Transfer Rumours 2016/17 City Transfer Thread

[Bengals Tiger]

Naturally, I was taking the piss, but thinking back, for a ‘friendly’ tournament, whilst I obviously accept it didn't carry prestige, Le Tournoi was actually pretty good and I'd suggest 'heavyweight'.

You used to get those sort of things back then (I remember an American equivalent pre 94 with us, them, Brazil and Germany). Didn’t we have some sort of mini tournament in 1995 too? These warm up tournaments seem to have been made obsolete by the Confederations Cup.

Anyway, we had some good games in Le Tournoi:


Beat Italy 2-0

Beat France 1-0

Lost to Brazil 1-0.

Plus, you had that free kick: Brazil v France.

I remember being in Bass House and everyone in there literally* just shat their pants as it went in





*not literally

Illiterately?

 

[Fez]

that's keep us as a yo yo club

We did a yo, we've just done another, so we are now a yo yo club, but time will tell if that's how we keep going.

 

[ellewoods]

I dont suppose we are going to sign anyone soon?

 

[Steven Toast]

He scored one of the best goals I saw at the KC Green, unfortunately it was only against Leigh RMI in the Autoglass vans or something if I remember rightly, actually scratch that think it was against Morecambe. One of the two.

Leigh have never been in the league so it must've been Morcambe.

 

[Steven Toast]

I dont suppose we are going to sign anyone soon?

Nah.

 

[ellewoods]

Nah.

Smart, very smart.

 

[GLP]

Good grief man no. We need to hit at least 150 pages before anything of substance materialises

 

[AlRawdah]

We played Leigh RMI in the 2001/2 Associate Members Cup. It was a period when higher placed Conference sides entered alongside lower league sides.

Was played at Boothferry Park though.

Oh fair one. I remember playing Morecambe a few years back in the FA Cup, I thought that's what it was. Was Stuart Green even here in 2001?

Remember Green signing for Palace just because Taylor wanted his daughter nearby? I wonder how much of that goes on in football?

And what about Danny Webb? Didn't he sign him for a similar reason?

 

[Plum]

Does anyone else think Powell will be going to Portugal to try and prove his fitness? With Bruce staying I would have thought he would be given a chance?

As far as I know he's now out of contract so he's not ours (or anybody's) to take anywhere.

In which case he's allowed to come with us if he wants? On trial, like Palacios last year.

I guess so, I don't know how these things work. Imagine,

SB: Fancy a fortnight in Portugal?
NP: Who's paying?
SB: We'll pick up the bus fare and hotel, you do the rest.
NP: Do I have to clean my own boots?
SB: Well, ok bus fare, hotel and boot cleaning, how about that?

and so on...

You are by far the worst wum we've ever had on here, no wit, no humour, just tedious ****e.

Up your game, or **** off, there's a good chap.

According to Squawka, Bobadilla got 10 in 34 last season, majority in the Europa League. Seems like a big target-man, could be the sort of striker we need to partner Abel

Just so Smog understands you correctly, may I point out that by "worst wum" you mean 'crappest' 'most boring' etc...

 

[SydneyTiger14]

Great, another foreign striker that Bruce has likely never seen play.

 

[originallambrettaman]

He looks more like a body builder than a striker, the last one's quite good though...
