It's claimed that Aston Villa and boss Steve Bruce – who managed Jake Livermore at Hull – would have been keen if they had won promotion, but staying in the Championship means they have been ruled out of the race.

Looks like Hodgson will take him instead. I'm glad don't rate him at all.
That’s the first piece of news since Saturday that has cheered me up.

Forest rumored to be in talks for 2 of Benficas brightest prospects, following the Wolves route. Not good if true.

If Dr Tony could just find that 50 pence piece from down the back of the sofa, we are in.

Can’t really see us signing anyone until a few have gone out to be honest.

well i've never heard of him, but if someone wants to link us with a 5m player, maybe things aren't as bad as we thought. *clutches straws*

EH?

in April 2015, McGinn was "speared" by St Mirren club captain Steven Thompson during a training session prank gone wrong. The resulting injury meant that McGinn missed the remainder of the season, and in turn took legal action against the club.[8]

I watched a couple of youtube vids of him and the main thing I noticed is just how bad Scottish football is these days. And he didn't strike me as anything overly special.

Oh great, that usually means we'll pay even more for him then PWS!! Watch Bruce blow the whole budget on him.
