Somehow I doubt if both Davies and Baldock will be here when the L1 season reaches the end of it's first transfer window I have the sort of horrid feeling we might end up with another Maynard saga where one or both will leave on the last day of the window.
27 May 2013 20:58:52 Bristol City to announce the signings of up to 8 players during this pre-season, this due to the mass exodus of players leaving BS3 close season. Many more are to follow with contracted fan favourites Adomah, Cunningham and Davis all looking for quick returns to the championship but will go for decent fees. Adomah linked with Cardiff/Blackpool was subject to bids during the season from newly promoted Crystal Palace. The interest may return again. In at the west country club look to also interesting as signings now must fit certain criteria, with defensive midfielder Wynter signed from Arsenal, Aden Flint is expected to complete his move from Swindon Town this week. Burton Albion's out-of-contract Maghoma looks to be turning away offers from Swindon Town and Port Vale amid interest from Bristol. The winger is highly rated and could be seen as a long term replacement for out-bound Adomah. Bristol also have an unwanted problem, in which they find themselves with no senior goal keeper on the books. Hartlepool Keeper Flinders looks to be on the Ashton Gate wanted list but is highly rated by other clubs as well. Not retained by Doncaster, goalkeeper Gary Woods looks to be snapped up on a fee regardless of the Flinders situation. Other names linked with Bristol City are Stevenage pair Luke Freeman and free agent Dunne, also Sheffield United's Harry Maguire looks to be a possible transfer target. One striking option could be the man they call JET, he's nothing like a Jet fighter but can, when on form play football quite well. Jay Emmanuel Thomas. He's a free agent and Sean O'driscoll has had him before at Doncaster. Where he showed arguably his best form. I am not a Bristol City, Stevenage, Doncaster, Sheffield United, Hartlepool etc. Just a football writer. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 27 May 2013 20:51:24 Bristol city have had a 180k bid accepted for James dunne and have agreed personal terms for centre back aden flint who should be announced by Wednesday.
We will be back to our old recurring problem if Cunningham does leave only 1 LB at the club. Back to searching Mr O'D and Mr Burt. Having said that they seem to know their football and footballers One slight problem is Dunne a free agent or not one writer says free the other says we have offered 180,000 which was accepted if he is a free agent of course they will accept 180,000 far better than SFA isn't it?
Only a fee if he was offered a better contract than the one he was on if he was not offered a contract or if the contract was not an improvement on the previous one then no fee and no compensation
28 May 2013 11:45:56 Sod is trying to bring billy sharp to Bristol city and also expect flint, maghoma and dunne to sign this week 28 May 2013 11:53:25 Leicester City are looking to get rid of several of their higher earners before the start of the new campaign. Sean St. Ledger has already been told he can leave, and Paul Konchesky, Richie Wellens and Paul Gallagher may also follow suit. One likely replacement is Greg Cunningham of Bristol City, who will be looking for a return to the Championship after performing well last season despite Bristol City's relegation. It is thought the Robins value him at around £1m, and Nigel Pearson would be willing to meet this price tag to bring him to the KP Stadium and increase competition amongst the defenders at the club. 28 May 2013 12:21:41 Bristol City: Ins - A 4th bid has not yet been made to Aiden Flint of Swindon and no bid has been made for Dunne of Stevenage. The club are looking at other centre-half options and may make a bid for another League 1 player this week. Outs - no formal bids for Albert Adomah though Crystal Palace and Cardiff have made enquiries. Also 3 or 4 Championship sides have registered an interest. The stories of the club accepting £1m are wide of the mark. 28 May 2013 13:18:15 Crystal Palace to sign: Simeon Jackson - Norwich - Free Nicky Shorey - Reading - Free Albert Adamoah - Bristol City - 1. 5 Million Thomas Ince - Blackpool - 5 Million Kevin Phillips - Blackpool - Free Willfred Zaha - Manchester United - Loan
28 May 2013 13:18:15 Crystal Palace to sign: Simeon Jackson - Norwich - Free Nicky Shorey - Reading - Free Albert Adamoah - Bristol City - 1. 5 Million Thomas Ince - Blackpool - 5 Million Kevin Phillips - Blackpool - Free Willfred Zaha - Manchester United - Loan Not sure what this idiot is on 3 right sided midfield players Zaha, Ince and Adomah even Hollowhead isn't that stupid is he? Plus I'd be surprised if Man Utd would pay £15M for a player then let him spend 18months at a rival club that makes no sense what so ever think this is just wishful thinking.
I can see Albert going to Cardiff to rekindle his partnership with Maynard. They both admitted that they liked the parnership they had together just before Maynard left And before we start the annual Maynard is **** and won't play, Malky rates him highly there so I would'nt be surprised if he starts next season.
I see that all this Adomah will leave on the cheap is coming from Ghana soccernet Do you think they should be told to keep their noses out of business at the Gate?
Has anyone noticed sean St Ledger is available on a free, do u think he'd drop down and would he be affordable?
28 May 2013 14:11:40 Burnley in advanced talks with Bristol City striker Sam Baldock for a fee believed to be in the region of 500k 28 May 2013 16:44:46 Utter rubbish, We paid a premium for Sam and he's well under contract with us, your looking for at least double that amount to even budge him from us, he's a talented player in league one. We'll most likely keep him. 28 May 2013 15:08:24 Bristol City to sign: Adam Flint Scott Flinders Brian Jensen James Dunne Adam Rooney And an approach has been made to Matthew Killagon Latest on the rumour site.

The defender said in an interview he would love to finish his career back at the memorial stadium. 29 May 2013 05:31:07 Patrick Dulleck to Bristol City From Karlsruher SC, Season Long loan with Option. Connections within the club.
Patrick Dulleck hasn't scored a senior goal as far as I could see and he has only played 13 times for the first team since 2009 when he made his debut Wiki not working properly atm I'll try and get more info later.
