Thanks Ed. It seems strange if bellemy has been in Glasgow a few times. I think Man city would be keen to get him out of the country.Scotland would be their preferred location for him. Just my opinion! so here's hoping.I realise some fellow tims are unsure whether he should come back but I still think he would be the best player in the SPL if he returned.Older,wiser and maybe a tad slower.Still great. {Ed007's Note - I'm not too keen on the thought TBH, never have been.}

30 Aug 2011 22:50:10
Hi ed new to the site.just wat do you know about bellamy returning ?dont think we him tbh {Ed007's Note - I don't think we need him either, and welcome to the site mate. Post down the page explains what I know re Bellamy.}

Why would use not take bellamy back? he is a great player with great experience. if we get bellamy an a cb we will win the lge

30 Aug 2011 23:01:34
I'll be glad when its this time tomorrow & uncertainty is over....I need to know Kayal is defo staying.

30 Aug 2011 22:50:04
Hi ed. Why do you say there is a slim chance of bellemy. Have you heard something we haven't ? Or is it just speculation? {Ed007's Note - CFC made contact with Man City again days ago. They have been in contact with the player for weeks and he has been in Glasgow at least three times recently. He was in the process of negotiating with City to buy out his contract and was prepared to take a slight drop in wages to join LFC. Cardiff are not impressed because he refused to drop wages to join them and now that Spurs are also interested, City are not keen to negotiate his release to see him join another EPL team. I am not saying a deal will happen, but it quite possibly could.}

30 Aug 2011 22:47:09
Hi ed. Was big Trez the big name signing?? I thought it might of been tevez on loan me self lol... Am abit disappointed that we didn't get baba so it will be interesting to see who do we go for now. I hope to Christ we get rid of samaras al drag him to Sunderland me self . What did we pay for him from man city and what time dose the transfer window close in Scotland? Bigirishmac {Ed007's Note - 23.00 the window closes BIM. We paid between£2/3 million for Samaras, Man City paid £6 million for him!}

30 Aug 2011 22:30:23
villa in for ki u heard anything on this ed {Ed007's Note - No.}

30 Aug 2011 22:28:12
Ed......Is there a chance that Skippy might be coming back during this transfer window? I reaaly hope so!

ChrisBhoy {Ed007's Note - I really hope not Chris.}

30 Aug 2011 20:32:53
Pretty obvious that the baba diawara deal got pulled because samaras refused to talk to either sunderland or st. Etienne!
I my humble opinion!
Any take on it Ed?
MistahMan {Ed007's Note - It was problem with his visa that came to light before NL et al went to the SFA today for the Bangura hearing.}

STV "understand" that no attempt at a VISa was made. Hard to see what the issue wouldve been based on the ease with which we got the other one. i think theposter is right. We needed Sammi cash. I couldnt see us with 5 strikers (not even counting Rasmussen) but if Sammi and Maloney went we'd have just 3 including the new boy. Its a pity because IMO he looked like the sort of player we needed. Tall, strong and good in the air. Bangura seems another smaler type. Timewill tell but hope its not a mistake. We still beed a bigger striker imo. Heres hoping the other two go and we have someone else up our sleeves or that we can resurrect it. surely we didnt bother with trips to Portugal, negotiations etc without first having an idea on the visa ront. Cant see it.

The other one was because he passed the criteria Diawarra wouldnt have and would not have been passed on appeal....The Scottish FA?��Ǩ�Ѣs rules on work permit endorsements follow the same guidelines as previously outlined by the Home Office. For the SFA to give their approval, the player in question must have played 75 per cent of his nation?��Ǩ�Ѣs competitive games ?��Ǩ��� excluding friendlies ?��Ǩ��� in the two years prior to the date of application.

I don't know what has happened but I do know that Samaras travelled to Sunderland this morning.

Celtic were told only one application for a player for the same position would be successfully processed..it was a case of who Lenny wanted most out of the two...

30 Aug 2011 19:59:15
Big spending Russians Anzhi Makhachkala look favourites to sign highly rated Celtic midfielder Ki Sung Yueng

Ki will not be sold this transfer window end of and if at all most likely at the end of the season but I hope not. 2 years down the line he will be worth a quite few bob

I disagree. With money as tight as it is in Scotland and forwards a priority I would take any bid over six million for Ki. He has never turned in a 6 million plus performance for us in all the time he has been at the club.

