I would prefer Mariappa if I am honest, free and covers right back

Naylor is well informed. Tell us something we don't know Andy.

He doesn't comment on rumours. Once he tweets something, we know there is a bid or transaction.

Thanks for that...sounds encouraging.

I'm with you in that Naylor is very good at avoiding much of the froth on NSC, and seems to be solid and reliable in the information he conveys. He does occasionally comment on rumours, however, such as to scotch the Bolanos overdrive in the last window.

I think he actually only gets what the club feed him.

When the rumour was circulating about Russell Martin and the club was made aware that a rumour was going around, I have a feeling it was him and a guy at the Mirror that the club contacted to dampen the rumour because they didn't want it to gain any more momentum as there was nothing in it.

There is definitely something in this. I saw him in Next at Shoreham on Tuesday. At the time I couldn't place who it was but knew I recognised him as a footballer, but not one of ours.
The reason I am so sure is because I saw him get in to this car. https://twitter.com/shaneduffy34/status/568442914654855169

He's had insiders at the club for ages, Saw him getting his info on Cullip leaving years ago at a reserve game at Worthing from somebody I would'nt have expected.

I am surprised that nobody on here has given much opinion on Ben Hall. I have never seen him play but working on the basis that he played 19 games for Motherwell in the Scottish Prem is he anywhere near the standard Goldson was when he left Shrewsbury,

The abolition of emergency loans has taken us back in time to my youth when you had a first team and reserves being prepared and geared up to step up as needed.

Jumpers for goal posts as well, my god the 1920s were a terrible time to be a lad, weren't they.

No.

Mark McGhee doesn't think he is Championship-ready yet - Ben Hall is a prospect - but not ready for Championship yet says ex-boss

So is the Scottish Premier and The Championship so far apart in standard then.

I was thinking more of the 50s when we had Don Bates as back up to or as a choice with Steve Burtenshaw and Glen Wilson and Wolves had Eddie Clamp as back up to to Bill Slater and Ron Flowers,

Open to Offers (but happy to stay and not leaving)

So. Is this a goer ? Both reports seem to have some credence.
The first £2m report was in the Irish Sun
The £3.5m report was via the Mirror.
Its not mad made up twitter accounts...

Agents call the tune. Agent talks to agent and neither club may even know what is going on?

I don't know about the football business but the scientist head hunters say it just makes the target employee feel better (boost his ego). But scientists do not have threat of injury ruining their career. I does not faze them at all. It might be only unsettling for the fans.

We made a number of bids for a Blackburn winger last year and failed to land him, let's hope this isn't going to end up the same way. Seems Blackburn play just as hard as we do to retain players.

With the exception of Celtic, yes, very much so.

True, and with Blackburn selling Grant Hanley to Newcastle last week, that won't make things any easier either.
