The Summer Transfer Thread

[King Ellis]

Saw him play in the Old Firm derby on Sunday.

Reminds me of Collins John. Looked half decent.

Given that Collins John just went back to Holland on a free perhaps that's not a good thing. >_<

Heskey to Villa!

[Guest Ant]

Well true..although when he actually played he looked good

"AC Milan wonderkid Alexandre Pato Spotted outside Celtic Park. Thought to be signing a loan deal. This is what Celtic fans need to get over the unlucky Old Firm result this weekend."

Red&Black-Green&White on 606

If that is true then that will be one of the biggest shocks today.

[Baddar]

2053: I've heard from two separate sources in the last 10 minutes that Joey Barton is about to sign for Portsmouth, allowing Spurs to swoop for Pompey midfielder Lassana Diarra.

Well if Pompey think Barton coming in and Diarra going out is good business, they're retarded.

[Summers]

Diarra is a mercenary, everyone knew this was coming. S'why MON decided against signing him.

Heskey, ehh. Back up to Carew he'd be fine.

[ZJ Penn]

Thing is, I see Heskey as a very similar player to Carew, just worse in nearly every department. Surely the idea of a back-up striker is one with different qualities to the guy on the pitch so that it gives you another option?

[Summers]

No, a back up is a back up. A different type of player would be just that, a different option.

[lanky316]

That or fills the same role if he's injured.

[Guest Some Daft Punk]

Another deal gone through:

2108: ACUTAL PROPER TRANSFER I'M NOT KIDDING

Former Stoke centre-back Danny Higginbotham has rejoined his old club for an undisclosed fee from Sunderland. Told you it'd get mental.

[Summers]

MON's phone is going straight to voicemail.

Doing deals, or pranking Rafa.. Who knows?

Berbs to United.

Heskey to Spurs.

Campbell to Wigan.

Looking likely.

[Crybaby Bunting]

I reckon NONE of those potential deals will go through Sums

[lanky316]

I really hope there's a secret Klinsmannesque deal in the works. This window has seen one of the most frightening strike forces to one of the weaker ones.

[Summers]

I reckon NONE of those potential deals will go through Sums

Why?

Berbs is clearly off. Heskey is the most linked replacement. And Wigan are eyeing up Campbell as a replacement.

[Baddar]

Fuck Setanta Sports News.

Whilst Sky Sports News (got that on a freeview box downstairs) are reporting ALL the latest transfer news, Setanta are repeating the same bollocks (news stories) that's been on since I woke up this morning. Annoying.

And I can't get Sky Sports News upstairs because I'm on Virgin.

[King Ellis]

Isn't there a online stream of SSN?

[Baddar]

Don't think so. At least, I don't know where one is.

Doesn't matter now, watching YOSS.

Yes but you have to be a sky customer and have all the log-in bollocks as well

I liked the one earlier where someone said Arsenal had bid 25.7m for Berbatov but had been rejected and he was like "Oh for the love of god."

[Baddar]

Stevo is a wanker.

Just face it guys.

I forgot that, I liked that one too.

Anyway, SSN just showed Berbs inside Old Trafford with Gill and the others. It's going through.
