He sounds like a step up from polish Pete who is rumoured to be off to St Truiden. This sounds like it's all about getting network players in the right places for them and the clubs. I trust that if pre season reveals a problem upfront (or in goal) then we buy or borrow the right players to complete the squad and give the new signings and head coach the best possible chance of putting us top half by end September. It's so important to hit the ground running in the Championship as I'm sure good results will help the squad find their feet even quicker.
Pete Finch will have a field day with this lot in his excitable way. :-)
It should make for interesting listening. I hope his false teeth are ready for it.
I struggled enough last weekend with the Hungarian names..... I have asked Bob to make sure we get someone with a name I can actually say... I suggested Darren Bent. Lord help me....
Can't see anything being announced today as they won't be able to submit paperwork until tomorrow and they will want to ensure all ok before making it official. I'll be surprised if it isn't George though.

Sounds a bit like playing that children's favourite game( well, in the Dark Ages when I was a gal) - Happy Families.
Hopefully we'll be the one to complete our "set" satisfactorily before 9th August.

I would be very happy to have a player like eider around the club right now hos age experience and know how would be invaluable to players like nego cousins gomez piggott fox Lennon even to those with more experience like igor and the ice man
gudjohnsen will be 36 in september, so getting on a bit would be an understatement!...then again there's perhaps a link with peeters re cercle brugge...

Another one we once nearly signed . Didn't Curbs have him lined up to sign from Bolton only to be gazumped by Chelsea ?
Did Peeters manage him at Bruges? If so this is possible.
But now would he be more Barnes or Di Canio?

Eidur played under Peeters maybe?
Now that would be an interesting signing.
