I hope we get the Ireland of 2 seasons ago and not the one I saw (when played) last season.

Don't want Keane, he is too old and would cost us about 20mil over 3 years with nothing in return.

I don't think we should sell Curtis, when playing with Laursen he showed he had the potential to be top class.

If MON can settle his differences with NRC and Young we should keep them too.  NRC always impresses in a 5 man midfield and he always works really hard when he plays.  Young is a  quality footballer but I don't think mentally he was quite right last season.

SSN stated that Bolton are close to getting Reo-Coker for 1million. This is crazy. We need a fit and fully functioning  NRC  in our squad and judging by his performance last night  he is worth far more than that.


Quite right.  £1m is laughable, I know he's out of contract next year but he'll be worth a lot more than that to us over the coming season.

what??? that would be insane.  I realise he only has 1 year left on his deal but we might as well keep him if that is all we would get.

If true, that would be an absolutely terrible bit of business.

True, In fact Downing looked £1 million last night and NRC had a great game.....    Selling him for that price would piss me off then when we bought eskey ....   well maybe the same....         especially If we keep Sidwell instead

Laughable if true. Over the course of this season he will be worth more than that to us. I thought he was absolutely terrific for us last night.

Sorry if mentioned but on the OS MON says Shorey is having a medical at WBA.


Hopefully that means he isn't going to Celtic and we're not getting McGeady.  Hang out the bunting!


Good riddance to the little runt, his display at Fulham has done as much as anything to put me off PL football.

Fine, as long as we have a replacement lined up. Otherwise we will be going into a long campaign with 1 recognised left back. I suppose we've seen similar before though.

And if he sells Reo Coker for £1m rather than offering a new contract he wants bloody shooting.

Don't forget Luke is still around and oh yes we might find some use  for Downing by switching him to LB!!

The NRC thing, although I hope it's not true, might be £1million after subsidising his wages.

There is no way Blackburn would pay him half the £2.3million a season he's on here.

Still seems on the low side and I'd rather keep him tbh.

Would far rather take £1m for sidwell than lose nige for that amount.

What happened to coopers injury? Was he banned for life?

If davies is injured we might not be able to sell him now but should stll go for keane and bentley with the milner cash - Ireland keane and bentley would give us much more attacking options.
