    THIS time!

    I only slagged off HITC, all the others were quoting HITC as their source! <ok>

    Am I right in thinking we've now signed 3 CB's already this year???
    WHY haven't we signed any midfielders???? <doh> <laugh>
    Seems like SW/DF have identified that position as a weakness in the squad. <yikes>

    Zimmerman really seems to be a find. Wasn't he on a free as well when his contract expired? Now that's proper business.

    I think that's right. He came in very low key at the time but has certainly risen to the occasion. It's Franke who has struggled more, but he looked good as well against QPR. Villa will be a real test of both though. Glad to see that it looks like we've now signed Raggett according to the EDP. Loaning him back to Lincoln until January seems strange unless we're going to sign another CB. Has it ever been confirmed that we've signed Fonkeu?

    Unless Klose's return is imminent?
    I like the fact that, similar to Maddison at Aberdeen, the loan is for half the season with the option to recall / retain him after it ends.

    Klose would help certainly, but if we're going to play 3 CBs much, the demand will be greater if injuries occur.

    That's come out of the blue!! Would be a great signing. Just don't trust the source. I think they read it from HITC.

    As I was outrageously saying last night. A lot of hype about him, a lot of interest from Championship and Premiership clubs, the fans he's leaving behind seem genuinely gutted, but aren't surprised he's been pinched.

    Will be exciting to see how he gets on this season. He was great last season by all accounts.

    If you pair of piss-taking idiots care to read my post properly, I said they get about one in twenty correct!

    They were so correct at quoting Oliveira to Reading weren't they? <doh>

    I dunno. the windows not closed yet, and Reading admitted they were trying to get him. So pretty accurate.

    Do you believe that we are signing Raggett yet?

    As I said, I will believe it when the club announce it, which they have.

    HITC reported Oliveira to Reading even though Jap Stam said they couldn't afford him, so no, not very accurate!

    Did our clubs twitter account say that Reading can't afford him? Otherwise I can't trust your sources.

    The source was a recorded interview with Jap Stam himself so pretty reliable, but you carry on wriggling on the hook, it's very entertaining, though sadly, the time it takes you to do so may well cost you a few hours of binge-watching netflix crap! <ok>

    I'm not wriggling on anything. You needlessly berated me for posting transfer gossip on a transfer gossip based thread, told me I was talking crap and to only post news of deals confirmed by the club (totally missing the point of the thread). I then got proven right the very next morning with a post from the clubs account. Poetic.

    I wasn't berating you for posting it, I was merely pointing out HITC's very poor record, you, for some reason, took umbridge and started spouting at me!
