Anyone want to set up a twitter on behalf of Boards soccer forum and we will see how much speel with can get out between now and the end of the transfer window?!:pac:

This sounds like a good idea. When Agent_BSF reaches 15,000 followers, we restart the Jong Il-Gwan rumour :cool:.

We WILL get this man a move to Europe. What a player.

We'd need everyone who posts on the soccer forum who also has a twitter account to follow it.
We would also need some who don't have accounts to sign up.
Plenty of retweets needed too from everyone to get the ball rolling.

Only fear is it's the last couple of days of the window.

Get it started I say!

Planning the whole thing on a publically viewable forum mightn't be the smartest lads. Start one of those private user group thingies.

Since its Panthro's idea I say he should start it.

In fairness if they're stupif enough to believe the rumours they're hardly gonna search, some of them really are that stupid.

Someone will though, no point in taking silly risks if you're going to go to all that trouble in the first place.

That North Korean player prank was done perfectly and nobody was ever the wiser.

I didn't think that idea would get much of an uptake to be honest, but I do appreciate the backing gents!
Sadly, I'm not a regular Twitter person, so the floor's open to anyone who wants to play "ITK" guy for Boards for the next few days!

(I hear Asamoah Gyan "dreams" of a return to the Premier League, QPR are on red alert...wink wink;):pac:)

Good buy in each case.

Spurs have gotten themselves a cracking player methinks.

Dembele to Spurs has ruined my day tbh, fantastic signing for them

Ouch for a few clubs.

Del Piero possibly about to join Sion. Not where I would have expected him to end up to be honest. Gattusso is there now as well. Do they have lots of money or something?

Mad money.

It is mad money alright but how many transfer these days are for mad money.

I created a new thread in the social group that we had for the North Korean lad but it got no responses so I presumed no one was bothered :pac: It's still there if anyone wants a look.

Red Crow

Spurs have done all right so far. They're still lacking a couple of players for fourth again though but I image they'll comfortably finish fifth unless Newcastle prove me wrong again.

3.5 hours drive to Milano, 2.5 hours drive Torino, wages wouldn't be huge (they'd get a lot more in the US, Gulf or China) but it's close to home and they will play every game.

I guess it's as close to Italy as you can get, but it seems like you're going out with a whimper and without the financial reward to compensate for it.

Seaneh

it's semi-retirement, god like status amongst fans and easy money if you ask me. And you don't have to move your family.

Just seen on SSN that QPR are in talks with Real Madrid over signing Esteban Granero.

Captain Morgan Freeman

Didn't Gatusso spend the last few years talking about going back to rangers when he left Milan? I guess their demotion to division 3 changed his mind.

Sky Sport 24 claiming Real are on the verge of signing Debuchy. Already agreed a fee of€6-7m.

Kevin Feely is on trial at Charlton, the selfish part of me would rather see him playing for Kildare but hopefully he makes it over there. Would Bohemians be getting a fee?

Rangers weren't allowed sign anyone when he signed for Sion.

Was a case of waiting for a transfer embargo to end or taking an offer right away. I reckon he just didn't fancy waiting, indefinitely, for rangers to be able to sign players.

Berbatov to Juve all but done. He redirected his flight to Florence to Munich to meet Juve's representatives and sign for them.

Quite the cocktease is Berba.

He was getting a connection through Munich all along but then didn't get on the connecting flight to Florence and flew to Turin instead.

It wasn't a private jet.

Marty McFly

Is it true that Fiorentina payed for the flight? Be brilliant if it was.

Apologies you're right, I just re-read it there. They did pay for his flight though, so it's still slightly cheeky.

Marty McFly

Sky Italia now saying hes turned down Juve and is flying back to England for talks with Fulham , the man knows how to work the window.

he's just in it for the air miles lads.

€1.8m a season in wages for him? Bargain if true. We pay backup keeper Jaroslav Drobny that

Fiorentina not happy with Berbatov


"At this point we're happy he didn't sign - He did not deserve this city, this shirt and what it represents."
