summer of 2013 - transfer rumour thread

Very helpful that you are now annotating your jokes with explanatory notes (and clearly labeling them as jokes) --saves the masses a lot of pondering time.

For American posters :mrgreen:

the "t" redundant?

Actually, the "r" is. I left out an "h" an "a" and a "d" whilst including an extra "s".

10 seconds...not bad, anybody else get that?

Forgot to post the scoring system:

within 01 seconds - excellent
within 03 seconds - very good
within 05 seconds - good
within 07 seconds - average
within 09 seconds - poor
over 09 seconds - really?

After 7 hours 24 minutes of rigorous Yank analysis, I've reached the conclusion that you've called me a posh date -- my wife disagrees.

Faaip - This same wife and I are really enjoying your geoguessr.com game. I have vowed not to beat your 21,000 score for fear of setting off an international incident. My best is 18,500 and that was handed to me courtesy of a Welcome to Frankfurt bus and a recognizable shot of the Santa Monica pier. I hate when I guess Canada and it's Australia - big deductions. P.S. What are the arrows for? They do nothing on my iPad.

they're more for seeing in which direction you can move...you can click on them on a normal pc to move but it's quicker just to click to where you want to go

Very true, Ems. Not sure if the digression has more to do with our inability to stay on task or the lack of tasty rumours.

Thought i'd start a thread for this as it's becoming a little tiresome checking new posts on the rumour thread only to find it's just some more innane braindead drivel about something completely unconnected to what we were hoping to see..no offence like..sure some of you lot feel the same though? So now in future if you see something in here, you will have genuine cause for excitement. Thanks.

Not if we sign players with the reputation and speed of Diouf. Only good signings are exciting. Snoddy was exciting. Gradel too. We've not had much else other than solid players, solid players are fine/essential but never exciting. Thomas on loan was exciting.

It is an immutable law of MOT that every thread eventually goes wandering in a totally different direction.

And has been released by the baggies. A no-brainer, surely?

Short term, certainly. A one-year deal with possible extension would be decent I'd say. Got to be careful not to take this thread off topic discussing rumours though

[Bakerjamessteven]

I wish, pray and hope that we only sign good, top, championship/ premiership players????? Well let's hope

[white.riot]

Is he injury prone? Baggies fans seemed keen on him and he stood out when he played at ER, despite not being match fit. If injury prone I would avoid.

[GlennLUFC]

another player thing love to see at ER is the pair from Dundee United Jonny Russell and Gary Makay-Stevens. two quality quick players.

It's possible, mate, has to be a reason why they would let a player with genuine pace and an eye for goal go? Maybe Clarke just doesn't fancy him, who knows? But you're right, he's no good to us if he's never off the treatment table
