It a was a tongue in cheek statement !Joey Barton
Joey Barton
Plays in Hungary for FenervacosWhere is Zoltan Gera now. Fits the age and history bit, and wont need the money.
Is Gera the one who it seemed like every single goal he scored was a 30 yarder?

I'd love it to be Joey Barton. He'd be like Dennis Wise was for us.:claping hands:
If money's not an issue and he wants to come here, what's the problem?
Sorry i think we do need at least one more midfielder, currently we have Fleck and Vincelot what i call proper midfield players, just brought in this Bryn Morris, a rookie who is a bit of a defender too and then there is Connor Thomas and JOB but is he a centre midfield player ? Fleck not everybodys cup of tea either. So if a provern midfielder is available than go and get him, subject to the money angle.
Jerome Thomas seems the most likely: recently released by Palace, was with TM at WBA and isn't in another country like Gera.
However, TM said its another 'midfield player and we're already sorted there really'.... which implies it isn't a winger which Thomas is.
The mystery goes on
Bit odd this.
Why would TM feel the need to say anything about this top player until the deal was done? Just doesn't seem like TM's usual style.
If the above comments are accurate it also sounds as if the winger we are after is a loan rather than permanent signing, unless the player is negotiating to be released from his current club i suppose.
I have been a bit confused by the interviews this week with TM. It certainly does seem that the deal that fell through was a winger but on loan which is at odds with what Andy Turner thought earlier in the week. Can't help but think this line about the ex Premier League player is to appease the supporters. If this player has been ringing Mowbray all week why is he waiting until Friday after to try and do a deal with him!