The bhoy is developing into a very accomplished midfielder. I've got no doubts he's worth atleast 6mil. if we keep him then he'll be the main CM 4a few years, however yoy can't blame the board for taking the money. Let him go next year and bring back Jaurez?

Richybhoy

Lennon wants to win the league and will not let Ki go before a replacement is here. Celtic are only letting fringe player go this window.

Great point about jaurez, we shouldnt have let him go, infact with spanish footy in the state its in ive heard we may well get hm back. as the team havent paid him since he arrived there. true guys. check it out yourselves. i think we never seen the best of efrain at all.

Juarez is a mainly a RB can play as a Defensive midfielder and cannot speak a word of English and reports are has not interest in learning English. The truth is Celtic want as near to ��3m for him as they can but there was little interest for him.

Oh I've heard otherwise the new striker was brought in to appease fans,board thought sammy,baloney,McCourt,ki,kayal were leaving but they're still negotiating,Sam(refused)baloney(going)McCourt,ki and kayal lenny doesn't want to lose but McCourt and kayal want to leave...

30 Aug 2011 19:42:53
hi guys I got told tonight that the deal for bianchi is back on with us bidding nearly 4 million, don't know how.much.truth is in this so just passing it on.

hail hail

Marco1888

We were getting him for less than ��1.5M in July why pay ��4M now I think its is codwhallop

30 Aug 2011 19:29:22
Hooper is not going anywhere! He has came out and said he wants to stay and win more trophies. So why would he be going to QPR? Let that be an end to it!

RM

MORE trophys ? to take the total up to 2 ?

Got to laugh at this post,more trophies,,,if him and his team mates dont keep choking,lmao

30 Aug 2011 19:23:09
Cant see Celtic goin for Diawara anyway unless they get rid of Samaras or Rasmussen.

Drew

You could be right. The break down of the Diawara transfer reported by STV came around the same time as Samaras rejected a transfer to St. Etienne.

Diawara is a visa situation 100% stop speculating

Not speculating. Just dont think we'll bring another striker in until we get at least 1 off the books. Got Rasmussen sittin in the stand pickin up a wage for nothing and then you have Samaras who had his chance and will never cut it at Celtic.

Drew

The tried to get Trezeguet after signing Bangura and still on the look for a tall striker, Baba is a few month shy of Portuguese passport having been at the club for nearly 5 years. Rasmussen not going to get a chance Lennon does not rate him and ive seen them train a few times and he doenst look all that good TBH Samaras is a good squad player and I want him to go because he doesnt deserve half of what is being said about him, there are bigger imposters at Celtic than him.

I hate that NL has said Samaras is an enigma the enigma for me is why is he still here.MACCA

30 Aug 2011 19:09:21
QPR and WBA linked to Ridgewell, although Birmingham have rejected his transfer request.

30 Aug 2011 19:05:10
Ed, can you confirm that the Baba deal is definately off? Only STV are reporting that it is. Nothing official from Celtic or anything being reported on SkySports or BBC. If there is still an outside chance of this deal happening then i say we give it a good shot and getting it done before tomorrows closure. IF the deal was indeed worth £4mil then surely they won't have given up that easy? Unless they have someone else in mind?

TrampsPants {Ed007's Note - All I know is that CFC never asked for an SFA endorsement for Diawara today, I suppose they could do that tomorrow though if needed. As you say, it is only STV who are carrying the story, so far.}

Ed, What are the rules on signing and registering a player subject to visa etc. A poster on another thread suggested the player is entitled to apply for a Portugurese passport as he's been there for 5 years. Another said it was a French once due to his coutry links to France. Either way, were this true could Celtic or anone else hypothetically do the deal and sort that in the coming days? IMO its that celtic have cooled their interest given the didnt even ask SFA for an endorsement. Still think Samaras deal was the key {Ed001's Note - players can be signed and registered, the visa only applies to the players eligibility to actually play for the club. They can still be signed and loaned out to other teams for instance, like Ryo Myaichi went out on loan from Arsenal.}

Tnanks ed, heres hoping theres another twist then. Not making any judgement on the new striker we bought but based on his profile ho doesnt look the typre of player we urgently needed. any thoughts anyone?

