The Cardiff Summer Transfer Thread

Bellars is a non starter IMO just because he went to them to make a dream move work after it failed once before I can’t see him leaving after 1 year just because some other manager might not fancy him. I believe he will want to stay and fight for a place and we all know he can be a bit stubborn about where he moves to if the club don’t want him anymore. LOL.

Also as sheep says Bellars dont play for us so if NRC wanted to join us i would snap his hands off. Would he join us now thats the problem as said already he will be looking at a move back to the prem. Oh well Danny Guthrie it is then shame.

 

I am expecting big things for Harris next season. He was kept under wraps for last 4 months of season; and with a decent pre season ahead of him, he could in fact be the speedy winger we craved and missed so badly last season. Whetehr his delivery is any good, time will tell but wheatever it is, City need to invest in 2 forwards who can find the back of the net regularly.

Steve Morison's name is being floated and I'd have a go for Scott Dobie of our little brothers down the road.

 

Joe Lewis has signed.

'CARDIFF boss Malky Mackay is ready to agree an £800,000 fee with cash-strapped COVENTRY for skipper Richard Keogh.

Mackay is being backed to strengthen his side after their playoff defeat and hopes to agree a fee for the experienced centre-half.

Keogh was relegated with the Sky Blues but impressed with a series of solid performances and now Mackay wants him at the heart of his defence.'

Can't see him being better than Hudson or Turner but we need cover, could be the end of Gerrard.

 

Not sure why

a: you'd put yourself nett £500k down for another bench warmer.
b: an experienced player would come as a bench warmer.

Have we had a big offer for Turner?

 

Was wondering the same remote. Mind you, remember the last centre back we bought from a relegated club?

 

Ah! Just had another thought (that's 2 this year). Perhaps Turner is going to be our new striker!

 

Are we sharing a brain cell. It crossed my mind, but dismissed as I did the 'Joe Lewis as a striker' thought. His U21 games saw him play up front off the bench.

 

Perhaps MM is building a squad of multi-functionaries (is that a word?).

 

Yes Clingo

"That" is definitely a word.

Sorry, sarcasm is the lowest form of whit. I'll get me coat!!!

 

To say nothing of "wit".

I'll get my coat too - fancy a beer?

 

I know who whitts is, he's the guy in the middle of the park that looks like dobbie to house elf. Is sarcasm a new signing and why is he lower than whitts? Nothing on BBC or the official site.

 

I see that Keogh can play right fullback too, could this mean Darcy is on his way ?

 

Could do with a beer now Clingo, its bloody hot and sticky in my office today. Might get some thunder storms later. Be good to clear the air a bit - and save me having to water the garden tonight.

CCFC - Sar Casm is a second cousin to Fac Etious, quite useful Greek players I hear and available quite cheaply although the rumour is Southampton have outbid us again.

 

I don't know about greeks, but it may be worth a look around Italy right now.

 

True Clingo, must be someone out there who can fix that for us.

 

Shame we can't get the Splott maffia on the case.

In seriousness though, with some Italian politicians becoming quite vocal about suspending the Italian leagues for a season, I hope we've got someone keeping an eye on developments. Suspending the leagues may sound pretty far fetched to us, but believe me, anything can happen in Italy.

 

Any news on bjorn sigurdarson?

 

Darius Henderson is on our radar apparently. Big solid player.
