would anyone take Jorge Leitao?

fallon hmmm would be good i suppose
 
well Swansea had a bid turned down for him (Fallon)

Swansea are looking to bolster their strike-force further after last week's £125,000 signing of Leon Knight.
"We're still pursuing strikers and have bids in with three clubs at the moment, hopefully one will come off in a few days," said Swans chairman Huw Jenkins.

The club have already had a bid rejected for Swindon's Rory Fallen, while Rochdale's Grant Holt is a potential target.

They are also thought to be considering a bid for Chelsea defender Steven Watt.

Leitao quit Walsall because he was homesick and went back to Portugal...

i didnt know that, i just saw on skysports that he is out of contract. wondered why? he always bags a few goals.

it was Fallon though, the biggest bid for the player so far... i would presume, its been accepted?
 
I saw Rory Fallon. i think if we get him no one else will come in. I do think I know who the other striker is as well, although i have been given 2 other names besides fallon.

i think you will find we are in fact interested in parkin, despite ron laughing it off. we have had scouts at tranmere, quite possibly watching greenacre. Peter Thorne of Norwich is the other player i have heard we might go in for.
 
p.s. i know they are random well especially peter thorne, and i don't know a single thing about him , although i think he used to play for cardiff, but apparently he wants first team football, has a proven goalscoring record and we have had a look.

IF (that's a big 'if') you are right about Fallon, I will now worry, as there is no way we should be considering a lump like Parkin.

Is this from the same source that informed you of all those pre-season signings? Remind us again how many names you gave us in the summer and how many of them signed
 
this feller seems to know an awfull lot for a chance sighting. not sure rory fallon is a striker i would want playing for us if we do go up to the championship

keep your knickers on mate! this board is perfect to talk about transfer gossip to see what fellow fans a like think of potential new signings. I don't pretend to be Steve Tilson telling you in advance we are signing (name) and he will be on (value) per week.

I merely tell you what I have seen and what I have been told. If i feel it is relevant and can be discussed on this board then I will add a topic or talk about it at the relevant time in another topic.

I believe i am perfectly within my rights to do so?

Yes, and who was the person who told you about mitchell cole signing up and knew we were in talks. Me. I remember talking to matt the shrimp about it at the time and didnt mention it on this board.

That is because i knew the deal was nearly scuppered at the time because of the money the agent wanted even though mitch was dead keen to sign.

So I won't come on here and say we are signing him when I know a deal is close because I don't want to alert any other clubs or tempt fate, or whatever other reasons. But, even though this is a free speaking message board we still get people like you ready to stick the knife in when i am simply keeping this message board alive with stories just like the next person.
