No strong or serious new connections reported anywhere
Newsnow gets most of the kites being flown by so called journalists and is currently saying
- we have backed out of the bidding contest for Shankland because our £200k offer was refused
- he's going to Rangers anyway
- we are not signing Kamara of Dundee as he's going to Cardiff/ Derby/ Rangers/ Celtic ( take your pick )
- Malmo player used to play at Ostersunds ( but is a first choice at Malmo so how serious is this?)
-All quiet on Flanagan of Sunderland
- Eastern Daily Press is reporting we may be interested in the expensive Nelson Oliveira of Norwich - looks just like the expensive J Ayew to me and why would we want any expensive player nowadays?
Back pocket of GP more productive place for journalists to look
Meanwhile WBA sign Holgate from Everton
