Claude Davis

[Hammo]

Don't shoot the messenger all. Maybe it isn't even worth a discussion. As opposed to saying we will or we want to sign him would it be realistic of Derby's central defender Claude Davis to sign for Southend United?

He is still playing international football for Jamaica. Although, Southend love an international footballer! "Tesfaye Bramble's an international".

We are in the hunt for a defender, and three people have mentioned him one suggesting we have taken a look at him. But, I personally would have thought his wages would be too high. Although I am led to believe he is sorting a settlement to leave Derby and if so he would be available on a free.

Apologies to those of you who this offends as another transfer rumour but worth a discussion perhaps/perhaps not?

Ridiculous!!!

Ron posts a message about a winding up order of over £600,000 and you are suggesting a player that has commanded fees of around £2-£3m recently and would be on wages of around £15-20k.

So no, I think you can stop worrying about Claude!

Aggression! I wasn't suggesting. It was suggested to me so I put it to those at SZ.

Transfer fee irrelevant.

Fair play to him if he is on 15k a week in the championship.

A) It took me a good while to recover from reading the first post so I'll skip the second.
B) I imagine he's out of our budget, even if he was on a free. Would definitely take him though.

I think this is possbily the least likely of all the suggestions bar maybe the one about signing Cristian Ronaldo ever...........
