Harley SIGNS.........three year deal, fee undisclosed

[B.W.]

Welcome Ryan... I think this will prove to be a key signing... he is exactly what we need as an ACM...

The Welsh FA thing is a fcuking joke... the footie authorities are just creating totally unnecessary jobs for the boys...

 

[Mackenzie]

Exactly my thinking! Noone - £300k? Greer - £300k? Barnes - £150k!

Those are incredible value for money. Once we become established in this league their value should AT LEAST double. Apart from maybe Greer who despite being class, isn't a spring chicken.

I'm very chuffed to have Harley in the team. He has a real touch of quality, great range of passing, set piece specialist, good shot and strong in the air. Despite the fact our midfield is playing fantastically, I'm certain Harley will force his way in before too long.

I rate Sparrow as well as a backup but it's getting crowded now and I wonder how Dicker will react if he gets dropped for a few games? Either way it's a long season and I'm delighted to have the strength and depth we now have in midfield.

I think we got Barnsey for £50k, not £150k.

Gus has dropped Dicker quite a few times and he's always won his place back. Don't see why he'd drop him the way he's played in the last few games anyway - especially if we're sticking with three in midfield.

Bridcutt - Dicker

The Welsh FA building is opposite my office - I'll drop them a note through the letter box to hurry them along.

Never mind dropping a note through the letter box, hammer on the door and demand to be let in. Watch over them whilst they fax the clearance and job done.

 

[BrickTamland]

Really good signing, gives us the option of playing diamond formation now, with Harley behind the strikers, two wingers and Bridcutt shielding the defense.

 

[albionite]

According to Palace fans I thought we had spen all our money, an essential signing given our lack of corner taking / free kick taking options.

According to Palace he will probably be on 20k per week

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Any other season this thread would be 5 times bigger already.

Seems we are becoming slighltly more non-plussed about a potentially top signing like this.

 

[JJ McClure]

Assume he'll take the slightly more advanced role that Vincelot has been playing the last few games, with Bridcutt and Dicker behind. Tough on Vincelot as he's looked good.

 

[Acker79]

I'm gonna go home and sleep with my wife!

Why would he want to kill you in public?

 

[pintsawhiskey]

I make it we have spent just over £5 MILLION on putting this squad together so far
CMS £2.5mill
Buckley £1mill
Hoskins £500k
Noone £300k
Greer £300k
Harley £250k
Barnes £150k
Dicker £15k

Vincelot 2 £100k

 

[Sam Ovett]

He did some AMAZING acrobatic moves to take down and control the ball. He looks a very good palyer does Romain

and it will go to the wrong address................................no job is ever DONE in Wales

I know exactly the move you were talking about. Taking the ball mid air in the middle of the pitch shooting towards the North stand. I agree, looks like a very good footballer, great technique and works hard. An excellent addition to the squad

 

[Phat Baz 68]

HE SIGNED HES SIGNED !!!!!

 

[Oscar]

I would think Harley may take Vincelot's spot sooner or later as he's very much needed on the bench as utilitly player. This is easily the best squad we have had in the twenty-odd years I've been watching the Albion. In fact it may be our best squad ever if you take into account the way the game is now and the reliance on strength in depth.

 

[Mendoza]

Vincelot 2 £100k

Ah yes, forgot about him, funny how not so long ago spending £100k on a player seemed like a big deal


Heard Harley has now filmed his walk on thing for the big screen at the amex, so hopefully we may see him tomorrow

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

We have a lot of decent options in midfield with very different qualities, it's amazing.

Do you like kipping Miss Scarlet?

Sure, i'll eat anything!
