[Archived] possible transfer targets summer 2013

[John]

Wow, pretty much the majority of Villa fans hate his guts and can't wait until he leaves.

[K-Hod]

Probably best not assuming he's guff until we see him in the flesh....

[neophox]

Anyone know if Bannan is in the stands watching the game?

[Neal]

Yeah no kidding Villa fans don't really like him, most seem very happy he is going, one of the reasons I am not so positive is the comments I am getting, they blame him allot for their disaster period, he started brilliant then when the going got tough just went missing, didn't seem to put the effort in and seemingly spent more time passing to the opposition than his team mates.

I'm sure they had similar opinions about Maloney, but found the right club and right management. Let's hope this is the case.

[Salgado Is A Hero]

Chatted to a Villa relative about Bannan......seems there's a general consensus.

(Paraphrasing) "Tries the hollywood pass too much like Gerrard but is nowhere near as good as him at it. Is good on the ball and can pass but loses it too often. Likes the beers as well."

[Neal]

Just asked Flanagan about this, here is his response...

"Not seen him yet, good chance will happen but Rovers have been a little cautious over it. Might be some negotiating going"

I then said they are perhaps cautious at not being pipped or maybe about his attitude, also mentioned they're talking about a £750,000 bid accepted. Flanagan said...

Bid has been accepted, no confirmation on price but people I've spoken to expect Villa might let him go for less than that.

He was good at right for Sunderland but something happend under O´Neill.

Under some managers he has been brilliant without a doubt, get the feeling he needs to feel special though and be given some freedom (will need a good work horse with him.. don't think its a coincidence with Downing he was brilliant but without awful in the eyes of villa fans).

[pick32]

What does it matter, you won't like him anyway.

Can you refresh me memory on a few of em, no names springing to mind.

Lewandowski, Papis cisse, Antonio Valencia and Alex Witsel are just a few

[rovers11]

Apparently there will be some rovers news tonight according to Greg Coar`s twitter page.

[Stuart]

Greg Coar is tweeting about a transfer?

[rovers11]

Greg Coar is tweeting about a transfer?

Seems so, yes. We'll find out shortly.

Think it is a genuine account as Kevin Gallagher has recommended following him.

[RockinRover]

How can we tune in to Radio Rovers? Isn't it down?

[rovers11]

Pretty sure he just means keep an eye on the rovers website rather than listen to radio rovers.

[RockinRover]

Ah, I was fooled by the words tune in.

[RussP]

Seems so, yes. We'll find out shortly.

Think it is a genuine account as Kevin Gallagher has recommended following him.

And now Gally has said that Jordan Rhodes has joined Twitter. A bit odd.

[Stuart]

Pretty sure he just means keep an eye on the rovers website rather than listen to radio rovers.

Coar pre-tweet tweeting...

Venkys in town...

Mystery folks allegedly in the expensive seats... (from post in Prestige match thread)

Sale of the club?

Ha ha Stuart I thought I was the only one dreaming of this, or, "Greg Coar - My Story"

[Tom]

It's not Greg its a fake I've confirmed it

[Stuart]

How?

[Blue Cabbage]

God damn it, I always believe the wrong rumours

[RussP]

Rumours that talks with Bannan have broken down. Too many rumours flying around....this, Coar announcement (fake, no surprise) & Rhodes on Twitter (certain that's fake too).

[Tom]

How?

I asked the man himself
