    I met a pal of mine today and he told me that the new investment will be announced soon along with our first signing in the new year Nakki Wells he must be the first signing since John King McCole and he wasn't bad either I have discounted Delph
    I think we will sign Burke who is out of contract in June and I have a feeling Norris will go the other way
    Lets wait and see I think this will help our promotion inspirations what do you think

    I think we can do a hell of a lot better than Chris Burke if we're after a winger.

    This bloke we've just signed is a winger. Max Gradel is a winger. Max Gradel is better than Chris Burke and this new kid is younger than Chris Burke.

    I just generally think there are better options out there than a player that Birmingham have refused to sell to us for a reasonable price for the last 3 transfer windows. Give it up.

    John King McCole was a centre forward we bought from City and he proved a great buy good in the air as well as good ball control if my memory serves me right scored a goal at Blackburn which saved us from relegation I will try and remember the years in question

    There is talk on here or another site that we're trying to bring Gradel back. If so, he'll fit in somewhere and will give us both the winger and an additional striking option. We also know he'll have plenty of support from the Manager.

    If Anibie is a winger, is BMD planning for a change of formation to 442?

    McCole is regarded as the best centre forward City have produced scored 45 for us in 78 games died at the age of 45 of cancer played 2 seasons for us born in Ireland does that help signed for us in1959 to replace Hughie Baird

    I'm not holding my breath on Gradel. He's turned down a load of clubs in the last couple of years.

    As for wiingers i thought that Rowe was going to sign in January and he's only £250,000

    Don't think we have any wingers atm, maybe we'll sign both. The Saints winger is still development squad, though made the bench yesterday. He has only signed a six month contract.

    I can feel some big disappointments coming on when the January transfer window has come and gone... <ok>

    Nahki Wells looks to be scoring goal for fun for Bradford, if we do get him I guess it depends on how much we have to shell out and if he is any better than what we already have...
