship clubs, and out-of-contract understudy Dean Bouzanis is understood to be considering offers elsewhere with the guarantee of first team football.(1)(6)If Cisak goes then Bouzanis will be the number 1 keeper. Payed a minimal fee for Cisak so 350K will be a good deal.Well...Jamie Young. 26yr old, 5'11" Australian-born England U-20 international of Sri Lankan/Scottish descent.
At least it sounds like he's a character.?But around 30% of the 350k goes to Accy Stanley

He has family just outside Sheffild and has become best mates with wensdays liam palmerso happy to move northHas he put pen to paper for Wednesday thenHe's actually stated his wish to push on and make a claim for a starting roll in the premiership with Reading (check the official site)It's true he has said the right things about fighting for a place but he's prob 4th choice in his position and there's a player limit for premiership squads. He's on his way or he's out on loan despite making the right noises. All part of smoothing the way ti the destination he wants not where the club might push him. Mark my words hell end up in Sheffield sooner or later. It's just about the feeLet's be honest this isn't anything against Wednesday because it happens to charlton too, but players say they wish to sign all the time if they have a successful loan period and 1 time out of 10 they sign he'll go where he gets the most money and playing time and where he can play in the best team e.g if reading sell him and us, you and Swansea offer deals he'll 9 times out of 10 pick Swansea or the higher division teamIll be surprised if antonio gets in our 25. expect him to go to Shef Weds
MrRfcStill waiting for wednesday to come in with a decent offer, if they continue to drag their heels he will be off somewhere else.Coutts isnt going! charlton fan!Waghorn does not score enough goals!

Charlton are favourites to sign Keith Andrews after the Euros. Chris Powell will also attempt to gain the signiture of sean wright phillips, this will most likely be a loan move for sean to try and find form.(4)(18)Charlton do not take long term loans, for Gods sake. If you were a Charlton supporter you'd know that.Charlton must be signing
150 new players for the
next season
must have millions to
pay the wagesWhat form,built a reputation on a name,been a dud everywhere.Mate its Shaun not Sean, if your going to make up rubbish at least spell it right.Hope its true heard celtic were looking,his agent must be good cause he is guff.

Eden Hazard: Chelsea complete transfer of Lille midfielder

Chelsea have completed a deal to sign midfielder Eden Hazard from French club Lille.
The Belgium international, 21, has agreed personal terms and passed a medical with the Champions League winners.
"He will join the club in July when the players return for pre-season training," a Chelsea statement read.
Hazard said: "I'm delighted to finally arrive here, it's a wonderful club and I can't wait to get started."(23)(7)

Christian Jolley is a target for Reading FC as they were looking at him throughout last season. The want to build on Jolley and McDermott believes that he could be good back up for RFC's wingers. AFC Wimbledon are reported to have told Reading that they want £250k for the young and talented winger.

The Football 411(7)(7)Muist be a real Premier prospect for £250k!!
(Oxlade-Chamberlin cost £12m-says it all!)If we sign this fella he must be one for the future. I cant see him getting anywhere near the first teamGood player, lots of pace, villa scouts watched him this year, be sad if he leavesJolley is fit, strong and has plenty of pace, he will give 100% McDermott will improve him...and if he gets the opportunity he will score more goals than Oxlade-Chamberlin.Jolley is an absolutely sick player, can take anyone on easily. incredibly skillful. but lacks a final ball i.e. a cross, or a pass. his finishing is relativity good. got a season ticket at wimbledon so seen him all year

Now Malky Mackay has committed his future to Cardiff there will be a statement showing the intent of Mr.Tan and the club to get promoted. Mackay will have a large transfer budget (by championship standards) and his targets are:

Bjorn Sigurdson
Ricardo Fuller
Connor Wickham (loan)
Giovanni Dos Santos
Craig Bellamy (depending on the role Brendan Rodgers plans on using him)
Vladamir Weiss (loan)
Fabio (loan)
Chambers

Players he is looking to move on are:
Earnshaw
Parkin
Blake
Keinan
Gerrard(20)(33)Can Cardiff afford the £3.5 million Lillestrom want for Sigardursson?Thought he was pulling the plug due to your not wanting to change to playing in redMankey committed? He doesn't know the meaning of the word.Dream on,lolWell they put in an official bid of £5.5 for jay. Rodriguz

I'd love the City to get all of the above names but in reality we'd probably get 3 of them at best (due to other clubs wanting them). Personally i'd like to see B.Sigurdson, Connor wickahm and G.Dos Santos....Also Bellamy is always welcome back, if he decides to return!Parkin is off to Yeovil. Piece of Cake !! {Ed025's Note - nice one..Norwich fan here. Hope malky doe's stay he is a fine man and would be welcome back to NCFC any time. But in this world of money orientated decisions nice to have a man stand by his word. Good luck Cardiff you deserve to be playing at Carrow Road with Malky as your boss and in the Premiership"Good luck Cardiff you deserve to be playing at Carrow Road with Malky as your boss and in the Premiership"

I have nothing against cardiff or mackay but they are where they deserve to be, until they get promoted that's the championship.It looks like cardiff could will sign sigardurson on a 3year deal with a £3mil+ add onns....Glad parkin is in his way out, nice guy but not a champioship player!We'll get promoted this year hopefully we won't bottle it againDoes cardiff have the money for these transfers? Hell yes!
Yes the plans for the change for colour have been put on the back burner for a season, they will look at it again next season as after the inital up roar it has turned out that 75% of fans are in favor of the change!
An offical statement was made by the BILLIONAIRE owner that they are still fully committed to next season and the future of CCFC! they ain't going no where! and as said in another post an offical bid of £5.5M was in place for j rod!Official Rebrand statement today!!! We will be in Red at home next season but with it comes huge investment including new training ground , all historical debts cleared and the VT and TG's investment being turned into equity in shares. Cardiff City FC can now move forward debt free!!!! (and with a pretty handsome war chest!!)

 


04 Jun 2012 17:07:15
Jermaine Easter, andy dorman, David wright, Owen garvan, and Kagisho digkagoi have all been told they are surplus to requirements at Palace and will not feature next season, variety of reasons, some squad disruption, some poor performances. Palace looking to tie up a deal for a centre back and a striker by Thursday.

