    Mark Lawn insists a big signing is coming and this seems more realistic than other suggestions, especially if a 1 year contract linked to appearances is in force.

    If you say the word orange really slowly it sounds like “gullible”

    'Transfer Jim' has photoshopped images of Balotelli and Carroll signing, he's taking the pee / showing off his skills.

    Actually, they're technically not too bad at all :laughing:

    But yeah, it's nonsense.

    Didn't know who the black guy was and both photos look doctored. However if we are making a huge signing, Carroll doesn't look outlandish. He wants to play, has been released by a mid table championship club and failed a medical. A contract with an appearance and a get out clause could be beneficial to both parties. By January, there will be championship clubs desperate to improve their goals tally and if he has proved his fitness it could be good for him as well as us. Might be total bollocks but I don't see Mark Lawn as a rumour monger. I didn't think Walker or Smallwood would sign but time will tell on this one.

    Like I pointed out earlier, he was a few medical forms away from playing Champions League football with Belgian champions Club Brugge.

    I'm not sure a player that holds ambitions like that will suddenly give up and join a lower half League Two team.

    It doesn't make any sense.

    @Idlebantam@Idlebantam has debunked that. I think your pov is based on the cityvent twitter account unless you know Mark well and he is "insisting" to you?

    It’s not massively different from all those who were wetting themselves that Watt could play for a top end championship team.

    Can't argue with that but when we signed Chris Waddle, it made even less sense and he then went back to the prem

    I'd hold back on any more signings until January now. Have a war chest for the final push.

    Actually, this particular photo does lie. It's been photoshopped. If you want to see the original pre-photoshop, have a look at the City website when the club announced the signing of Richie Smallwood. It's spooky.

    Can I suggest that the next time you have an 'exclusive', you keep it to yourself until you've had chance to verify it!

    We still need another RB an a RW. I also believe we may see some outgoings in the next few weeks, The likes of Threlkeld, Kelleher, Staunton, FCD, Songo’o, Cook may depart. In the case of the latter two, we would need adequate replacements on top of the 2 positions we already need to strengthen upon

    mid we do well then I’m sure that war chest will be vastly bloated by the pay on the gate fans
