I don't want Lambert wasting money if he has only got a little to spend. Get the shape right and play Gabby and Wiemann centrally. Midfield is where we struggle.

Who's getting Lukaka this season on loan?

Jose is on the cusp of meeting himself coming back (disappearing up his own arse) and so he could could well loan the mercurial Belgian to himself.

Next one in for Villa? Must be little Wes I reckon.  Cheap and cheerful just the way Randy likes it!

We definitely need a striker. Only kozak looks like scoring but he's injured and slow anyway

We need a reasonably pacey guy who can score

I know people will laugh but I'd be looking at fraizer Campbell

Your right we do need a striker, as well as a quality left back and a couple of midfielders. Don't hold much hope though that we will be signing anyone half decent though.

We are not only looking in poundland we are checking the bins too. I am not expecting much we were told to lower our expectations.

Here's some ITK that I probably don't even believe myself, just for discussion like.

Lescott turned us down, Milner has been approached, Barry considering offer of 60k a week, Benteke will be back by September, no new contract for Gabby, Keane is coming, we don't want Sidwell, Given to be second keeper, Steer to go out on loan, we are breaking even and have money to spend but are still working to a budget.

Supposedly from PF but via somebody else. Should I join TBAR?

Fair play, Percy, that's some going!

It beats my ITK anyway: when visiting family at Easter, my youngest brother told me that he plays for the same team as Nathan Baker's best mate, who refers to Baker as the 'Show Pony'. With mates like that, eh...

Not until you have had the info confirmed by two sources. And have bought some biscuits.

And when it's proved you were wrong, you'll post a long winded statement telling us that you'll 'fall on your sword',  making an absolute arse of yourself in the process.

One source and a breakfast bar. I'll have to stay here.

So, Barry considering and Milner approached. If they both say "yes", can we have the pair, or will it be decided on penalties? And, cos I can't be arsed to keep up with such things, how long's Gabby got left? Finally year, I presume?
