SSN are claiming that we're about to announce the signings of McKenna and Hobbs. But no mention of Adebola. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12874_7010349,00.html
I noticed that, maybe he didn't sign after all and is why it took so long. Also strange that a paper managed to report Jack Hobbs having a medical, but failed to spot Paul McKenna in the same building (assuming that they had the medical at the same time I suppose).
I think the third signing is me.. yes, I've scored 5 goals in 7 seasons, I'm crocked and quite old.. this moved me ahead of Adebola in the pecking order..
I'm available on a free, 6"3 and I'm only 23 years young. And we really do need a goalkeeper. I'll play for £1k a week. Actually, if they offered the position to me, I'd play for nothing.
Respect. I don't think financially I could manage the full season for nothing, but a couple of games yes. I'm rubbish compared to pros but I'd buy a plane ticket at my own expense to pull on an England shirt too if everyone else was sick or injured. That's how it should be. Same for City.
Is there anybody who actually want Adebola to sign? I bet the only person in the world who wants his transfer to go through is Dele Adebola.
Surely NP knows he can do better than Adebola in the loan market even? Hobbs we know, fine, McKenna, yeah ok he's not 'exciting' but we need a player of his type.. Adebola? I won't moan if he's given a year's contract on smallish wages..
you see this is where you let yourself down percy.. there's no reason to say that, it's unfounded and it's old hat.. buy a new hat.
We need a plan B, that's what Dele Adebola is. Our plan B last season was to lose. So at least this is a more positive approach. Besides, he hasn't even signed yet. If he does, let him play before passing judgement. because he might be 36, but so was Dean Windass (who we actually signed from division 2 at the time).
From what i can tell most opinions are split some saying dont want him one bit, others saying rather not but will give him a chance as a squad player
See this is where you let yourself down... because you look like a thick, stupid **** trying to fit in. Unnecessary? Probably, but I didn't bother to read your post, so I'm just imagining what you say, because it's fun that way. Apparently. If we do sign Adebola, I'd imagine it's because Adam Pearson, Nigel Pearson etc. wants him here, otherwise they wouldn't sign him, would they? ****ing hell.
TBH i would like us to sign him would come cheap and would add something we dont have in the squad, an ability to be a handful in the opposition box especially against tiring defence getting into the last 20 minutes or so and allow the likes of Fryatt, Simpson, Stewart and Koren to get a few late goals from him being a nuisance
I'm even smaller :/. A mere 6ft but I'm a left/right back with decentish stamina. I'd play for a measly £2k a week. And I'd actually give a toss about pulling on the shirt...
