Yeah agree with that, nice one, I did not realise you were updating this, maybe you could leave a new message when you update so we know when to look again?
Great post Hamps,just shows what a job Mick and Terry have to weed out all the deadwood and build the core of a decent squad.
Great stuff Hampy A rumour that's starting to get some momentum is that we're interested in a dutch attacking Midfielder He goes by the name of Kevin Brands and plays for the recently relegated Willem II Not too sure on how reliable a source or even if he's any good but if he's anything like some of our previous dutch attacking midfielders I'd be happy
Sylvan Ebanks-Blake was seen in Ipswich Town Centre this morning! He obviously wasn't there for the shopping!
*Transfer Rumour* ITFC are set to sign striker Leigh Griffiths from Wolves for a fee of £250k not too sure on the accuracy of this and where it has come from but this wouldn't surprise many due to the 'wolves connection.' At 22 there is potential to improve and he seems to have scored a few for Hibs last season (on loan) netting 23 in 36 games We'll have to wait and see if there is any truth to this one though
Today's new transfer rumour is another Wolves link apparently Mick is working hard to agree a deal for Wolves centre back Roger Johnson This is the same day that we're linked with Kilgallon so clearly (if true) we're after a decent centre half to offer competition
We certainly need another CB, although I'd be surprised if we went for either of these 2 as we already have 2 decent CB's and I'd imagine both of those would be on very good wages. Both were very promising defenders, I really rated Kilgallon at one time but both have had a pretty dire past couple of seasons, although I'd imagine Mick could get them into shape. Like I said though would be surprised if we signed either of them.
Rumour is that July 1st we will be announcing a number of free transfers joining the club.. including Joel Grant and Reece Brown along with possibly one or two others...
*Transfer Rumour* started to do the round on Twitter but not too sure on the reliability of the source but we can hope... 'Chopra is in talks with Wolves & Sheffield Wednesday' neither would surprise me and I imagine we wouldn't be asking for much if anything in terms of a fee so maybe a potential for him to be out the door
JWM to become a Norwich fan will have to wait a couple of decades to get a season ticket if he gets his name down we will have forgiven him his past by then!
