You've "Kept out of this".... have a word with yourself.

You're like a dog with a bone regarding Chaddy & Nixon.

You remind me of one of those blokes who always kicks off trouble then blends into the background when the resultant punch-up kicks off and leaves the pub without a mark on him.

He's a sly one all right.

[bob fleming]

Totally off topic but are you going to watch Jimbob at Darwen Library Theatre later in the year Bob?

I had no idea he was playing! (They like to keep things quiet there (mwhahahaha etc)). Yeah, be rude not to. I'll look into it.

[Stuart]

C'mon then mods. Are you going to allow all that?

These two, in particular, only ever post in response to me and with personal abuse with no other contribution.

Gav? Bob? K-Hod? Mellison?

[Speedie Dived]

In the middle of all this point scoring and bickering klc makes a very good point.

We moan year on year that the club leaves its business until the very last minute, but it seems like Coyle is bucking that trend and getting his targets in early, all credit to him for that.

Think that's out of necessity Gav as we have 15 first team pros. This is no master plan.

Gav, I can say that Owen Coyle is working very hard on transfers and talking to different clubs about possible loans. Look at Hull where Steve Bruce future is still very unclear. no plans have been make there. or Southampton where they still haven't appointed a new manager yet

You cannot seriously be looking down on Hull and Southampton. We are a joke compared to both of them. A Sunday league club.

If you're referring to me Stu you're way off the mark. I only get riled with you when you get on your Chaddy/Nixon obsession.

If you read last nights posts you'll see I was trying my best to get Abbey's thoughts on transfers as we're in the Transfer Thread but he took his ball home and said he didn't want to play.

Re: transfers I'm happy to see that, for once, we appear to be being pro-active and trying to get the majority of our work done early.

Ps..where was the 'abuse' I directed at you in my last post. I'm genuinely interested as all I felt I did was make an analogy to shine a light on how I saw your behaviour.

Now, if I'd said 'Up Yours' to you that would be a different thing but we don't talk like that round here do we?

Frankly this thread has been about anything but transfers for page after page and lots of people are culpable( myself included). It does seem bizarre though that someone regularly on this thread says they couldn't give a stuff who we sign.Seriously, how is that ever going to keep the thread on track - if you're not interested why comment?

Mods, I don't envy your job one bit....

Its much easier to target players when you've no budget and just wages, still Bowyer wasn't able to bring his in early, so credit to Coyle anyway.

My main concern is his inability to make them into anything other than relegation fodder, but time will tell.

We gave you all some solid advice with the thread and various posts on the subject. You shouldn't all need telling not to argue and argue so much about Nixon. Never mind getting so stressed about him. He's a goon, granted, but he's well in with Coyle so most info will likely emanate from him. Scroll right by posts that annoy you, if those posters aren't on ignore, Simple. It's Father's Day after all, surely there are better things to be doing than arguing on here.

Missed a good Bowyer debate :-). Made more money for this club than most.

End of the day you can bring them in early or late, it's about how good they are. Coyle won't be here at the end of the year anyway.

[Mike E]

I'm fed up of this @#/?. It's Father's Day and I'll be spending it with the best man in my life.

If you guys have nothing better to do than act like whiny little bitches, then I can only pity you.

Just to be clear: Stuart, chaddy, DGS, the rest of you I can't be bothered naming, I mean you lot.

This last point isn't fair, but I'm not feeling very fair today, especially after the posts above. Stuart, rather than challenging us mods to 'c'mon then', you should consider your own behaviour. You are one of the biggest @#/? stirrers on here when it comes to any mention of Nixon.

No it's, not personal. But even you must admit that you can dish out all manner of sly digs at chaddy but you cry foul when someone calls you out on it.

Yes I DO condone chaddy posting Nixon rumours because IT'S THE SODDING TRANSFER THREAD THREAD, YOU MELT!!!

I'm having some time off, I'm @#/? off with the lot of you.

Queue.

It was a play on words Mani. Cue as in snooker. Stephen Hendry. Geddit?

Firstly thank you for removing their personal insults.

Second, Is he not being given too much credit because he is 'close to Coyle'? He didn't break the Stokes signing and instead we've just had weeks of speculation and cryptic tweets.

If somebody is going to post everything he says, and run other non-Nixon links by him, it should be open to criticism.

He did indeed and deserves credit, wasn't as bad as some would have us believe.

On Coyle, agreed.

Appalling from a mod.

Mike, your issue with me is clearly very much a personal one and you can't separate this from your role.

However, I can empathise and its exactly why I wouldn't be a mod for all the money in the world - and why nobody would want me to.

[Gav]

C'mon then mods. Are you going to allow all that?

Sorry Stuart just for the record I'm not a mod, never have been mate.

Worth a cheeky loan bid?

Not really.

You moan about me posting transfer news/updates from Nixon but other posters like Gav and Mani like me doing this. So what the problem/issues with me doing this?

I posted the transfers links/posts in the correct threads.

I do posts other links/news from other sources like Paul Wheelock/LT, Daily Mail, Daily Miiror/Sunday People.

Blimey that didn't take long!!!

[Hasta]

Just so I am clear, if Alan Nixon is the only journalist who's written anything about our possible ins and outs, can we post it? I guess the Mail article is OK on the West Ham fullback? Is there a list of journalists we're not allowed to discuss?

I think we need some concise guidance on what's allowed here. Because it's getting a little confusing.

We can post any rumours. Likewise we can also criticise / doubt the source of the rumours.

The problem with Nixon is that, so far, he missed our only confirmed incoming despite having about 10 guesses since Coyle arrived.

If Hendrie (or hendry) happens that will be a second transfer someone else broke.

He's like one of them cheap fraudulent pub psychics that get all the girls at work excited with their 'mystical powers' when he's really a clever 'guesser' .

It's tabloid stories, it all should be taken with a pinch of salt, always has and always will. Nobody else is speculating on us anymore either, bar Nixon! Not worth the column inches. It's frustrating, but posters seem intent on taking that out on the person who can be bothered sharing it to here! Nobody has ever said you cannot disagree with the CRT (chubby red top) either.

That would be amazing if they are. When was the last player brought in just to get a promotion chasing side over the line? Duncan Shearer?

No chance we would go for him - he'll end up at Wednesday if anywhere. Can you imagine den?

Thought Duncan Shearer was purchased to stop another team getting over the line:)

Posted a photo of the (Sunday) mirror article on the orig post, that somebody shared on twitter

Think where he ends up might be where Uncle Steven ends up, but pretty sure any club with realistic hopes of promotion or play offs might see it as a calculated gamble if the terms are right
