22A Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Will the P&E duo be allowed to sign anyone, or must they wait for the next Manager to be appointed? As we're now in the second half of the transfer window, I like to think anyone at the club could recommend potential signings and if the Board consider the finances are agreeable, we'd be able to sign them.

No idea of the truth, but I heard that SL & JL were dining with our future manager in Hotel Du Vin last night??? That would explain their absence from their normal position yesterday. I can't imagine neither of them were at the game as JL is ALWAYS there, usually with his little one. Watching the game from behind mirrored windows /doors possibly? I was going to say 'is the appointment already agreed or is the new boss already at the club' TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Gills rejected 2 bids for Dack and that we're holding our nerve for a final bid... Which according to someone as know will be dependant on if we e,ploy Pearson or Appleton!

YorkshireSection Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Cardiff are a fickle bunch. hes put a bit of Terrry on since his UTD days but more athletic and mobile than Wilbs good enough I'd say, especially playing off Burns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the type of "has been/never will be" transfer we have been promised we will never get involved in again. Billy Sharp - 363 senior appearances and 152 goals. Better option for me.

samo II Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Just a thought on Macheda... On Friday night, Pearson spoke about how he had frequently brought in Manchester United youth players at his previous clubs, and he believed they tended to provied their young players with an excellent baseline of coaching, and with limited opportunities to break through, they tended to be hungry to play. Now, realise he's been away from Man U for a while, but as the rumours suggest our potential new manager is aware or okay with us still chasing that lad, would fit the bill. Realise I'm putting 2+2 together to make a bigger number, but you never can tell with these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but geography matey a part as I believe he has friends abs family in London. If however we manage to sign the likes of Pearson as manager I think it may be more of a pull.

Davefevs Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Perhaps I should be said, 'ask the waiter, he's the Pearson to ask" Seriously though, I'm only saying what someone else told me, and I suspect they were only passing on rumours. Don't get your hopes up. I am not ITK, nor is my mate.....but I would say he knows much more about the inners of Bristol City than I do....."I know nothing". If true, I doubt father and son were dining in the main restaurant either!, in front of other diners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shtanley Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Come on guys why on earth would we want Billy Sharp? 78 goals in 240 championship games isn't exactly outstanding. He got 5 in 33 in the championship last year in a half decent Leeds side. Wilbraham has that this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old_eastender Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Can't say I see Macheda as a good potential signing, he must still be on BIG money and apart from his loan to Brum into 2014, his scoring record is poor. Would much rather we had gone in for Kermorgant. Sounds sadly typical of Cotts chasing the wrong targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chairman Mao Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Can I just add goals per min is a much better that than goals per apperances If I play 40 matches being subbed on with 10 to go (hello Agard or Burns etc) then 7 in 40 is actually good whereas it looks awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
