Legion returns from the bar carrying seven pints of Old Bee Strangler's Stout. Abv 5.4. Just a hint of honey. Very nice.

Legion: Four four two?

Now you're stretching the bounds of reality. Surely at this point there'd be a trip, a stagger and beer all over the floor.

This is Leeg after all !!

Well 2 weeks till the season starts and we haven't signed or sold a single player- no money has been raised from transfers and our star player wants to leave the club-I'm sure none of us expected this 4 yrs ago when the future looked so bright.

As for McGeady, that's quite interesting. Could be that our interest is all about if Milner leaves, at which point he is replaced by Ireland and either Ash or Downing moving to the centre, with McGeady filling their spot on the wing.

For various reasons, I think next year's plan will be 4-4-1-1.  I think he's earmarked Keane to play behind Gabby, with Ash as the alternative so we can keep the formation the same even if Keane is out for any reason.  So, another winger makes sense, firstly to give some competition, and also to be there if Ash is playing off the striker.  Playing that way also requires an attacking central midfielder and although I think Milner could be that man, insisting Ireland is part of any deal for him fits into things aswell, plus Ireland could also play off the striker in that formation.

Where would that leave Carew?

Hughes must also decide whether to finalise a £2m deal for Aston Villa midfielder Steve Sidwell which has been on the back burner for several weeks as Fulham sought a replacement for Roy Hodgson.

Sidwell is no replacement for Hodgson.[/quote]

Carew's cover/competition for Gabby, and also very effective off the bench where he'd be a very different option if we're struggling - the near mythical 'plan b'.  Plus I could see him starting a lot of Euro/Cup games.  I'm also hopeful we'll see more rotation this year, so I'd like to think he'd get a fair few games.

However Hodgson replacing Sidwell would improve our midfield.

Panic on the streets of London
Panic on the streets of Birmingham
I wonder to myself
Could we ever sell Sidwell ?

Transfer windows that bring you down
I wonder to myself
Hopes may rise for the Gnasher
Happy Clappers, you're not safe here
So you run down
Talk like we're Huddersfield Town

But there's Panic on the streets of Carlisle
Transfer windows/Derrick Bird you decide
I wonder to myself

Sell our best players
Sack the blessed Martin
Because the football that we constantly play
Means I'd rather spend time with the wife
Sack the blessed Martin
Because the football that we constantly play

On the transfer windows that bring you down
Garry Cook you're a clown

Ban The Window Ban The Window Ban The Window
Ban The Win- dow Ban The Window.

Absolute genius !