Jamie Mackie who is thought to be on his way from QPR is a target for Paul Jewell at Ipswich.He's tested the water with a 1.5 million bid(5)(23)Why would a first team regular be on his way out especially as he has just signed a contract extension, not happening at all and if he were to be going 1.5 mill is a jokeBiggest load of rubbish I've ever heard. QPR turned everton and west ham away, no way is he going to Ipswich.To true the guy is a gem,works hard,sparky wont be letting him goHe signed a new contract last weekBullsh#t, Mackie was runner up player of the season and just signed new contract til 2016, dream on carrot cruncherCarrot cruncher? Oh how we laughed at that..not. what a truly lame attempt at an insult.I live near Ipswich,support qpr,and can categorically state that Mackie WONT be going anywhere let alone a club in terminal decline like Ipswich lol

Derby county to sign

Rhys Murphy-Free Transfer
Aidy White-Free Transfer(5)(10)White will only go to derby if he has no ambition,lol, besides he's staying putStaying put lol.lEEDS ARE jOKE.Im not saying derby is what it used to be but leeds finished below us and have lost us 7 times in a rowWarnock said he doesn't expect him to stay but doesn't say he'll move, plus as a derby fan i feel this website is saying were signing alot of players that are high value/prem interest/high wages in which case its lies

He is trying to agree a package to leave Preston after being transfer listed by the League One side.(9)(2)

Gylfi Sigurdsson does not want Reading return.Danny Murphy on way to sign for Blackpool on 1 year deal. Joe Allen would consider moveing away from Swansea. Scott Sinclair future also foggy. Kevin Phillips wants to join a Premier League club despite agreeing a one year etension to Blackpool FC, he wants to play his final year of his carrer in the Premier League. Marius Zaliukas on verge of Southampton move. Russell Martin staying at Norwich. Grant Leadbitter wants Premier League move also.(3)(24)Leadbitter signed 3year deal with boroGrant leadbitter signed for boro last week, canny rumours these like lolLeadbitter has only just signed for middlesburgh on a FREE from IpswichJoe allen would only leave to join rodgers at liverpool, which isnt allowed for a year, and as for sinclair, he can f offHoly craap you can read sigurdssons mindLeadbitter already went to Middlesbrough which just shows all of this is untrue .Leadbitter joined middelsboroughSo the fact that Holloway lets Philips stay in Brum Mon-Thurs and train at home, giving him amazing freedom & great pay matters for nothing? Stop playing football manager and get a grip. I would also think the fact that he said he loves the football, the manager, and the club and he has decided to spend his final year playing for Blackpool mean nothing?! Of course, I forgot, you said we're selling him so he's obviously gone.I never thought we'd have a chance of resigning Gylfi anyway. He's going to Liverpool as he is better than all the midfielders they have bar GerrardYour obviously wrong! Leadbitter went ages agoMichael Laudrup to be next Norwich Manager. Top league experience, hungry for success and would be a great stepping stone for himThis is a good rumour dont want to loose him but think the blackpool thing might be a goer,think we need some young blood.

 


04 Jun 2012 16:17:05
malkey has just said hes staying at cardiff and in even better news the owners are putting huge investment into the club which will be announced later this week.(21)(6)So that's Mankey off then. His word counts for nothing.It's true!Brendon rogers said he didn't want the Liverpool jobHe was never ruled out by the chief executive of liverpool Malkey was by the norwich chief executive. P.S Watford fans go away

Shwan jalal going to huddersfield in part exchange for Alex smithies plus 300 thousand pound? Source friend of jalal(5)(24)Even more rubbish even tho would be happy to see jalal huddersfield would never ever ever sell there goalkeeper for that cheapSeriously doubt Alex Smithies would go to BournmouthAre you having a bubble? Seriously? Smithies back to League 1, the division that we have been promoted from. If Smithies goes anywhere it will be PL, hopefully with us. Just needs a full season behind him.That is ludicrous Shawn jalal is our second choice keeper and smithies just got promoted

Mark Hudson is set to lead the exodus from Cadiff this summer by returning to either charlton or palace where he spent the best days of his career. Villa have also stated an interest in resigning whittingham(4)(22)No thanks, morrison is betterWhat's your source ? His best days have been in cardiff...I'm a Charlton fan and to be honest I don't recall his time with us with any fondness at all. No disrespect to the player, maybe it was not the right time but, he had some awful moments with us. I can't see us wanting him back and we have better centre backs now.Hudson was crap. he was a Palarse reject when he joined us and that showed. No way is this happening.Hudson was crap at Charlton. Wouldnt get in front of Cort or Taylor to partner MorrisonQuite the oppisite actually i heard that city were looking at morrison..again only speculation but there's no smoke without fire hey!I wouldn't be surprised if Cardiff were looking at Morrison, or lots of other clubs for that matter. However, I can't think of a single reason why he would want to go to a club that have been going nowhere for a long time, or why Charlton would consider letting him go there.

 


04 Jun 2012 15:34:02
Charlton are not going for Beavon as Powell has stated he wants high class players and osborne from brentford is a no as well . Quinn from sheffield utd is the more likely signing and Baldock loan will only happen towards the end of the transfer window as CP wants his own players.There won't be any activity or rumours till july 1st when the window officially opens.One signing going round is Delfouneso from villa which is more likely to be on loan but depends if lambert wants him or not and staling from liverpool is another rumour due to the shelvey deal.(4)(9)We have put in a double bid for Quinn and McGuire of Sheff Utd, i know this from sources in the clubAnd its sterling BTW, there is also a high possibility of him and other liverpoolies coming to us, along with inter milan as we have a loan deal with them that started years and years ago but they screwed us by taking great players from us and never sending us one playerAnd its sterling BTW, there is also a high possibility of him and other liverpoolies coming to us, along with inter milan as we have a loan deal with them that started years and years ago but they screwed us by taking great players from us and never sending us one player
-------------------------------------------------
They did screw us over by sending us Sorondo. Thats also why the deal ended when we got Relegated from the PREM.What great players have they taken from us ?Ahhh I didn't know the deal ended when we got relegated, my bad!Well we sent Michael turner to them on a six month exchange when he was 16, they also took other promising youths that haven't made it big because they went to Italian footie

 


04 Jun 2012 15:24:02
El Hadji Diouf to return to French football with Lyon and St Etienne interested as Leeds cannot match his wages he demands.(6)(11)How is this guy still in football? he is the worse person, he is 10 times worse then joe barton.....and him demanding wages is crazy he should be lucky to be playing, horrible person!! {Ed025's Note - he is a horror bag mate..between him, barton, and john terry,,i dont know who is the worst..He got relegated with doncaster how would he then go on to champions league football.THat is jokesIf doncaster could afford his wages so can leeds.Just made up stuff by an idiotEl hadji diouf what a joke never rated him

