Could be good news for us if they lose their top striker and any replacement is a dub.....maybe we can swap him for Eastwood.

yer, OR this unamed club (Southampton) comes in for Juke instead after realising that Dony will hold out for 3 million plus, and SISU will sell Juke for anywhere near the 1 milion mark !

I've read that Saints are the club who have bid for Sharp, leaving MBoro as favourites to sign Juke.

Sharp has apparently got a release clause in his contract from 1/1/12 of £1.85m

I heard it was West Ham who bid for him. Basically no one knows, but they are desperate for a striker.

That's one way to stop him scoring against us I suppose...

Is Beckford still not cutting it for you lot? In my opinion, if Sharp was to join you that'd be play-offs for definite and if Saints, Boro and West Ham keep slipping up then that's not out the question. Would be nice to see what he can do in a team doing well.

He's improving, slowly. Pearson appears to have time for him, which is encouraging.

Not with our midfield it won't. As someone has pointed out on an LCFC board in recent weeks, it appears we've paid out a lot of money for a very average Championship side.

So... not us then. The owners, Eriksson, the players and the fans did a very good job in the media of convincing a lot of people we were title contenders, which was laughable nonsense. I've seen very little to suggest any improvement has been made; in fact, with last season's loanees now gone (Yakubu, Naughton, van Aanholt, Bruma etc etc etc) I'd say we've actually gone backwards. Sharp would be a good addition though...

Just be safe in the knowledge nobody has gone as backwards as us!
