harewood gonna be training with barnsley as from monday andy giddings just said on football heaven

Good, after watching last Saturday he would be a waste of wages when we already have COG. Still think we need the spine of the team signing CB Berra (Wolves)/CM Elliot (Bristol City)/CF LeFondre (Reading).

Le fondere will never sign

It took 3 month to sign antonio from reading.wud take all season to sign alf.it wont appen

God I hope not Berra......he's useless!

I agree with the spine comment to a degree we could do with another CB but it's not essential, however the players listed no thanx !

Harewood to sign one year deal with us after hat trick against kilmarnock

Harewood has rejected offer and will sign for Barnsley

Marlon hardwood to train with barnsley as of Monday

Is this a p**n star?

His cousin, Alan Plywood has been handed a one year deal at United.

He's a versatile left-back - kicks a ball but can also refurbish the changing rooms.

Bit of a plank

I nearly died from reading this post ! Having it on back of shirt first thing !

He failed a drug test. They found traces of MDFA in his blood.

earlier i posted that jay bothroyd had signed; following feedback from this site i checked with my source and told the following:

bothroyd has been offered a deal; but he's said to be considering his options.

the striker alluded to in paul walker's tweet is in fact magaye gueye. dave jones was at goodison yesterday to agree the deal, and watched him during the olympics. everton have offered a contract to michael owen and are hopeful of completing that deal soon. when everton sign a striker magaye will move to hillsborough.

Lets hope your right

Yeah this sounds about right

Owen signing for stoke.

Sorry but does nt work for me.

This is wide of mark.

Im sure DJ wont go to everton to talk a deal out, would use a thing called a phone dont know if u have heard of one?

false info im affraid, Neil Harris from southend is believed to be on the cards at hillsborough 250k plus COG, BARGIN!!!!!

rumours off glenn whelan coming back to migthy owls after stoke completed the transfer of micheal knightly from wolves..uto!

Michael Kightly is a wing player where as Glenn Whelan is more central so i can't really understand that

Absolute waffle! No chance

Not a chance! Plus Kightly is a winger and Whelan is a centre mid, so how could Kightly coming in push out a player from a different position?

Yeah! Now they've signed a winger they can offload a central midfielder! YIPEEE! No mate, not going to happen. Why can't you guys let go of players who played for us 5 - 10 years ago! Whelan, Brunt, Kenwyne... gees!! WHELAN WILL NOT SIGN!!

DJ interviewed by Paul Walker earlier said a deal in place with a player but the team we are getting him from won't close the deal until they find a replacement. Source Paul Walker on Twitter. Any Ideas?

See my post below re Jay Bothroyd. My source is at the club and I hadn't seen the tweet from Paul Walker, so it makes me more confident that the info I was given is correct. UTO!

Your post below was written after PW interview also Boothroyd they just want to offload did not even go on pre season tour. So post makes no sense.

Or there is the distinct possibility that it could be someone else

I hear the lad we have agreed a fee for is from everton aged 21 from Senegal

Its got to be bothroyd as bellamy has signed, ie the club wont let the striker sign until another takes his place, ie bellamy in and jay out etc.. uto

Bothroyd play's for QPR, Bellamys signed for Cardiff!

So Ambrose as moved back to Palace and Bothroyd as gone back to Cardiff, now they are trying to sell them both again, its happening quite a bit these days, strange.

What are you on? Bothroyd is at QPR! This site has some serious head cases on it now! Codswallop!

Quite clearly if we have agreed a fee for a player and they are loking for replacement it is not a Premiership Club. It will most likely be a Championship or Scottish Premier side as Jones wants proven performers at Championship level. Have to agree the level of common sense/nouse applied to comments on here as gone down rapidly. Check facts, read what Jones and Mandaric have said, look at Jones buying record where he acquires players from, does he stock teams with players from former clubs?

Sheffield Wednesday have agreed a deal to sign Jay Bothroyd from QPR. However, the deal cannot be completed until QPR find a replacement.

Second bid expected for Hearts defender Ryan McGowan, with the Owls hopeful a compromise fee of £500,000 can be agreed.

Qpr currently have around 6/7 strikers so doubt try new to find a replacement. So doubt it will be bothroyd

DJ said the link to Ryan McGowan is a load of BS

I wouldn't say no to Bothroyd.......in a footballing sense, of course, lol!

Yea but how many managers say there not intrested and then announce they have signed them

10 Aug 2012 11:40:05
we desperately need a qualitly striker..anyone heard of any coming in?

No. But i'm sure we'd all like it to be before Saturday. The team needs to be together from the off.

Dj and mm know what there doing. people just need to be patient

Wednesday have had a bid of 300,000 knocked back for hearts and australlia centre back Ryan McGovern and hearts say they won't double that be a good signing but we need to offer about 600,000

I know we need to be patient but as the first commenter said..we need they in the season starts!

We have made an offer for Bothroyd

I think the answer to your question is Harewood...like it or not

We dont need a defender we need a attacking midfieler or striker

We still have until the end of the month until the window closes - plenty of time yet

Here is a list of strikers who could be available
mccormack
maynard
mackail-smith
jackson
gueye
bothroyd
any other ideas

Orlanda Sa is the person who is in talks about a move to the massive but he has choice of us Blackburn an wolves

He's already moved to a club in Cyprus

Signed for a Cypriot first division side, think Limassol.

Massive need to bring in top flight players we need play offs at least ?

I love it when a rumour is posted and then gets shot down instantly LOL
