Pre Season Training.

Well it all starts tomorrow.

Will anyone be standing outside the Cottingham training ground to see if there are any new faces.
Heskey?
Coutts?

Who will not be there?
McShane won't be, he's given time of with being at the Europe Cup.
But who else?

Interesting Times!

 

Anderson might be there, Ghilas probably won't be though

 

My local baker has a cousin who knows a pilot, who says that there is a specially chartered flight from Kiev to Humberside overnight.

I'm not saying that the full Spain team are coming, but one or two for sure.

 

Time will tell.

 

It hasn't been too bad without city stuff happening with the euros being on but I'm glad we are back tomorrow. Might sign some players, sell others and hopefully get rid of ghilas

 

Expect things to be cranked up from today.

 

It's taking forever for this Heskey signature to be confirmed!

 

It may never come

++++++++++++++++++++++++

SSp website reports that Kevin Kilbane is training with Coventry City now.

 

Coutts and Guzan are definitely gonna happen as far as i'm aware

 

James Harper gone and Paul Coutts....possibly in is a big improvement already.

Brad Guzan would be an improvement on both Basso and Gulacsi as well.

As things stand now, it seams that we only have One goalkeeper namely Joe Cracknell.

Basso - Gulacsi gone and Oxley and Peet no longer around ?


Calling Vito Calling Vito.

 

Peet has gone, what about McGregor? Much cheaper than Vito

 

I think Vito would be worth his money though. McGregor will have much higher wages that Mannone, and Mannone is younger, could have him a long time.
Not to mention Vito loves the Club, he was almost in tears when we sang his song on the lap around the pitch after the awards ceremony at the KC.

 

But it's £1m that we could spend elsewhere. If I was a manager of a lower end Prem team I'd snap him up but the price is probably a little too steep for us.

 

I agree with this. We need a good young goalie with potential and Vito fits the bill, plus the defence seem confident with him.
Since Bo left we've struggled to find a consistant replacement and it's worth spending a few quid on a settled goalie because they tend to stick around longer than out-field players.

 

We have 2 keepers, inexperienced Cracknell and glass back Oxley, article on the OWS.

Am I right in thinking that someone posted that it's likely the HDM will have Bruce's first interview this week?

 

I heard it was tomorrow, I'll tweet Phil Buckingham and ask.

 

Joel, you are a gent.

 

What's happened to Heskey?
Was he given the day off to unpack his things in Swanland?
