Think I've caught up on the thread now.

I think I've missed the confirmation that Graham has now signed - as posted by ITK poster rover11. Anybody help?

Not official, but alledgedly all agreed according to a few sources.

Kamy tweeting he thinks it's Jack Byrne a young lad from Man City ... I thought he was ex CIA , famed for his circle of trust

A good article on him from when he was on loan in the Netherlands last season

A lot of our best players from the last 20 years where either loans(or loans prior to signing permanent) freebies, cheapies or promoted from the accademy, in fact i think we've had far more luck with the players that we've had via those routes than we have with players we've paid over a million or two for.

What became of that man? All 5ft of him. I'm guessing he earned a handsome living in the UAE.

According to wiki, spent 4 years in Dubai after transferring for approx $5 million from his Chilean club. Then went on loan to a club back in Chile in 2013. Still contracted to the club in Dubai until 30th of June this year http://www.transfermarkt.com/carlos-villanueva/profil/spieler/53164

Speaking of strange signings our old mate Bruno moves around a lot http://www.transfermarkt.com/bruno-ribeiro/profil/spieler/76181

I take YouTube videos with a pinch of salt after him. It would be nice to have an attacking and creative side but we need graters like Hanley. I used to dread seeing him on the team sheet but he has improved massively since Dann moved on.

And a lot of the worst players we have had have been free.
