{Editor Note: A few I've heard mentioned are Liam Rosenoir, Jason Roberts and Ishmael Miller among others. Not much else mate.}

That was correct about 2 months ago. I don't think we will be looking at signing these 3 now. I know we were interested in pilkington before he signed a new contract and bernard parker is almost a done deal. I was also told sven wanted 6 players including a big name toward the end of the window(0)(0)

Darren Ferguson hot favourite to take over at
Crystal Palace! Apparently his interview went
really well and nobody noticed that he had
actually loaned his dads C.V.(10)(9)

 

 03 Jan 2011 22:57:03
Elia at 13 million is a waste. If Ashley Young is going for 15-17 million, then that's a good buy. Elia is too soft and hasn't done much this year! Even Turan is a better player and worth the same amout as Elia.
For only 9 million we could get N'Zogbia (running the league amuck over the last couple of months!)
NOTE: Tom Ince has scored again, so IMO he'll be running the Reds LW for the next 10 years if he keeps up the development into a full time Pro.
Per Mertesacker at 10 million would be a blessing. Either Skrtel or Agger has to go, and I would prefer selling Agger as he's too injury prone and has regressed in the last year or so. Plus Danny Wilson is our future, hopefully, and we also have Kelly and the future Andre Wisdom coming up the ranks.

We need a boost and that comes from Forward moving players. .Sturridge is not a bad option (reminds me of a young Defoe), Keisuke Honda is a must and his shirts will sell like a good pint times a million in Japan!

Would be happy with:
Per Mertesacker
Keisuke Honda
Charles N'Zogbia or Arda Turan
((Fans must know that LFC will not buy 5-6 players in a mid-transfer window!))
Sell Jova, Agger, Poulsen, complete move of Aquilani.
AND. . .The sacking of Roy, Sammy Lee and staff. . Insert King Kenny with Thommo/ Barnes and that will spark the revleation to get in the top 4!

SIM THE RED(3)(6)

 03 Jan 2011 22:27:07
Alex who? If he is an experienced attacking midfielder or a decent left back, then he may be worth a look. If not, forget it.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is a winger from Southampton that is being scouted by Liverpool, Arsenal, Fulham, Stoke to name just 4. There is little chance he will leave for any of them unless a substantial bid comes in. So there is no chance he will go to Bristol city(3)(6)

Fulham have offered Millwall £3m for star striker Steve Morison, with Leicester also in the hunt. If they do sell him, the money will be used to sign another striker.(9)(5)

To the person asking about Borja Valero-

He is on loan at Villareal from WBA with an agreed price of around 5mil Euros, for either tax reasons or because apparently all loan deals going into spain must have a agreed buying price at the end. Dont know if either are true, knowing our chairman its more likely to be about tax though.

A deal was agreed between WBA and Real Mallorca last season but because of their financial trouble it couldnt go through.

I also doubt Valero will come back to england because he never settled over here last time and it was the main reason he wanted to go back to spain.(5)(2)

Listen, this is no disrespect to Spurs, I hope they win the Champions League, I should have said why on earth would DB want to come to the UK and play on the winter pitches and risk injury especially as he is getting on now (No Disrespect DB if you are reading) and a serious injury will finish him off which will not go down to well with the 2012 Olympics if we are going to compete in the football tournament where DB would play a major role as a player or coach for team GB(2)(5)

A striker is also badly needed, Torres has always been the target but with Liverpool unlikely to sell, Chelsea are considering bids for Suarez of Ajax or a surprise bid for Barcelona out of favour forward Ibrahimovich who is on loan at AC Milan.

Re: Bristol Rovers

The club have enough money/ cash-flow at the moment, but Nick Higgs has inferred that a white knight buyer has to come in during the summer.

Hoskins is wanted by Cardiff, Swansea, Forest and Doncaster and will be sold. Cheltenham striker Wes Thomas is wanted by Rovers, and a good offer will see him move down the M5 to the Memorial Stadium.

Cheltenham will then go for ex-Portsmouth duo Ryan Gazet Du Chattelier and Paris Cowan-Hall. Cowan-Hall is not in Ian Barraclough's plans at Sc thorpe, so a move away to Gloucestershire (and nearer to his family in Hampshire) would be welcomed by him.

