Hopefully negotiating with Maddisons agent. We do need to start getting some players over the line, don't want to be going into the first game with only Conway and Bennett as wide options and Graham as our only proven front man.Graham is already struggling with an injury

Apparently according to Nixons Twitter feed(not just him saying it)Wildschut going to Bolton on loan as Wigan wouldn't pay what's needed. Thought they were in dispute for not paying bonus clauses? Would be a good signing.Can only hope that TM has better lined up

Not a chance it would be Roberts in my opinion, the last year has seen him linked with 10 million moves to both Leicester and Southampton. Would be an unreal loan signing but no way do I see it happening

I read it as a winger as the article suggests it would be in preference to Kent who is a wide player.Nmencha is only 19 does look talented,but I'd be more comfortable and more confident if it was Harrison

No not directly but the telegraph are running with a story that we want to take a Manchester City wide man on loan but the move has been held up due to the player in question going to the States with City on their pre season tour

Is he not a striker?I think it could be the Harrison who someone else suggesged

Payne is a good signing for Bradford.They also signed Scannell from Huddersfield today another good signing for league one. Could be a decent bet for promotion next season

Multiple player of the month awards and player of the year is all the proof you need to know you are right.

I'm not a big fan of loans either unless they have an option to buy attached to them.But I suppose it depends on the quality of the loan player in question.Hughill has done it in the championship so like you say probably be a que for him. We have been stung with loans in the past but last year we did use the loan market well.Chapman, Armstrong,Downing,Payne and Antonnson all played their part.Harper was the only one that did nothing

Liverpool fly to America tomorrow will be interesting to see if Kent joins them

Hughill is reportedly available to loan from West Ham ,anyone think he would be a decent option to come in and play up front?Would imagine he is on a high wage tho

Don't get me wrong I like Sharp but the let is not a paper for exclusives.And to be fair the let is the same old stories rehashed over and over again. I mean come on at least give us a name in that article today.I could understand if it was a perm deal and they where trying to keep it under wraps but it's a loan move and I'm sure most clubs will already know what players city are willing to loan out

Do the telegraph and Sharp know that much though?Yeah they hear names or whatever but it's been many years since the telegraph had a genuine exclusive. I found the article a bit pointless today,no names mentioned.

You forgot to mention a bit of the text....#bitinpaper# I'm only joking Chaddy.

I agree with you,iv tweeted the peterboro owner too and had no response. With everything he has said it does look like we could be the club in for him

It's more likely they would want to sell I agree,but if he goes out on loan and does well then they could still get more or less the same fee as they would get now if it went to tribunal..on the off chance Chapman had a cracking season and broke into say England under 21 then they would fetch more at tribunal than they would by selling him now.I know a lots of ifs and buts in there but I don't think you could rule out Chapman being loaned out

Why is Evans eye Why is Evans eyeballing Lenihan

Boro would still get a fee for him next season due to him being under 23 so that's the planet we live on.

Welcome Ryan

I agree with you and I would prefer Chapman due to the fact we would get him on a perm this season or if out if contract next season. What I don't agree with is some posters are acting like the apocalypse is around the corner due to signing Kent.Comments like he is "an average league 1 player ". Things didn't work out for him last season but his form for Barnsley in the championship the previous season caught the attention of Freiburg in Germany and they took him on loan and then he went to Bristol and it didn't work out. Liverpool would firstly not have given him a 4 year deal if they didn't see something in him.They also wouldn't keep loaning him out he would have been let go like Sam Hart. Gerrard who would have seen him on a regular basis is keen to take him to Rangers then that's good enough evidence for me that he has something about him. But if we are to sign Kent or Chapman then it can only be 1 of them imo. Need another who has more of a goal threat and more assists to his name,I know Maddison hasn't played champ but if he were to take his form from league one up a level then his reported 2.5m fee would be a bargain

Exactly. None of us knew too much about Chapman lady season either.As iv previously stated I would prefer a permanent signing but comment like "he is an average league one player"is taking it to the extreme.He is a highly rated young player..if Liverpool didn't see potential they wouldn't be dishing out a 4 year deal to him

Kent had a poor season last year but was good for Barnsley. Liverpool obviously seen enough in him to reward him a 4 year deal.They haven't sold him on so obviously see something in the lad. Gerrard who will have seen plenty of him wants to take him to Rangers. Not saying he would be my first choice,I would prefer a permanent signing. But your statement that Kent is an average league one player who wouldn't have got in our team last year is based on what exactly?

There isn't any evidence we will be signing Kent either tho Chaddy.Nixon says he is number 1 target...Sharpe says he isn't. So 1 of them is wrong.Or both of them don't have a clue like the rest of us

The Maddison link is by us fans...No stories in the press linking us. Nothing coming out of the club linking us. Don't get me wrong I hope Maddison is a target and I hope we do sign him but you can't say Mowbray lost out on his plan a target If we don't sign him as none of us know if he is a player that Mowbray wants

Wharton has signed a new 3 year deal
