Stoner_1990 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Can anyone one else smell the bullshit! Being in a public place like that the press would be all over it and would know, the last few city players that have come down have stayed in the radison blu so i would say the club has a account there if anywhere at all, but saying that if you know all this information surely you could find out the latvians name as every room has to assigned to a person FACT in hotel paperwork, i know this having got a degree in travel tourism and worked closely with hotels! The club is interested in Briggs obviously but if you knew days ago then why say after sky report it?? Everyones got a source up there arse, or cant say or seen it myself Personally i dont think any of it will come true and wont sign but if they do i think it cant be great that he has only 6 appearences in 5/6 years for fulham only played once for orient i think on loan last season and we already have to half decent left backs at the club!

Yes often people post stuff that doesn't come through or was just plain wrong. However there are one or two who consistantly acurate, lets face it we all know someone.

City1984 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 I don't know who BristolCityBoy is but I was also aware we had a Fulham defender on loan, was in training for about two hours as I understand it before being recalled. All this I was told before sky sports ran the story about Briggs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoner_1990 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 either way we need experience weve got a few youth already we need a centre half! a left winger and a actual creative midfielder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City Loyal Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 A new LB eh? obviously doesnt think that much of McGivern....I guess the rumours of us signing him permanently may not be spot on? Says he can also play CB but I doubt thats why we would be getting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redcliffe 78 Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Lets hope if we get him he is another Caulker, if i was Wilson it would piss me off big time, but needs are must when in a relegation fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
internetjef Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Prety sure Fulham used him a little on left midfield in early Europa/preseason games Think he scored a goal or two and had some pretty decent reviews Only remember it because a few people were talking him up as a good value fantasy footie pick if he held that spot into the full season proper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

II Wurzel II Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 From Wiki : Matthew Briggs After being scouted by Fulham at the age of eight after a performance for his Sunday league side, Briggs signed for Fulham. He attracted interest from Premier League teams such as Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea. Although Briggs is primarily a left back, he can play at centre back or as a left winger.

samo II Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 God I must be bored; he's some internet stuff for Briggs; Wiki Page Praise from Jol Match report from game he scored his only senior goal, with pics Sounds like a very promising prospect, and certainly an attack-minded player. It is mentioned he's played left-wing perviously. And anyway, the last player we got from Fulham didn't turn out too badly. Fingers-crossed.

It is mentioned he's played left-wing perviously. And anyway, the last player we got from Fulham didn't turn out too badly. Fingers-crossed. If he is an attack minded full back , coupled with the introduction of Foster , I wonder if DMc is considering the 3-5-2 option ?? It could be a useful tactic especially if Albert is injured. ---------------James------------------ ----Wilson Carey Nyatanga/McGivern------ Foster Kilkenny Cisse Pearson Briggs -----------Wood Pitman--------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynamite Red Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 The gent's wiki page; Kaspars Dubra 21 year old full international 6'3'' centre back/defencive midfielder with (quote) ".. great scoring ability for defender." He was on trial with Wolves last week, according to Latvian press Mick McCarthy does not think he is ready for the Premier league standard football at this point in time and recommended going to a Championship club. I think he maybe out of contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 Evander Sno in his prime would be a fantastic addition right now. Anyone who remembers the Ajax game and the way he controlled everything from central midfield. Unfortunately I seem to remember our bouncing around manager at the time loved to play him out wide! !
