Ivan Katalinic's 'tache

Isn't that basically telling us, "come and get him, €25 million and he's yours!"...?

http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11700/8804802/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Latest from Sky, probably a re-hash of that translated article.

Poch does seem more open on transfers than Adkins so hopefully, as you say, there will be at least a hint of some new arrivals...

Maybe. But I guess football is like any workplace industry. Players from our team know and talk to other players from other teams who they remain in contact with and, in domestic terms, could know if we actively trying to sign players from those others teams. I certainly keep in touch with mates from former workplaces and have a reasonable knowledge of goings on there. Here's hoping that deals are all just being kept super quiet to avoid interest from competitors and not just there's nowt going on!

Interesting, either we're biding our time waiting for the right players to become available or maybe MP did keep his word and did get all his business done by July 1st.

Ssshhhhh! Or Luke Shaw will put you in your place too...

Amazingly no. Lee Todd was w*nk at Prem level whilst Molyneux was cr*p in the Championship.

Just seen this on the Beeb site: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23088215 Thought he was pretty pants in his 4 games for us at left back but good to see he is now carving out a career in the lower leagues as a winger. 8 goals in 12 games is fairly impressive stuff and now he's moved to Crewe, he'll get a chance to see if he can cut it at League 1 level.

I'll give them a quid. Blown that story out the water...

Barry Horne, Neil Maddison, Iain Dowie, Graham Baker, Malcolm Waldron, David Puckett, Glenn Cockerill, Gordon Hobson, Gordon Watson, Paul Allen

Steve Moran for me closely followed by MLT & this fella. But for injuries I'm sure Moran would've played for England.

My friend who posted on Facebook swears he didn't get it there but I'm wondering now...

Seen a rumour we're making a large bid for him + bits on the ever reliable Twitter. Never heard of him - anyone know what sort of player he is?

If there truly is a meeting with the player, surely (a) the player is at the very least slightly interested or why bother with the meeting and (b)hopefully he'd have an awareness of what's on offer before flying in from Brazil?

Look at that image. He seems to be highlighting that he doesn't have a watch. This one could be on...

Sorry, I was praying not ITK-ing.

Hopefully there will be some positive transfer news soon to take our minds off the anti climactic kit launch...

No need. Just go on to the OS at 9am tomorrow morning and see our parade of new stars in our Adidas re-vamp of the Keegan kit...

Not a massive fan of the new shirt, if indeed that is the new shirt. If another primarily all red shirt and maybe shorts is correct, it would nice to know why we've moved away from our more traditional stripes. Cardiff made a more drastic change but at least they explained why! Also, weren't there rumours of a new signing perhaps showing off the new kit, I wonder if this is true although technically Lovren is a new signing and could be used for this function...

So, now we not even speaking to the player because we knew ages ago what he wanted to join us? Then why did we suddenly agree a figure with Celtic??? Each passing revelation leaves us even further away from this being completed, according to the media. Apart from the hint Crab Lungs gave us, there's not been much on this from our usual ITK-ers too. Wouldn't bet against the arrival of a leftfield alternative arrival.

Lol. Wasn't Ray Wilkins known as the crab? And Crabby is passing information? Therefore I deduce this will DEFINITELY happen.

Cheers Crabby. I can't believe we're signing the Palace cheerleaders...

"Nancy winger wanted by Southampton..." - I thought the League was trying to rid the game of homophobic comments?

Plus I'm sure there'd have been an indication of what was on offer before he even flew back otherwise why bother dashing in like that?
