    Just been down to Clayton Wood with the kids. Plenty of fans there but not much happening. Just before we left, the club doctor, the physio, Scholes and Rudgie all left in two cars. I wonder where they're going, or who they're going to see...

    Extremely disappointed, unless there are genuine rabbits to be pulled from the hat,
    I do not believe that we ever have a coherent strategy going into a window. We seem to be the only club who has no idea as to what a players likely demands are going to be, meaning we waste weeks chasing players that we have no hope of signing.
    By all means, don't pay over the odds, but do a little research first.
    I still stiock by my line of a few days ago - we will actually sign nobody.



    Re the above - this is what I posted several days ago. How I hate to be proved right.
    If you want to witness a clear example of how not to do things, contact Tony Scholes, and Tony Pulis.
    We really will be looking at signing squad fillers, nothing more.
    If I operated in such a haphazard manner as Mr Scoles and Pulis have done with regard to this transfer window, I would be down at the Labour Exchange tomorrow.
    KTF!

    Somethings got to be wrong with stoke wage structure if everybody in the prem league and championship is signing players except us. Why didn't we have a sniff at beckford, surely he'd prefer prem football than living off curry in the championship. I suspect Redknapp is going to stall the palacious/crotch/defoe/jenas deal and at last minute demand huth be thrown in.:steam: :steam: :emoticon-0107-sweat:emoticon-0107-sweat

    BBC Radio Stoke understand that Jenas is currently having talks with Stoke City at the club's Clayton Wood training ground.

    and

    Sky report that according to Spurs, Crouch is on his way to Stoke and that Stoke is his only choice.

    So, Crouch, Palacios, Jenas and Jerome doesn't look too bad if it all comes off.

    Erm, there seems to be a lot of traffic on here as my laptop keeps crashing. Hopefully this will only post once:

    It appears that Radio Stoke made a cock up and got Jermaine Jenas and Cameron Jerome muddled up!!

    Fuk Jerome off! If our whole transfer window has come down to him, I have even less faith in TcP than I did before - If that is fookin possible!

    Crouch on his way up to Stoke for talks. He set off at midday. Sky Sports News saying it's Stoke or nobody.

    Crouch has agreed terms. He still needs to sort out his loyalty bonus before he can have his medical. Jerome close to signing. I reckon we're waiting to see if Crouch signs before announcing Palacios.

    Stoke's ESPN correspondent and a journo from The Sun says we could try for Wayne Bridge on a loan deal.

    Club photographer has arrived. Raced down through the car park. Photo for the web for Crouch? #SCFC

    Looks like Crouch's signature is imminent. Lots of movement now. Keep me informed if you hear anything. Great atmosphere down here #SCFC


    Talk from The Sun and the BBC that we're trying to get Tim Cahill!!

    Impressed with the names flying around so far - looks like it could finish as Palacios/ Crouch/ Jerome/ Cahill.

    If we signed those how amazing would this night be????? TP may be seen in a new light y all of us at the end of tonight!
