gchase1 Graham Chase Stoke's Carl Dickinson is having a medical at Watford in the morning. £500k fee agreed. #SCFC This guy is a journo up in the NW, and sounds very matter-of-fact with this post! This was posted late last night so a possible announcement today?
Rumour is certainly gathering pace - but £500K! Have we got that sort of cash to spend on a transfer - and would have thought the wages would be a stumbling block too.
It does seem a lot for 1 player who has spent most of his career out on loan... But I can't see him being on a huge amount as he was never a regular at Stoke. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Dickinson But I would suggest deals like the Iwelumo one, where we may have saved more money than was expected, have allowed us to do 1 or 2 deals like this (am also thinking Vokes if Dyche does pull that one off as well)
Well done to the Academy; wfcbadgemoose Watford FC Official RT @grlawson: #WatfordFC juniors win @MilkCup2011 Vase trophy final 2-0 vs #PlymouthArgyle. #HarefieldAcademy is the future of WFC
No, no, you are definitely wrong there. We have already been informed by reliable sources that Bassini has in fact pocketed most of the transfer money, hence the "low quality" signings...
Oops I forgot this fact! Sorry! Obviously this 'rumour' is all lies... or we have swapped a few players, the whole Vic Road end and Doris the tea lady for him!
That's alright, it it easy to forget this *fact*... On a serious note, looks to be a very good player. Stoke seem to rate him.
I suspect someone is just collating all the rumours rather than actually knowing, but would love all this to happen over the next couple of days; 29 Jul 2011 10:03:52 Watford are poised to sign Carl Dickinson from Stoke, Sam Vokes from Wolves, Tom James from Straford Town and Andi Weimann on loan from Aston Villa.
Saw this on Twitter; @wafordFC @watfordfcfans @T_Deeney @Sords_20 tried 2 get tix for west ham and not allowed cuz haven't been 2 enough home games! RT 4 support No sympathy for the guy.... But seems they are being pretty strict on who they are selling the tickets to, so as long as Watford fans don't but tickets for any WHU fans, shouldn't be anyone in Watford ends!!
Interesting to see it is a 3 year deal, as opposed to the 2 years that now seems to be common!? Excellent news though!! Would love to see Sam Vokes come in now as well. Based on what has been said, it would also be good to see Tom James signed.
Now now BBW - don't be greedy! That would mean we'd have gone from 0 left backs to 3 left backs in the space of a few weeks!
Good to see we have added a bit of much needed physicality to the side as well!! With the likes of Taylor, Dickinson, Eustace, Yeates and Iwelumo!! Does it suggest a rough and tough style of football?!
