Gary Harkins signs for Greenock Morton, bloody loved him when he was here.

According to the Bury website all three relegated Championship clubs were interested in Dawson so if they are paying more money than Blackburn and Wigan they must have really chucked the cash at him.

Looks about right, would have possibly kept Law as I think he is a decent squad player but would depend on what wages he would want.

Would imagine it was to try and prevent Bolton fans in the home ends.

We can't go on together with suspicious minds

He has been our best outfield player by a country mile so would be gutted to see him go. While on the face of it a good move for Clarke there is an excellent chance Scunthorpe will get promoted and can you see him playing in the Championship next season, I personally wouldn't think so. He would therefore be faced with not being a regular and he does not strike me as someone happy to be on the bench or finding a new club next season. I also don't want him to go as I would like to bear witness to the Calvin Andrew retribution.

Our media guys have obviously been to the Donald Trump school of press relations, it will be 3.00 AM Tweets next

Senior people at the club telling fans that they have two important Chinese visiters is not going to lead to speculation other than potential investment / new owners so they let the cat out the bag. In reality they came, they saw and didn't fancy it so this article is being used as a scape goat because if you really wanted to invest that article would not do a thing to stop you. My biggest concern is that a press release has gone out with a final paragraph that is so poorly written it doesn't make sense, which is a far bigger indicator as to why you would not invest in us.

Are these the guys? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3417557/Portuguese-clubs-field-Chinese-players-new-sponsorship-deal-second-tier-LigaPro-division.html

No surprise in that he is signing today but hearing two and a half year contract.

When Real Madrid and Bayern Munich didn't come in for him this Summer hopefully Gerrard became more realistic about his value.

I'll be honest a week before our first pre-season game and we had just installed a manager and had five players on the books I never saw this happening.

For elbowing Peter Clarke

Kelly and Dunn inherited the majority of a team assembled by Lee Johnson, which was settled and had a full pre-season. Robinson got about five players, none of which you would call regulars from the previous season with a week to go to prep for his first pre-season game.

Delighted, there are few people I dislike more in football

As Magister has said it is the prosecution who has to prove his guilt, and from what I've read over the last few days while his actions are extremely distasteful I don't think you can say 100% that he is guilty of rape. The judge even said in the summing up even if you think he might have done it than you have to give a verdict of not guilty. If found innocent I think he would go after his previous Barrister if he feels he was negligent in defending him in the first trial.

It was almost like he got booed off at half time and thought right these bastards are having it. His inability and inconsistency was laughable.

It will be interesting to see if Gerrard finds a club, I think at this late stage he will probably have to settle for someone outside the Champions League.

You've run out of pies !!! There's only 3,000 here.

I am hearing the target is Sullay Kaikai from Palace, would imagine if it is him the Bolasie sale could be preventing a loan deal until they sign a replacement.

Looks like Jose Baxter won't be re-joining us for at least 12 months

£30k a week is unbelievable, he could afford to sign a highly promising goalkeeper from us every week.

I can see Klok and Fane hitting it off

I think we are such an unattractive proposition for a potential buyer. The owners will want too much money for the areas that make them money, car park land, new stand etc., which leaves you essentially the brand that is pretty much worthless.
