Evy11_BCFC Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Left Winger?? Can play all down the left hand side, would be a great addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
internetjef Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 seen bits and pieces from him but not that much seems a bit daft spending all that on a left winger when we have mcindoe who is arguably one of our best and most consistent performers granted its only speculation but id rather see funds spent on strikers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted June 28, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Can play all down the left hand side, would be a great addition. . . . .based on what ? I take it you watched him week in week out ??? LM is surely a position we don't need extra cover in ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace would be an excellent player for City. Has bags of skill especially at Championship level and can also play left back/midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westonred Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Tribal Football have now got hold of the story, so there might be some truth in the rumour.. http://www.tribalfootball.com/article.php?id=100427 He can play anywhere along the left hand side and used to play left back for Celtic so it sounds like he would be a useful addition to the squad if there was any truth in the rumour http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ross_Wallace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easton boy Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 The sunderland fans seem to like him saying he has genuine talent and not wanting him to go for less than a cool mill. Seems strange that the City website would put the article from Tribal Football in the Sunday Press Talk section - not exactly the Guardian is it? What next Press Talk reporting on Football Rumours.com? As its on the OS could be a case of no smoke without fire?........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chowie Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Was talk of Ross on here before, think in Carle thread, (don't want to extend that one) anyway report here says he wants to stay at Sunderland and rejects a one million move to PNE. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/sunde...72703-21222957/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinapig Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Interesting one. How often do players "vow" (it's always vow) to fight for their place then almost immediately leave? Wouldn't think Roy Keane's mind was that easy to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't think Roy Keane's mind was that easy to change. You say that but didn't he openly criticise Kieran Richardson and a couple of others whilst at United for being lazy and thinking they had made it before they had and then he went on to sign him at Sunderland.

You're right. Then again when Richardson returned from injury towards the end of last season he wasn't happy with him and dropped him again. There again (again) there was Miller ( I think) who was listed for turning up late for training regularly but eventually got pardoned so I'm arguing against myself! :coat: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Left back? Need to think ahead long term in terms of possible promotion and the best way to prepare for the PL is to get players capable of stepping up early to blend and build a squad.

mightyreds89 Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Would be a great signing as can play left back and left midfeild... I personally think we need cover there is McIndoe or McCalister were oout for a decent length of time we have no real cover! Fontaine does well at LB but is much better suited at CB. Mcindoe was great last season and I am sure he will be next season but I have a feeling we may see McIndoe used more centrally this season as he often spent a lot of time drifting infeld last year! I think we may play 3 up top with the big guy in the middle with McIndoe being one of the quicker attacers playing off of him! With the Egyptian/Maynard or Tyson!

bethnalgreenred Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Doesn't look likely? http://www.teamtalk.com/football/story/0,1...3771474,00.html Wallace turns down North End move Preston have failed in their bid to take Ross Wallace to Deepdale after the winger turned down a move to fight for his place at Sunderland. Wallace, 23, who has made 55 appearances for Roy Keane's side, is on the transfer list and was the subject of a £1million bid from North End. However, the 23-year-old says he wants to stay on Wearside. Lilywhites chairman Derek Shaw told the club's official website: "I can confirm that we made an offer for Ross Wallace which was accepted by the Sunderland board. "However, we have received word back that Ross wants to fight for his place in the Sunderland side in the hope of maintaining his status as a Premier League footballer, which we can fully understand. "We will continue to back manager Alan Irvine throughout the summer as he continues to identify the right players to take Preston North End forward."

Mr Popodopolous Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Put it this way. The reason I say as left back is because we have a perfectly good left winger. Does anyone think McCallister is the man for the position? Championship? Certainly. PL? Less sure.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballwinningcentrehalf Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Wouldn't really want Wallace at left-back, even as cover. Remember seeing him for Celtic when he was about 16, came on and showed great skill and delivery, don't think he ever really pushed on from there though.