 


04 Jun 2012 15:19:28
McNally has stated that he is looking for a manager with "top-league" experience. This would rule out managers like Lee Clarke, Gus Poyet and possibly Chris Hughton. He also stated that it is a "European search", any idea on any European managers that would go to Norwich?(3)(2)I would try and get what players you've got at the minute to stay first because who wants to manage a team going nowhereHughton has Premier League experience and you won't get a big name manger has your a little fish in a massive pondHoughton has managed in top flight with newcastle silly boyWhy would it rule out Hughton. He managed Newcastle, quite successfully, in the Premiership?Rafa Benitez!Hughton managed Newcastle in the Premier League...pretty sure that is a top leagueOne year in management at Newcastle in the Premiership hardly constitutes as experience though does it.If you read this carefully I did say "possibly". Next time make sure you can read properly before criticizing.The last thing Norwich want is Steve Bruce whoose record on managing in the Premiership is awful {Ed001's Note - and yet he had Wigan finishing mid table, while Martinez had them in a relegation dogfight! Strange how Martinez is so highly rated by the media.}Completely agree with the last post! Never rated Matinez and do see why he's such hot property after a couple of abject seasons!

 


04 Jun 2012 15:10:43
Keith Andrews in set to join Charlton Athletic on a Free Transfer as his contract has expired with WBA, however no decision will be made until he and Ireland are finished at Euro 2012(7)(20)More likely to go to readingBeen in alot of London News PapersReading are interested in sanchez who is CM and andrews is CM so no he isnt going to readingHe's more likely to end up at Ipswich, where he was on loan until his WBA move, would be an automatic captain for the Tractor Boys

Aidy white is set join his friend Jeff
hendrick at Derby county after being
promised to be seen as a first team
player.

Fact

of 1 extra.

If your watching Ireland U21 v Italy
U21 you can Andy Garner in the
Stands.Whos there supporting
both Jeff Hendrick and hoping
for Aidy to shine.(6)(11)Must be true because you say fact,lol, NOTWhat a load of waffle, he will pick derby over newcastle and arsenal you plum!!! o.wNewcastle and arsenal dont want him.
The highest club that are interested is
bolton where he wasnt promised first team football and he felt that the club
will will take along time before its strong.
Ask him on Twitter who has made contact with him.Arsenal and Newcastle never heard so much bullDerby? No way.He will pick derby ever ANYBODY is the joke,obviously a wind up ,lolAs a derby fan i must say we wont sign him, yes newcastle were interest in him (dunno if they are now) but he could play for a bigger club, on top of that were apparently signing alot of players according to this website so nothing is fact until the deal is done.

 


04 Jun 2012 14:55:09

Wrong age and no better than we already have.Who ?Oh no! Not himHope not. We need better than this to compete in the prem.I'm a Hearts season ticket holder but have family who live in and support Southampton. He played well in the Cup final but in general if you want to rely on someone getting sent off or scoring an og he's your man !Zaliuskas is poor the scottih legue is low championship high legue 1 i think jos and jose are much beter what a waste a money, hopefully this doesnt happen.

Bristol City have accepted 2 bids from burnley and unnamed league 1 club believed to be Bournemouth pitman agent with have talks with oth clubs about a possible transfer(11)(9)Pitman has been in talks with burnley aparentley colapsed not in a milion years will he come back to us at afcb.Whats the source?
i wouldnt mind having pitman back at bournemouth but cant see it happening after we've already signed 2 strikersYou are spot on with that comment.
Bret knows Burnley are a bigger championship club but he and his family love Bournemouth and apparently the new owners can match the deal offered by BurnleyBurnley aint spoke to pitman or his agent, so no talks have broken down...While Brett would always be welcome back at Dean Court, the last thing we need is another Striker.Since when are burnley a bigger championship club than bristol city? total rubbishSince always !Burnley HAVE spoken to Pitman and his agent.
A done deal when JR signs for Saints later this week.
Deal in the region of 1 millionBurnley are a miles bigger championship club than Bristol City. As shown by your previous 2 league finishes where as Burnley finished 12th, 8th and were in the Premier League the season before.Plus afc Bournemouth have had a bid accepted but I believe burnley have offerd 10k a week which afc bournmouth won't match so he could join burnley but u never know

04 Jun 2012 14:10:27
Richard Brodie to start season with Crawley again.(6)(4)No Chance he is on the transfer listRichard Brodie is contracted to Crawley Town until June 2013 - see Crawley club website 8 May 2012 "Retained List". No reason why he shouldn't be part of Crawley's plans for next season.Don't see it. Only played in the conference. If Brodie had nothing to do with Crawley they wouldn't be going for him if he had been released from a conference club. {Ed003's Note - ?? I'm not getting you??, he already is a crawley player,he was out on loan last year}Yes already a Crawley player, but because of Crawleys rapid rise, he last played when they were in the conference (the highest level he is done) and Crawley are now in league 1). If Brodie had signed for say 5 years and Crawley found themselves in the premier league, again, why would you play him simply because he is there when the conference is the highest level he has played at.

 


04 Jun 2012 14:03:33
Swindon town to seal signing of reading striker Mathieu Manset on a 2 and half year deal this week.(14)(10)Two and a half year deal in the summer? seems pretty stupid to sign someone who's contract we finish in January. I wonder if someone is lying.Half year deals only occur for january signings... whilst the signing itself may happen, the contract length you have made up is rubbish...They won't get Morrison for 250k. Double it at leastWhy do people write so much rubbish on this page with all the player Swindon are so say signing we could field a different team each game.

Stevenage are very interested in signing Andre Gray and Benik Afobe. Should they fail to bring either one of these players in, they will go for James Constable.(2)(12)Afobe dream on....Not a hope of getting afobe - he was at my team, royals on loan from jan 2012 to end of the season - he was ok, still a bit raw - i think he'll do ok but reckon arsenal will loan him to championship team for the season

Darren O'Dea - Free(18)(18)The Sanchez move to Reading is definitely on, trust me250k For morrison? we wont sell him to you for less than we bought himSam Baldock will remain in London or the South, could be a loan deal with Ipswich or CharltonI'm a town fan and no way will we be getting Morrison for that low price.£250k for Morrison?! More like £750k!What about lafferty ?Itll take 500-750k to sign morrison at leastCan see basically all of these happening, except prices are a bit low on most of them, and replace darren o'dea with kyle laffertySam baldock would be greatYou wont get Sam Baldock, linked with the league one champions Charlton and if he's stupid enough to choose the team that finished 20 points behind them then hell fit right in at uddersHave him hes rubbish

Burnley to make double signing of Dobbie from Swansea(1M) and Pitman of Bristol C(500k)(14)(8)Thought Eddie Howe wouldnt sign ANY player over 25.....so that rules out Dobbie & Pitman wont go further than Bristol because of his family....so that rules him out.....so dont think either will join as it's selling time of Burnley to try and balance the books.Dobbie was definitely a target ,Pitman also definites btw the clarets have signed George porter from orient deal done. Two weeks ago ,but has yet has not been anounced his agent is John Terry's brother

Bradford City have today agreed a £75k fee with Mansfield Town for striker Matt Green, who scored 29 goals in 44 appearances at Conference level last season. Green is set to sign a 2 year deal with The Bantams, as they look to bolster their attacking options.

