Lots of things help the summer pass. Discussing how accurate Nixon is these days, for one.

Drinking boot polish from a tin, for another.

Re: Abdoulaye's going t'Souk transfer thread

I mean nobody would suggest he is 100% accurate. Not even our local paper is 100% accurate and they supposedly only print when things are confirmed by the club. My view with Nixon has always been that for whatever reason (and I can't imagine what posesses him to do this) he tweets stuff that is hap...

Re: Abdoulaye's going t'Souk transfer thread

bloomin' Norah!! Nixon's just a purveyor of gossip/speculation based on what he may have heard is going on. if folk can't handle uncertainty - then just read the official site where transfers are reported when they are done deals. horses for courses. if you're interested in gossip/speculation - rea...

Re: Abdoulaye's going t'Souk transfer thread

Think we can score this one as a miss for Mr Nixon. I'm fairly certain he will have used some weasel words to indicate that we both might and might not sign him , so it clearly won't be interpreted as a miss. This is a stupid point because any situation you may or may not sign a player. How can he ...

Re: Abdoulaye's going t'Souk transfer thread

Lets pretend what Nixon says is true that we've made an enquiry, been quoted £1M up front and said it is too much and are now mulling over our other options and keeping an eye out to see if that price on Murray drops at any point. Why would his wife know about that anyhow? It isn't like a price has...

It took me a moment to realise that you were talking about Nixon there, and not ITV's teletext service.

Then I realised we left the 1980s some years ago.

Oh well.

Re: Abdoulaye's going t'Souk transfer thread

On another unrelated subject, I've just noticed that Matt Mills has been made vice capitaine. With the re-signings of Wheater and Ream, are we to read anything into this (like a change of position for Ream)? Or more time at fullback for Ream? Sorry, I meant to add with the signing of Dervite at CH ...

Re: Abdoulaye's going t'Souk transfer thread

How it can even be considered as a meritorious thread without any serious mention of Veloso, is beyond my comprehension. It's probably a good job we didn't sign The Pole.

Given we have another million midfielders, and he wouldn't have played anyway, I suppose that's good.

Re: Abdoulaye's going t'Souk transfer thread

Indeed. Though to be fair that particular website does seem to have an agenda against the club. No quotes as DSB would point out, so a pinch of salt is probably order of the day. Quotes aren't always the be-all-and-end-all - sometimes people don't want to be quoted. Sometimes, even when they are, i...