Just need to give the bhoy a chance see what he can do never know he could end up a prolific scorer like a larsson lets just see what happens hail hail

30 Aug 2011 18:50:37
Ed: Any news on us signing either Michael Bradley or a strange one today is Farid El Allagui from Falkirk is what I'm hearing?
Cheers.
DF {Ed007's Note - No.}

I bloody hope its not El Algui. I've been to a few Falkirm games this season (Dad & Uncle are Season ticket holders) and despite his goals he is absolute gash. No pace, no control..no anything except a huge heed. I hope to god this is a wind up.

TrampsPants

Ive nor seen him play but a few of my mates say he knows where the net is, do a job!

The guy from falkirk is brutal can score goals but no control, passing is awful and gets caught offside more than skippy did

You guys think you can get ridgewell to celtic park, you'd be lucky if you get him
from Falkirk!!
Celtic think they're a team, but they've lost the league to g.rangers 3 years in a row!
I'm a blues fan and Liam will never go to spl!!

30 Aug 2011 18:38:15
Hi ed I heard Celtic are looking at bendtner on a season long loan as Sammy is defiantly away to either sunderland or leicster Celtic to confirm 2morro lenny is looking at a couple of centre backs but only Going to get one (my source Anthony stoke as I stay near him in broxburn) hail hail

Absolutley no interest in Bendtner from Celtic. Stoke are the team showing an interest and they're wanting to buy him so that would blow Celtic out of the water anyway. No more lies please.

And stokes both knows all celtics targets and tells you about them?
If so he should be shown the door you clown

30 Aug 2011 18:29:28
AWRITE ED looks like samaras is nocking back 2 bids celtic fans dont want him so wot does everybody think about that I know wit i would do put him in the reserves and he will want out to move then and also sell him for £2 million instead of 3 that could solve all celtic fans problem with him!!

Sadly there are no reserves in Scottish Football

David

30 Aug 2011 18:25:05
Ssn breaking news: Liam ridgewell hands in transfer request! Hopefully Celtic bound!

30 Aug 2011 18:15:53
Why on SSN when they talk of Celtic's in/out is Craig Gordon & Bellamy's name there ?

Its because thats who we have been linked with. you'll see on other teams pages it's the same, a screen pops up with interest/bid etc

30 Aug 2011 17:52:57
Just heard wee Shaun is currently in talks with wigan.
Sunderland deny sammy bid! Oh well at least some dead wood out the door

30 Aug 2011 17:35:50
Linked with iaquinta of juventus for 8m?  can't be true surely

MG69

No it can't absolute rubbish. We can all dream tho

30 Aug 2011 17:20:19
SSN - Sunderland bid £10m for Crouch. Looks like Sammy to Sunderland is a no go ten, damn!

30 Aug 2011 17:17:03
Whats the latest on sion situation is it not today we find out {Ed007's Note - There was meant to be a hearing today, but it didn't go ahead as far as I know.}

How wiz wan ae the guys it the meetin no reggied in tyme ur sumthin?
fae possos ansur tae sep bluttired,hee haw

WTF mate are you ok.shouldnae mix yer script with alcomaholic eh.... {Ed007's Note - LMAO}

30 Aug 2011 17:11:48
diawarra wil sign in january, he cant get a visa until then

Diawarra wil sign in january, he cant get a visa until then

according to stvs sources celtic didnt apply for a visa they just cooled there interest and went for bangoura

I heard celtic thought he had a french passport thats why they7u didnt apply for a visa but turned out he didnt have one he will be here in january

It was definitely to do with a passport he apparently held a French or Belgian passport then prompting a VISA Celtic knew they would not get clearance for a VISA so did not apply. People saying Celtic cooled their interest because of Mohamed Bangura are way off as a deal had been made before it had been announced we were in for Baba.

30 Aug 2011 16:56:13
Word on the street is Arsenal Striker Nicklas Bendtner is in Glasgow today and signing a one year loan with Celtic

30 Aug 2011 16:52:50
Hi ed 1st time post here my name is **** ******** from glasgow my dad knows a good source from celtic and he told us that celtic are signing ebanks blake or yakubu {Ed007's Note - Welcome to the site, you don't have to give your real name, I would advise against it in fact.}

Hi, just make up a nickname for yourself and then when you post use it, it lets all the regulars interact better with you, if they agree or not with what you have to say LOL timalloy

Just try n keep away from that timalloy, as far as am aware he is trouble lol ;), well that's what ed said anyway lol

Cumby Bhoy {Ed007's Note - Evening Cumby, it's Tim's jokes, they are worse than atrocious!}

Haha ave seen some they aren't to bad sometimes lol, remember our discussion a few weeks ago regarding Bellamy, about him coming I still stand by that, I think he will be a hoops player, looked at the rankers page they are all at sorts at losing jelly belly potentially lol so good reading tbh, and on our signing today with bangora I think he will shine in our league, looks strong and composed too, am a happy Bhoy so far, got bit of business in early doors I think Lenny means business!!