Ex Huddersfield Town defender Nathan Clarke has also been offered a contract at Valley Parade.(7)(12)Bullst mate!! Green has got a 2 year deal with us and he even said he is not going anywhereI'd be delighted if Nathan Clarke signed for Bradford. Think he might be on too big a wage but defo worth enquiring! Mcardle Davies Clarke Parker would be a very good back four.

Orient Manager Russell Slade wants Carroll on a long term lone to replace Matt Spring who is having talks with a Div1 club.The pilkington move is likelyReally cannot see newcastle even wanting pilks. did a good job for norwich when he played! but spent most his time on the bench towards end of the season. think newcastle have the sights a bit higherHe is not for sale, so Newcastle need to look elsewhere

Reading FC have walked away from deal for Watford's Adrian Mariappa. Second improved bid of nearly £2m incl add ons was rejected.(9)(16)Bid was accepted weeks ago. Medical will be completed after Mariappa returns from international duty.2 bids rejected and walked away, Alan pardew expected to make 4 mil bid after having a 3.5 mil bid rejected in JanuaryMariappa to sign for reading after returning from playing for the Jamaica national teamBid was rejected. just hopeful reading fans saying the bid was accepted.Even the local Watford paper doesn't believe that the bid was rejected. It's just Watford trying to appease their fans by saying "Well at least we tried to keep hold of him" when Readibg sign him. It's just hopeful Watford fans who think that the bid was rejected.Bid was accepted, 100%
MrRfcDon't want Shorey back and if Sanchez wants 40k a week, then we don't want him either. It's vital that the wage structure is maintained. It's what Reading are aboutHope we get Sanchez, but agreed he is not worth 40k/wk at the moment...but at some point 'the Reading way' will have to change if AZ's 5 year plan is to come to fruition. We won't get to be a top 10 club without spending more than we do right now.

jono forte of southampton set to join notts county for a fee of around 300k as saints look set to clear out squad players allowing them to get a 25 man prem squad set up(14)(12)This one is quite probable, and another 3/4 to follow. No disrespect to the players involved, but if they are not going to be used on the pitch in the Premiership it is only fair they are moved on to somewhere where they can be fully utilised and to continue with their careers.Forte will certainly be leaving. He had one good game since joining and wasn't even in the squad at all last year.That one good game was a really important one too. I thank him for that!I'l thank him for leaving.If Notts County had 300k to spend, they would not spend it all on Jonny Forte. 75k tops.75k he isnt that badGood luck to himI wouldnt spend 300k on forte. 150k more like. i doubt we have 300k to spend anyway.

Norwich have made an approach to former Huddersfield manager Lee Clark(24)(30)Have you not read anything Mcnally has said?McNally has stated that he is looking at candidates that already has experience managing in premier or top European league so that would make your rumour very unlikely.Sounds like steve mclaren

Former Nottingham Forrest winger Paul Anderson to sign for Blackpool today.(18)(2)

 


04 Jun 2012 11:46:28
Morecambe's Laurence Wilson set to join Bradford.(2)(8)Thought he could have at least gone to a progressive team rather than sidewaysHe's gone to a bigger club mate, first time for alot of seasons we have a bit of money,watch this space shrimp face!It isn't a sideways move. Its a backwards move.Bradford ought to have some money. They must be selling season tickets for the 2017/18 season by now.We could sell them too as we actually have a fan base jealousy is a terrible thing!Well with a population of over 500,000 compared with 46,000 it would be surprising if you didn't sell a lot more season tickets. But we don't have to sell them years in advance or give them away !Despite a granted fan base which generates money, you are still down with the paupers of the League. Something must be going badly wrong, season after season after season.

Luton are to announce the double signing of Chris Zebroski and Craig Stanley from Bristol Rovs in the next week. Enoch Showunmi is also a target if they miss out on Jon Shaw. Kidderminster's Dave Hankin and Stevenage's Ronnie Henry also on Buckle's hit list.(10)(8)

Yousseff Mulumbu (West Brom), in talks
Nathaniel Clyne (C Palace), in talks
Yacine Brahini (Rennes), handed in transfer request(13)(20)Can't be a backward step? Albion are established and Shorey played a role in that. If newly promoted reading fans believe they are on par with 10th placed baggie they will have a shock next year!!

Readings move for Carlos Sanchez is on the verge of collapse as he wants £40K a week and Reading are not willing to give him that much. Reading are also looking at former Royal Nicky Shorey the left back having recently been released by West Brom. They are also considering competing with Aston Villa for the signature of Grant Holt.(11)(19)We are going to have pay the money to get the players to compete also shorey backward step not good enough for WBA not good enough for usSachez will sign
MrRfcShoreys shocking from an albion fan thanks for long tho ;) and shorey would be alrite for you lotI know you have new investment, but there is no way you will be paying any player 40K a week, your management have already stated that they will invest but wisely likme Swansea and Norwich last season, so stop thinking you are going to do a QPR and throw stupid money about, and QPR have thrown stupid money on players apparently Barton is on £60K a week which still has four years to run which represents £11M+
I for one do not think he is a great player more a solid premiership level player who also has major baggage and a red mist problem.I would resign Shorey on a one year deal with the option of a further year, he's quicker than Ian HarteShocking for albion but ok for reading - erm and how have you fared against us in the past 3-4 games- oh yes you lost 1-0, 3-2, 3-2 and drew 2-2Agree that although we have the invested we wont pay silly wages like qprYou obviously havent seen shorey run for a long time then mate hes shocking

 


