Couldn't agree more, on both, Cookie. Unfortunately as mentioned above there's a blip with Odoi and the rumours are that Newcastle are going to pounce on Hanley. Why can't life with Fulham be simple?
One that slipped under the radar - literally, and in ever sense since he's been swooped up by Sheffield United. He being Jack O'Connell a 22yr old centre back from Brentford. please log in to view this image We were apparently interested in the scouser but didn't follow it through. Big lad, but a small fee (£300k ish).
There is talent at Brentford choices in order Jake Bidwell Maxime Colin Alan Judge first 2 proven full backs third speedy winger How much the lot no more than 6 / 8 mil surely that is not going to break the bank,
Could be a good news weekend. Dutch papers are saying Denis Odoi has chosen us over Gent and will be signing today (or tomorrow).

Again the deal(s) expected to be done over the next two days. please log in to view this image The 25yr old joined Cardiff from Millwall and has 1 year left on his contract. Last season he played in 36 League games (5 of them as sub). The only issue seems to be consistency; plays a blinder one week and a mare the next. A confirmed LB, which is presumably why we're going for him - with Odoi at RB.
One we should be watching is Tavernier of Rangers who has stalled on a new contract Right pacy full back 24 who scored 15 last season
Reports on Twitter saying Odoi has signed sealed and delivered just waiting for conformation on the official site. Secondly Faurlin is on trial after being released by QPR, my Rangers mate is distraught he can't believe they have retained Henry but let Faurlin go, he is a big fan. Faurlin obviously had the bad knee injury a few seasons ago but before that he was quality. Thirdly the rumours of Richards being swapped for Malone would be solid I have never rated Jazz where as Malone I was suggesting as a potential signing when he was still at Millwall has always caught my eye when I have seen him play.
Faurlin was definitely at the match today so I expect that one to go through. Good signing if he can stay fit.
As you'll recall we had a hot and cold affair with Kevin MacDonald of Wolves last summer transfer window, I banged my drum for him then and have regularly bemoaned us not signing him since. And ... now, we are yet again being listed as going for him. Never say never, so a massive yes please!
Apparently the deal for McDonald is just about done, fee agreed and talks at an advanced stage with the player. This one seems to have came from nowhere and happened quite quick, I know we were interested in him last season but the first i had heard of our interest this year was from Cottagers post above. Surely not, a fulham transfer without any problems????
According to today's Sun we've had a bid rejected for Derby's defensive midfielder Jeff Hendrick please log in to view this image Now that would be a seriously good transfer and not only because the 24yr old had a great Euro 2016 with Ireland.
Not looking good. We apparently had a £3m bid turned down and now The Mirror are saying that Derby have rejected a £3.5m bid from Burnley.
As much as I'd love that one to happen, I can't for the life of me see us pulling this one off. There will be Premier League clubs sniffing about.
Apparently Tom Delaney has a 4m euros release clause in his contract. You'd have thought, if we were serious we'd get right in there. Source: http://www.haberz.net/spor-haberler...serdar-azizden-sonra-delaney-savasi-7864.html
Anyone else getting nervous at how quiet things have gone??? I was hoping for three in this week..... Odoi, Macdonald and Malone and was sure Odoi was going to be confirmed yesterday. If it's another quiet day I will become a little worried. Let's get those three in, Bamford on Loan and give Blackburn the £5 million they want for Hanley and get on with the season. Simples.
An hour or so ago the latest from MP is that Scott Malone of Cardiff will be having a medical there.. Anyone know anything about him
"The 25yr old joined Cardiff from Millwall and has 1 year left on his contract. Last season he played in 36 League games (5 of them as sub). The only issue seems to be consistency; plays a blinder one week and a mare the next. A confirmed LB, which is presumably why we're going for him - with Odoi at RB."
Bidwell has signed for QPR last week and I also would have preferred him but I also like Malone. Malone doesn't seemed to be liked by Cardiff fans though he did start 31 games in a team who narrowly missed the play offs. When he was at Millwall a few seasons ago he impressed me on the occasions I saw him, I remember mentioning at the time that Malone and Lee Martin would be the only two players that would interest me from Millwall.
Here we go again. According to the local paper Sheffield Wednesday have picked up on the fact that MacDonald could be available and "thrown their hand in". Source: http://www.getwestlondon.co.uk/spor...ulham-face-fight-sheffield-wednesday-11602172 Interesting that they point out, when we failed to get MacDonald last summer we plumped for Matilla as the fall back.