I know that there is a party interested in buying out Rovers, but they are also monitoring events down at Plymouth Argyle. They were turned away by Messrs. Gardner and Todd, but hope to speak with Peter Ridsdale about getting involved with the Home Park outfit. If they are unable to agree terms there, they will go for a 100% buyout at the Memorial Stadium.
----------
To the person who posted this, who accurate is the information?

Plus, do you know who is likely to be appointed as the new manager mate?

--------------------------------------------------

Hi there,

The information given is 100% fact. No b/ s.

The interested party approached former owner Geoff Dunford about buying the club. However, fellow directors were not happy with this person's plan to build a new stadium in the middle of the railway diamond outside Bristol Parkway station.

There would have been a walkway from Parkway station and access roads built in from Filton on the south side and Bradley Stoke to the north.

However, a deal could not be reached and so the buyer walked away. Whether or not the buyer returns to the table, nobody knows. I believe that there is still an interest but this person also has eyes on Plymouth as well.

Whatever happens, I am certain that long-term the future of Bristol Rovers will be fine. I can see them getting a new stadium before City anyway!

As for manager - Dean Holdsworth is the favourite but Swindon also want him if they sack Danny Wilson. Funnily enough, Danny Wilson has been spoken about as a candidate here and our ex manager a candidate for the Swindon manager's hot-seat! Martin Allen has been mentioned but I think he's more likely to be the full-time boss at Barnet.

Hope that answers your questions mate, and HNY!(7)(11)

Im a Leeds Fan and wondering where Kris Commons is going. Hope he comes to Leeds he ripped our defence apart well that was with Fede Bessone and Neil Collins.

Cheers

MOT.
-----------------------------------

Heard Kris Commons will be playing in Celtic's green and white hoops as Lennon is a huge admirerer of the young Scot. Not sure about a price, heard it could be free if he sees his contract out until the end of the season but I'm unsure about how long he has left on said contract.

however, although most will forgive our fallen son some won't! regardless of what he does on the field

I for one would love to see him in a Leeds shirt again

To the guy who said Lambert, Chamberlian and Lallana all expected to leave despite singing new contracts in the summer. .Well for your info or FACTS. Lambert has two years left on his contract, Lallana has only 6 months left and it was only Chamberlian who singed up in the summer.
It has just been announced that Lallana is in negotiations about signing A NEW CONTRACT.
Does anyone realise this is not the Southampton of old, we are the 5th richest club in all the leagues and our manager has been told he has a substantial budget to go on a win the league so we certainly don't need the money.
1.5 million has been bid for a certain striker from Swindon. .(16)(13)

"Notts forest fans face it bill davies is coming back to preston to finish what he started."

For one how are Preston going to afford Billy. Forest will want big compensation and Preston have no money. And Billy Davies has stated that he wants to guide forest to the premier league. And he will be given money to spend at forest and Preston have no money to give him. Preston are in a relagation battle and Forest are challenging for promotion.(33)(15)

Things are not looking good for Portsmouth. Liam Lawrence is set to leave, days after signing. There is interest from West Ham and Bolton, for around £4 million.
Brown and Hughes contract talks are not getting anywhere, with Portsmouth prepared to cut their losses and sell in January. Matt Ritchie is going to join Swindon for around £200,000, and Marlon Pack is also set to leave. Nugent and Utaka are also likely to be put up for sale by the owner, with cheap replacements likely. Nugent could go to Fulham or blackpool, with Utaka heading to France.

I have close contacts to Bristol City, and for the people speculating Maynard leaving is a load of s t!he is still about 2-3weeks away from returning to the first team no one would even consider making a move!
City are open to offers for the following:
Stephen Henderson - Yeovil (Season Loan)
Gavin Williams - Yeovil (Season Loan)
Ivan Sproule - Attracting interest from Hibs and Yeovil
Nicky Hunt - Handful of league one clubs interested including Huddersfield and Colchester
Marlon Jackson - Season Loan
Joe Edwards - Cheltenham (1 Month Loan)
John Akinde - Season Loan with view to Perm deal in summer, Cheltenham rumoured to be interested
David Clarkson - Back to SPL with Hearts, Motherwell and Hibs rumoured for around 1 million
James Wilson - (1 Month Loan)
Danny Ball - (1 Month Loan)
Joe Lennox - (1 Month Loan)
Although it is unlikely Edwards, Wilson, Ball and Lennox will go out on loan as they have not been performing in Reserves
Tom Williams - Contract expires end of Jan 2011 and wil leave the club

