Raymond De Waard 0 Posted July 26, 2010 Have just been informed that we are in talks with Bradley Orr from Bristol City and that talks are at an advanced stage. We have had a bid accepted, which i was told is a good price for a good player due to him only having a year left on his contract.Think this guy plays as a right back - so makes alot of sense! I''ve just had a look on skysports.com and it says on there that he is set to leave Bristol City but doesn''t say who too though?Hope my source isn''t having me on - didn''t seem to be!

When Saturday Comes 0 Posted July 26, 2010 Personally I think you''ve read the link below and are putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with a rumour. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11688_6279942,00.htmlGood solid Championship right-back though so would be happy with it.

Raymond De Waard 0 Posted July 26, 2010 If my source is correct and BBC are correct then it''s between us and QPR. I''d be happy to see him join us. We''ll see what happens...........My source has probably made me look a mug though! LOL! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Montgomery Bumpkin 0 Posted July 26, 2010 Does your source come from Yarmouth? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,317 Posted July 26, 2010 To be fair to RDW none of those reports have anything concrete about him moving to QPR so quite why everyone is being so dismissive i don''t know. Not sure why anyone would bother putting any info on here these days as all you get is a load of grief for it. Its quite possible that QPR were lining up a deal for him but we have matched the fee and he has had talks with both of us. Its quite possible he will move to QPR. It is also possible, however, that he may be signing for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJP 79 Posted July 26, 2010 [quote user="Beauseant"]We have a perfectly good right back.[/quote]Who played very well at the weekend and his pace will probably be very important to us.Having said that, he looked very close to getting injured towards the end of the game and, although he carried on, I suspect he might be feeling that for a few days. Which makes you think that if he was to get an injury then we might be struggling a bit in that area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Bump 0 Posted July 26, 2010 R.Martin is okay, Francomb/Brindley are unproven.Definitely think we need another right back. Orr would have been good, but it does look like he''s going to QPR. Rosenior would have been good as well but looks like he could join Coppell at Bristol City. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Put in an amazing last ditch tackle that prevented a very good oppertunity on goal for Lovenkrands. He instantly told the ref that he was ok to play on, one of those that kills right after it happens but subsides as you run about and get the blood flowing again. Wouldn''t think it was too serious.He is sort of baffling though - looked good and solid against Newcastle - did he get on the wrong side of someone at Peterborough?
