What happened to Santa Cruz cause he seems like he would come down and would be a good striker at this level and he's 6,2" so possibly the target man were looking for??

What makes this the official thread? Did Bozza sanction it?

The reason why it's hard to find a striker is because we seem to have a 10k wage cap???Let's be honest if this is the case we'll not get a proven championship striker.The best option is to pick up some foreigner who has issues similar to vicente and bridge or a player who needs a fresh start like bruno.

Is our wage cap really 10k we'll never know:D
you call half a million a year a cap !

Instead of clogging up the board with rumours, speculation and suggestions, lets all try and keep it to one thread !


If Leeds are going to take Mackail Smith off our hands then I'd expect over £3million but personally I can't see it. Would anyone take a swap deal with McCormack ?

How will everybody know if there is a new rumour??

If in the unlikely event that i get a bit of inside info, i'd shout it off the rooftops with a spanking new thread...i'm pretty sure most people would do the same!

And besides, someone came up with this idea before, the thread disappeared after a day or two.

When I come on NSC I want to see if there are any new rumours about then log off not wade through 30 odd pages to see some big black bloke is at the Amex surrounded by cameras or read all the drivel about what colour socks people are wearing

If anyone on here seriously believes Vicente/Kuszczak/Bruno and even the % of what we are paying Man City is £10k or less, they are living in dreamland.

It was reported in the press that the loan deal to bring Bridge to The Amex was heavily subsidised by Man City to the tune of £80k per week and we're only paying £10k a week towards his wages. Blackpool had a £10k per week wages cap when they won promotion and stuck with it during their season in the Premier League.

That's as maybe. Do you believe Vicente is only on £10k a week, or less???......please, do me a favour.

I think Vicente is almost certainly on a performance based pay deal so it's hard to put a figure on it.
If he doesn't play I don't reckon it costs us too much, but if he plays and scores a lot of goals it would cost us a nice few quid.
Take a look back at the home game against Portsmouth. When he scores the first goal Gus turns round to look up at the directors box, rubs his thumb and fingers together in a 'money' type way and shrugs then laughs.

Yeah this is even more annoying than people posting new threads as means have to look through from page say 9 and then keep clicking 3 at a time until get to page last read stories at, you need to get a new page for rumours and then people can start up new threads on rumours on that page, as people will continue and have every right to start up a rumour if they feel they want to or feel they know something or heard something, thats part of fun of football, if dont wanna read it dont open it to start with, simple.
