I know he's been mentioned in other posts, but I have a Bradford City-supporting friend who says that according to their message boards we are battling it out with Bradford to sign Dean Furman, and that currently we are the favourites.
The Bradford website itself mentions it at the bottom of an article about Peter Thorne signing a new contract:

My friend says: "Furman is f ing awesome! Hes just a no-nonsense central midfielder that chases people down, never pulls out of a challenge, never complains, runs for 90 mins and wins his fair share of headers for a smaller player. hes the best young player we’ve had in years."
So it sounds like he would be a useful acquisition even if not neccessarily a like-for-like replacement for Taylor....
Just a rumour with a tiny bit of back-up, nothing more...
