So it looks like it's Odubajo and Gray, or neither. I like this. Since the players will know each other, they'll link up much better and perhaps Gray will settle in quicker and start scoring much earlier. No mention I can find of this supposed 21-day waiting period, so I'm still convinced it's a bollocks twitter rumour.
Not superstitious or anything, but the last time in my recollection we bought 2 players from the same team in the same deal, City went into a purple patch.
Ken Houghton & Ian Butler in 64-65. I have a good feeling about these two potential signings. Let it happen.

Would you count Huddlestone and Livermore? Since essentially we had them both at the same time.

Not really, it was a mini-purple patch...the other was much longer lived. Mind you, they were playing with Chilton & Wagstaff.
PS. I think they were signed on the same day from Rotherham
 
It makes so much sense that it's hard to think we came up with it. I know we like to talk up Phelan but perhaps he is having an influence?

Odubajo also knows Hayden from England U20 and Gray knows Clucas from England C a couple years ago.
Good friends if you go of the regular Twitter interaction between them
 
Do you people know what consternation you cause?

Merge ALL threads into one, irrespective of topic.

I cannot believe the mess this forum is in. I go away to tidy up some sand dunes and return to find chaos and anarchy. The forum is awash with OCD sufferers and yet people create new threads with no regard for others in a way similar to how chavs propagate - with no concern or thought for the future or for those whose lives they are wrecking. People, please THINK before you create a thread, and then don't. Tack your thoughts onto the end of an existing thread.
Good of you to find time to reply this to this thread. I'm sure you are busy arranging your Mum's ornaments in their display cabinet, then you'll have to put her CDs back into alphabetical order after that.

I thought the papers were saying 1.5 would get him. Reading the thread it's a guy saying he heard from his friend, which is probably just as legit as Vern's boys girl at the KC store.

Uh and it was 105 here today, not as bad as the 108 it was yesterday but still pretty hot. I got no idea what that is in your Celsius thingy.

QPR are rumoured to have bid £1.6m already.
 
I don't know if anyone's read the HDM story today but it looks like they know absolutely sod all. It's all guess work and rehashing other stories.
 
Assuming the stories are correct and we're signing Hayden to play defensive midfield, is there really any point in taking a risk with Palacios?

The signing is definitely happening by the way, he's in Hull now.
 
If we can sign the 3 main players that we're apparently after, Grey, Odubajo & Bentley, we'll have a very decent looking Championship squad.

What we'd need next is a number 10, a koren type player, as currently we have no really creative player who can link midfield to attack through the centre and that is what we lacked last season.

Providing we keep our other players likeElmo.
