Pilko

Deary me, Nicky Weaver and Leon Cort. Laws looks like he's preparing for next season already.

Sonko >>>> Martin Taylor. Wouldn't want us to buy Sonko though, a loan deal would do nicely.

David Craig doing West Ham updates? Thought he was meant to do the North East stuff...

The Bale curse is no more.

WBA get a point, 1-1 it finishes.

He sounds like he already has.

5-0 for Forest.

But surely if we played him we would have to pay Portsmouth more money for him? Doesn't seem sensible course of action imho. was talking about Tavernier fwiw.

Big chance for Dave to flex his ITK muscles here - get onto his auntie and find out whether Hughton has told him he's playing.

It makes little difference imo; not as if he'll be anywhere near match fitness yet.

I'm not negative just pointing out that handing out this type of contract to this type of player is likely going to fill the squad with players who MIGHT not ever cut it in the top flight. I think 2.5 yr contracts should be the order of the day. Help us up. Earn a new contract by end of next season or be moved on. I think the contracts make sense tbh. Simpson will be about 25/6 and Routledge 29/30 when they expire. I'd be more concerned if we gave this length of contract to someone aged 29+ in all honesty.

Really? Far as I knew, he went to Spurs and was alright-ish before his injury problems, followed by quite successful loan spells to Pompey and Fulham, before he went to Villa and never played. I could be wrong, though.

Christ on a bike, we've just made two signings, on the verge of a third. Why are you always so fucking negative, Crumpy?

SSN just said the paperwork is being processed and an official statement will be made later.

he's shit

Vaughan on loan and Williamson on a permanent would be class.

I would play Kadar at LCB next to Enrique, and give Tavernier the benefit of having Colo at RCB to talk him through the game, personally.

Timing.

Harper Tavernier Coloccini Kadar Enrique Guthrie Smith Nolan Gutierrez Carroll Lovenkrands Routledge will probably get half an hour off the bench

Made half a dozen starts for Fulham.

Aye, same here. Thought it was just one of my mates doing his weekly January piss-take "oh we've signed someone, look!". Pace and quality on the right wing, brilliant.

It reminds me of us pushing through Nolan last season to get him signed in time for the Sunderland game.

What's wrong with Simpson? Injured for this game, will be back for Cardiff. IS Ryan Taylor fit? Would rather see Colo stay in the middle if possible. He's suspended, sent off on Saturday. Where have you been?