04 Jun 2012 11:33:43
Preston North End will sign François Zoko in a two year deal(12)(17)He was the best forward seen at Deepdale last season. Let's hope it happens.Yeah he was the best that played us .. But .! We were very bad last year .. Very badAnd lets all hope that it continues like that...I cant see Zoko dropping down to a team that finished 15th (below Carlisle) He will be looking for a Championship club to take a chance on a league 1 journeymanWhy , let's all hope 2 us 2 fail ? He knows he goin team that will be up there challenging ,, not makin the numbers up like our Cumbrian friends ..!!Challenging......Challenging for what? Your all new PNE team hasnt even kicked a ball yet and after the dross that Westley brought in at Christmas, what makes you think that he will get it right with players who were at best average from Yeovil & Tranmere. Why should you suddenley become a good team overnight....If it was that easy, every club would sack off all it's players and bring in a whole new team.....oh wait, that's exactly what you have done......League 2 here you come.U say all the players we got & getting , average .. Does zoko come into that category .. Average ? All I said ,,, we were bad last year . Anything gotta b better ..so therefor & poss challenging ? But I'll b watching for all the mega signings in this div1 & if u check , ull see all these signings were offered contracts by there clubs !

Reading could be a top 8 club be it depends on what the new owners do when madejski is out of the picture(11)(36)Any club could be be top 8, all depends on results not your investments.Reading will never be a top 8 club for as long as you are in the premiership and that may only be 1 season but if more you will always be fighting relegationToo many of you Reading supporters trying to run before you can walk.

Your club needs to survive the first couple of seasons in the Premiership-that is your priority. Both Reading and West Ham will struggle to do that."Reading will never be a top 8 club for as long as you are in the premiership and that may only be 1 season but if more you will always be fighting relegation"

And man city will never win the title, oh they did. Anything is possible and things do change.You say too many Reading FC fans are running before they can walk, but on this forum it seems that more people are writing us Royals off. We work well as a team, We have a club in next to no debt compared to other clubs in the prem, and we have an amazing manager that scouted players for us such as Kevin Doyle.Instead of poking your unwanted nose into what Reading are doing worry about your teams . Jealous of how well we are doing? Investors who care? Players that have passion? Top class manager?And Southampton...sorry Lambert FC won't?Is that the Keven Doyle who got relegated with Wolves ?, hardly a stand out player in premiership.

Stating that you can be a top 8 club is plain stupid and making your club a target from other clubs supporters.
Southampton supporters are also talking like they are world beaters and that they appear to be signing everybody, similar to your own fans comments.
Leicester supporters were full of themselves last year and throwing money around like confetti and where did they finish.
Your target next year should be exactly what Norwich & Swansea wanted,to finish 17th or higher,anything else was a bonus.Who are they going to replace in the top 8 haha? You could say that about my team Newcastle but they replaced Fulham who aren't/weren't exactly touchThe point you seem to have missed at Reading is you may have new investors but you have yet to see the colour of their money in terms of new players and facilities to help you in the Premiership.

You don't have to look far to find other clubs who have suddenly become excited about the chance to be another Chelsea and find they turn out to be a Portsmouth!
So, yes, walk before you can run, because otherwise you may fall flat on your face.Reading were 8th last time they were in the premier league so no point saying we will be in a relegation battle cause you don't know that.Pretty sure we finished eighth in our first season in the premiership, although we had a better team then, we have a decent amount of money now.'Is that the Keven Doyle who got relegated with Wolves ?, hardly a stand out player in premiership.'

Kevin Doyle was the 6th top scorer in the PL with Reading in 2007, so you can't really say he wasn't a decent player. Besides, the commenter was referring to the SCOUTING of Kevin Doyle, who McDermott found out of nowhere and brought him in from Cork for 80k in 2005.Last time Reading were in the Premier League you got relegated, the season before you finished 8th. I dont think Reading will be a team that will finish top 8 every season.Honestly as a Reading fan myself id take survival. But Brian McDermott is probably one of the most underrated managers in the country. He has an amazing eye for a player, is a great tactician and has a great personality. I dont think we'll get top half but an 11th or 12th placed finish is realistic if we sign the right players. I cant see us challenging for europe in the near future but I don't think we'll be in a real relegation scrap eitherThis argument is stupid. Have to wait to see how we spend the money before you can say we're waste it. Also awesome players/managers come from reading e.g. Alan Pardew- Your newcastle manager

Sky Sports Football News are carrying a report that a number of clubs including Bristol City and Huddersfield are tracking Brighton's Calderon.(8)(13)Great player hopefully Brighton will keep hold of him.Going to either of those clubs would be a step backwards for him. And that's coming from someone who doesn't even like Brighton!{Big G Voice} Good cover fullback but we need a more talented player who can defend and get back quicker after getting forward. scored some important goals. verdict good but still requires some one better, rather have a new centre defender.Bristol city is not a small club, bigger fan base than BrightonBristol can have all the fanbase it wants but if they don't go to matches it doesn't matter a fat lot. Average last season was 4K per game less than Brighton. Hope you get your new ground before the old one falls down about your ears - it's going to be a close run thing!Lol are you joking bigger fan base we just sold 23000 seeason tickets ground extensiono 32750 by next season and we will fill itBristol city took over 10,000 more fans to the play off final than Brighton! So how u goin to sell 37,000 every week! Wake up!Bristol is alot closer to Cardiff than it is for Brighton which explains why there may have been a few more Bristol fans. Anyhow, I was there - Leon Knight, Knight Knight!You took more fans to the play off final because we had to travel 6 times the miles compared to Bristol city and we still out sung youHuddersfield are on the rise trust me, more money than both these clubs, bigger fan base and historyWell Bristol only being about an hour away from Cardiff and Brighton being about 5 hours away, swap the distances around and we will see who take moreThe play off final was at wembley not cardiff and if im not mistaken brighton is alot closer to london than bristol is and also were getting a new staduim just like you did but we didnt have to play and some rubbish athletics ground for yearsBristol city bigger fan base then Brighton lol really is that a jokeThe play off final was in cardiff when wembley was being redeveloped you obviously did'nt go because then you would of known and secondly we had to play in athletics ground because for well 2 years we played in gillingham because we had no ground you sir are are wrong

QPR looks his likely moveApparently the rich club in russia anzhi makhachkala want him, they can pay a fair ammount for him too!He might be rubbish but he's still too good for West Ham and out of their price rangeI would love Jones to leave he's a good player (however he's lazy) but he isn't playing.

You heard it first(11)(26)Gunter going to reading if he has ambitionReading fans, comments like the last one will only alienate all other supporters, according to you lot if Gunter comes tyo Norwich he will lack ambition ? , why because we finished 12th last season, just stick to rumours not slagging off other clubs, and be satisfied to just survive last year.Second season syndrome, Norwich will be down next season.

