Have we signed anyone yet? 20 pages have been added since I last looked at about 11.30.

Gylfi signed a few pages back, Lawrie Sanchez has taken over as manager, Bertrand and Mariappa will be signing later. That's the last 20 pages.

This thread is all a bit of fun but on a serous note I will be astounded if Brian has not been on the phone to Anton and said "do you want to make some money - if so we need to sign Siggy now 7M a lot of money but you will make a huge profit in time". If Anton has any sense he should back Brian to the hilt on this.

Then it is just a case of phoning Siggy and getting him to pop in on the way to Swansea.

I would not normally condone trebling our transfer record on one player but this is a chance just too good to miss. If Brian does have a transfer budget of 15M as suggested I will be more than happy if we bought Siggy and spent the rest on cheaper players/freebies. Would even be happy to keep Church instead of adding Rhodes (that might help swing it for Gylfi anyway).

I think it will come down to us v Liverpool for Gylfi but the fact that we would build our team round him might just edge him our way as a successful season or two at RFC would lead to a transfer to a top 6 side.

Big Ern I have nothing of value to add to this thread, only that this post will take us closer to the magical 300 pages.

He's not coming back, can we please stop talking about it, it's too upsetting :!:
