    When we first got them we left them completely free range but that was a mistake as we border a forest and the foxes had easy pickings - now we restrict the to the orchard and the foxes have to come much closer to us and sheep , horses etc which puts them off - I just have to remember to close up at night or I would lose the lot

    All this talk of vermin, I thought I'd dreamt last week's Play-off Final result.

    Cox plus 2.5m might be worth considering!

    I think United will need to spend a lot of the Ronaldo money on Young to pacify the fans ;)

    Given that Dasani is at the centre of most of our negotiations, it could quite possibly be the second most we get for a player this summer.

    Which would be fine, were it not for the fact that he is openly touting the entire squad.

    Watford want Walsall starlets Will Grigg (striker, 19)and Darryl Westlake (defender, 20) for around £350,000 - £375,000
    And hope former Walsall stars Troy Deeney and Rene Gilmartin who joined Watford last summer from Walsall will persuade them to join the Hornets

    I'm not suggesting that Deeney is a bad player. He may well prove to be worth what we paid for him. But we certainly paid at least the going rate, if not a bit more. I'd be wary before going back to Walsall with another few hundred grand. There is probably better value to be had elsewhere.

    Hmm - not a bad return on Bas Inni's investment of £440 000 or whatever it was - and within a few short weeks too.

    Or indeed Glasgow Rangers - who are the front runners according to local media up here.

    Certainly whatever we paid for Gilmartin seems rash, considering he was hardly played this season and when he was, he didn't exactly instill confidence...

    Troy has been very unlucky this season , many other payers would have thrown their teddies out the cot! the lad has a very good work ethic and a great attitude, He will come good! Gilmarten likewise has been crucified for one error! He has been working hard in the local community and has the same attitude as Troy! Just saying give the lad a proper chance, before condemning him the WFC management must have seen something in them!!
