Move Klose 303 Posted February 2, 2009 I dont think its happening, i cant find anything official anywhere, i guess it would have had to have gone through by now as i thought it was only players joining premiership clubs that had the deadline extended.

Minster Canary 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Just watched the Chris Lakey video, and he claimed that the move did not materialise, so that''s that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Desert Fox 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Even if we get him when the window re-opens, that would mean we would have 7 loanees with only five permitted in the squad. So that means we would efefctively always be paying wages for 2 loanees who cant play. Surely, it would be better to spend this moeny actually buting someone who is eligible to play.

Bovril 214 Posted February 2, 2009 and I thought stoke had alot of loans last year! we must surely now hold the record for ''most loans used in one season''?as for the deadline, yep our chance has gone...unfortunately our name is not ''man utd, liverpool, chelsea, arsenal or man city'' therefore deals actually have to be completed by the deadline stipulated.as for the player..a very decent player, shame we couldn''t get him...yet.

Desert Fox 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Barclay King/Cartoon Head,Thanks for that info. Still seems amzing that we could field a team of 7 loanees. Presumably there is nothing to stop us having 11 loanees so long as only 5 come from English clubs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paul ncfc 0 Posted February 3, 2009 Stoke are hoping that they completed the loan signing ofBirmingham full-back Stephen Kelly in time for it to be sanctioned bythe FA.Potters boss Tony Pulis was looking to add a defender to his ranksbefore Monday''s 5pm deadline and made a late swoop for the 25-year-oldIrish international stopper. And, while special dispensation was givento clubs to complete deals after the cut-off time due to the badweather which hit the UK on Monday, it is still unclear if the Pottershave got the green light from the Football Association to complete theswoop. Puliswill wait to find out if he can take Kelly, who has made 88 appearancesfor the Blues and has just recovered from a torn thigh muscle injury,before allowing Andrew Davies to make a loan move to Norwich City.Taken from clubcall.Does this mean if approval is received he will become our player ,(presuming our paperwork was in by 5), or do we wait until the loan window reopens next week?

Didn''t he score twice against us while he was on loan at Derby last year? I remember him as a kid at Boro, he had a big mop of blond hair and the Boro fans used to call him Boris Johnson!If the above is true, I guess the only doubt is whether he will be able to play against Bristol City at the weekend.

Strange how the Davies deal disappeared yesterday having appeared done and dusted. It could explain why we did the swap for Leitjer, as it appeared nonsensical to simply swap one CB for another when we were clearly crying out for reinforcements. Maybe it will materialise today, but I suspect that if not it definitely will next week (or that we at least bring in another CB from somewhere). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paul ncfc 0 Posted February 3, 2009 Yes,according to a friend of mine who supports Derby he did score twice.He seemed to think the lad Davies was a solid performer,but felt he has had too many clubs for there not to be a problem! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