Cumby bhoy

I'd take either of those 2 actually, although with Bangera in now who would be dropped for them?

I'm assuming starting 2 will be Hooper and Bangera (who should be match fit seeing as he has been playing in Sweden for a couple of months already this season). We really would need to move Sami on afore getting another in IMO. Was hoping the big name was going to be a CB, not Trezeguet.

JD

30 Aug 2011 16:50:51
supposedly the big name wiz trezeguet typical pish from the bbc

GunnieBhoy

30 Aug 2011 16:41:06
First time post, not saying i have heard this but just a thought bbc saying we are being linked with big name. i have just been watching ssn and it is saying several clubs are interested in Yossi Benayoun could this be a possibility.

30 Aug 2011 16:39:45
ED how you doing? Any news on Liam Ridgewell situation? Could do a good job for us either at left back or centre half.

RM {Ed007's Note - Not heard him being mentioned.}

30 Aug 2011 16:30:27
Dixon is crap, i hope i never see this guy in a Celtic shirt, he is not good enough to wear the jersey, like some of the players we have at the moment that need to be shifted, not good enough
quality costs money, and its quality we need not quantity

Paul dixon is the best crosser of the ball in the spl. Hooper and stokes could do with some decent crosses. Have u seen Ki's deliveries??

Not Cr*p. He is a good crosser and a decent defender would do as cover and is still young enough to improve

David

I think you mean cha du ri's deliveries and not Ki's :P

Dixon can cross a ball to be fair, good back up to Izzy and Charlie Bhoy.

30 Aug 2011 16:22:54
Got to laugh at these posts. The same time every transfer window we are linked with a 'big name' signing. Never ever happens. Dixon probably going to be the only other signing. A few to leave thankfully. (What do you think ED, take a guess at who else we won't be signing?) {Ed007's Note - It is the BBC that are touting the 'big name' story. I think Dixon will be brought in though.}

Bbc just reported we missed out on trezuget. Could he have been big signing

30 Aug 2011 16:19:38
Good to see Bangura signed, but cannot understand the Diwara deal stalling on visa issues, I believe he has more caps than Bangura so if one gets work permit, why cannot both? Timalloy

30 Aug 2011 16:13:18
Very pleased about the Bangura lad, think he will do a job for us. But I really hope we sign a centre half, If lenny sticks with colamity dan, we wont come close. The 4million quoted for diawara should now be put towards getting a decent centre half and the lad Dixon.

RM

30 Aug 2011 16:08:13
Posted last night. Bangura had his medical last night. I'll try and find out if there are any more planned for today.

Is that you Dom,spot on mate good shout on Bangura.MACCA

30 Aug 2011 16:00:09
man city today stated they were not willing to settle with a deal for c.bellemys last year o it look like he'll be sitting on the bench. Again putting us nowhere near the guy at all. So it cant be Craig. {Ed007's Note - Bellamy had instigated talks with Man City about buying out his contract and he was willing to drop his wage demands to join LFC (much to Cardiff's dismay, as he said he wouldn't drop wages to join them), when Spurs entered the race it looks as if City stalled on the contract buy out. CFC are still interested in Bellamy after making contact with City again.}

30 Aug 2011 15:36:31
Macheda from Man utd on loan fergie needs him loaned out but has no intention of giving him to a fellow EPL team. Makes sense. {Ed007's Note - AF has no problem loaning players to other EPL teams, Welbeck, Cleverley for example, so how does that make sense? Newcastle and Sunderland are both interested in Kiko.}

Plus every loan deal usually includes a clause that the player cant play against the club who owns him. Wot a moron!

30 Aug 2011 15:26:12
wigan just signed a spanish winger so think thats it for Shauns chances of going down there. chris Mac (from bbc) has me intrigued tho who could it be?? I'd be happy if we just get someone at the back.