Reading (a yoyo team) is a smart choice

Bradford City have asked 2 Premier League clubs about a season long loan for a CB. Possibly Everton, tied in with the George Green deal?(2)(5)If everton it will be someone like femi orenuga who was at accrington last yearOrenuga isn't a CB. It will probably be a very young player seeing how Duffy is definitely in Moyes' plans.

Steve EFCAlso, hasn't Orenuga now been released?Hope it's Andre Wisdom from Liverpool. We need a right back and he can cover centre half too

MK Dons have accepted an offer of £300k from Peterborough for striker Dean Bowditch(4)(13)No they haven't. None of our players are for sale (unless it's silly money, and £300K for Bowd's isn't in that category). Darragh's more interested in paying legal fee's than transfer fee's right now.One has to admire in amusement, the determination of the Posh fans to their utmost to upset the MK Dons' fans... how sad.Now that is funny!Well that's rubbish haha none of our players are going to Peterborough pipe down.Dont be daftBowditch to sign for Peterborogh-haha don't make me laugh-he is far to good for POSH people like youMK Dons shouldn't even be in the league. They merely hi-jacked Wimbledons league place.Bowditch is a load of rubbish. If he did join us then it would be a very sad day for our football club!Don't be silly he should sign for posh.
He dose not deserve to play for mkd, from my piont of view mkd should not be playing in the league they should of started from the very bottom instead of stealing AFC Wimbeldon's place in the league.Why would posh want bowditch ? oh dearBowditch no chance signing for posh. He's too good for them! People need to get over it, we're in the league and it doesn't matter how we got there people need to move on and stop worrying about things which do not concern them!If you think Bowditch is too good for us then you know nothing about football!Give it a rest with the mk nicked the spot! Im an ex wimbledon fan and the club got saved, the fa then pissed it up! Afc created two whole years before hand!Wimbledon did not get saved. Their place in the football league was taken by a a club with no connections to Wimbledon who saw it as sheer opportunism to get a place in the football league without working through the system like any other new club. Every other football fan I speak to as I travel the country, without exception, have the same opinion despite what gloss you wish to put on itI agree with your comment regarding Wimbledon, it has been hijacked by those who have nothing to do with the club. The sooner Afc stop claiming the history to a club they started abandoning in 1991 and by 2002 denied even existed only have themselves to blame. You tried to kill the club, you failed, get over it and stop blaming others for your failure to support your club at its time of need. If you had, maybe it would have survived near where it was.'stealing AFC Wimbeldon's place in the league'

This is where you guys let yourselves down, you don't even know what happened.No one likes us - we dont care! We are MK super MK, we are MK Dons FC!


Stop worrying about what the MK Dons are doing and worry about your own team pal.

Oh and Alan Smith still mulling over Dons contract - Few other offers on the table but he does love the Mighty Dons!!Haha we didn't 'hi-jack wimbledon', we saved wimbledon from going bankrupt - get your facts right! haha8 years people give it a rest its done and all ya handbags wont change it. When or if AFC ever play us we will see who berty big balls is

AFCB and P'boro will be swapping places next season and would not be surprised to see Pugh stay with us.Bournemouth are not even an established league 1 team yet!Pugh will be leaving us, either this summer or Jan. He is not daft enough to go to P'Boro, his sights are either top championship club or stay put... i think he's going anyways.

Chapman, Leven and Constable will all leave Oxford. Constable wanted to stay and has shown his loyalty on more than one occasion, however Wilder feels the time is right for him to go, mainly because he feels he can replace him for a lot less than the current fees being mentioned for him. Chapman will only resign if there is no way out and clubs are now becoming aware of this, any fee set by trbunial will be very small so this is quite a blow to the club. Leven is a bit of a surprise, however expect some good bids which Wilder will except, again he will be expected to replace with only part of the fee recouped.
Oxford will however sign Shaw, this has the potential to be a very good signing.(1)(13)Jon Shaw will not move from his home near Newcastle.
Likely destination is Hartlepool.
Leven is having an op on a problem with his shoulder he has suffered with since boxing day.
So whose going to pay a good fee for someone injured, who only has one year left at Oxford, and was a free agent last season?
And it's 'accept' not 'except'Oooo sorry me lord! us peasant type folk do make a mistake sum tims ya no!! So what you are saying my oh so accurate freind is that really it's not worth keeping him then? Injured and soon out of contract....for starters the injury is not one that will threaten hi s career and secondly the fact that he will be out of contract means that this is the clubs best chance of recouping something is it not? Hope there is no errors in here my sire.

Paul Lambert to have 1 good season at Villa then will be the next manager of Man Utd once Ferguson retires. Lambert to this point has only used clubs to further his career, has no loyalty on that front only that he wants to manage at the highest level. Villa fans are deluded in thinking he will stay there, he will do the same to Villa as he has done to all the clubs he has managed so far. So , my money is on Paul Lambert taking over from Sir Alex Ferguson next season. Watch this space.(17)(33)Obviously a bitter norwich fan,lolYou are kidding right. There are five people that have a chance to replace SAF. Mourinho, Pep. Outside of those two Moyes, Ole or Giggs. Lambert thats the funniest thing i've heard all day. Maybe Spurs one day but never Man Utd. They would already have a plan in place and I can guarantee it's not Lambert.Sounds like a bitter norwich fan just remember what he has done for you and the division you was in when he took over he deserves to manage a big club like villaLoL at the dissilusioned man who wrote this post. I agree with the above comment Fergusen's replacement will be one of those five. My money's on Moyes (Fergusen is a big fan). Or Giggs (Rumour of support from players to have Giggs take over when he and Fergusen retire).It will take more than a season to get Villa back on track!I thought steve bruce was taking over fergie as he working close with him now at old traffordThink guardiola is nailed on for the job as saf will move upstairs after next season and guardiola taking a season out as for lambert think villa is his level at the moment but i could see him getting a big job in germany in the future if all goes well at villa as for norwich ye want to pray some of the rumours in the north east are not true cos relegation will be nailed on with bruce as next managerVilla are a club living on past glory! Paul Lambert had a fantastic time at Norwich and should be thanked with best wishes for the future. He will not be content at Villa, the chairman won't back him, why did they loose Martin Oneil? When Lambert gets as far as he can or a better offer comes along he will be off! One of the big four may take him, what links with Man U did Fergie have when he took over? So don't be sucked into thinking a replacement will come from inside. They will take the best man for the job and Lambert fits that mould so it's not so far fetched!How bitter he has done a great job for your club im a saints fan adkins has done a fine job for us and if he ever choses to leave if a bigger club wanted him id say he deserves it for the job he has doneI dont even think villa will stay up next seasonYou can't pencil a manager of his calibre because if he fails with Villa he won't even get a job with a mid table premier league teamVilla a big club?? now who is being deluded! villa will be relegation candidates again next seasonIf PL has the kind of season that earns him the United job then I think most Villa fans will be extremely grateful for turning the club around. Obviously this would also make the club an attractive proposition for the next elite manager to carry on developing a neuvo-top-4 side.
To be fair I think it is unlikely - but if the season proves the bitter NCFC fans right - then I will be happyThere is only 1 manager that is going to Man Utd and that was agreed many seasons ago. David Moyes has only stayed at Everton due to the knowledge that once Fergie retires, he will take over.Bitter canarie me thinks,you would still be in the wilderness without lambert,and why has he got to be loyal to any club,owners have no loyalty,so stop spouting crapUnless he wins the capital one cup + FA cup +Premier League and United get relegated. Then he may get the job if he is lucky

