Update: Ahly claim to receive official fax from Hull

Who was it that we signed that was allegedly being looked at by Everton, Arsenal, Villa?

 

Superb!

 

Superb!

 

I would guess you're on about Mouyokolo, Arsenal were heavily linked with him.

 

Zayatte?

We were lucky to get him though as he thought he was good enough for all those teams and the Brazil 1970 side.

Anyway it was probably Duffman who started the myth that we pinched him from under the noses of other clubs.

 

I was thinking of him as well. Probably the one, cheers.

 

I always though Mouyokolo was quite good if I'm honest.

 

Mouyokolo was a good defender, I can't believe that in the position Wolves are in he can't get a game for them. We could do worse than sign him.

As for these Egyptians, Gedo would smash this league, he's interesting teams in Holland, Spain, Italy and the PL, so hopefully we are already in full swing with a bid. I didn't think that Fathi looked all that good when he was at Sheff U, but having watched him for Egypt the last few times they've been on he's looked immense, his crossing is almost as good as Elmo's, if not just as good.

 

Mouyokolo was a decent defender, even scored against Chelski for us. Had a couple of long-term injuries since he left us though and I presumed that's why he wasn't getting a look in at Wolves.

 

These two Egyptians could be what Bruce has been keeping quiet.
DJ Campbell could be part of the red herring.

 

I have no idea what they're like or if they're any good, but I'd take 'em.

 

or we could sing carl malcoms hit from 1975 hey fathi bum bum, used to love it when I was a kid and my dad wacked it on the stereo

 

Doesn't a fax carry more legal weight than an email?

(Ricardo probs knows...)

 

"In the 2012 January transfer window, 7 Premier League teams Blackburn, West Brom, Swansea City, Wigan, Everton, Norwich and Wolves were interested in his services but ended up not leaving Ahly, due to the Port Said Stadium disaster..."

Dont you have to fax over bids? I seem to remember that from somewhere. Perhaps they do not accept digital signatures for loans or transfers.

 

Here it doesnt. I had this issue at my last job and I had our legal department look into it and we have passed laws that mean that they carry the same significance.

 

Possible competition from Panathinaikos:

Faxed documents are legal as they are copies of the actual documents, emails do not have the same status.

 

OK

 

Bruce has unearthed some gems over the years...the could be a win-win for both clubs...shop window for them/promotion for us (maybe)
