BigJim Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Malbranque is just the latest in a long line of high profile players who have allegedly turned us down. We should be looking at Europe, where perhaps the club has a better reputation. How about one of those Brazilian hotshots Olveira or Baptista? Or, perhaps more accessible, Benni McCarthy? Now Blackburn have dropped their interest we won't have to compete for his signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avfcinwales Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Seems the mail reckon Distins deal is a done one except Man City won't let him go until they have enough money for a replacement and to get that they bneed Chelsea to cough up silly money for Wright Phillips.

Richard Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 So what would the feeling be on Bowyer? would anybody be ok with him signing? The thread from yesterday was locked but its a valid question at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 The Bowyer question seems more pertinent since Malbranque seems to have been dismissed as a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwheels Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 As I've said, a separate speculation subforum would be better as you could then simply move the debates there rather than locking them which makes it hard for the debate to continue. As for Bowyer - at his best, he would walk into our first team. Just depends exactly what levels he can reach now as opposed to 2001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LancsVillan Posted June 17, 2005 Moderator Share Posted June 17, 2005 yeah good idea - for the next window BW Unless simon can do something this time, not sure he even looks at this I'll ask him in private Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villafan306 Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 Football-rumours.com reports that we have done a deal for Owen. Some nutcases may believe it too! I think we'll end up with Phillips as our only other signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 Absolute crap. Its been on there every day for the last couple of weeks. We can but dream... More realistically, how about Fernando Cavenaghi from Shaktar?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melv Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 linked in the notw today to Stuart elliott of Hull City. He managed to be their top scorer even though he played most of the time in midfield and was injured for the last part of the season. However, i'm sure they'll be wanting a decent amount and therefore not worth the risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Taylor: Elliott not for sale Hull boss Peter Taylor has warned suitors Aston Villa, Charlton and Portsmouth that star winger Stuart Elliott is not for sale. Reports have linked the Premiership trio with the Northern Ireland international. But Taylor is adamant that not even a bid of £3m would persuade the Tigers to sell the Ulsterman. "If clubs think they can get him for £3m, they are wasting their time," said Taylor. "When you look at the market, he's got to be worth more than that. "I know Stuart is very happy here - and we're obviously very happy with him," he told the Hull Daily Mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 the Independant today report that the arrival of Park Ji Sung at ManUre could spell the end for Liam Miller, Keiran Richardson and/or John O'Shea Not fussed about Miller at all and Richardson will probs end up at West Brom but Joh O'Shea would be an excellent aquisition!! He can play LB and CB- has experience of playing top level and shouldn't cost too much (around £2.5m - £3.5m) I'd like to see us put an £8m- £10m double bid in for Smith and O'Shea - that'd be better than stubbs and phillips wouldn't it???

bigwheels Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 the Independant today report that the arrival of Park Ji Sung at ManUre could spell the end for Liam Miller, Keiran Richardson and/or John O'Shea All three would add significantly to the squad.
