singe Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 (edited) MENOAFC @MENOAFC 1m Just found out who the striker @matt_chambers_ is referring to is. You'll be happy, I would imagine. #oafc Bloody tease!!! Some reference to John Lennon? Yoko Ono? He's from Liverpool. Rooney is a Scouser.(the fat one) ergo Rooney we will sign. It's a sing I tell ya!!! Edited July 11, 2013 by singe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshgaz Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I'm surprised were chasing a 5th forward. Hope Jose isn't off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deyres42 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I'm surprised were chasing a 5th forward. Hope Jose isn't off. Given two of them are Clarke-Harris and Millar I'd be more stunned if we wasn't chasing at least one more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave78 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 The dodgy rumour's page has us down as signing Garner soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolatic Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 The dodgy rumour's page has us down as signing Garner soon. At 6' 8", he'd be a feckin' good CB/CF if he wasn't 60 years old. Sorry, wrong Garner. Bloody good fast bowler though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Rooney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolatic Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 So, free agents: Bowerman (No thanks - we can do better that him) Sodge (Could still do some damage) McGurk (See Bowerman) Blake (If he's still got it in him - seems to have been around a long time) De Vita (According to Swindon Town supporting step-son, far too inconsistent. Probably lived off his success at Livingston) Sharp (Probably out of our price range) Elliott (If he doesn't cost too much) A Rooney (Definitely, but I doubt we would be the only one after him) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisbrogan Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 So, free agents:Bowerman (No thanks - we can do better that him) Bowerman could yet turn out to be a very good player. Was surprised that he was released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microcuts Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Didn't Johnson (I am sick of "LJ" already!) suggest he wanted a player more able to hold up play and bring others in? Or is that MacDonald? I don't know enough about many of the players on that list to speculate on who might fit that description, anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midsblue Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Hayter or Madden? Dad helps out son? Of free agents, Sodje's the type of bruiser who McDonald and Baxter could play off and he's capable at CB. Ticks the boxes. The rest of free agents; I agree with Bristol Latics but would add Blake and Elliott to the no thanks but think De Vita is a possibility. Billy Sharp - you're having a laugh. No way could we afford him and he'll have clubs above us chasing him. Think it'll be Rooney - Matt Chambers said a good name and probably tongue in cheek with name 'Rooney' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyPimp Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Matt Smith scored against us : back on loan...? Nice thinking outside the box. I'm saying Elliott, Sodje or even Garner following this news: Preston free up some cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayItLivo Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Billy Sharp isn't a free agent iirc. Think he's still contracted to Southampton but has been told he's surplus to requirements and is available for transfer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross2509 Posted July 11, 2013 Author Share Posted July 11, 2013 Would be surprised if it was Adam Rooney, thought to be on a big wage and also Swindon have only just signed him permanently for a couple of years after his loan. Would they want to ship him out straight away? I suppose that possibly they would want to loan him out for say 6 months so that they can get their finances sorted out or something? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22713965 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
