The only Hacks on twitter that I'll listen to is Naylor/Owen and Amy Lewis - any others I'll take with a pinch of salt regarding Brighton trfs.

if she starts tweeting this then I'll take notice!

Who's Amy Lewis, and why is she to be trusted?

She's who I quoted when I started the Liam Rosenior thread, she also tweeted yesterday about Hemed costing close to a Million. So like Peter O'Rourke, she's someone worth following.

Watford supposedly in for Rudy Gestede from Blackburn, who also seem on the verge of selling Tom Cairney to Fulham.

If they let Rhodes go too, it could be a long cold winter at Ewood Park (anybody know how many parachute payments they have left?).

Not 100% certain but I think they've got 1 more year left at £12million a season. Actually it might be £16 million as £12 a season was for clubs relegated in 2009/10 and Blackburn were relegated 11/12 season and another article about them signing Rhodes talks about them getting £16 million. This is their 4th season in the Championship so the final season of any payment anyway.

One. They came down with Bolton and, like Bolton, have made huge losses each year.

2015-16 will, indeed, be their 4th and final payment; it will be in the region of £10 million.

In the argus today :

Hughton still wants a LeftBack, and another Striker ( amongst others ).

So,

- Rosenior was NOT our LeftBack singing.

- Does Murphy count as a striker or a winger ? ???

- I suppose the uncertainty over Dunk is delaying our Central Defender purchase(s).

Is Tomlin any good ? ???

Can't say I've particularly noticed him before.

Think he only played about 20 league games for them last season, not sure if that was through form or injury.

It's OK, they still have Leon Best!

We need another one anyway even if he stays.

I'm reliably told that the Tomlin rumour is rubbish. Middlesbrough rate him very highly and is technically the most skill full player at the club. Also they are building and not looking to sell anybody.

However, the same 'source' told me that there might be something in the Buckley rumour, although he hasn't heard anything specific himself. He tells me that Buckley was a no risk Poyet signing and isn't considered good enough. They are looking to move him on.

I'd question whether we could afford him even if we were in for him.

Bournemouth have bid £2m for Glen Murray (talksport).

Norwich also interested.
Norwich appear overloaded with strikers.
Would not mind Gary Hooper (and Elliot Bennet).

Whilst Bmuff spend £8m on a defender that cannot defend, the other promoted team are .....

"The Sun also reports that Watford are favourites to sign Joey Barton following his release by QPR."
