I am still FL championship standard even now. In saying that i would not have missed the Jelavic and Hernandez chances @ Lesta last season. That is for sure.

Nice profit for Ipswich Town on the Mings deal. Bought for £10,000 Selling for £8m. Maybe Liverpool will offer both Lambert and Borini to Villa as part of any Benteke deal ? Bent eke has said he wont sign a new deal with Villa and will run it down if he has to.
Good business for us............ a decent fee that for him, but an important player for Blackburn i guess.
We sold him too cheap, but at least now we've got a total fee of £1.25m, which isn't a disaster. Personally, I'd have kept him, I think he's better than Quinn.
BBC Northampton sign sacked Leicester goalkeeper Football Posted at12:45 Northampton Town have agreed a two-year deal with goalkeeper Adam Smith, who was recently sacked by Leicester City for his part in a racist sex video.

Agreed and agreed. It's essentially a £1.25m fee for a player with 6 months on his contract who had shown a lot of promise but never managed to perform consistently and hold down a first team place. It's a good fee given the circumstances, though I do think we'd have been better off with him than the money he's earned us.
I think he was unlucky really, he got that really bad injury while he was getting a run in the team and he never really got the chance to get back in. He seems to be getting younger... please log in to view this image
