Title: No more signings.
Post by: FatFreddysCat on February 01, 2010, 03:46:18 PM
SSN has said that Fulham say they have concluded all deals.

So we finish with 3 signings - Shorey, Buchtmann and Okaka, but no James Beattie.

I guess that Shorey and possibly Okaka will go straight into the team vs Pompey, however, letting Kamara go to Celtic on loan still makes no sense whatsoever.

Wages.

Sounds like Kallio is still going to go to The Blades for the remainder of the season though.

As posted by a few others Badger, Kamara and Roy must have had a fall out, but at least we have got a fallback in which was the highest priority, but would have loved Finnan to have come back on loan to fill the right back spot, i'm sure Pompey would have loved to have cut him from the wage bill.

...no more signings - are you sure? Our man with his ear close to the ground and famed tipster wadey seems to think a late announcememnt is still to be made, and that we only hear about it Tuesday (correct me if I am wrong Mr W).

If true, the Fulham announcement that the clubs transfer dealings are now closed could well be a smokescreen. I hope so...

True, if this was indeed the case in regards to Roy and Dio than I presume that there was only ever going to be 1 outcome - I can't see wages having been the issue as (according to reports) we were willing to pay out for Beattie who would have had a sizeable impact on the clubs wage bill.

I think the mods should start a campaign to mess with his profile until he spills the beans.

If I'm right in thinking, Kamara has under a year left on his contract, is 29 years of age, always injured, cost us 6 million & has joined Celtic on loan with a view to buy. He is also reported to be on £30 - £35k a week.

So we keep hold of him, he goes on a free next year, we continue to pay his £30 - £35k a week wages (in or out of the team), no room on the wage bill for anyone to come in & he then sticks two fingers up at us once he's gone...

THATS WHY HE'S BEEN FFCUKED OFF OUT OF IT....

AND - the bloke has never really commanded a regular place under Roy - except when his hand has been forced.

Little by little Roy is making the squad his own - of the 26 players on the 'First Team' page only 6 are not Roy acquisitions now -
