    Simeon Jackson

    Certainly wouldn't be the first failed city player to go on to be an asset elsewhere

    Squad Numbers

    I was pulling your leg with the Wigan comment. I totally see your point and I have been in a similar boat myself, living over 100 miles away from Cov and having a young family.

    Rumour - Possibly after Izale McLeod

    The one thing i did note was that the club put out firm denials of interest in Leon Best and in the Huddersfield lad (name escapes me) but havent done so with McLeod, despite all the rumours. Edit: Spoke to soon...

    Squad Numbers

    I believe Wigan have a lovely squad this season, perhaps they would be more you cup of tea?

    Squad Numbers

    I don't imagine anyone else wanted 18, Ricketts did, don't see a problem with it

    Striker Update

    Decent enough squad players IMO, both are versatile, both can do a job. Sign up 2 pacey wingers to be first choice and Swanson and JOB add quality to the bench.

    Predicted Finish

    ^This Comfortable top half finish this year and further quality additions to the squad in January and again next summer, ready for a proper promotion push next year.

    Ricketts wore number 18 at Wolves, lucky number or whatever.

    Best Stadiums

    Not technically a football stadium (although football has been/is played there sometimes) but the Ericsson Globe in Stockholm is the best stadium I've visited. It's the biggest spherical building in the world which gives a very different perspective when you’re sitting inside it. It also...

    Webster Still About

    Isn't it more likely that we are just allowing him to train with us to keep his fitness up until he finds a new club?

    Samaras

    Beg to differ; Admittedly its just a wiki entry so it means nothing at all but thats what it says. I did have a look on the sporting lisbon website news section but hes not mentioned on there. They were linked with him previously when he was at Celtic. I'd imagine he will go to a club in...

    Samaras

    His Wiki page says he signed for sporting lisbon (although admittedly it also says he plays for us).

    Mowbray went to watch Pennington

    Henen looks a good shout, he's 19 and has only just signed for Everton on a permanent deal last season after being on loan from Olympiakos last season, Bit odd to loan a player to sit in your U21 squad but i guess they wanted to have a look at him before making a decision. Can't see him making...

    Behind closed doors friendly

    Interesting that Lameiras (Sp?) is named, don't they usually just use trialist on the team sheet, even if the identity is known?

    FAO Dohdoh

    If we are signing them we need their team mate Sid Esalad

    Joe Murphy

    How many threads about Burge? He will be our keeper this season, TM has said as much.
  19. Manchester_sky_blue

    Chris Kirkland anyone?

    Burge will be number one. TM clearly likes him and the interview Oggy gave to the paper singing Burge's praises was no coincidence. We might bring a loan keeper in later on if Burge is struggling but otherwise i fully expect him to play the full season. Charles-Cook looked decent at Nuneaton, i...

    Chris Kirkland anyone?

    If he signs for Bury we will have been :)