Millwall defender Alan Dunne is having talks with Stevenage this week. Meanwhile Millwall are to make a surprise bid for West Ham striker Sam Baldock.(0)(10)Dunne wouldnt leave millwall, he's a one man club so i dont know where you got this from. Also west ham wont sell Sam baldock to us!I will drive dunney there myself! im afraid that he is not a championship player! & baldock is an average player! coylDunne has become a liability, not Championship standard, behind Jack Smith in the pecking order now Malone will be playing left back - good move for all parties IMO; do they want Barron as well?We live and hope, I'll pay for a helicopter!Dunne and Forde have been our weak links for years!They both know the crowd are on them,Wont be sorry to see them goBy the way when i said we live and hope i was talking about dunne, at least barron tries

04 Jun 2012 07:44:21
United to reinforce soon hope to see some sensible reinforcements
GK - Vorm
LB -Baines
CM - Gaitan and Eriksen
ST - Defoe and/or Huntelaar(8)(25)Defoe is a must, and if they do get gaitan and Eriksson that would mean they are back on track.
But I have been told united have no money to spend after capture of kagawa and Powell so unless Fergie sells no more coming in.Go for huntelaar,gaitan/eriksen only we don't need baines,vormor defoe because we have de gea,lindegaard.

 


04 Jun 2012 07:33:55
Wolves strikers Jake Cassidy & Leigh Griffiths have emerge as Peterborough United targets. Posh also want Freddie Sears(5)(10)Doubt Cassidy we see him as a talent for the next few years n after bagging 7/8 goals in 3 months of 1st team football I'm sure he will play apart in our squad this seasonIf he is scoring that many goals then I don't think he will come to posh.

 


04 Jun 2012 07:31:10
Anthony Wordsworth of Colchester & Stevenage pair Luke Freeman & Michael Bostwick will complete moves to Peterborough in the coming week.(5)(10)Never gonna happenIts not beyond the realms of possibility.
I would be happy if Freeman came to posh.
I watched Stevenage in the play offs and was the best player on the pitch.

As a Reading fc fan I'm concerned that marriapa is waiting to see if any other offers come in before deciding on joining us this isn't the Reading way. We buy players that make us their first choice
Plus all this talk of money and how rich we are is making us look stupid in here
So please Reading fans lets keep it realistic. We will buy if it's right for the club. Not for buying sake.(6)(9)Marriapa is on holiday. There is a fee agreed but everyone thinks it has been rejected due to SSN being slow. He will sign in 2 weeks. I think we are all talking money due to this never happening before.Agree with you totally on wanting players that actually want to play for you. as a saints fan i will be disappointed if rodriguez doesn't join but if we're not his desired choice then its for the bestIt is now being rumoured that the deal has fallen through after Watford rejected a £2mil +add ons, seems the ball is in your courtWe will not spend madly players got us up will b given chance if goes wrong then in jan panic button will b hit and big money will b spentWe will put in a second bid for marriapa around 3.2 million. And they should accept it. His is one of our main targets as we try to strengthen our defence.Mariappa is not worth over 3m. 2.5m should get him I think or id tell Watford to get screwed

Lincoln CB Danny Hone is attracting the interest of Peterborough(7)(11)According to rumours peterborough will have
a squad of 65 if they sign all the players

Scott Loach has been linked with a move to Portman Road from Watford
Tomasz Kuszczak has also been rumoured to be on Jewells radar

Ipswich duo Jaime Peters and Nathan Ellington are wanted by
Walsall and Gillingham (Peters)
Doncaster and Colchester (Ellington)(13)(6)"Jaime Peters and Nathan Ellington " Sell they are uselessWatford can't afford tomasz k's wagesHe would drop his wages to play regular football and he wouldn't go to any English team except for Watford (Source:Watford Observer) or he would go to Germany but he would like to stay in England because of family.

liverpool:
dempsey
afelley
sigurdsson(29)(34)How many more times? Dempsey has said he only wants to move for Champions League - Liverpool are nowhere near that level and he is 29 - so can't wait 5 years for them to rebuildWhat are you talking about, you cant just demand champions league football you idiot, liverpool are the only ones showing interest atm if they make an offer hes not gonna say no and just hope city utd arsenal or chelsea just come along and do him a favour...Liverpool should do ok next season with decent signings. Hope Carroll can prove his worth seeing that other teams get players like hazard, modric, for cheaper.

Mk Dons are in talks with former Loanee Alan Smith who has been released by Newcastle and former Norwich defender Zak Whitbread

Former MK Dons player Aaron Wilbraham is rumoured to be in talks with league one side Walsall(15)(6)Bearing in mind Whitbred supposedly wanted more than £16 k a week at Norwich, hence his release, I can't see him signing for MK Dons unless they are prepared to make him their highest ever paid player as well as give large rsies to all their other squad members!
Whitbread has been linked with Villa (no surprises there), Sunderland and QPR.Whitbread got released because he is very injury prone nothing to do with wages.MK Dons will not offer any player more than 2.5K per week2.5k a week thats rubbish, we offered alan smith 6k"we offered alan smith 6k"

Did you not read the papers at the time we did the loan from Newcastle? We have a self-imposed wage cap of £2.5K per week (despite what you may have seen on Football Manager ;-) ), and would not break it for Smudger. Nothing has changed in the last six months.

