    I don't get why Danny Webber would be a good signing. His record at Pompey was 3 goals in 32 games and prior to that he averages 1 in 5. For me if we replace our top goal scorer with someone who will probably manage 5 goals in the season it will guarantee relegation

    I always thought Lee Novak would be a good signing.

    That's because he's always been the "other" striker where as here he would be moer the main man with Sordell and Deeney as his support.

    Personally always thought he was a good striker. Very unlucky, don't think he ever got over the Jimmy Davies tragedy while he was here.

    Yeah it was, he probably was but I've got previous against him due to the ear incidence which may tarnish my view of him.

    how can a striker be called a striker with 29 goals in 6 seasons??? thats rubbish. if i was that rubbish at my job i'd be sacked!

    i wonder who the worst striker is that makes a living being that bad?

    What about Jordan Rhodes? I know the club has said he is not for sale, but every club has a price.
     
  10. and there's a good chance we can't afford that price.

    He wants to be "surrounded" by people good enough to get him to the Prem. Sounds as if the world revolves around him.

    He did a good job for Watford as a quick, reasonably skilful but totally brainless striker. With all his injuries he has probably lost his pace, but I doubt if he has grown a brain.

    Peter Leven will be joining Watford on a free after failing to agree terms on a new contract with MK Dons.

    Watford have offered £250,000 for Chris Basham from Blackpool.

    Really? he could be good but hes been scoring goals in league 2 for years and has been looked at by many clubs, none so far have decided to buy him though

    Rotherham were reputed to be wanting in excess of £1million for him, as they thought he could play in the Prem:biggrin:

    Watford Keeper Scott Loach to Cardiff for £2m. Deal done by Monday.

    Watford are trying to agree a fee with Rotherham United for Adam Le Fondre. Rotherham want over a million for him but because he has one year left on his contract, Watford are not willing to pay that.

    Watford are apparently willing to offer around £500,000-£700,000 with clauses. Whether that will be accepted who knows.

    C'mon the Millers

    Watford will make a double signing tomorrow {Monday}. Watch this space

    Former Dundee United player Michael Kovacevic is attracting interest from Watford. Hull City were reported to be keen a couple weeks ago but their interest has since died down.

    The Voice of Reason First Team Captain

    This Kovacevic guy is a centre back and is 6'4" tall, he has also only recently recovered from a C ligament knee injury, not too sure about the sound of that?

    Also, why would we want someone like him, unless we were maybe losing Tiny :eek: I sincerely hope not!!!
     
  20. dynamo380

    dynamo380 Reservist

    We would want someone like him because as a squad we lack height, physical presence and far to often last season couldnt defend even if our lives depended on it.

    I dont know anything about the guy tbh, but he could be seen as a long term replacement for tiny - who cant have many seasons left as a player.

    Worst case scenario, we are signing him because we cant find a left back and so doyley has to move there with marriappa shifting out to the right?

    This all sounds very good, but Chris Basham - is that realistic? He was signed by Blackpool for £1.2m from Bolton less than a year ago so I would imagine his wages are around £10k per week?

    Le Fondre for £500k+ would be a gamble. He's got a fantastic scoring record, but two divisions is a big leap.

    The last guy we signed from Rotherham did ok didn't he? ;)

    I'd take le Fondre any day of the week. He'd be a good addition.

    The latest bits are:

    3 mio for Marv? Yes please.
     
  25. PotGuy

    PotGuy Forum Fetishist

    I doubt Marv would go join Malky when Malky dropped him for half the season.

    Probably the only decent thing he has done for us. If he had played him all season he would probably be off to Cardiff too.

    agree about webber - 29 goals in 6 seasons aint great. Shittu must have scored that many.

    Adam Le Fondre would be good
     
  31. YellowKicks

    YellowKicks Squad Player

    Le Fondre would be fantastic.

    Preston striker Chris Brown has agreed personal terms and is currently undergoing a medical at Watford, who are hoping to announce him as their second signing of the day.

    Hmm..

    Rotherham have just signed Grabban on a free

    A forward ! 2+2 = ?

    Chris Brown would be excellent, he has the winning mentality, was born a champion
