Nice to see so much movement on transfers, happy with most as well, think Ward and Fielding are the best of the bunch.
Looking at the Premier League released list, who does anyone think would be worth a punt? I know the majority are unrealistic financially and wouldn't want to come, but at a glance I reckon:
Mark Randall, Javan Vidal, Abdoulaye Meite, Giles Barnes, Jon Spector, Steven Caldwell, Dan de Ridder, Jason Koumas... not exactly inspiring but potentially realistic i think, we wouldn't be getting people like Pantsil, Kamara, Garrido.
Koumas is getting on but has been class in the Championship before, Barnes linked with Forest today, I always liked him as a player he probably wouldn't wanna come back I guess. Think De Ridder would be worth a shout. There's a few youngsters I don't really know much about, Randall, Vidal I've heard of, could be a few decent ones coming out of teams like City/Chelsea you would have thought.

Just think it makes more sense financially then spending a mill (rumoured) in transfer fees for Shackell, when we could have maybe offered Meite/Caldwell or someone a deal. I only say that cos I think Shackell is a bit expensive if he did cost that much.
We really need George Burley back to control transfers and pull some more Idiakez/Rasiak signings out of the bag!