 


04 Jun 2012 02:26:24
MK Dons are looking to sign free agent Izale McLeod for the second time. They sold him for £1.1 million five years ago and want him back as they build for another promotion push. Last season they lost Sam Baldock and Charlie MacDonald failed to deliver enough goals to get them the promotion they crave. The fans think Izale can fill the void left by Baldock.(12)(6)This is true. Izale on his way to the mighty Dons, Macdonald is no good, terrible stiker.

Barnsley are looking at

Defenders -
Jacob Walcott
Aaron Martin
Liam Moore
Miles Addison
Tamika Mkandawire

Midfielders -
Richard Chaplow
Therry Racon
David Bell
Craig Forsyth

Strikers -
Karl Sheppard
Robert Hall
Callum Ball
Nouha Dicko
Mamado Bagayoko

All are in the championship which is what keith hill is looking for. Even tho some are far fetched for Barnsley Keith thinks they would go well with the clubs dynamics(11)(21)Jacob Walcott is a striker...Richard Chaplow and Aaron Martin are now in the a premiership with Southampton FCKarl Sheppard is a Reading player so not from the championship. You may get him but only on loan.Martin and chaplow are premier leagueChaplow isnt in the championship and would never go to barnsleyTamika Mkandawire is one of our best, most vesitile players but unfortunately was out injured most of last year! No way KJ would let him leave! As for Racon.... I'll pay his taxi fare!!

liam lawrence,dave kitson,erik huseklepp,greg halford,tal ben haim and kanu join with joel ward,stephen henderson, jason pearce and benjani for leave of portsmouth fc.
balram chainrai to buy portsmouth fc and re-sign: david james,papa bouba diop,ricardo rocha,matt ritchie and jamie ashdown,with it the first team from portsmouth for the season 2012/13 will be:

1-james
4-mokoena
3-rocha
2-magri
14-webster
8-bouba diop
6-mullins
5-ritchie
7-norris
10-etuhu
9-futacs(5)(39)Im a portsmouth fan and if we got david james and ashdown james wouldn't be our number 1 also we cant afford diop championship clubs want him also we wont keep norris and mullins and i know ritchie is from portsmouth (gosport) but swindon are in our league now and he wont come back also i hear pompey want mcleod paynter when everything is resolvedCan not see the above happening, players like Bouba-Diop are the past! Wages are far too high. Appleton, given the chance, will build a youthful, hardworking team that may take a year or two before moving Pompey back up the divisions.Wish it was that easy100% No chance in hell. Pompey fans are the most deluded in the country.Hilarious, and i'm a Pompey fan! Appy has already stated that he'll not be signing anyone over 28 yrs old or so. Plus Mullins & Moks both earn well above the £3,000 ceiling on wages we'll have to have to perform within budget next season. Oh, and no Pompey fan would want Diop back! PUP.I have heard that this time balram chainrai will not pass the fit and proper person credentials by the football leagueDeluded what you on a bout? one fan says this and you say all pompey fans are deluded, im quessing your that team down the road then lolIm not a Southampton fan, but even I agree that Pompey fans are seriously deluded.I suspect you will find Chanrai is not accepted as a fit and proper owner-if it comes down to him. And, then, I'm afraid it leaves no interest in investing so I would seriously hold off booking any season tickets for a while.If Chanrai fails the fit & Proper test (which I very much doubt), then the Trust will buy Pompey. Either way, Pompey will rebuild based on youth. Some from the current players coming through and some via 'frees', etc. It will probably take a couple of years to sort out but agree that Pompey will most likely be back in the Championship in the not too distant future.I live in the same village as asdown was talkong to him at the village fair he says hes moving abroad so thats rubbishReally winds me up when people keep calling pompey fans deluded. idiots like the one who posted this rumour are the sort of "head in the clouds" people that we can do without. 95% of pompey fans know that we can't afford people of this calibre and are quite happy to accept whoever will be playing for us next season - happy in the knowledge that the club has survived.

Ireland also likely martin cranieSource? Anyone can state that a player is going to another club, but do try and get some credible confirmation from somewhere! Otherwise, we can all make rubbish up...

For instance....

Messi to Coventry!

Paddy Kenny linked with 500k move to Ipswich(8)(40)Everybody linked with move to ipswich,just nobody wants to go there,lolHe's going to Leeds as him and warnock work well together.Warnock will want his little baby back.Oh Yeh..all those people that don't want to join us...like Joel ward and...ehhh....mmmm. sorry can't think of anyone else! If youre a budgie you've got no room to talk as everyone wants to leave you! LolAt least they all don't want out like NorwichThought ward went to palace,lolYeah I know ward went to palace.

04 Jun 2012 00:02:17
Anderson. Owen. John brayford. Bruno of valencia. Jarvis. All signing for stoke tgis summer. Defoe agreed personal terms in january but price not agreed. Pulis will try tosign him this summer. If he cant he will try for lukaku on loan.

Jones whelen fuller woodgate collins higginbotham leaving(12)(30)Why Defoe want to go to a club who play the long ball? Defoe isn't very tall, so it's likely that the ball will sail over his head.U got any prof to back any of that up becasue they would all be great signing but can only see maybe one or two of them signingDefoe agreed to join in jan but harry blocked move so he would come and play for stokeI hope we dont get owen he is to injury prone and to the first comment its nothing that us stokies havent heard before plus deoe would love to join stoke so he can play upfront with crouch again which means if we wanted the long ball would work with crouch flicking it onto himFuller & Collins can come back to Ipswich, where they have played before, and get regular gamesWhelan signed a new contract in Jan so explain that one?

 


03 Jun 2012 23:56:27
Yeovil to sign John O'Flynn from Exeter as he wants to continue playing league one football. He will be a back up player mainly used as a sub.(5)(9)If only Yeovil would take him !O'flynn isnt conference standard let alone league 1He might as well go back to barnet

 


03 Jun 2012 23:51:49
Yeovil to beat Tranmere, Hartlepool and Carlisle to the signing of Freddy Eastwood as he doesent want to move up north.

Swear I saw him in Huish earlier today.(6)(10)Not sure about this rumour but I hope he does sign. Though he did give a hint on his twitter that he could be signing for Scunthorpe!Hes already going back to southend,Why would he be in huish on a bank holiday sunday when everyone is off and away.. if its true, he will come when johnson is back from holiday and look around and talkThats good news didn`t want him at rovers anywayHis goal scoring over the last few seasons is poor anyway so not a lot of takers for him really. league One teams need a scorer who can get 15 to 20 a season. he hasn't been in double figures.
