Transfer rumours !

I read it as well. Tom Hopkinson is the source, which is a change from Alan Nixon.

@reluctantnicko: Marvin Sordell. Burnley tomorrow. 500k. Medical and signing.

So if true that would be a 3 mill loss ....  he is not given a chance here but Burnley thinks he is good enough for the Prem .... another fine piece of business by BWFC

Do you think it's as simple as give him a chance and he'll perform? Or do you think there's a little more to it than that?

I think we will never know the full story but the biggest culprit is Owen Coyle. Why spend so much on a player and then never use him? That probably didn't do much for Sordell's confidence. Then when he seemed to be coming good under Dougie he falls out of favour and is shipped off on loan and replaced by Cavies. Doesn't make sense to me.

Could he still hack it in the championship?

Brucie could still find the net more times than Beckford at his age.

Sign him up Dougie!

Is that Mick the prick?

Shame on you KP. It's the one and only BF. 

Would anyone take a punt on Samaras, if the money was right of course.

Currently a free agent after being released by Celtic.

Interesting. Might be worth a punt.

It looks more like this guy than Brucie...

Is it a real picture BB or just a morph?

True,but he lacks the flair of Brucie. 

That's two strikes now, KP.

Be careful.....

Its a real photo of Brucie playing for Jimmy Tarbuck's XI in Blackpool in 1965.

Well done, Breadman - I was just finishing reading the thread to tell KP that he was on two strikes... those exact words!

Moritz is looking at a possible move to Cypriot side APOEL.

I went to a Cypriot league game once on holiday the fans are mental. Ground packed hours before the game, I think it was Limassol v Apoel.

Some players need a run in the side to get confidence and touch.  Sordell did not get that IMO.  If there is more to it than we shall never know.
Burnely think he is worth a punt.....based on the rumors of course.  It's like the club can't wait to get rid of this lad and yet we are short on strikers and he is already paid for.  If you say he didn't perform then nobody else did either especially at the start of the season when he had a few games.

It appears that we are currently now looking at Dean Moxey after Dougie's attempt at securing free agent Jonathan Parr has failed.

Huddersfield & Sheffield Wednesday are battling it out to sign Bolton midfielder Keith Andrews. Who will the winner be? Bolton Wanderers!
