No doubt there will be lots of speculation in the coming days maybe keep this thread open for any news and targets that fellow posters see and hear about ?
I'll start looks like we missed out on Jordan Williams
Portsmouth have won the race to sign Barnsley defender Jordan Williams on a free transfer ahead of West Brom and Cardiff
We’re in for a Scottish midfielder that I’d not heard of before until ten minutes ago according to this.

Raheem Conte has signed a new contract with the Bluebirds
The 21-year-old has agreed a one-year deal in the Welsh capital, with the option included for a further year!
Interesting that WOL indicate that bulut and the board will sit down next week to thrash out transfer plans - if this is true I wonder what has been happening to date as surely this was one of the agreements that bulut wanted nailed down before he signed according to "sauces"Quote:

That's shocking if true. Transfer plans for the summer should have started weeks agoQuote:

Agreed, that article came as a surprise - complacent is the word that springs to mind.Quote:

Still, I've heard that plans are well in hand. Can't moan about that though.
What are the chances of it being true, bearing in mind that it is WOL reporting it.Quote:

But in the absence of anything else from the club then people will fill the silence - and don't say why should the club tell us their plans as they are asking for money from us and those on the fence probably want some assurances that the shit show of recent seasons is going to change - for mugs like me I'm already in and paid upQuote:

My Google-ing skills aren’t good enough to answer this.
What date did we sign our first player last summer?
The lack of activity is already killing me but I think it was still 2-3 weeks later than this?
Goutas July 5th, Meite July 7th, Ramsey July 12th I think, with Siopis coming in August.Quote:
