Wake up people we're not signing anyone of any quality, you can go to bed early. We're showing the least ambition is the League, The moneys gone, The Trust have surely pulled the biggest wind up ever, We'll give you 3 million in public then take away 10 million behind closed doors.

Just thinking the same thing

Anyone for Asset striping? Manager, right-winger and goalkeeper

Come on Rovers, get Kightly. Pull your thumbs out of your arses.

Oooh this Berbatov thing sounds interesting. I think Spuds wil have a change of heart, Berbatov gets miffed and starts legal action to walk out on his contract. Therefore we get Bosman X100.

Or maybe BosmanATOV :lol:

<_< I bet you weren't saying that in January when we didn't sign anybody on the last day

No you're right but Hughes had said we would'nt and he was happy enough with the squad. I'm not sure wether Ince is happy with the squad or not but a right winger was the top priority and I just can't see the effort being made.

You'd like to think the Berbatov situ would blow up spectacularly, but I guess it comes down to Scudamore and co. doing their jobs.....what are the chances of UEFA / FIFA stepping in nicko?

Remember how City and Pompey were allowed another couple of days to re-work the Benjani deal in January? If Utd and Spurs want to drag this on, I'm sure it will. I think City are just throwing their name around in order to raise their profile.

As fror Rovers, would be very disappointed if we didn't bring in a right winger of some quality. If we rely on Emerton and / or Reid then we're in trouble.

Put it this way Stroke Boy will go pink when he realises this won't be resolved by midnight, while the other Sky boys will be waffling on until midnight in the rain.

But the fun has only just begun on this one.

who or what is Stroke boy, please someone explain this for me!!

thanks

At least if Villa aren't going to get a striker and blow a good summers work, then at least I can laugh if United don't get their main man.

On what basis do you make this assumption?

Paul has said he WANTS to sign some players. Just like Hughes always used to say.

The only reason you could assume this is due to some deep seated psychological distrust of Paul Ince, because he has done nothing to indicate he is not making effort.

The amount of staff he has had to replace as well as replacing a great goalkeeper would indicate to me (and any other sane individual) that he is making A LOT of effort.

If Rovers are looking to bring someone in (though it doesn't look like they are obviously) then I am very thankful that they are keping it quiet. With everything else going on, going public about prospects right now is simply asking someone else to come in and scupper the deal. I believe Ince (and JW) must feel we need a winger but if noone better than Reid, Emerton, Villanueva, etc. is interested then there's nothing can be done. Personally though I feel Pennant is better than what we currently have and is clearly interested - not a dream signing but the general consensus (bar a few exceptions) seems to be that a winger is essential and if he is the best available he's better than nothing.

Can Berbatov buy out his contract?

This legislation could allow a raft of top Premiership names to follow suit. Referred to as the "protected period", if a player's contract was signed prior to reaching the age of 28 then, provided he has completed three entire seasons or three entire years, he is permitted to end the deal with 15 days' notice. If the contract was signed after his 28th birthday, only two seasons or years must be served. "The protected period refers to any players regardless of their age," said a Fifa spokesman, responding to a misconception within the game that the rule is applicable only to players aged 28 and over.

So No not for another 9 months he signed May 06

That is a very intelligent piece of reasoning.

Man U hijacked him because they thought they could. Fergie played the part of Robert de Niro and was the taxi driver.

However Spurs are going pure mad mental...

Seriously, this could be the biggest row ever.

Trying to confirm something right now. But this one might run and run.

And after the Benjani fiasco, the Premier League may be under pressure to make sure the deadline isn't really the deadline.

Midnight, September 2 anyone?

Who wants to tell Stroke Boy?
