Tony Mowbray and Neil Bausor have screwed up everything ever and Middlesbrough are therefore not going to sign anyone to attempt to improve their relegation fodder squad.

Mowbray believes the power of Marvin Emnes will lift them into the Premier League though many believe he won't score any goals all season.

Chris Hughton is planning to bid for Papiss Cisse from Newcastle for Norwich after recent events regarding the shirt sponsorship. It is likely there will be other prem competition tho.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

How is Cissé on Aviva? Are they still sponsoring Norwich?

Are they "ethical"?

I have to query if West ham have lost a bit of focus on their ambitions to sign a striker. They wern't willing to initially pay out for Wilfried Bony until Swansea came along and then they bid but too little too late and it appears this is a constant trend they have developed. They bid on players when its far too late. Currently they mull over a move for Gary Hooper (who wants to join Norwich. REALLY? I somehow doubt it). Zapata waiting for work permit which they won;t get. Kenwynne Jones and Peter Crouch are available but are they really trying so hard to become STOKE CITY WANNABEES

Matty Brown signed a one year deal announced by Chesterfield today. Creswell deal dead in the water despite offering £100k (50K and 2 x £25 k instalments) so it looks like Cook has settled for Brown. Looks a good lad very big and strong very much out of the old fashioned centre half mould. Time will tell. Ventress

Ipswich have a wide range of centre-backs to pick from. Here's the latest.

Dan Seaborne won't be offered terms as he now joins Yeovil in pre-season training.

Titus Bramble has joined on trial, he wants to re-unite with his former club, MM says there's along way to go until deal develops.

Frederic Veseli has also joined on trial however MM looks likely to position him as a full-back instead of his trademark centre-back ability.

Bongani Khumalo is closing in on signing a loan deal from Tottenham.

The signing of Wolves pair Christophe Berra and Richard Stearman looks increasingly less likely after MM made it public that he is watching Manchester United defender Scott Wooton.

Watford all but signed Iriney Santos from Granada - Seen as a replacement for John Eustace who looks set to join Derby. Came up against Barca / Madrid etc last season, and was a regular for large parts!

McGugan, Abdi, Hogg, Battochio, Murray, and even Fabbrini / Forestieri / Anya / Cassetti / Pudil. Surely the most formidable midfield in this division?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Nope! Try Chung-yong lee, Holden, medo and eagles. Come on that would spank Watford back to the stone ages. Oh and yeah back up brigade of pratley, mark Davies, vela and my nan for a half decent shout.

Watford are expected to sign Iriney from Granada, he is an experienced Defensive midfield with strengths in tackling and commanding the team. GF Zola watching the player and move very likely since he plays for Granada which is Pozzo owned, would make a great replacement for John Eustace

Granada? Isn't that north west telly?

West Ham have turned attentions back to Jelavic

Believable0 Unbelievable0

The Everton player? Where's all that money coming from? I thought Karren "Serious Business Sense" Brady helped the Hammers blow all their budget on Eeyore, sorry, Andy Carroll.

Agree0 Disagree0

You mean England international Andy Carroll

Agree0 Disagree0

Have you seen the england team? not much to shout about to be honest

Agree0 Disagree0

If a donkey can play for England it says a lot about our own players.

Think about it.

Anyone got a carrot for Andy? He's peckish.

West Ham manager Sam Allardyce has revealed Andy Carroll will NOT be available for the start of the new season. He also revealed there has been no interest in Dorrans and we are unable to afford Downing, although he is a player Sam would like. Its become apparent that with 3 weeks to go until the start of the season West ham have no out and out striker. A work permit is being considered for Duvan Zapata, however, this isn;t a guarantee and with time running out, Sam needs to get a striker in and quick so he can settle and get to know his team mates before the first game. COuld well be a last day desperate measure as usual by Sam and bring in Di Franco at this rate
