Transfer Rumours Summer 2024 transfer thread

[Brucebones]

Ray Parlour was in 2007 I think wasn’t he?

I remember watching the Romford Pele for us, brilliant player, helped us stay up the season before we got promoted to the premier league the season after.

Really? I just remembered it as during the Joyce era, but memory’s not great at details!

Emlyn Hughes was a pretty big star before he came to us.

 

[Tony Angelino]

Do you reckon he talks to his wife in the same manner he does to us??

“dinner is on the table” ….no it isnt, it’s in your hand as you walk to the table….lets spend 3 hours on why im right & you are wrong…..

Is it dinner or tea though

Emlyn Hughes was a pretty big star before he came to us.

Had just been sacked as Rotherham manager when he joined us.

Nah we was in the new stadium

 

[Cityzen]

Way back it was probably Raich Carter followed by Neil Franklin and Stanley Mortensen.

26,000 turned up for Franklin’s debut for the reserves.

 

[hutton tiger]

We had David Rocastle, Ray Parlour & Ian Ormondroyd in the 90’s too, Peter Barnes in the 80’s!

Peter Barnes was worth the admission price on his own

Only played a few games but Ray Parlour was a class act and showed what being a true professional was all about. Do you remember Tim Lovejoy saying “Oh, it’s only Parlour” just before he unleashed a 30 yard screamer to put Arsenal ahead against Chelsea in the FA Cup Final?

Billy Bremner
David Rocastle

I was just about to put Bremner out there, well done lads, dont forget the reuniting of smash and grab as well Bannister and Warboys

Yepp, good player.. Definitely helped to keep us up that season 06/07...Recall Birmingham, top of the league, under Brucie, coming to ours and Parlour running the show. Seem to recall Nicky Forster getting one or a brace in 2-0 win. Another excellent player for us..very underrated.

I used to polish Bruce Bannister's brass candlesticks for bob-a-job.

**** me. I hope that's not a euphemism.

Social services informed, just in case.

The moaners are trying to think of a - a reason to moan about this signing and b - find something else to moan about now the signing ball is rolling..... Give it time

18 out (about to become 19) v 1 in.
2 weeks 3 days left.
Will that do?

 

[Frank Fingers]

I'm assuming everyone is avoiding the Hately in the room.

Barmby?

It was Carter that popped in my head immediately though.

17 days is a long time in football, especially in the transfer window

 

[Tony Angelino]

Rocastle was different gravy as I remember, parlour was good aswell, just don’t think he had 90 mins left in him

Anymore gossip ht2

 

[oozkan]

I’d love a signing such as this, bit like when we got Okocha, who was the first one?

Did Okocha played for Hull? Watched him when he was young and at Fenerbahce, what a dribbler.
