Good signing We're in need of a goal scoring AM, cos let's face it Raddi et al don't exactly chip in with their fair share!!
Still could do with a couple more though
Agreed Hoons
Don't know hoe true it is but I've heard we're looking at Ward from Wolves and the Burke deal is still on the cards.
We must have offered him quite a lot more than Palace then which is no surprise. I'd have preferred Burke but still this is a good signing.
Heard we're still after Burke caniggia - however that's rumour.
Goal scoring AM? Lewis McGugan anyone?

Hope so Boxer
SHH, yes McGugan scores goals and looked consistent for all of 5 games at the start of the season but he then tailed off. Plus Body can play wide and still score goals. He's not hugely quick though so we're still lacking pace in the midfield.
I'm not a particularly big fan of Boyd, but he's a wide player and is shows that AMc knows what he's doing.
For me pace is what we desperately need - McLeish was so right when he said we were 'one-paced' throughout the Watford match. At least he knows what needs doing to make this squad promotion hopefuls
Our offer "absolutely blew Crystal Palace's offer out the water."
Signal of intent.
Boro fans rave about Boyd, so I'm interested. Is he left sided, though. Is he close to being a carbon copy of Reid. Or Reid after a diet, maybe.
Apparently Palace wanted to change the deal to stage payments at the last minute, cheeky asses.
Seems as if you're payment is up front, so he's your boy.
Enjoy!
link? Wont believe it until its in writing with this season forest shirt on :P
I understand the skepticism after seeing a whole host of bullshitters on this site, however this one is done and dusted. It's been confirmed by the same guy who told me of McLaughlin's transfer and I posted that before that was up on the OS or BBC too
It is understood at our end that you will be playing him as a midfielder, not a winger, according to Fergie that is.
And why on earth would Fergie know our tactics for a player we haven't even confirmed signing yet?
Awesome
any news on burke? Heard things have broken down abit.
Been a pretty good window regardless all in all
Heard we're getting Kightly. This would be huge.
That's still a rumour Boxer, but it would be nice. Boyd is 98% done, and we are after at least one other signing - probably not Burke though as Brum are quids in thanks to their keeper.
FAF - Boyd deal is done. I have confirmation of that - I wouldn't post anything unless it was 100% as I know that people get so much stick for posting stuff that is 99% done.
I have a few friends who are journalists, one who is an agent and a couple who work for football clubs.
I won't ever post an article stating we have definitely done something unless we have! Otherwise I turn out to look like a fool
Gomes has gone to Hoffenheim from Spurs. I know we'd settled on Darlow as number 1, but I'm just so happy we're not getting this burk - rather hoping for a different Burke...

Keep your pants on, just saying what Fergie is quoted as saying in our local paper, I would imagine he perhaps knows a little more about it than anyone on here.
