weststandlower Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 David Dunn...1 million...medical taken!
glossopWANDERER Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 good signing will be interesting to see where he will fit into are midfield
bristol_wanderer Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 We have a lot of strength in that attacking midfield position with Tal, Teymourian, Nolan - even Stelios when desperate. But only just turned 27, has a lot to prove, our backroom team will get him as fit as possible, this could be an excellent deal. He went to Brum in a big money deal so wages might be an issue - we will probably be offering a substantial wage reduction. Now lets sign a couple of defenders....
mickadoo Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/sport/articl...ball/article.do Looks like we might get dhorasoo as well.
Freddie_Hill Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/sport/articl...ball/article.doLooks like we might get dhorasoo as well. "Fulham expect to pip Bolton to the signature of Vikash Dhorasoo. The controversial India-born midfielder, 33, who was sacked by Paris St Germain after a row with coach Bernard Lacombe, was at Craven Cottage yesterday to discuss terms on a free transfer and a two-year deal." - from bottom of the page of your link.
The True Marple White Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Where has it been printed about Dunn signing - cant find anything on the web!?
Burndens Bogs Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I hope it's not true. Dunn has played 46 league games in THREE AND A HALF seasons with Brum, he's a fcuking sick note who enjoys a bit of ill health - leave well alone imo.
STAN Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Where has it been printed about Dunn signing - cant find anything on the web!? Bolton Wanderers have agreed a ??1m deal with Birmingham for midfielder David Dunn. The 27-year-old underwent a medical at the Reebok Stadium on Thursday evening and could be unveiled at a press conference on Friday. Dunn, signed from Blackburn for ??5.5million three and a half years ago, has long favoured a move back to the north west to allow him to be closer to his daughter and family. The former England Under-21 captain has been dogged by injuries during his time at St Andrews, making just 53 starts in three and a half seasons. The move has helped Birmingham manager Steve Bruce finance a ??2.5m move for Luton Town's prolific striker Rowan Vine. http://www.eurosport.com/football/premiers...to1052649.shtml

As much as he's a beltin player when he is fit...I can't help but agree Sure Sam sees it as a gamble though, if he can get him fit good, if not, fcuk him off He'll have a pay as you play element in his contract hopefully
pike_mill_white Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Birmingham boss Steve Bruce has insisted David Dunn's impending ??1million switch to Bolton is "amicable". Dunn is on the verge of joining the Trotters for a cut-price ??1million - a huge loss on the ??5.5 million Bruce paid Blackburn in the summer of 2003. He was at his best during his first six months at the club when the Blues were in the top six of the Premiership. But hamstring and back problems limited him to a handful of appearances after that and now Bruce believes Dunn will benefit from a fresh challenge. He said: "David Dunn is fit and it might be in the best interests of both parties if something happens. "He has problems with his family life up north. That is genuine, so it might be in both our interests that I get a few quid in, spend it on someone else and then off we go again. "It will be an amicable goodbye. As long as I get the money I am looking for, it will be amicable! "It's a shame Dunny has had so many injury problems here because he is a special player, someone who is part of a dying breed, and in his first few months here you saw the influence he can have on a team. "If people like Dunny, Mikael Forssell, Muzzy Izzet and Matthew Upson had stayed fit last season, we would have been a far better team and I am convinced we would have stayed in the Premiership. "The club has spent millions on Dunny, buying him, trying to get him right, trying to get him on the pitch. He is also a decent wage earner. A change of scenery might do him good."
enzo gambaro Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Amicable? I'll bet! There must be something wrong with the training or something at some of these clubs, though, surely? Places like Newcastle and Birmingham have virtually a full side at death's door all the time and it can't just be down to bad luck. If we can get him - and keep him - fit then we'll have signed a very good footballer for next to nothing. Failing that, at least our Munich will have a bit of company.
fishbulb Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Daft as a brush Great Harwood lad. 100% Roverrs (the thick red ginger).
YATESY Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Not a bad signing - if he stays fit... ...but as I mentioned earlier in the week: we had a totally changed midfield at Doncaster last weekend and the lads that came in showed that we have good strength in depth in this department already. Where and when Dunn is going to play I have no idea.

I don't think we should get too carried away about beating Doncaster.
no balls Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Does no one else just keep having that image of him falling over the ball when trying to attempt a bit of showboating? Just me then?
pike_mill_white Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Looks a right fat kunt! Campo's Pizza Hut partner may be??
Churchill Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 That when he fell over was funny as fook,even Bruce was laughin his potato head off on't touchline.For your viewing pleasure it's on this about three quarters of the way down! http://www.ave-it.net/funny_pictures1.htm
gregbwfc Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Perhaps we can get him fit for the start of next season.
Jack_Daw Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Bad signing, not needed and another bloody Fortune, he's always injured! Happy to be proven wrong though
