Wouldn't be that welcoming to be honest, unless Tony for his own reasons wanted out.

It was a direct quote from Gus about a player on the same level as Vicente. May have been in the argus, or on seagulls player, or elsewhere - can't remember exactly.

Lets hope Dunk is still with us next season, and ElAbd isn't involved with Egypt.

Maybe not. We may well be in for 3 or 4 more players. The first 2 including the GEM may be sorted, but we may be struggling for the rest.

I'm hoping we've still got 2 lined up, and that this story is referring to further players after that being a problem. As I say that's the hope.

I'm happy, but not REALLY happy yet. I think we need a strong 1st 18 to cover suspensions, injuries and to have decent sub options. For this I think we need 2 more strikers, and 2 more central midfielders.

Strange how this thread isn't locked down as tightly as the one for Dunk and co.

We need a strong 1st 18, so with this in mind : 2 strikers 2 central midfielders 1 central defender ( possible Miguel on loan from Arsenal )

I imagine you'll at the very least need some points, as Chelsea have sold out their allocation - but 40 may well be OK.

In theory you could get 3,300, but the police will have an input into that number nearer the time, and given your behaviour last year, it could be a lower allocation.

Their main problem is that they live in the past, don't recognise the reality of the present, and are worried about how far they might fall behind in the future.

Got to be today, really. Hopefully 1 or 2 announced.

Not alone, but Chelsea are coming soon and that is one of Gus' favourite subjects to talk about. 4 weeks 'til AMEX :amex: :amex: :amex: :drink: :drink: :drink: :guitar:

Agreed. Please NOT US. We need much better, Reading have been keen to get rid of him for a while.

Gus must surely now have 2 ( or 3 if no Vicente ) midfielders coming in, if JFC is heading away for a while.

Think he played for Mickey Adams (I) around 1999 . Something like that.

Don't agree. Gus is very enthusiastic about signings and perhaps gets a little carried away about how 'imminent' a signature is. But to me, so what? When he says 'a day or 2' just treat it as 'within the next week or so' and you'll probably be closer to the reality.

Probably just quoting word for word what we told him !

Looks like the owners have a masterplan to create an FC Malaysia(cardiff) in the Premier League, which they market and control TV rights to in Asia. I'm sure they'd really like to play home matches over there, but they'll have to settle for showpiece summer friendlies instead.
