Thursday - ON OUR RADAR

*New* Markus Suttner - It's that German connection again. 30 year old Full back/CB. Via A report in German paper "Kicker" and perhaps another player from that relegated FC Ingolstadt 04. Has "merit" says that Bozza and he normally knows. 7/10
http://www.northstandchat.com/showthread.php?353101-Markus-Suttner
*New* Gianluca-Lapadula Scored 8 goals in La Liga for Milan last season. 27 year old striker. "we've sent a delegation" to watch him says sketchy local news reports. Watch him score a hat trick it appears as Italy thumped San Marino. 3/10
http://www.northstandchat.com/showth...-Milan-Striker
*New* James Troisi Another Oz international . "Negotiations intensifying" and "looks set to join" says local proper Oz paper. Played v Brazil last night and lost 4-0 so clearly getting ready a for a difficult season in the Prem with us. 6/10
http://www.northstandchat.com/showth...ions-intensify
*new* Simon Kjaer "readying a 7.5m bid" says Talk Sport - ie: they found the sauce as did NS user; Jamie The Seagull on Turkish sports site ; Fotomac. But really. Another centre back ? I'm giving it 3/10
http://www.northstandchat.com/showthread.php?353009-Simon-Kjaer-Fenerbahce-CB/
Will Hughes - not *new* really as Albion have been sniffing around him for years. The Mail had a report at the weekend saying we've opened bidding at £4m (as if !) and will Rowett let him go ? . Mooy looks more likely so 5/10.
*new* World CUP WINNER - Josh Onomah - "wanted on loan" says The Sun but then how many loanees can we actually have (just 2) so who knows. The usual suspects (Hudds, Celtic) want him too. Surely post u20s hype so 4/10
*NEW* Musa - (no change) Out of favour Leicester forward. NO, NOT THAT ONE. STILL ONLY A single report in the Express which quotes his agent in er, "OwngoalNigeria". "Sounded out" he says. Well THEY ALL SAY THAT.. 2/10.
Ferland Mendy - Le Havre. No report since initial flurry which normally indicates guff. 21 year old French full back. Albion clearly eyeing up this position mind. 2/10
Joe Gomez -Argus seem very keen on this one. Keep writing stories about the lad. So i'm upping this to 8/10
Tammy - STILL "can't make his mind up" .Poor lad. GET ON WITH IT. Basically its us or Toon still. U21 tournament imminent. 5/10
Ryan - Surely Surely DONE. Whens the shirt being held in the dead at night at an empty Amex (presumably when Australia finish their internationals. Barber hinting strongly in Argus today (Thursday)
Genki - (no change) still not going away. Nothing for days. And another winger 4/10
Cafu - (no change) Quiet for a bit.. Fair amount of reports/guesses in big papers. Clearly a striker is on the cards but not this one ? 4/10
Cairney With Mooy all gone then maybe its back on. But doubt cautious TB is going to get into a bidding war for TC. 3/10
Maenapaa - Not sure of delay with this one. All signed, sealed and ...Presumably on holiday. Barber says they are still at it. 10/10
A.Another - Gross style signing out of the blue not rumoured anywhere. 10/10.
u23 A.Nother Exciting new signing but then you realise they're headed direct to Dev Squad never to be seen again or for BHAWFC. 10/10

Long since Dropped from list as it was too long anyway: Macdonald, Snodgrass.

Signed: Gross.
New Contracts: Stephens, Sidwell, Bong, Maenpaa (TBC)
Gone: Stockdale
So Near Yet So Far: Mooy,

NB: A bit of caution in BHAFC rumoursville. Andy Naylor reminds us pushers of this gossipfest.
"Nothing in a lot of the names you're seeing".

Anyone missing - let me know. I NEED A SAUCE to include.

I was just reading an article in today's La Gazzetta dello Sport about Brighton being interested in Lapadula. He would be a great signing - he's much better than last season's numbers show. Apparently Torino wants Lapa as well, so we better hurry and make a concrete offer.

That would be the Argus that can't tell the difference between Man United and City.

Poor lad who did the social media today.

is not the bloke(s) asking TB, CH, PB on a daily basis whether x or y target is true or not.

It's the Argus that chooses to employ someone who doesn't know anything about sport. The blame lies with the Argus, not whomever they got to do their social media.

It doesn't matter if they're asking TB, CH, or PB hourly, they're not going to be given information that the club doesn't want leaked.

There will always be a lot of rumours about targets. Will half of those rumours be accurate - no. Do we need a shit paper to tell us that? No.

Thanks for that Gem. I read it in an Alan Freeman voice accompanied by the Top 20 "Pick of the Pops" Music.
