    QPR have got rid of Cisse, Zamora is not fit, Mackie has been told he can leave. Campbell therefore probably thinks it is between him and Bothroyd who will partner Remy so he is likely to fancy his chances of getting a game

    I think it's more likely to be Odemwingie who'll partner Remy.

    The Blackman thing is interesting. Wonder if he turned them down because he wants to stay in the North? He's from Bury.

    £1.2m??? Is he worth that? He's got nearly a 1 in 2 record with the Blunts.

    I really hope we can get someone before the window shuts, because our rivals are getting stronger and we appear to be getting weaker

    Possibly, although I am not convinced that WBA will let him go this window. It could be bravado to bump the price up, but they do appear determined to keep him

    Indeed, though the player has made it clear he wants out and it's never a great idea to keep a player who doesn't want to be there.

    I'm seriously thinking of not coming on here for a few days as all I keep reading is who is, or might be available, & then them not coming here but going everywhere else.<steam>

    Brighton have accepted a bid from leeds of £3.5m for Mckail smith. I would have loved him here.

    It's bollocks, some kid on Twitter made it up to see if he could get a mention on the radio.

    It worked, Blunderside put it in a new bulletin. <laugh>

    Why would Brighton sell their best player to a playoff rival for not much more than they paid for him

    Ewbanks-Blake is dire. He has been for ages. In saying that DJ has done nowt since he left Ipswich Town. One of many that Harry gave a great big upping to after the MKD cup loss.

    It looks like DJ may have only Hull City left now. Greedy b'stard wanting a 3 and a half year contract.

    Sheffield Utd striker Nick Blackman turned down a move to Palace according to media reports.

    He's like a blackman, but better than McLean.

    The problem is if DJ wants a three and half year deal which you can understand at his age, it will properly be his last decent contract and then retirement, he will have to move up here with the family if he is married so he is thinking i am not up rooting the family for anything less but at the same time surely we are not daft enough to give him that length of contract so its stalemate. i now can't see in happening unless something gives on Thursday

    More than trumped us, they already have the top goalscorer in the league, while we barely have a goalscorer.

    Has Mackie really been told he can leave? If that's the case, I think he'd fit our style perfectly. Bin DJ off if he's been fussy and bring Mackie in... or just a double deal, haha.

    The same Ebanks-Blake that has more goals than anybody else in our whole squad, and has scored those goals in a struggling Wolves team?

    DJ Campbell has done nowt since he left Ipswich because he's not been gone 5 minutes.

    All you've said is true dazzar, apart from Mackie, there's already £3m bids in from Fulham and Norwich, we haven't got a prayer.

    It's a good job we've got Darren Bent sorted.

    I thought i heard on SSN Friday that Blackman had signed for CP, obviously not as he played on satdee for the Blades. Maybe worth a shout, didnt Brucie go and watch the Blades recently.
