Yeah apart from the Roger Johnson rumour nothing else has really been talked about this week, on here let alone in newspapers. I hope everything is still happening quietly behind the scenes.

Getting back on topic, I think I love the shirt even more then I did when watching the video. It''s quality. I didn''t realise the shirt is slim fitting, (I got a large) and it reminds me very much of Roma''s tight fitted shirts with the big logo and sponsor. But I love it, great job to everyone involved.

I''ve been supporting City since 1998. 1. Player - Tough one, we''ve had some real shit in the past. Probably Fotheringham, but I''ll add Jamie Cureton too to be different. 2. Goal - Can''t think of any specifically apart from any goal by Danny Haynes against us. 3. Match you''ve been to - 1 - 7. Second was probably when we lost to QPR the last game before Grant got sacked. Terrible performance and everyone looked grim. 4. Manager - Roeder, easy. 5. Captain - Fotheringham. 6. Kit - Probably the 1997-1999 Colmans shirt.

I really, really cannot see him either joining us or even him being valued that low. I''d love it to be true, though.

Star and Express have also mentioned it, so it might be true. I know a Huddersfield fan who raves about him and I watched one of their games last season and he was very impressive. He is a similar type of player to Bennett, though.

I think it''s a load of bull to be honest. The Star reported it quite a few weeks ago and nothing has happened, and I doubt Lambert would want him.

You can only have 2 long term loans from the Premier League, but we can sign more from foreign countries. Obviously Lambo has ruled out foreign players so that has closed that door. I''d be slightly underwhelmed to sign De Laet on loan, mainly as we can only have two loan players, and we could sign better players then him on loan. By all means, he would be a good addition to the squad and a permanent buy for De Laet I''d be happy with, but loanees can play a big part next season.

I looked at the end few fixtures and I nearly had a heart attack! But anything can happen with Lambert in charge.

That combilation looks absolutely class, the goals against Oldham, Southampton and Walsall at the end is class. Welcome Elliot.

[quote user="Anderz"]I prefer to look at Jackson''s goal as a moment of brilliance on both Fox and Jackson''s part, rather than a defensive error of a player who a) was on loan, and b) was playing for a Club that didn''t really have much to play for at that stage of the season. In addition, De Laet was also part of the defence that limited us to just the one (definitive) goal that night. I guess it all depends upon how you view the proverbial half full/half empty cup... [/quote] You say that but then if he can''t handle abit of brilliance from us, how will he handle the top teams in this league?

Can''t be worse then Capello, at least Redknapp will make us play better football.

I''d be happy with a big sell on clause to let him go.

Reading certain internet news stories about West Hams rejected offer, they apparently want £4 million for him, in my eyes, is a bargain. I was going to mention it a few days ago. I don''t think anyone would say it was a bad signing to be honest. Only negative is his wages might be quite high.

Oops, accidentally put the f word instead of fact. It''s already been a long day...

He is a quality player. Swiss players have the right mentality to play in England and the fuck that Swiss more then matched England last week and beat Spain in the World Cup show just how good they actually are. I was going to say, I know he isn''t the tallest (6ft I believe) but he is quick, has good positioning and has a very good tackle. With them skills he more then makes up for his lack of height. £1.5 million is a bargain. I think McNally just saying "no" is trying to not attract attention to this rumour, personally.

Thanks for that Harry.

When will the shirts be sent if you have pre ordered them?

I''d be happy to have Ruddy in goal next season. BUT I think we should get someone to give him competition, and not the two youngsters. We need a solid back up who could easily take Ruddy''s spot if he ever dips form.

At least we are looking at slightly higher calibre players, but he has been at Everton all his career I think and I doubt he would join us.

I seriously hope this is a load of tosh. I''ve stated in the past how rubbish the guy is and he is one of the reasons Leeds play terrible long ball stuff. Don''t do it Lambo!

I think both Whitbread and Barnett are capable at playing at this level on a consistent basis, but in midfield I question whether Crofts and Surman are good enough to play consistently in the Prem. Centre mid is the area we need to target first in my opinion.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1393264/Norwich-set-beat-Everton-Wigan-QPR-3m-Craig-Mackail-Smith.html A handy buy for £3 million. Hopefully we are only targetting one more striker and we can now concrentrate on other areas aka a centre back and two midfielders.

Out of the lot I would only have Long, even if he didn''t feature much. The rest aren''t good enough for the Premiership. It was just down to lack of service he didn''t feature much today. I do think we could sign him and compete with the big clubs for him.

17th.

Christ sorry Kiwi mate it''s not like I used text speak. I ment that if I was a supporter of a top 6 club I would want Swansea to go up due to them playing the closest thing for a long time to "total football", which was so effective for the Dutch side of yester year. And I had a very hard self inflicted night last night so that''s why I accidently said Reading was in Wales. [;)]
