We Will start With the Weird and then Ill go On to the not so weird.... Nicky Maynard will re-sign for Bristol City for 1.2 Million plus add on's, will rise to 1.6 million Thats as weird as it gets, Now on to some more realistic Rumors * Neil Warnock seems to have had an initial approach for Jon Stead rebuffed. Stead is said to be interested in joining Warnocks new regime at Leeds and favours a switch back to his home county of Yorkshire. Reports indicate Leeds will have to meet a seven figure valuation set by Bristol City. (Hope this isn't true) * Leeds, Ipswich and Bristol City are targeting transfer listed striker Steve Davies after the 24 year old striker rejected a new 3 year deal. It is thought that Leeds have bidded 1 million * Bristol City are rumoured to be interested in signing Cheltenham Right back Sido Jombati after the portuguese player has had a marvellous first season in Gloucestershire, picking up the player of the year award. He is a attacking minded, quick and composed right back and would provide great competition to Rickie Foster. Would cost around 200K * Derby will sign ex-leicster striker Darius Vassell following his release, and derby lose the chase to sign dixon and bristol city beat them to it. Also, as matt oakley has departed lcfc, he will consider a player-coach role to kick-start his new career. Derby, Barnsley, Charlton are intrested * Ryan McGivern to sign for Bristol City on season loan from Manchester City * Mustapha Carayol to join Bristol City for £350k * Leeds are heavily linked with Free agents Aaron Wilbraham and David Connolly. Connolly, 34, and Wilbraham, 32, were both released by Southampton and Norwich respectively. Warnock is also still continuously linked with Bristol City front man Jon Stead. * Ian Black and Rudi Skacel looking likely to sign, expect all signings to be Hearts/Hibs/Motherwell/St Johnstone/Dundee Utd due to managers links Also............ Bristol City Ins: Paul Dixon - Dundee united - free Micheal Jacobs - Northampton -£850k Francisco Sandaza - St Johnstone -Free Andre Amougou - Burnley - had a succesful loan spell Murray Davidson - St johnstone - Not sure if this will happen Suso Santana- Hearts Mustapha Carayol - rovers want 1mil but i dont think city will pay it marlon pack - cheltenham - waiting for playoffs to finish they may agree a fee Mcincess being linked with all of these.., HEARD THIS FROM RELIABLE SOURCES
There is stuff on the rumours board from a couple of Derby fans both saying that we have beaten them to the signature for Paul Dixon

23 May 2012 21:05:16 Young Lithuanian forward Callum Diegutis is set to be joining Bristol City. The 20 year old has scored 24 goals in 13 games as his side Ekranas Panevezys have stormed to the top of the A Lyga. Bristol City's assistant manager Tony Docherty was spotted meeting the striker early this morning.
Wize - that rumours board has linked us with about 50 players now!! A question - would anyone from Bristol recognise Callum Diegutis and would anyone from Lithuania recognise Tony Docherty???
Had a quick google and he doesn't actually exist or play for them That Velicka that we had on loan until he crocked himself after 15mins does though.
Thank's for the updates lads,it just shows,shinys thread is creating interest and The Rumour Site is a load of dogs dodahs.....
I bet we will sign mostly Jocks, or perhaps overseas players currently in jockland, and we will have to change our name Bristol McCity!
Bristol McCity?! Then maybe our slogan can be, You just got battered! when we beat a team Saying that it now makes me want a King Rib supper
Sounds like Swansea have made some sort of informal contact about Albie - every player has his price - what should we hold out for - £2.5m/£3m plus Dobbie? While I have enjoyed watchingAlbie, we could play Bolasie in that position??