Players In:
Well first to the people speculating Rose and Caulker going else where is wide of the mark they are with us till end of season and we have an option to buy Danny Rose at the end of the loan but NOT with caulker :(
Millen has said in recent weeks he wants a Left back as cover for McAllister and a creative midfielder to replace Hartley, the club are keeping tight on names and rumours and its the way it should be but the bookies favourites are Templeton and Buzasky for midfield, although City have already agreed to sign a left back the deal cannot go through for certain reasons at the moment!
And depending on situation and money as Lansdown is holding back this window Millen is looking at a third player of which is unknown!(14)(13)

Meanwhile NFFC have already looking to strengthen during the transfer window (Tudgay and the USA international Findley) with the help of our director and the vast amour of cash he is willing to pump into the club.

You all think that Tudgay is amazing now that he has scored 3 goals in 3 games, but wait a couple of seasons until he peaks with 10 goals in one season. Gradually he scores less and less until this season at SWFC he plays 19 games, scores 3 goals and 2 of those are penalties.

RE.03 Jan 2011 00:14:38
The Billy Davies rumour is true he won't be named tomorrow cuz both teams have games. BD has been in talks with both boards since Friday. Forest fans fear the worst cuz there are rumours that some players will hand in transfer requests he will go back to forest for the following players mcgoldrick I don't think it will be cash so it could straight swap with ssl he also wants McKenna back to lead the team and midfield other forest players will go elsewhere as for other pne targets Adam le fondre isn't sure pne are the right club same with Leon best who was rumoured to come on loan and expect him to shuffle the defence eddie Nolan expected to come back straight into callums posision. Paul Hayes will be persuaded to stay but looks like a move back closer to his family is on the cards two south Americans will be joining also.

---------------

I was always under the impression that PNE fans hated Billy Davies, so why are they so keen on having him back all of a sudden? Why would he even be interested?

- NFFC are in a safe position and with our two games in hand are very likely to move into the playlets very soon. Meanwhile PNE are 6 points from safety and nailed on for relegation

- A few PNE fans claim BD has unfinished business with the club. Meanwhile he HIMSELF has stated he has unfinished business in the Premier League . . now with which club would he be more likely to return to the Prem with? ?

- PNE struggle to bring in more than 10/ 11,000 per game in a stadium capable of holding 23,000! Their game against Barnsley was attended by under 9,000 'fans' whilst the same fixture at The City Ground was seen by over 22,000. This leads me on to . . .

- . . why PNE are broke. No fans going to the games coupled with a board lacking cash. Meanwhile NFFC have already looking to strengthen during the transfer window (Tudgay and the USA international Findley) with the help of our director and the vast amour of cash he is willing to pump into the club.

- Despite all the assumptions about BDs relationship with the board, he has stated that he will never resign. The club are also unlikely to let him go for nothing so PNE would have to pay some hefty compensation as I believe there are at least 18months remaining on his contract.

Forest to make the play offs at least this season, maybe even automatic if we others keep slipping up whilst we make the most of our games in hand. As stated before we already have brought two players in, at a time when we are famously inactive! Expect further signs in the shape of

Parr - 500k - Aalesund
Bertrand - loan extension - Chelsea
Westwood - 100k - Crewe
Woolford - 300k - Scunhorpe
Pratley - 750k > 1mill - Swansea
Hammill - 1mill cheeky bid - Barnsley(16)(26)

Also Tudur Jones - Swansea 400k


And Southampton are not an ambitious club? ?
The aim is to be in the premier league in 3 years. And being the 5th richest club in the coutry it WILL happen.
And for 600K. Seriously what the fx are smoking. Why would Saints sell him for 600k add a zero on the end and we may think about it. Also we will have a bit of compensation added on to that(14)(33)
