I would certainly give credence to the words of an employee of Forest Echo News.

Terry deal is supposed to be very close.

AVFC Transfer medical bloke. Nothing booked yet medical wise but he says it's close.

He's normally right on the money.

Yep, I think he's been spot on everyone.

As he is lightening quick it makes me happy. Oh no. He is not. Just "mildly" racist, self absorbed and an utter cock socket. Brilliant signing Bruce.

Anyhow, the way it looks we need a keeper, winger, Jedinak cover and a quick, tricky forward before the window closes. And possibly a left back cover/ competition for Taylor.

Not massively overjoyed but can't be worse than Baker and experience and winning mentality could help some of the younger players.

If true, welcome JT.

I am probably just clutching at straws but I think the AVFC transfers guy tweeted that a while ago (Wednesday maybe?) so I don't think anything has changed.

What is worrying is earlier Wyness 'liked' a tweet from a journalist that suggested that we are hopeful of completing it this week... So I imagine we must be pretty confident. I am clinging to the hope that Terry is just using us to attract better offers from elsewhere, but no other club seems to want to bite at the moment. I can't understand why.........

Watching the Confederation Cup New Zealand had a couple of decent looking relatively youngsters, Thomas and Rojas.  Both creative forward looking midfielders with pace.
Failing that we might consider a bid for Sonny Bill Williams to add some strength, he seems pretty adaptable.
In fact anyone but Whelan.

Rojas isn't that great a player. He has played in Germany and didn't impress over there, then came back to the A League to play for Melbourne. He's 25 by the way.

Ryan Thomas is only 22 and currently playing in the Dutch League. He would certainly be the more promising player.

Bournemouth are going to spend 20m on a 22 year old Chelsea defender with barely any games to his name. Fuck me

If that's the lad who looks like Gullit, he played the first half of the season for them and the previous one for Watford. He's very, very good.
