... and Susan's a Liverpool fan!!!

They have penguins and gender signs - I WANT PENGUINS AND GENDER SIGNS!!!

SWP at Finch Farm

Very true - unless it's on 31st aug/1st sep - I had to look it up but I do remember vagely when we signed McFadden, Martyn, Kilbane and Jeffers (loan) within hours of each other - that was too much for me!!!

............Howard............ Hibbert..Jags..Distin..Baines Coleman...Felli...Nev...Arteta ............Osman............ ............Cahill........... Subs: Eto'o Messi Villa Neymar Tevez C.Ronaldo Rooney I know, at bit optimistic about re-signing Rooney but hey-ho!!!

Linked to Newcastle in the Mirror.

To quote myself... Winds me up that Spain have got Mata and Capel in their squad - they were part of their World Cup Winning squad last summer (I think) - we should be going all out to win this! Still looking forward to watching though! I'd love us to go in early for that Swiss winger as an alternative to N'Zogbia!

This winds me up... If Moyes loses out on N’Zogbia, he will try to bring West Ham target-man Demba Ba to Goodison, and he is also keeping tabs on pacy Sporting Lisbon striker Yannick Djalo, although the chances of him raising the funds to sign the Portugal star are remote. He's on a free!!! Surely we should be expecting N'Zogbia and Ba!?

That looks a steal for what they paid!

Trying!

Many happy returns! (x2)

2 wingers and 2 strikers please.

That'd be as much as a battle as The Nazi Army vs The Telletubbies!!!

Makes sense. Could see Rangers and/or Celtic joining the race at some point.

It winds me up, it's all I hear off Villa fans and I'm about to spend the next 4 days (in Barca on Stag Do) with 6 Villa fans... as well as 8 Stokies, 2 Leeds, 1 Forest and worst of all 1 stinking Kopite (and a few who I've not met yet so don't know who they support!!!) I am the only EFC rep and will be wearing my pink training top on our visit to the Nou Camp on Friday!!!

It's not even June 1st (just yet) and I'm already sat jumping from site to site looking for rumours - why do I do this to myself every summer?! - it's going to be a very long summer!!!

David Prentice: "Plenty of stories saying Blues chasing Jay Bothroyd. They're not. Not interested in Joey Barton either. See tomorrow's Echo." Lifted from kipper...

Cheers Bill

He had a clause triggered by their relegation so they were forced to sell him. They aren't putting any blame on us, they're saying that they could have demanded £8m without this clause if they had stayed up - maybe getting £6m. The reason they couldn't do this is that they went down at West Ham's expense - with West Ham's good form and key goals coming from Tevez who was acquired/playing 'illegally' for them - so West Ham should have gone down (minus Tevez's input) and Jags release fee should have never been triggered!

£4m being quoted in the press with him linked with Celtic - one year left on contract (I think) - could be an option.

He would cost £6m normally and I think West Ham paid him £30k a week (£1.5m per season) so I could live with paying him £50k per week (£2.5m per season) and him being free - he could have Yak's wage! so - 1.5 x 5 = 7.5 + 6 = £13.5m (on a 5yr deal) - with no signing on fee and wage increase 2.5 x 5 = £12.5m - with no signing on fee - wage increase less likely as already high end earner £12.5m for 5 a year deal would suit me fine - he may want £1-2m signing on fee but at up to £15m over 5yrs we wouldn't necessarily lose money on him unless his knees mean he can't get on the pitch over the 5 years. Should he be shite after 2 seasons - we've only invested £2.5m in him - if he's quality then we'll see!

Opposite to this - I'm in Italy until 16th Aug - gutted in a way but the only time we could go!!!

Bingo!!! (gone to Gala!)

Sinclair seems to have turned into an excellent player.
