Do we know that he's signed for Tranmere or are we just summising as I can't find it anywhere. Is it possible he might still come. Of the 2 I think i'd prefer the scouser/Austrian.

sorry Ste my post was misleading. By later loans one I meant the deadline in England only which is for loan players and ends sometime in March I think. The one we got Glombard on deadline day last year. I'm sure that finishes at 5pm where the European one(this one) ends at midnight.

Apols if this has already been answered but club site says deadline is 5pm and BBC transfer website says midnight. Which is correct? I'd always thought this window was until midnight and the later loans one until 5pm

spot on for me that! well said that man. the other sides of the coin were if we'd kept Trotters he was 20 as opposed to Rubys 25+ we've (or someone) has got 500k. You pays your money and you takes your choice.

Come on tell me the answer, put me out of my misery, who is the one that hasn't! I've been taking my 8 year old nephew this season and he thought Eardley's Christian names were Bloody Hell! Fortunately for Alessandra the moaners haven't got his name right yet so he might get a bit of leeway maybe a month or two whilst they rehearse 'Bloody hell Alessandra!!

Sorry to get back on topic but anyone think the lad might not want to go anywhere at the moment?

could put them in the stocks and get Smalley and Davies to shoot at them, but they could be there a long time

Asolutely bossed the midfield, playing with players that he probably dint know the names of. Started too deep for me then pushed further forward and showed that to be a defensive midfielder you don't have sit 5 yards in front of the centre backs. Was awesome . Just hope it wasn't a case of first game magicianship.

If we get more than £350k + add ons for him I will show my arse on the town hall steps.* PNE sound favourite to me which is why we have got JJ with them paying some of his wage * I would just like to point out that anything posted on this site is not legally binding

aside from the two goals it was nothing different from macca.. turned to the chaps near me at ht and said you know there will be some tonight on owtb who still say Macca was hiding. just loveyou guys,he's crap.

must have imagined this then. Mind you it was a nightmare that day. http://www.soccerbase.com/results3.sd?gameid=507695

The rarely wrong says £350k and is's going to be accepted. Plus poss £150k in add ons http://www.oldham-chronicle.co.uk/SPORTT01.html

on official site http://www.oldhamathletic.premiumtv.co.uk/...1227590,00.html a distinct absence of we've told them where to go we are not a selling club we have no need to sell we are trying to strengthen the team not sell our best young players most clubs trot out one of the above if only to bump the price up. the 'we'll keep you up to date' bit looks like a euphemism for 'we'll let you know when he's gone' Not looking good

Hi Lags Porter was 23 , my error. But getting back to the original point isn't the situation with Trotters the same, if he goes to an English club we go to a tribunal but if he crossed the border then we would get nowt? Just spotted the Senor's quote I only know this because it came up last week when a young player at Motherwell was linked with a move to Boro, the article said that if he waited for his contract to run out at the end of the season Motherwell would be due compo due to being under the age of 23. thanks chaps I need to do some more swatting!

Are you sure about this Senor? (sorry to doubt you ) But I thought the under 23 thing was something that applied only to England having been given dispensation by UEFA I thought Bosmans between countries occurred no matter what the age which is why the big clubs like Arsenal have all these foreign kids who they have picked up when their first contract has finished and they haven't had to pay a fee. I also thought Porter was only 22 when he left which is why we could have gone to a tribunal if he had gone to Plymouth.

Is it? i thought it was exactly the same. If he signs for Plymouth we agree a fee or go to tribunal but if he signs for a club from another national league we get nowt. That was my understanding, have I missed something? One more thing just because that Plymouth site says it's going to happen doesn't mean it will. It has been wrong before (just put the kiss of death on that now - he'll be in green and white by lunch tomorrow!

Hi DB hope you got home safely Can you tell me where your footage of the bother is again?

I think the saying is 'tar everyone with the same brush', but you may have left an apostophe out. I keep looking on youtube but can't find your footage. Please tell us where it is. Good luck in the next round. Keep the faith with stitch.

remember him taking a right wing corner with his left foot in the 6-0 thrashing of Hudders in '74 (scored 6 goals 3 times that season I think) The ball was headed out to where he'd moved to after taking it about 5-10 yards in from the goal line and 5 in from the touch line. He just volleyed it back in first time over everyone's heads right into the top far corner. Magic.

yes it is so that's gone. I do think they rather misjudged the current climate if they thought that was going to be funny

I think you might be missing the view point of the people I was talking about here TSB ( ) 'if he gets so good that he gets snapped up' then he will be a 'good for nothin' two timing disloyal , useless, money grabbing,son of a bitch, who we didn't want anyway!

[.4 games - 2 goals and once of them was the evrtone one which didn't take much creating. 4 passes before the shot the last time I looked .... but why let the truth get in the way of a good story? Are you a journalist?

People like a lot of what Davies can do and realise his undoubted ability. What they forget is that if he could do it all the time then he wouldn't be playing for us.

I do wonder if that sort of loan is going to be the only way forward for us when one looks at some of the silly money being mentioned for transfers - and that is without the wages. I see Millwall have paid £150k for Grabban which if it is a yardstick would price us out of going for anyone even as good as what we have, let alone better. I liked Grabban, thought he had potential but he has proved nothing yet neither with us nor Motherwell, and that seems like an awful lot of money to me. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...all/7200742.stm
