    Watford boss Adrian Boothroyd wants to add a new striker to his squad in January.
    However, The Times says Boothroyd has ruled out signing Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink from Charlton Athletic, Ade Akinbiyi from Sheffield United, or David Healy from Leeds United.

    He hasnt ruled out Nathan Ellington, Billy Sharp, Freddy Eastwood and the others we have been linked with but i would of liked to see Hasselbaink or Healy come to watford

    I have it on good authority from a source at the club that we had a £5m offer accepted for Nugent. The player however didn't want to discuss terms.

    I don't think many of us will be suprised if Everton (or Boro) buy him in January

    Ok, perhaps I should have re-worded it as 'according to a source at the club'. I didn't realise you had the monopoly on inside information !

    Where does it say anyone has a monopoly on anything?

    The rumour is straight out of your comic or if someone did tell you this there own.

    Fair enough. I can't prove what was said to me so there is little point dragging it out. I would say that the few occasions I posted these 'rumours' as you say on the fishal boards they were correct. I remember getting laughed at when I posted the Danny Webber/Danny Cullip thread 5 days before it happened.

    People miss out Earnshaw because he's another Henderson, OK in the Championship but not good enough for the Prem.

    Ofcourse norwich would sell their topscorer to a potentially rivals club next season if we go down...
