Anybody remember Stanley Unwin?

Show some respect. It's Professor Stanley Unwin. The inventor of Unwinese. Wordy gobbledy.

He fought with the lions in Lesotho, swerved snakes in Sumatra.

All to bring us back some tasty morsels of transfer tat.

Godspeed, footyskills.

to be honest it brightens my day; the trick is  to enter into the spirit of it, which is a more purple shade of haze

Good point.  I'm just surprised he hasn't linked us with Kenywne Jones and Joey Barton yet. oh Karl Henry's on a free transfer too.  He's slow off the mark really.

I wouldn't mind Podolski in a Villa shirt next season. He's not wanted by Arsenal and he would be a massive improvement on Andi or Gabby. Probably couldn't afford his wage demands though.

Podolski would be good. Can't see it somehow though

Former Tottenham Hotspur and Swindon midfielder Massimo Luongo has explained why he has joined QPR and not a team like Aston Villa .

Tim Sherwood has been to watch the young midfielder in action this season and he was on the transfer target list of the new Villa boss, along with his teammate Ben Gladwin.

Luongo explained his decision to join Rangers, stating: "Joining QPR is probably my best chance to play regularly, assuming that I impress and give them a reason to pick me,” the midfielder said.

“With the players and resources they have at West Brom and Villa, they could probably afford to buy a bigger squad and maybe opportunities may have been limited.”

Sherwood agrees with the decision of the player he knows through working with him at Spurs, he said: "It’s not the right time for us to do the deal, I think it is a good move for him and it will give them the opportunity to play regularly."

In other words he doesn't have the confidence in his ability to think he can nail down a spot.

Are QPR still throwing big money about, good chance they offered much higher wage than we would

Isn't it about time those fuckers paid their £45m pound fine instead of going to court because they knowingly broke the rules but don't give a shit. Rio needed his £80k a week. Clown club.

Or maybe like Okore he's thinking of his long term career and wants to be playing as much as possible?

Okore would have to oust Terry or Cahill. We have Westwood who came from the same division and A N other. Hardly the same.  I appreciate it's a big step up though.

To be fair to Luongo he went to Swindon when Spurs wanted to keep him on, so if its going to teams where he'll play every week hes been pretty consistent.

Fair point, he was clever enough to not want to stay in Tottenhams graveyard of midfielders.
