[gervilla]

Ya. If he was a couple of years younger I'd snap him up.

[ozzjim]

We registered a full 25, so unless given special dispensation it is not going to change. We didn't strictly need to register those under 21 but think we did.

Does Warnock being out on loan make a difference and free up his registration place?

[PeterWithe]

All the Twitter ITK BSers seem to be sure that we're in talks with a free agent CB.

We'll see..

The man is John Mensah.

The fella who was at Portsmouth a few years ago?

[ozzjim]

I don't think so, unless it is on a long term deal but thought was only a 3 month thing?

Slumberland.

I would have thought Bolton would have to have added him to their squad until January.

[PaulTheVillan]

Shouldn't have registered Petrov.

[ozzjim]

Shouldn't have registered Petrov.

Or Hutton and Warnock.

Not sure on Holahoon, I'm still convinced if we do sign someone from Norwich it will be Pilkington.

[pauliewalnuts]

I think Hoolahan is a very good, underrated player.

I don't think Norwich are going to want to sell us any players for a while, though.

I'm not sure he's very inconsistent according to my Norwich supporting mate.

[Shrek]

The squad registration is only till January then we have to pick another.

[Clampy]

Is that right that Lambert was at the Hawthorns last night? If so, i wonder who he was watching?
