Bristol Rovers are to sell defender Adam Virgo. Virgo joined the club at the start of last season with Paul Buckle. McGhee has already worked with Virgo but has said it's up to the rovers board what they do. The offer seems too good for the gas to turn down for the defender who hardly played last season. It is believed to be in excess of 700,000 and the gas want to cash in.

I have heard Stoke are looking to bring in at least one fullback (or for pullis a centreback that can run) a midfielder and a 15+ goalscorer. Lookig like french fullback. Midfielder from bolton lee/davies looking likely and defoe (be nice but not likely due to wage demands) before that some deadweight would have to be shifted. Fed up of stoke being an england team from ten years ago

Rumours of Bristol Rovers' Chris Zebroski moving to West Ham are hotting up. Allardyce is said to be a big fan of Zebroski's mix of pace and strength with intellegence and touch, which very much fits into the Allardyce mold. Rovers are said to be holding out for £300,000 for the highly rated forward, however, and McGhee doesn't want to lose his star striker for anything less but may not be able to hold out against the players wishes. I would, however, be devasted if Zebroski leaves, but we should get premium for a player of his talent, West Ham have already offered £200,000 and are probably willing to go the extra £100,000.

What is actually happening at Portsmouth now? Have they got a buyer? Are they still going to be trading at the start of next season? Are they going to be able to get a team together for the start of the next season? It is not long away now.
Lots of reports on here about players leaving, but Portsmouth cannot sign anyone yet so are they going to have a squad of players together that can start off the season? Is Hayden Mullins staying at Reading? Is Kanu going to have to come out of semi retirement and earn some of his big earnings?

As a Saints fan of 25 years plus this is the
best financial state the club has ever known.
All the names banded around on here are probably well wide of the goals that the club are aiming for.
The thing we have to accept is we are here to compete to the highest level, as proven with the squad strength we have had to gain two promotions.
We have broken our transfer record already this summer,and would not be suprised by more significant additions to the squad.
