No chance of us getting Nolan tbh. I'd say he is impossible for us to purchase simply because Gartside knows what a blow it would be to Bolton not only to lose both Allardyce and Nolan, but to lose them both to a club who finished 6 places lower than them. It would show a major lack of ambition to move forward and it would seriously affect their attendances and other aspects of the club. Maybe he'd be available to us in a summer or two but I think at the moment he is off the table.

Doubt their is any truth in this. He has used the claim of Premiership interest many times any nothing has materialised.

That confirmed?

At the end of the day being a journalist is about selling papers, it's not really about whether their is any truth in the story.

Not overly keen on him.

As I said in the other post he won't even get introduced to Sam as when he returns for preseason training it will be with PSV. The loan deal was agreed before Roeder was sacked.

Forster is 19, as is Krul. Forster is only a month older than Krul.

The academy is wank. The academy that has been to two consecutive FA Youth Cup semi-finals with one of the youngest squads about is wank? Yes. Sorry for the very valid opinion. It's not really a valid opinion unless you back it up with some evidence. I could make a sweeping statement like "Shearer has always been shit" but that doesn't make it a valid opinion.

Link That says we could be playing Bradford Park Avenue, most likely in late July.

Will be playing Juventus at SJP in late July, most likely the week before the Amsterdam tournament.

Windup thread surely?

If it is staying as it is it should be scrapped. .com is far superior in terms of match reports, keeping stats and fixtures up to date, opinions and posting new news.

Don't understand that, West Ham would be wanting atleast what they payed for him in January. No, I'm talking about two players who Wenger gave up on who've done well for themselves. You could even add Pennant I guess. Good piont in that case.

If you think we'll get Campbell for £1 million your off your head. He's out of contract next year but Harry will still milk all the money he can get, I'd expect he'd cost us £3/4 million minimum.

Apparently on his way out at Arsenal and I think he'd be a great buy for a couple of million. He's only 22 and looked promising at Arsenal up until this year where he has hardly played, would definetly be worth it for the price imo.

yeah, they only need 75%+ to take the club private iirc. nothing to stop someone else coming in and buying the Halls shares or becoming majority shareholder. i think shepherd is coming out saying he'll never go/wants to buy up more shares because he is worried about the halls selling up and wants to frighten away potential investors by appearing intransigent. You need 90% to take the club private.

You can't buy more than 30% of the shares without launching a takeover bid. Then for any takeover bid to be successful Freddy would need to sell. That's why any takeover bid would be impossible without Freddy's support.

Don't know anything about that Fernandes, could be another one of Big Sam's hidden gems.

I'm sure Freddy would take measures to protect his position, like have Bruce or Kenny buy up some shares.

Baines for £4million, you have to be joking, you are going to be looking closer to £8million. Also the fact that you even want Hunt makes your post even more laughable.

He's left for PSV. The loan deal has already been agreed and he''ll start his pre-season training at PSV.

Definetly not.

I feel very uneasy about Anelka. He seems to move club virtually every year and I don't think he is a particularly brilliant striker, certainly not worth any more than £9m.
