Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[adrenachrome]

Please tell me the SSNHQOfficial twitter account is a fake one?

Reporting that we have made a bid for Leigh Griffiths, which would be well,..... underwhelming to say the bloody least!

It looks fake, it's only got 87 followers.

Yes. They've followed it with:

Who's Leigh Griffiths ?

[Clampy]

Bearing in mind it uses the Sky Sports logo and images of presenters, i'm surprised it hasn't been taken down although maybe with only 87 followers it's hardly worth the hassle.

A little bloke with a strange forhead

That's him. Was on trial at West Brom under Mowbray as well.

This is a sign of how low we have sunk.

A rubbish spoof account on the ever reliable Twitter has made up a rumour we've made a bid for a footballer I've never heard of from a team in Scotland for a silly amount of money.

Sort it out Villa.

he also had a Tonev moment didn't he for some racially offensive comments posted on Twatter? Anyway he's an ugly cnut so its a no, even though its not real.

Leigh Griffiths is a nutter.

He got in trouble for Tweeting that somebody should "go back to their own country" and, having apologised and been disciplined, he was then caught singing a song about a Hearts player being a refugee.

I wouldn't want such racist UKIPpery at Villa Park but, as the rumour seems to have originated from an internet fantasist, I'm not too worried.

It's a fake account. It's bollocks. Move on.

Which sad fuck nugget has the time to run a fake SSN Twitter account? The next extinction event can't happen quick enough

[ozzjim]

Considering the TV money and what we have bought back in, surely would could find a deal with QPR and just get Austin to score us some goals up top? Maybe even send Kozak and Gardner the other way for the season on loan as part of it.

James Collins available from wet spam apparently. Worth it for the experience?

 

No crap player just like Baker but with experience....very bad experience!
