No I wouldn't - and that's not what I said. I merely pointed out (and I assume you agree from your point above) that they don't break stories. As a journalist, I imagine it may be slightly frustrating but perhaps not. The last time Andy Naylor broke a transfer story (I think) was when he said we...
They certainly don't get much wrong but, similarly, they very rarely break a story. They hear a rumour, call the club and then either shoot the rumour down or confirm interest...
Naylor now confirming we've given up on him (at least for this window).
Have to admit I was still holding out some hope... Think it's very odd to let Sima leave on loan when we have fewer options up front that we did last season. Assumed we were letting him go in the knowledge that we had...
Very short! Guess he was out there Tues/Wed and back Wednesday night…
May be nothing to it but was hoping it would mean he was seeing a club (of the football variety) whilst out there…
Well the title of the thread is definitely true as our Jurgen flew to Spain on Tuesday (friend was on the same flight). No idea if the trip was transfer related but would imagine it must be (certainly wouldn't be a holiday at this time and he has been training with us before that).
Fingers...
Express usually full of nonsense but they’ve just posted this saying Liverpool have enquired…

Thought a loan made sense but astonished there is an option to buy. Really feel that he is going to be an exceptional player in time… Shows how little I know!!
Best of luck to him. Didn’t work out with us but, unlike Locadia, I think there is a decent footballer in there and can see him doing well elsewhere - really hope he does as is clearly a model professional and a really good guy.
I'm no Pritchard fan but think that is quite harsh on him. He was given abuse by us from the second he walked onto the pitch so, in my mind, there was no issue in giving a bit back to us. I actually thought he handled the post-match interview really well to be honest. Again there was a bit of...
I would have Veltman and Karbownik as the wing-backs and White, Dunk, Burn as CBs assuming Burn is fit. Think we definitely need Burn in the team if he's fit given Newcastle's tendency to lump it forward for Carroll at some point in the match.
His levels have certainly dipped and, as others have said, hopefully it's a small downturn in form and/or he's just knackered rather than anything else. Hopefully the international break will help him.
However, there was one point in the first half where he had me screaming at the TV when he...
Howells taught at Charterhouse after he finished playing but wasn’t educated there.
Another ex-player: Quinton Fortune (ex Man Utd) went to Forest School.
I may be mis-remembering this but I think it was this transfer was the beginning of the end of the Chris Cattlin era. I think he'd said to the Board that he pretty much guaranteed promotion back to the top flight if we signed Houghton but it didn't come off and he was pretty p*ssed off about it...
