    Simpson only played well consistenly with Aluko. Just one of those things - some players gel better then others.

    You're right about Koren, he might do knack all at times but then unlock a defence with a pin point pass. But that's just the nature of the game.
    Some fans need to realise players are going to lose possession, get tackled, make poor passes during every game - no player is perfect.
    Koren is going through a tough phase but he'll come good again before the season's out.

    The signing of Boyd would see Koren resigned to the bench.

    Trust me, I'm a doctor.

    I think we desperately need someone who can attack with urgency and pick a pass at the right time. We're so **** on the counter it's unbelievable. We only ever score from crosses, never down the middle. I reckon Boyd could be the perfect player to do that. He's a busy ****er but he's also skillful and composed.

    He said Campbell was coming and a deal was agreed...

    Also that fee he quoted was a loan fee while Cardiff signed him permanently.

    So with all respect Hutch, your source was miles off.

    You can't trust these sources anyway, I spoke to someone high up at the club who knows exactly what's going on and he assured me the Egyptians were not coming, it was all media nonsense etc. and it turned out to be nonsense on his part.

    Yes, but weren't you suspicious when his bow-tie started spinning and he tripped over his ridiculously long shoes?

    Pretty sure it was deliberate. The club are bloody watertight at the moment.

    Deal almost done at 600k were my words then a later thread stating campbells dad being a tit and trying to get a better deal all true, the fact him.joining cardiff on a perm and that he could of posdibly joined us on loan is irrelevant. bore off istplt

    Hutch, to be fair, what you stated was closer than anyone else came, and, to be quite honest, anything could have happened, after all it was Fraizer Campbell we were talking about!

    No need to get all sensitive.

    Bruce said he never wanted to come here so we didn't even make them an offer. You're making out like you're 'in the know' but the only bit of info you've shared before turned out to be totally wrong. You can't be surprised when someone pulls you up on all the dick waving going on.

    Really hope we sign Boyd, I think he's exactly what we need so I hope your source is right this time. But you can't expect universal respect for this source until he gets a few right.

    To be honest any speculation of new signings is interesting, well it is to me anyway. Dazzer and Lambo have been quite good in the past, not sure whether they get any snippets now though as I think, at least in Lambo's case, that most of their previous contacts have been forcibly removed from the KC :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Agreed, it's interesting to hear and discuss these things whether they turn out to be true or not.

    MD means something completely different here.

    And he was joking about being a doctor.

    He used to do my hair when I was a wee boy. Even after we moved up North, my Dad still drove to Hull to get his hair done there as he was a Bransholme lad.

    The only friggin hair cut he knew was a short back and sides!!

    I'd welcome a replacement for koren who has lost his touch. He's sluggish and lacks the creativity now. I'm not saying he's useless but hes past his best

    Really? I think if anything he's improved in his time with us. Players of his style that don't rely on pace tend to be just as good even at his age, I mean look at Lampard, arguably been best these last couple of seasons, Gerrard and Xavi to name but 2 more. Think Koren has plenty left in him yet.

    Anyone going to the training ground today? Surely it will be conclusive if Boyd is at Cottingham!
