No-one prepared to do a summary like in the last window? Its hard keeping track of whats going on without the search/filter function

Good job steerig clear of Lee Keun Ho- seen him play twice this year. He has the same problem as every Koran striker, he cant finish. And to say he cant finish in the K league where they back off and let you play means he wouldnt get a sniff in the premiership.

Brief Summary

We have signed Jackson Mann a 15 year old from Cambridge who will stay there until the end of the season and will pay a small fee in compensation even though we are not required to, a sign of our professionalism.

We have also signed Nick Blackman from Macclesfield, a 19 year old midfielder/striker who has struggled to break into their team. The deal was at least partly done during Ince's time here although it can't be confirmed who had final say over it.

Other than that we are 'close' to signing someone according to reports, its unlikely they meant any of the above two. Strongest rumours point to Chrichten (Sp??) or whatever his name was from AS Nancy or Steve Finnan.

No news really other than that.

Gael Givet in.

Mask of Zoro too.

Givet's landed then? So what's the deal with him at the moment, having a look before we agree to a loan or has the loan been done?

Thought Zoro was already here on trial? Has anything else happened.

Givet is in and will have his medical...more details of the deal at 11pm.

Zoro is in and trained today...too early to say how he looks.

I think I have missed something. I thought Zoro was having a weeks trial with West Spam first?

So Givet isn't having a trial, only Zoro is?

So many trialists nowadays, just goes to show some clubs have to be very very careful on who they spend their money on. Unlike City, you don't even need a medical and they'll sign ya :P

Cheers. Although I thought I saw something on SSN site about him having a trial at the Spammers. And of course as they never make anything up I assumed it to be true....

Bring on the 15yr olds!

I tend to wait till their 16 at least.

I had too, sorry.

The cambridge scholars have impressed in the youth cup, as their chairman pointed out they recieve no funding for it so start 250K behind the rest, FA also pays all scholars £55.00 per week. Impressive performance given their short history.

We'll keep an eye out for his name.

For all we know, this guy might be the next Jonny Stead. Remember him? Don't remember Hughes being slagged off for signing him though.

Is that because he didn't sign him?

Foreign Striker....... Podolski????

Someone on the official board, came up with a cracker, Bayern want RSC back, we get Podolski + 7m :o:lol:

In my dreams, please don't let me wake up until he has signed.

I wonder sometimes with Big Sam, he has a habit of signing international 'footballing' centre halves and turning them into decent midfielders!!!

Well Campo did a job there for years <_<

Nicko,

Is Givet a good passer of the ball? I suspect so being French!!

Lol it was probably the same guy that was on the comments section in Paper Talk from skysports.com, either that or it's where he got it from.

As If!!!

There is only one thing the French are good at... "retreat, retreat!!!"
