Next Season Recruitment

[ramAnag]

You do realise that NONE of the bull**** you seem concerned about has any basis in fact until it manifests itself on the Rams website, not to mention that the window is currently closed

Oops! No, I’d never thought of any of that. Just thought it might be relevant to consider the current rumours. Apparently not.

It's good to discuss rumours too. Remember Baggio?

That's you told RA! I doubt many of these rumours will become reality, most times a player is signed that hasn't been mentioned. The rumours are based on players Eustace has managed before or players that are available. Meanwhile in the back ground Eustace and his recruitment team will be working on a plan.

In any case there wil be multiple targets for one position, there always needs to be an option b or c in case they can't sign option A.

Just a different POV RA and sorry, maybe unfair to aim my pov at you. I?ve never understood the value in the spreading or subsequent consideration of rumours, even more so getting upset/frustrated because they are the wrong type of rumours

Kind of makes one wonder what the point of starting such a thread was back in very early May. Now who was it who did that?

?.and my post contained three facts emanating directly from the clubs spokesman not someone who knows someone down the pub

To be fair saying Armstrong might stay provided he doesn't get a better offer is a bit of a wishy wishy rumour. And even Willie Thorne might have won a tenner on fozzy staying.

Oooh I see somebody has had the "fun" surgically removed, though rather amusing that he is happy to make statements on other subjects based on unverified internet/media sources or even just anecdotal evidence, but supposedly doesn't take any notice of transfer rumours until the players signature is announced on the clubs website!!

It adds a wee bit of entertainment in the closed season to ponder on various rumours and see how, or if any of those mentioned actually sign for the club. Harmless gossip and speculation surely.

Keep wrigglin’ Andy. You started a thread on 3rd May - the final day of last season - entitled ‘Next Season Recruitment’.
Always seemed a tad premature, but most of the fun of the close season is pontificating about who’ll go and how they’ll be replaced.
I guessed, after starting the thread, you wanted replies and a bit of tittle tattle from whatever source. Silly of me.

Premature I?ll accept as a view, but in my case all factual. You?ve actually got the colliwobbles about there not being the right type of rumours which is beyond wierd. And as usual I see you have an echo
