If we tell other clubs what kind of players we want and when we need them We'll ballacks up the deal.
RE: So what you're saying is Jay, a simple analogy for you. In fact a situation you've probably experienced. If you were a fat Barsteward and were dying for another cream bun, would you go to the bakers and say "I'm starving, if I don't have that calorific cardiac inducing elephants foot now I think I'll pass out".

But Nudger didn't say that. He didn't say the chairman should name names. You can't go after a centre half without the other club realising you want a centre half. It's sort of obvious when you make the enquiry.
RE: But Nudger didn't say that. He didn't say the chairman should name names. Granted but he did talk about time limits. So, in summary, I'm right and he's a knob

RE: i think we need a statement from the club of their intensions Do you seriously think that there is a Club in the championship that doesn't already know what we need and when we need them by.
