Derby County will be signing a number of players in the summer.
However a considerable amount will be on a Bosman ruling Free agents. Naturally this means that certain players that are free agents will sign and some won't, it is difficult to predict who out of the possible candidates will sign. (The reason being many clubs come in for free agents and there becomes a bidding war/wage spiral), to avoid this Nigel Clough has been extremely successful in building up a reputation of signing players from league 1 and 2 and giving them a chance making Derby County a more attractive club for the free agent. Also Nigel works very hard on pre-contract agreements.
Derby will be looking to make actual transfers during the summer too i. e anything more than a nominal fee.
Matty Fryatt - Hull City 700k+
Aiden White - Leeds United 500k+
Derby could potentially make some excellent additions to the squad this summer with a small budget especially considering they may accumulate a significant sum from player sales, even without the sale of Will Hughes (Arsenal, Man City, Fulham), John Brayford (Cardiff, Swansea, West Ham) and Jeff Hendrick (Aston Villa, Sunderland).
Aiden White to Derby? About as likely as Shearer to Wolves!
This was believable until you said Derby and attractive in the same sentance

Fryatt's worth a lot more thn £750,000

Would be a top signing alongside beavon.
If I was the leicester manager i'd give vardy to preston he's not good enough for championship, and if leicester get promoted he's defo not good enough for prem

Rochdale attacking midfielder andrew tutte rumoured to be joining bradford on loan with a view to a perm
Most of the rumours about players from Rochdale have been true regarding City, hope this is true Tutte would bring some much needed energy into the middle which we need. Add Jason Kennedy on a free at the end of the season and we will have a strong midfield
02 Mar 2013 11:33:01
Hope this is true wot a midfielder just wot were looking for much needed midfield talent all I can say is rochdale must be crazy to lose this boy it does seem very strange for a club like dale to let such a talent go must be more to it but who cares when he pulls a city top on up the bantams
Hopefully an exhange deal for gary jones to come bck as assistant manager to hill
Why oh why would Rochdale let the most talented midfielder go tutte is the only one we have who can think and cover the ground. Mr Hill please sort out the defence and keeper we also need goals 11 games to go we will need to win at least 7 get rid of the deadwood that coleman left you coleman would not have known a good footballer if one kicked him try and keep us up Keith and at end of season get rid of at least 12 players and get your own team together we the fans know you can do it but not we the rubbish players you wre left with

Walsall set to name Paul Furlong as assistant manager and complete the loan signings of Derby duo Ben Davies and Nathan Tyson. {Ed034's Note - isnt tyson at millwall on loan??
Tyson is also injured. Clough won't let Davies go until the end of the season, we need him to cover injuries.
Id love to know where this guy has got the rumour from he's maybe right about paul furlong but tyson is complete utter tosh

Huddersfield Town are looking at bringing in Liverpool youngster Conor Coady who plays in midfield, also they are looking at bringing in goalkeeper Dean Bouzanis of Oldham Athletic in the summer as backup to Alex Smithies
Doubt we'll be getting Coady in, and Lloyd Allinson will be coming up to the first team pretty soon for backup when Bennett retires.
Bouzy won't go from first team to back up, plus he loves the club and the fans. You will more likely move for Cisak as he is out of contract as well and wants out
Doubt that. Bennett will probably drop to third choice with Allinson going on loan and Bouzanis (or another) as second choice
If we need a new keeper and I feel we do, the German keeper at Preston would be my pick, he would give Smithies a real run for his money.
Deano wouldn't go to Udds if he was 2nd choice.
He loves our club and the fans love him as well.
Love for a club means nothing in football! If Town double his wages & offer him Championship football then his head will be turned!
Town won't be able to offer him championship football next season though.

Young starlet Jamie Andrews has agreed a two year contract with Torquay United after being released by championship club Bolton Wanderers. Torquay have signed Andrews in a push to get out of the relegation scrap.
Bolton didn't have a player by that name.
Jaime Andrews Bolton player I don't think so. Never heard of the lad the only Andrews we have at Bolton goes by the name of Keith. I think you have the wrong club

Swindon town owners plan to have a new manager in place by Saturdays game against Coventry. Rumoured in the Daily m to be Steve Coppell {Ed034's Note - would be a good choice
I was told it is definaitely Tisdale, they have agreed compensation and he will be at a presss release tomorrow morning.
Told by who?
Kevin mcdonald to be named in morning
By Jed
Plus Stev Coppell is in line for the Coventry job apparently!
Swindon paper says that the new boss at Swindon is going to be Kevin MacDonald. Welcome Kevin to SN1.
COYRsssss
Kevin McDonald is new boss of Swindon but i'm interested in Coventry Citys affairs another transfer embargo ridiculous but the news that Steve Coppell could b in for managers job excites me just hope SISU Manage to file their financial affairs in the next 3weeks or it will b another hard season without no new signings P you S B hopefully a good home win tomorrow against Swindon
I wouldn't have minded McDonald at Coventry. He used to play for us. He's the only villa manager who's got any decent results in recent years, but thankfully they didn't bother appointing him permanently. Good luck to him, but Coppell will get us back to the 1st division if he doesn't leave in a strop.

Carlisle United Manager Gregg Abbott will be looking for a new job in the summer as the Owners will not be renewing his contract. Graham Kavanagh will also be leaving the club due to being disciplined by the club for bullying players.
If the kavanagh bit is true could that be why we are playing so badly
Heard first hand that kav has no man management skills need to get rid of both hopefully this weekend after we get beat
If that was true which I think is not he would have been sacked
