We need to utilise the loan market and get someone up until January. Going in to the new campaign with only Petrov and Eagles as wide men is not an option.

fucking typical

Hate them all but I do hope this season see's the demise of Wigan and Blackburn.
I agree with this. Wigan are always going to be in trouble at this level but Blackburn have had so much luck and good fortune over the years, mostly stemming from Jack Walker's influence and legacy. They are due some bad-times and I hope Venky's prove to the joke outfit they currently appear to be. That way the notion that they are in anyway a bigger club than Bolton will be shown as the mirage that it undoubtedly is.
-
I think Eagles would be a good addition - replacement for Moreno.
At right back we already have Steinsson and Ricketts, so when Ricketts is fit again that'll make 3 rbs. I wonder if Coyle intends Ricketts to be a reserve/squad central defender full time from now on with Steinsson and Mears vying for the rb role. To me Ricketts looks far better at centre back than right back.

Well whether its true or not its amusing to watch the ripples over in the land that time forgot. Unless this is denied by all parties they'll all be in the streets grunting with monosyllabic rage by this time tomorrow.

Nail hit firmly on the head there.
Yep. Spot on.

Did you read the original bit on the Bolton News website too before you posted?
That's right yeah. When I posted "Matt Taylor to West Ham" a week ago on here, starting this thread, I was doing so on the basis of pure guesswork and I just happen to have got lucky.
-
Just confirmation from the same ITK source that told me all about this a few days ago (see start of this thread).
The Bolton News is correct, Matt Taylor has indeed flown back to the UK and the deal with West Ham is being progressed.
I don't have any info on the exact fee I'm afraid.
-
In the shop window fully now then it would appear
the signs aren't great here. seemingly no bids made and therefore none accepted.
-
I'm fairly certain Big Fat Sam had the JSL, McCann, Cidd and maybe Braaten and Wilmhelmson deals signed, sealed and delivered before his toys went out of the pram. Which is why IMO the club would have been jammed in reverse with or without Old Walrus Features.
Cid and JSL, you're right (and also Dzemaili).
Braaten, McCann and Wilhelmson - no.
-
I see the rumours are that we are flying him out to Florida for talks. A good call as surely the current 'summer' weather here won't be a good selling point.
That's the 'fly him to the US and talk to him in the sun' plan out the window then
Do we run the risk of someone else nipping in by leaving it to the weekend?
-
as I said the other day when I started this thread ....
not sure ?2.2m is right though - bit less than that.
-
Some Spanish papers are saying it's a done deal apparently.
In terms of fee agreed it does seem to be 'done'. HOwever the Sunday People piece makes clear we've yet to persuade the player himself and three other Spanish clubs are interested.

Burnden v Preston in 93 when we got promoted
Burnden v Swindon in 89 when most of the Burnden Paddock was directed to leave at the end of the game across the pitch to the Manny Road! (in the days when Manny Road was 'members only' and the Paddock was packed for big gate matches)
Hull away in 93
-
Probably no truth in it at all, but Sunday People reporting we've had a 5 million bid accepted for Jeffern Suarez young winger who played for Spain in under 21's tournament. 3 Spanish clubs also interested.Can't see it myself but something s got to happen soon.
Only other thing I've seen this morning was in that paragon of truth and trustworthiness the Daily Star on Sunday - we're "pondering" a ?4m bid for Rhys Williams for Boro.

Went to Open Golf yesterday and was shocked to see said sweaty oaf labouring around golf course watching Tom Watson. Started by curling lip as he went by before gravitating to more obvious abuse. He gave me skunk eye several times. Miracle he got around without a heart atttack imo and look forward to my phone being hacked soon.
You did well not to kick him in the nuts.
-
... I thought Sean Davis was going to be back with us for the start of the new season. I note he was nowhere to be seen in the Tampa Bay game though!
-
Better than anything we've got up front, it has to be said.
One thing having an Arsenal or Chelsea player on loan - another having one from that shower of shit.
-
Taylor to Stoke was doing the rounds yesterday.
Won't lose any sleep over him going, as long as we get an replacement.
To be fair it could be true. Stoke may well be interested - however I only have part of the story, the West Ham part.
If nothing else it seems to indicate Bolton are willing to consider a sale.
-
Is this from Twitter also?
Nope. Its from someone who knows. First time I've posted a transfer rumour on here - because its just about the first time I've heard first hand news from a genuine source and not someone from the media.
-
from an ITK source - talks have taken place, all parties interested in a deal. No conclusion reached just yet but its 'in the pipeline'.
That's from an Upton Park source rather than a Bolton one so the remainder of the equation from a BWFC perspective is open to guesswork. And my guess is that Coyle must want a replacement in before he'll endorse Taylor's move south.
-
The Bolton News reckoned the other day that Ali Al Habsi 'may come back to haunt Bolton'. Danny Ward is going to League One but it wouldn't be the first time we;ve sold someone on down the leagues only for them to slowly but surely make their way back up and wreak havoc against us some time later. Take a bow that bugger from Stoke who got two against us at Wembley - Jonathan Walters.
Anybody else think of examples who fall in to this category? Neil Redfearn has to be the classic from the 80s and 90s.

Elton f*cking Welsby.

That was brilliant. That's Burnden Park how I first saw it. I get so irritated when I see representations of "Bolton's old ground" with a supermarket behind the goal. That was only the last 10 years .. before then there was a huge terrace there that could hold thousands, it had a big blue scoreboard and a railway running behind it. When I first remember it, it was split in to three sections home/away but empty unless needed/away fans. Proper Burnden.

This shower are due a run of bad luck and this might finally be it. They've been punching above their weight since about 1990!
