Heartwork Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Kev McNaughton followed by Paul Quinn are Cardiff's cult hero's.KENNY MILLER signing for Cardiff apparently, wasn't expecting us to win the battle. Goodwillie porbably will sign after his court case Thursday. And FILIP KISS is to sign for Cardiff on a season long loan from Slovakian side Slovan Bratislava! Miller's only been at Bursaspor for a few months? Why would he turn down Europa League football and regular starts for one of the top clubs in a rising league to play for Cardiff?

Heartwork Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Suppose that's fair then. I'm sure he'd rather go to Rangers though and they haven't given up iirc, they're just being stubborn with their bidding. Bursaspor don't seem to want to lose him though so he might have to stay, that or try to buy out his contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pukey Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 i have a feeling someones hacked the Nottingham Evening Post http://www.thisisnottingham.co.uk/Loan-Signing-Reds/story-12974206-detail/story.html "this would sort out one of Forests' main problems as Tevez has had previous experience at playing Left Back" Have to say I laughed at that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bursapor want to get rid of him for the right price which is what we payed, first team football guaranteed here as well I guess, maybe not at Rangers, last chance in England as well. Medical should be done tomorrow, was probably in Cardiff today watching the game. Miller would suit Malky's philosophy Perfectly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hilly_boro Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Just been told by an old Uni mate in Nottingham that Stuart Parnaby could be the next ex-Boro player to join Forest. Seeing as Gunter is a pretty decent RB, can only see this being for versatility or cover or its utter balls. Just seems a bit of a **** rumour for someone to start Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cms186 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 nah, we wont be after a right back, we have gunter and a decent back up in moloney, as well as Chambers being able to play there, right back is one of the positions we are pretty strong in. I would imagine people will be linking us with loads of any old McClaren players now hes signed a couple of them though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hilly_boro Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 assuming of course that right back is his only position he cant play left back can he? Can play anywhere along the back reasonably well and played a few games DM too. Just played predominantly as a DR. Not a bad player to have for versatility but also just a completely average footballer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cms186 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 ffs, i liked the 7 subs rule, how does it reduce squads if theres no pressure to use all 7 subs and virtually all teams will have more than 18 players anyway, should keep it at 7 but make it a rule that 2 of them have to be academy products or something Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielM_90 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Yeh prefer the 7 myself, although the extra 2 slots dont always get used for it it does give youngsters the experience of matchday and possibly getting a few minutes they wouldnt usually. As Brez said dont see why they wont keep it and some teams name just 5 or so as there under no obligation to fill bench up. Dont agree with the argument of saving a bit of extra money as I cant see hardly any teams selling a ciple more players now this has come into effect.

MIR17 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 All it's going to do is reintroduce the value of teams having a clogging, jack of all trades type footballer, which what I thought we were trying to spend millions on developing technical youngsters to eradicate? Seems like a big step backwards to me. Of course, I am completely biased, as this is awful news for teams like ourselves with strength in depth. Ridiculous that it's been done at such short notice to the start of the season as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielM_90 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Not so much the championship but think the decision is even worse for L1 and L2 as youngsters do get on the bench fairly often and get given chances perhaps they may of got.

GavinLP1987 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I actually made the OP for this thread a couple of minutes before the site shut down. Was gutted. In my boredom, I wrote a chant for Mackay when he joined and got five minutes of pseudo-fame when someone made a fb group for it. Made an obama-style image for him too. With Earnie, Miller, Goodwillie, Mason, Parkin, kids like Jarvis, we're now being linked with Derbyshire. That's too many strikers. It's not like Derbyshire will up us a level. That's without even talking about Bellamy coming back. http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q277/letsflipthisplaceup/Picture9-1.png Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
