Nah I reckon it’ll be later in the week if before the Swansea game. Could see them delaying it till Saturday eveningMedical and announcement tomorrow I’d expect
love our fans, he’s been spotted at coombe abbey apparantley, it’s always coombe abbeyLampard was spotted there and the forest of arden and the belfry on the same night, no wonder we’re apparantley skint, bloody expenses
The games goneShows how up themselves our new targets have become. Time was you could rely on Phil Masinga being spotted at KFC and Robert Earnshaw filling up his vehicle at the Tesco forecourt on the Arena.
It wasn’t a rumour on here, it was a made up conspiracy by one poster.Yep cause that's what I said that it MUST be.
Doesn't matter if I'm wrong, was just always a rumour on here.
Was chatting to a Leeds fan about Grimes before and didn't realise he went there on loan. His mum slagged off the Leeds fans when he left so apparently he's hated there...View attachment 41102

No idea how you got that from what I saidSo sheaf never makes mistakes?
There's skint and then there's skint.So it turns out we’re not skint then? There’s a surprise.
The point was that it was another made up rumour on here that quickly became fact.There's skint and then there's skint.
Most of the time it's to do with cash flow with football clubs. Most probably we owe millions for players we have bought but will be owed millions from the players we have sold. We won't be paying for Grimes in one go. But we rarely get to know the terms of sales. But when the man on the street is skint it's because he doesn't have a pot to piss in.
Just like most things on hereThe point was that it was another made up rumour on here that quickly became fact.
Every time we have played them since coming back up I’ve left the game thinking how is Grimes not playing above this level. I thought he always looked better than the likes of Flynn Downes who went to the premier leagueI’m amazed that many people commenting on here have obviously never seen him play. We’ve played Swansea 9 times since we have been back in the championship, have never beaten them, and he has been outstanding in most games.
It’s more concerning that people see that he’s 29 and assume he must use a zimmer frame during games.I’m amazed that many people commenting on here have obviously never seen him play.

Exactly! Gary McAllister was running games in the premier league at 35/36. Sometimes you need to invest in players for the here and now and not always think about sell-on valueIt’s more concerning that people see that he’s 29 and assume he must use a zimmer frame during games.
Plus hopefully he will play more games.Grimes is basically Sheaf with fewer mistakes?
Yup. Saddle peddled it too I thinkThe point was that it was another made up rumour on here that quickly became fact.
so long as that agreement says as a golden handshake, they have to let him walk the ball into the goal unchallenged at least 3 timesWould love to see this done today with a gentleman’s agreement about Saturday

Yup. Saddle peddled it too I think
No loans and no oldies is some other myths fans have made up it seems.
I would imagine it's an anti Doug king thing
We were trying to sign Browne in the summer who’s the same age as Grimes. I’ve said all along that we need more experienced players in the squad but I don’t think it’s true there’s a policy where we won’t even consider them.We're the only team in the league without a loanee, so it's not a myth.
And it's clear there's something behind his unwillingness to sign experience players as we've stripped the squad of them
Hopefully with the contract given to Bidwell and this signing (which hopefully goes through), he's seen sense.
One of the reasons I started to come round to the idea of Lampard is I thought King might be more likely to listen to a 'name'. I've no idea if that is the case but it seems plausible to me.

Yes indeed. We signed him at 31 for £3 million back in the 1995/6. He was probably our best player for 4 seasons but we refused to give him a decent extension at 35. He then went to Liverpool on a free. One of the worst bits of business we ever did to let him go. He then played some 80 odd games for Liverpool and had some of his best career form.Exactly!

Depends for my on if Darling goes now otherwise think we’ll go all out for himGut feel is we’ll get Joe Worrall on loan next season now.