30 Aug 2011 15:14:02
ed see if we get bellamy whos position will he be taken you think {Ed007's Note - He could play as a winger......}

If we get bellamy he would take anybodys place hes far better than anybody we have at the moment

Agree, bellamy, regardless of injuries is head and shoulders above everything at CP right now

30 Aug 2011 14:57:17
Baba Diawara not coming to celtic in this transfer window due to visa issues. However not to say he wont come in january... back to the drawing board... {Ed007's Note - CFC never asked the SFA for an endorsement on Diawara.}

Was it just a smoke screen then, whats the point in that?

Heard we will make two more signings.lets hope so

bristolcelt

30 Aug 2011 14:32:28
Celtic have announced the signing of striker Mohamed Bangura from AIK Stockholm on a four-year contract. BBC SPORT

Why do certain people from the dark side feel the urge to click the unbelievable button just because they cant accept confirmed news {Ed007's Note - Jealousy is a very underestimated emotion. I will be absolutely astounded if Rangers sign anyone else.}

Excellent news this boy looks Strong, fast and has the approval of the king of kings!

Jinky

Welcome to the Celtic Family Bang Bang! If he gets the Henrik Seal of Approval, he'll do for me:)

30 Aug 2011 14:08:01
AIK Stockholm have confirmed the sale of Mohamed Bangura to Celtic hours after it was in the Scottish press that the player has had his work permit granted! I, for one, am excited about this boy!

Greg

30 Aug 2011 13:30:56
Ed. are celtic looking to sign bangura and diawara. surely a decent CB is needed.

markybhoy {Ed007's Note - They are hoping to sign both of them, Bangura has had his work permit endorsed by the SFA after a personal appearance by a CFC delegation earlier. The Diawara deal is still on but has stalled over something. I don't think a CB will be brought in.}

Cover for Izzy will be done either Paul dixon or Ridgewell is possible.

I really wanted the other striker and they will rush through a work permitt if he has a french passport

30 Aug 2011 13:16:12
Ed - anything realistic on a CB coming in? {Ed007's Note - Not really, more a chance of Paul Dixon coming in.}

Makes sense Ed as Mulgrew looks a great CB (in fact all round player) this season. Dixon deal would be a good one to give cover until Izzy's back.

Neither Celtic nor AIK have commented on whether a fee has been agreed for the player but the Swedish club have called a press conference for 2pm UK time to announce "changes to their squad".

Can't believe for one second we'd get 3mil for freddy mercury no chance,2mil for baloney maybe with epl more money than sense,can't believe papers printed about as much chance as a snowball in hell...is there any truth to these rumours ed.?.?.?.cos I know for a fact no o e is coming in unless people leave. {Ed007's Note - It seems that there is some truth in the rumours.}

How do you know for a fact? Are you on the Parkhead board?

You know as much as the next guy ya trumpet your just assuming

30 Aug 2011 11:21:20
baba looks set to sign for celtic for a fee believed to be 4m.... why couldnt we put extra 500k ontop of that and got long? unreal but hope this bhoy will do the buisness and looks like its a straight battle between celtic and blackburn for mohammed bangura but is likely to join celtic after having spoke to henrik larsson..... were looking good now up front i would also take the 8m for ki and get a defender and an attacking midfielder with the money and sign forster for 2m permanantly.....anybody agree?

I'd imagine Long would get way better wages with WBA

Were spending 4 million on a striker? ffs would buy two capeable back-ups and watch stokes and hooper bag 20 each

Ki separates our style of football from Rangers, he makes us pass the ball. Must keep him!

Long was 6.5 milion with add on's total fee thought to be 8 million . This out out of our range. Baba will be around 2million . 4 is wide of the mark !

I dont think we had the money then but if we sell sammy and maloney then the money and wages are there for him. Agree we NEED to keep Ki. He's a class player and as good as Petrov ever was for us.

Ki is an amazing talent and we must keep him, different class from most of our other players, and lennon wasn't wrong when he claimed he is a ten million pound player. Hopefully two in today and at least two out

Junglebhoy33

Forster is not good enough to be Celtic goalkeeper, for someone his size he has no presence in the box and Seeing him come for a cross is terrifying he's that bad at it. get him back to Newcastle and give zaluska a real chance!

No way are we signing a4mill player no chance,if we are getting offered 8mil for ki we should sell he is agood player but not that good.rather see a qaulity centre half and back up striker...

No chance! Ki is not the finished article yet, give it another couple of seasons and he will be worth double that!

