    Everyone is on holiday or preparing for the euros. Those out of contract players will bide there time to see who makes an approach. No point grabbing the 1st offer.
    I expect offers have been made, but as far as completing deals it's likely to be mid to late June so players are ready for pre season.

    The first deal will happen late June.

    Way too early for transfers.

    I'm sure NC and NA will have people at the Euros scouting out players. <ok>

    Well, I thought we were at least putting some offers in, but Burnley have said no offers have been received for Rodriguez, which was one of the strongest rumours, so we probably haven't made any. I thought we might take advantage of being promoted before the playoffs to tie down some deals before the final promoted team was able to get in on the act too. I just hope we don't end up regretting waiting &#8212; West Ham will be interested in many of the same players.

    Seriously, everyone is on holiday in the Bahamas laughing at all the rubbish that the press back home are writing about them. Forget about Jay Rod and enjoy the beautiful weather...

    My last exam is tomorrow, then I'm off to Tenerife on a "field trip" which will turn into getting pissed every night!

    Yeah, I've just had three exams in the last three days (horrendous), then the other two are next week. In today's one the bloke said "Engineering exam at the front, French exam at the back", I kind of wish I'd gone to the back now and I just got given the worst third year project in history. So that's not great.
