He had links of some sort, as said, with Beckfrod, Danns, Dervitte, Buttercup, Moritz & now Moxey.

He tried with that Australian type and also with Parr and another I can't quite recall .... so he has some form for it.

Nothing necessarily wrong with that of course &, interestingly it does suggest that players do like/respect him otherwise it'd be once bitten twice shy.

This new youth team keeper was with him at Palace too wasn't he? That one has a ring of that Burnley kid we got and then never heard from.

As with anything, I suppose it depends if they're good enough.

Can I just say that this is probably the best transfer thread in the history of transfer threads (much better than those other useless ones :wink: ).
I'm detecting shades of Coyle fetching all his old shit along with him here. :shock:
To be fair a lot of managers do this - didn't Bruce Rioch sign plenty from Millwall/Boro (Branagan, Davidson, the oddly-named Gary Parkinson, ex-Wanderer Jimmy Phillips and some chap called McGinlay, off the top of my head. And failed with bids for Alex Rae, Ettiene Verveer and Bernie Slavin....)

So I think we could possibly wait to see how they pan out this season before branding them all with the Coyle mark.

Palace mate popped by yesterday to say that Parr's a good un, excellent for the Champo, unlucky not to be playing now. We didn't discuss Moxey, but ISTR from a quick askaround when we were linked that he, too, is worth a go.

Maybe we used Parr to knock down Moxey's wage demands..

In fact, didn't Parr lose his place to Moxey last season ?

tbf, Parr looked like a good 'un but also tbf to DF he clearly decided we couldn't go another season begging, stealing & borrowing without a proper left back. I wonder if it's a sign that Tierney is more damaged than is being admitted.

Three years. Tierney will be injured for a further 3 years ??

Wow.

:D

I blame Auf Weidersein Pet for me thinking he's scouse. Wiki says he's not, but it does contain this gem, describing him as:

"a left sided player comfortable at left back; he can also can play as a goalkeeper, sweeper and striker"

:shock:

And I like that keeper is second on that list.

Sky sources understand Bolton have rejected a bid from Mainz for goalkeeper Adam Bogdan. He is entering the final year of his contract at Bolton but Dougie Freedman is reluctant to lose him.

http://www1.skysports.com/transfer-centre/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I wonder what was the bid? We may have to sell to prevent losing him for nothing next season if we do not go up.

Hasn't he been fishing for a move for a while now?

Pretty sure he's said he fancies a move to the Premier League so I'm not sure he'd sign another contract with us.

If it was any sort of money offered for Bogdan I'd be really tempted to take it, if it helped get Juke and possibly a further striker on top.

As it stands I don't believe we have enough to mount a challenge on the top 6.

We are two strikers short, might get by with loans so arguably one might be enough. They don't come cheap.

Bogdan had a poor first half and good second half of the season. I don't think he's the difference as it stands between being top 6 and being nowhere, but a striker might just be......

I think Parr suffered an injury. Moxey sounds quite versatile:
