Hoillett is out of contract, but is under 23. So he will not be free.

Ah one of my favourite threads is back looking forward to a certain posters "exciting times gentlemen" quote


For me (asuming we go up ) the owners should be looking at giving Sam a budget of £20m plus whatever we get from player sales if they are serious about staying up this time.

Kaka apparently, although I dont reckon he is good enough for our team. Nolan is playing in his position

This will easily be another 500 page thread but obviously the content within depends largely on what happens Saturday.

What league does Paul Scharner know inside out? Premier League? We are still in the Championship!

I had a bet at the end of the January window, on how the next Bolton player we will sign would be, I plumped for Jussi Jaaskelainien, my mate went for Kevin Davies. For that reason I hope we sign him. With them down as well as Blackburn, I can see us raiding both clubs.

I wouldn't be too surprised too see us sign Steve Harper, Scharner's a good shot as well.

As for Kaka, when he signed for Real Madrid, they freed up Zidane's old no.5 shirt for him, but he got moody and took no.8 instead, as a result I don't like his attitude.

Nah, cant be the same guy, our Bulgaian friend would write 26 lines to say the same things Gummi says in 2 lines, whilst he berated Gollivan for not getting their cheque books out and spending 3 billion quid trying to sign the words best XI

FFS, NO! Pointless thread anyway until we know what league we're in.

" Last time we scouted there we paid £6 mio for a player who featured 10 times for us and went on a free."

We signed him from Lazio.

Allthough it would be funny if Jordan Rhodes would score a hattrick against the blunts on wembley,the winner in extra time,and then announce on the pitch at wembley that he is going to join West Ham :)

That's why I suggest the buy/loanback/%sell-on scenario.

They need the cash, they can't even find the measly €1.5m for the option on Anderson.

On top of that, I think Baldock could do a job for them, and I think he would learn a lot more on loan in the Bundesliga than in bloody Ipswich.
