Transfer rumours !

Only just realised we're skint Bread?

Nope, been well aware of that fact for a while.

Just struggling to get excited at the prospect of some bloke who hasn't kicked a ball for ages and who may or may not be prone to breaking down (a la Stuart Holden) after five minutes.

Sounds like a bit of a gamble with what little money we do have to me....

(Although anybody who has pulled on the famous Wilmington Hammerheads shirt has got to be a quality addition to any team.)

Murray scored against some Americans the other day so I'm guessing he's off his deathbed.

As I said after Juke fell through -aAnybody we sign now is going to be a gamble. 

We can't afford proven championship quality, we can't even afford proven league 1 quality. So we either take a punt on a player going through a rough patch (Murray) and hope we can get him back to his best. Or we gamble on an unknown foreigner, which we seemed to be trying with Modou but got priced out when he looked good on trial with us.

The likes of Murray are as exciting as it's going to get Im afraid.

Well I reckon if Pulis is thinking Gayle and Campbell are gonna be the main strikers and Murray at 31 wants to play week in week out we could get him for £500-000 with a bit of bartering.We got Sordells money and at the end of the day the guy is proven at this level.Fuck me he scored 30 goals for Palace.
What's the most a striker has scored in anyone season in the last decade 12.
A week on Saturday we play Watford and we have 2 strikers.Its a no brainier if we can get him for1/2 a million.IF the twats hold out for a million then fuck it.weve paid Barclays so we have no debt.Also we have no strikers (of any note) anyway.

I don't ever recall Tony Pulis doing us any favours so I hope Dougie has another alternative lined up - although I still don't get the obsession with getting a big front man that Dougie seems to have his heart set on. Sure Murray could do a decent job for us if he stays fit but not convinced he's "the answer" and at 31 we might end up reliving the final years of SKD.

Murray isn't 'big front man' type striker, more of a traditional 9 than a target man.

We also might get a striker who gets us 20 plus goals Wander n if the defence stays solid who knows where that may lead us.Its a chance of course but time is running out and a guy who got 30 goals definitely could do better than Beckford 7 last season n Craig Davies well he was on loan did he even get 1?We have the Sordell £600-000 now we only need 400-000 n we have just leveled off with Barclays.Tick tok Tick tok!

From the games I've seen him play, he looks like a goal poacher something we haven't really had for years. I know he's been injured he's worth a punt I reckon.

Murray and mason will be our front two IMO

Murray will score goals, if Freedman fails here he should resign.

Stop trying to be Nat, it's boring.

I've just watched seven minutes of him banging 'em in for Palace on YouTube and he looks decent.

If you take the shit load of penalties out, he scored the majority of his goals from around the edge of the six-yard box from crosses fired in from the by-line.

Have we got pacy wingers to do this for him?

If we do sign him and if he's fit enough to play and if he stays fit, he could be our elusive twenty goal man if we can get the supply line sorted.

But there's a lot of ifs in that statement.

Not as boring as little old you, do you wanna come out with me to get some slags?

Limp dick.

To be honest I'll be surprised if we do manage to sign him. Palace will want close to a million and have no real reason to sell he's not exactly taking up massive wages and he's under contract. I'd also be surprised if nobody else comes in for him, we'll see but it's a long way to go before it's worth debating his merits in the first team IMO.

Dragging down, how about go fuck yourself or put me on ignore?

Your choice limp dick.

It'd have to be a loan move, surely?

Nixon's saying permanent move but I'd probably favour a loan to be fair. Again it's what Palace want though!

Either way I reckon he would be a good signing, I reckon it will be a loan though he may think he can force his way back at palace if he does well