It makes me laugh that people think Stokes is good, well I admit he is good sometimes but against a good side he is very average because you can score goals against a poor scottish premier side does not make you a good player. Andy Walker scored 30 odd in one season but he was just an ok player but in Europe he was pish.

Keep a hold of ki. He worth mare than 8 million.

Because you can score goals against a poor scottish premier side does not make you a good player

We wont do much in europe so i see no problem in having someone who WILL score in the spl

I agree. I would sell Ki for 8m if we could get.
He does not link the play. Kayal is the playmaker in our midfield and Ki should be.
I agree also we need a Centre Half badly.
The only thing i would not agree with is pay 2m for FF. Dont rate the keeper. Must be better out there than him.

30 Aug 2011 10:48:28
Heard there is two medicals booked for today. Bangura and diawara?

Hi ed, do you know how long it would take FIFA or uefa to decide if the hoops will be reinstated I've seen a decision today then I've read it could take a week or two due to appeals and judgements, do you know any info?
Also I see that the striker were after diawara has a price of 3-4 million surley if were signing him then some players have to be sold, I.e sammy and maloney? Thank god. Now just to get rid of big dan. Cheers

robbhoy

I wont take 2-3 weeks the first games are on the 15th september it will be decided today ... tuesday

30 Aug 2011 10:01:07
No Decision on Sion FC to be made today (source BBC Scotland). Looks like this will be a long protracted affair and although the outcome is still likely they wil be thrown out of the group stage, it could happen too late for Celtic to be invited to fulfill the fixtures. Very much in the balance but not looking so promising for Celtic.

30 Aug 2011 08:57:22
would absolutely love to see the back of samaras and maloney but cant see us getting 2 mill for wee sean and 3 mill for samaras - surely these teams have seen them play, would be lucky to get 1 mill for both they are hopeless. Any body else concerned we have not been linked with any centre halves ,a blind man running for his life in the dark can see that the ones we have are not up to it (kelvin wilson looks decent but thats it).

I actually think that Shaun has been ok in parts since coming back but has been unlucky with injuries etc. the lack of a reserve league means that players now have to get match fit in public, which means that their underpar performances are seen by all. To a lesser extent I think Sammy has also suffered in this way as sitting on the bench means that he has lost sharpness (which is mostly waht he is missing)

David

Just quick observation why would it matter if it was dark if the guy was blind! Sorry just saying

30 Aug 2011 08:13:26
Celtic look to be selling Samaras and Maloney today for a combined £4m to Sunderland and Wigan. Good bit of business I think. Hope it all comes off. Hope we can use the money to sign the two new strikers and manage to keep hold of Hooper

30 Aug 2011 07:36:45
3 million for samaras worst player in spl and yous are getting 3 million for him the best bit of business yous have done this summer a wouldn't pay 3p

30 Aug 2011 05:15:08
rumor states that celtic rejected a £8mil offer from rubin kazan for Ki ? wit r they hinkin man

Think there are three teams interested (2 russians & an EPL).

Lets face it if Baba & Bangura are as good as they're getting made out to be they'd have been snapped up by now. I fear a proven goal scorer like Hooper will be sold and bringing in young disexpererinced players. we needed experence last season an lost the legue because of it. we need it this year.

Aye just like kayal, ki and izzy were wanted by other clubs

I seem to remember a certain guy called larsson who nobody wanted,the rest is history, so if we do sign theese players then give em a chance and get ryt behind them scottybhoy

Everyone is going on about never heard of them and they wont be good.

Before they signed for Celtic had anyone heard of Beram Kayal, Izaguirre, Nakamura, Petrov and i could go on and on !

Seriously, disexpererinced, wtf, must be a new word, i think you mean inexperienced, lol.

Just watched the both of them on utube, i know its not accurate but Baba looks a powerfull striker thats scores a lot of goals in the air something we badly need, and bang looks a good finisher too. End of the day if it means no plate smasher that will do me. HAIL HAIL

Every transfer window is the same, we run around at the end panic buying. If we wanted Bangura or Diawara that much, why didn't we sign them 2 months ago? We will be linked with a hell of alot of players from now until wednesday night and I doubt we will sign anyone to be honest. I hope I'm wrong though. Bangura will end up going to Blackburn and have we even bid for Diawara? We've got 2 days left and we badly need a striker and someone to partner Kelvin Wilson. Get the finger out Lawwell and show ambition for once. The fans have backed Lenny since day 1, It's time the board backed him aswell.
