This is just speculation but I was watching the Bradford game and thought their young striker Nakhi Wellslooked very promising, maybe not premier league quality but the way it is going looks like we will be a championship club next year and could see him teaming up with Le Fondre very well as Pogrebnyak would probably leave if we got relegated

CONFIRMED: Reading have completed the signing of Crawley Town Midfielder Hope Akpan. As a reading fan I am bitterly disappointed as we need to concentrate on staying in the PL but yet we bring in a L1 player even tough McDermott said he's looking for PL experience. What does everyone else think?

If former Watford player Danny Graham is sold by Swansea to QPR, Sunderland, Reading or Norwich, Watford will get 20% of the transfer fee because they have a sell on clause. However, 15% of this 20% will go to Carlisle because they have a sell on clause of their own. So basically, three clubs receive money if Danny Graham is sold.

I know we all get fed up with this rumour, myself included but I have heard that Bournemouth are set to launch a bid for Swindon's Matt Ritchie. Thought to be around the 1 million pound mark. Swindon desperately need the money (lol) at the moment in order to keep their own promotion push going. Thie financial restrictions at the moment are so tight that PDC has even suggested he will spend his own money in order to keep the 3 loan players with the club currently have, including ex Cherries centre midfielder Danny Hollands.

Off topic of LFC but...

Think La Liga would win if there were a charity play off between La Liga lX vs Premier League.

Simply because the majority of the players already play with each other for Spain Bar the likely (mouthwatering) front three of:

Messi Falcao Ronaldo

-Actually very Nice...what would your ideal team for prem or La Liga be?

Can i get a honest answer about the Gary Hooper
situation. I am a Celtic fan (get that out the way)
but i feel it is a total lack of ambition for him to sign for anyclub in england below top half of EPL, or even top 6 or 7 clubs. He is winning titles and is in last 16 of CL so i don't see how things can get better for him. In my option it's about the money as we all know our scottish league is in tatters and we got no money to pay top players. Our scouting team works wonders to unearth these diamonds but we never achieve EPL transfer fees! Wanyama is another example, i put him in the £15 to £20m bracket but i bet he goes for less than £10m! Does anyone agree with me or have any comments?

Brian Kelly

Believable5 Unbelievable3

Don't take this the wrong way but leaving scotland to play in epl has to be a massive step up, when you think only celtic are going to win the spl, so hooper will only get better playing in the best league in the world. never worth £15m or £20m maybe £8m max.

Agree2 Disagree3

Winning titles in scotland doesn't mean much, even less now with rangers gone

Agree5 Disagree3

I would be the first to agree that Celtic's league form seems to be slipping prob because Rangers have gone bust, but, Celtic are known for the fans so in a more challenging league such as EPL, Parkhead would be rammed every week 60k+ attendances. Winning the title is Scotland means we are champions of our country so deserve some ackowledgement and out europe form has been outstanding, this season in particular.

Blackpool have been interested to learn that keiron dyer has been released from QPR, this would give another option in midfield the question is would he be happy when Karl oysten offers him £90 a week wage??

Believable1 Unbelievable0

The £90 a week, was a seasonal offer only.. and is £45 more a week than they would offer dyer..

Believable5 Unbelievable1

To many loan players now, no club has ever got better being build on loanees...

Agree4 Disagree1

But you can send them back when they don't live up to their reputations e.g. Church. What if Town had wasted money on him.
