Rumours Rumours - Transfer Window Summer 2013 (Alnwick In, Green loan out, Stewart loan in)

ive seen it all on football rumours now:

Chris Solly Looks set to complete a 1.5 mil move to West Ham

Charlton Will use this money to sign Former right back Simon Francis (1 mil) and Sam Baldock (500k) To strengthen their squad

Francis impressed when he was at Charlton and is thought to be the perfect replacement for Solly, Francis is also a favourite with the fans

Seems like someone was looking for a bite, d'you reckon, Teckers ?

Simeon Jackson released by Norwich.

He fits the bill for something this side is missing. Would be chuffed if we could get him, SEB or Vaughan, preferably Jackson though.

Order of pref
1 Jackson
2 Vaughan
3 SEB

Jackson! PLEASE!

Ditto

Simeon Jackson on a free would be great, almost makes too much sense to end up happening.

I reckon some one took my one on the goodbye solly thread as either worth a bit of banter or seriously like the OP on that thread

Can't believe we're going to have to pay £1 million to get our favourite right back at the Valley, surely he's worth more than that?

Obika may well be doing enough for Spurs to keep him around, or atleast adding a bit onto his fee

Jackson would be the perfect replacement for Haynes. In that he should score goals but more importantly play more than 15 games a year.

Notice they are also letting Elliot Ward go, but can see him going to a top spending Champ side. He looked class for Forest so may even go back to them I guess.

For our 4 strikers, I would be happy with Kermo, Jackson (first choice pair), Obika and Smith as Yann's back up. Surely we could afford that with the wages we have saved. Maybe even Fuller on a pay as you play if he doesnt get anything else.....

There's no way we are going to be able to match the wages that some team will be able to offer simeon jackson. Probably on 10k at norwich at the moment

This is where Chris Powell sells them his dream and they take a pay cut to be a part of something special

We can do worse than raiding Norwich this summer. Vaughan, Jackson and Ward would be top quality additions. David Fox would be worth a look as well, if the price is right of course...

I think Spurs should keep Obika if they have any sense .. but ABC or whatever his handle is, still might not fancy him and might go for a 'highly rated' unpronounceable continental

Disagree. He's already nearly 23 and spurs have other prospects (arguably better) out like Harry Kane. Spurs play with 1 up top and with Adebayor, Defoe and maybe Dempsey he's not even close to any of their standard. Since they've apparently signed down Bale for another year they'll be looking for another striker who's got the quality to push them into top 4, not someone who doesn't even start in the Championship.

Obika could do a lot worse than sign for us. He may want to try establish himself at Spurs but it's really not going to happen now. Think it'd be a good move to come here and work up the leagues, that's the only way he'll get Premier League football anyway.

Hope the board back Powell enough to make a decent offer to him (Jackson). Reckon CP could sell the club, and at 26 Jackson entering his prime. Fuller+Haynes wages for Jackson's wage is a great deal. Confident he'd start more and score more than both of those two combined.

Heard powell is looking at signing a player called Zach Fagan from arsenal. Friend of mind works down the training ground and saw him down there last week checking the place out...

not too sure what to think about that , a young defender on what i expect will be a loan

Released? Two years ago he was the next Rio Ferdinand.

To be fair they've butchered their academy squad. That left back Meade got thrown out and he has started for the first team this season at 18. Eisfeld meant to be going as well.
