Re: The Transfer Window Rumours thread

Congratulations to Dan - the first poster this summer to use the phrase ‘over the line’ in relation to a transfer.

Dave

If he does sign what should it be

Penned a deal

or

Put pen to paper

One is never quite sure about these things

Over the line, in the building and on the grass.

Come on Elwood, get with the program.

Re: The Transfer Window Rumours thread

yes he was along with Leicester City's Kasey McAteer but that's gone quiet this week

Doing the rounds today is Abdelkahar Kadri

seen a few people getting excited about Kadri on twitter, all I know about him is he was part of a Kortrijk side who were very close to getting relegated from the Juliper pro league - am I missing something?

Will it be ‘QPR Ace signs for the City’? Why are they always ‘Aces’?

I remember being in town one afternoon and saw on one of the South Wales Echo stands that City had signed a "Manchester United STAR".

It was none other than that household name... Derek Brazil.

Also in the Echo , mid to late 70's " Italian star striker on trial at City " . My excitement was short lived when it turned out to be Tony Venditto , a waiter ( eventually restaurant owner) who I'd played alongside for City supporters f.c. the previous season in the sundsy league .He eventually signed for Cardiff Italians fc in the same league.

I remember that as well!

I last saw him about 10-12 years ago when he was the sports teacher at my granddaughters primary school!


I think he was also managing Haverfordwest at the time

"Willock to City. Done deal". Surely?

He kept that under his hat ! Played alongside him for the Italians for a couple of seasons..

He may take a bit to get back he'll be watching England in the pub, just a quick Google Marti Cifuentes took over 31st October maybe he didn't start him as much?

It was Ainsworth before him, wasn't it and they were in trouble.

Just a guess.

If the thread on the QPR fan site is anything to go by, it seems like Ainsworth bombed him out due to a lack of effort.

That was an interesting read. Willock sounds like a talent for sure, but it’ll be interesting to see what Bulut does with him given the comments about his work rate, or rather the lack of it.

I read that thread too. Alot of people dissing him but but for all that the impression that I got was they would have taken him back on in a heartbeat but couldn't afford what he was asking moneywise. The old fable about the fox and the grapes springs to mind.
