  1. For those that haven''t seen it:

    DORRANS LATEST

    More on Burnley’s pursuit of West Brom midfielder Graham Dorrans: Sky Sources understand that the £3m bid made for Dorrans by Burnley is significantly less than that. West Brom are reluctant to sell to a relegation threatened rival and they would prefer to do business with Norwich, who are also interested in the player.

  2. Is it just me or have there been much less interviews with Alex Neil / Players since he arrived at the club.

    Usually there''d be multiple interviews & a 5 to 6 minute chat with the manager about last weekends game, injuries... etc before the game but nothing at all this week. (unless I''ve missed it)

    Is this how it will be, AN starting to put his stamp on things?

  3. Looks like Hoilett is on about 50k a week so maybe he won''t be an option after all!

    I was also surprised that the lad is 24! Seems like he''s been around forever, plus he''s bloody quick which something we lack, well we lack pace all over the pitch really with the exception of Olsson, Redmond & maybe Jerome.

    Kris Commons is a good shout, but it seems Lennon tried to poach him at Bolton & the move was rejected by Celtic.

  4. I''ve had a look at their forum, oddly enough you have to sign up to do so. They seem confident of getting something from the game with most predicting & being happy with a draw. But they seem to have a fair share of people who think we are more than likely to ''tonk'' them 3 or 4 nil!

    Quite a mixed bag reading through the pre-match thread.

  5. I''m glad the issue has been resolved, and I think this is a Win - Win situation as some others have suggested.

    Good that the manager is sorting his ''pack'' out & deciding who is worth keeping & who should be discarded.

    I''m really liking what I see & hear from Alex Neil at the moment & there is an air of excitement about this season again for me.

  6. We already have Bassong, so if he wants to play for us I''d pick him every time. He''s younger, fitter & left footed which is a rarity in a CB.

    Plus Huth is not immune to getting himself in trouble either, maybe this is why Stoke want rid:

  7. I''ve looked at the tweets & I don''t think he''s moaning, he just seems desperate to play which is understandable.

    Mar Bunn seems like someone who actually wants to play football rather than sit on his arse collecting his wages, maybe the club can sort a loan move for him or move him on if they feel Rudd is now indeed our No.2.

  8. I met Phil Mulryne, Iwan Roberts, Paul McVeigh & a few others in Delaney''s. The current manager I was working for at the time was Irish so we spent a lot of time in there after work and all of our staff parties subsequently were there also. Often saw players in there but never really found the courage to go & talk to them, until my drunk manager befriended them & I was introduced on a night out. Shook Phil Mulryne''s hand had a quick chat but then got a bit star struck so I made a quick exit back to the safety of the group I was with. :)

    Whilst working at HMV I served quite a few players, Paul McVeigh, Leon McKenzie, Peter Crouch, Craig Fleming & Darren Huckerby. I got Huckerby to sign a copy of Championship Manager 4 for me, which I still have today. :)

    Brian McGovern also came into HMV & bought a games console, but was a bit of a twat and shouted at one of the staff because she didn''t know about the console bundle he was buying.

    Also met Malky Mackay & Craig Fleming in a pub, think it was the Hog in Armour, they were playing darts.

    I saw Mattias Jonson & Thomas Helveg wandering around the city centre during the day, but didn''t get a chance to say hi to them.

  9. Tough one to call, I think if the shoe was on the other foot, we would be a bit disappointed that we didn''t get it. But I truly cannot see clearly what happens there, it does look like the player just runs in to Hooiveld, but all a bit clumsy to work out who was at fault.
