Watford signing 7 players todday a/c to SSN. Almunia and One Size plus 5 loans

I'm sceptical too, especially as Starforth is saying that work is ongoing on agreeing a fee

He's a good journo. I like him, seems a decent lad too. Looking forward to seeing the craic tomorrow

Poor lad - plenty of injuries over the last couple of years

More about information than entertainment. Shaw there isn't any of that either

Worth every penny

My point (albeit an appalling one ) is that just because something has been done before (the purchase of cisse et al) does not necessarily mean that the trick can be repeated so easily. If there are options that are as good, but cheaper I'll trust our network to go for them. The fact that they appear to be after Carroll indicates that they think he is the is the best option at present. I'll cede to their opinion if that is ok as you, as you are so keen to stress, are not scouts. In isolation 15m for Carroll looks a decent deal to me. Hope that is a mature enough justification for my view.

I'm serious. We got ba for free let's do it again. It's that easy isn't it?

I believe that we can find a top drawer striker for nothing. As such we should never pay a fee for a forward again. Can't think of any candidates and am not prepared to speculate or engage in any meaningful discussion though.

The priority is getting deals and good value rather than specific players. That is why we went for de jong and backed off when he was too expensive. Carroll looks like he might be. Relative steal and so we are in for him. Make no mistake though we won't get fleeced. It's frustrating but it is the system.

Should be a real asset in Europe this year

He was communicating what he wanted to say very effectively. Sadly it was bollocks

Lets remember it's only a friendly

It'll happen soon enough, He wants to come, they know it and are just being mardy

I'm sorry, but that's not our job. You can't discount the opinion of anyone that disagrees with you because we are incapable of coming up with a viable alternative. I am just confident we could do better. So yoy've got no answer then. Thought so. . Maybe we should see if Peter Beardsley fancies one last season. No, because I'm not a fully qualified European scout. However I can still disagree with you. If we had Remy saying he wanted to come and we wanted him we could compare him and Carroll and have a reasoned debate. As things stand you have nothing to offer debate wise and so it's a futile exerise. I'm not a qualified football coach but I think that carroll has much to offer. Come up with some possibilities and we can discuss ya?

Not our job by the way lols

I'm sorry, but that's not our job. You can't discount the opinion of anyone that disagrees with you because we are incapable of coming up with a viable alternative. I am just confident we could do better. Undermines the argument rather though, doesn't it?

Tensions are running high.... I'd be elated if we got Carroll. It would be a coup. 3 top strikers a champions league qualifying teameth make

Chin up poppett, dont take it too heart. Your turn as the bullet magnet tonight. Well. You tend to get quite frustrated when everyone jumps at you for basically no reason and explanation. I've explained. You were talking rot

Well. This is the forth friendly and I think you can start to see a pattern. And oh. There was also a last season. we finished 5th What has that to do with Shola and Willo? Williamson was a first choice centre half from November onwards. You're not very bright are you? What has that to do with passing? Don´t it occur to you that we maybe could have done even better? Or if we want to do even better maybe he is one to improve? I didn't say he was perfect merely what 'it had to do' with him.
