    Simon francis is apparently quite highly rated so it must be a loan deal, id be quite happy to take him on especially if he can play along the back four, gives added cover to williams at left back.

    No bad signing at all if it happens.

    From sheff utd web site - player description

    A utility defender or midfielder, Simon was so highly thought of that Neil Warnock splashed out an initial £200,000 to sign him from under the noses of Sunderland. An England youth international, Simon was rejected by Notts County as a youngster but was given a chance by Bradford City and went on to make over 50 appearances for the Bantams in his teenage years.

    I wouldnt mind a bit of that. Devany looks similar to shuker, and we need a good centre half.

    We can dream can't we?
