Summer Transfer Rumour Thread.

In other, equally realistic news, Huddersfield Town have made an offer for Javier Hernandez, because he's only 3rd choice striker at Manchester United.

 

Really though, even though I'm still very sure Sharp won't be leaving, that Google thing is weird.

 

I agree that he is very unlikely to leave, doesn't stop there being truth in the fact that they may have bid for him

 

Forest wouldn't even get the opportunity to talk to Billy anyway. Our response to any bids made for him is likely to be along the lines of "piss off".

 

O'Driscoll comments on Sharp toward the end of this article: http://www.thisisnottingham.co.uk/O...-striker-Cox/story-16665153-detail/story.html

 

Reading into it, you pretty much get "yeah well we tried because why not, but it'll probably go nowhere"

 

Pretty much.

 

Some (desperate) but job on the football rumours site has said for the last three days how we are apparently in for Stoke defender Ryan Shawcross.

As much as I would like this, I think it's obvious it isn't happening. Can't see him dropping from a regular Prem team to a promoted team, also giving up his captaincy on the way...

 

If it's true you can kiss goodbye to the Fair Play League

 

I think if we signed Shawcross he'd probably be captain since deano isn't starting 11 material and he'd take fontes place.

 

Still think within a couple of games Davis will be captain.

 

Davis would make a good captain, maybe Morgan too? I'd say it is between those two and Fonte & Hooiveld at the moment, until we sign a new centre half, of course.

 

Sebastian Boenisch has turned down West Ham as he has "other Premier League offers", I asked Jamie Sanderson of the Metro about it:


" - Stoke are the favourites. Southampton are still after Büttner, but that deal is very complex."

 

Don't know much about him, isn't he a Poland international?

 

Yeah he is. Defender. Plays pretty much anywhere in the back four.

 

Boenisch made his professional debut for Schalke 04 on 11 February 2006. He was substituted on in the 86th minute, in a 7–4 home win against Bayer 04 Leverkusen. His only other appearance that season was in a 2–1 win against RCD Espanyol in the UEFA Cup.

On 1 September 2007, he moved to Werder Bremen.

As of the end of the 2011–12 season, Boenisch is a free agent having let his contract run down and played that poorly during the UEFA Euro 2012 that VfB Stuttgart withdrew their contract offer, citing lack of performance as the reason for their action


Not sure he'll fit in tbh.

 

Jim Lucas has just put on twitter "guess what we are doing today" and a picture of the photograph studio with the lighting and back drop set up. Maybe a new signing?

 

I think we are signing someone today. Jim Lucas just tweeted "Guess what we're doing today" with a pic of where they take photos of the new signings.

 

Damn it! You beat me to it.
