NothernRam Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Peschi-solido clap clap clap clap clap Pesci-solido He was 36 with us, and i think Phillips is far better than him. Not true. Peschi was signed when he is 33. Released a week after his 36 b'day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastKentRam Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Both of those teams you have mentioned have very similar budgets to us according to Glick. We are supposed to be challenging next year, so i really can't see why we wouldn't be able to offer him wages Norwich, Leeds and Brighton could. If what Glick has said is true then yes i agree, actions speak louder than words so we'll wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardifframs Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 http://www.tribalfootball.com/articles/derby-target-birmingham-veteran-phillips-1539211 Derby County are eyeing Birmingham City striker Kevin Phillips. The 37 year-old comes off contract at St Andrew's in June and yet to hear from Blues about a new deal. Proven championship scorer and we seem to be linked with him every year, surely not true at 37 I think secretly,we are aiming for the Midlands Masters title Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh dragon Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Phillips will be 38 in July. So he can **** off. toataly agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANGERMAN1 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Not interested one bit in Phillips! Glenn Murray is a good player tho with already 20+ goals this season and bags of ambition. Considering our strikeforce is poor, Adding Murray and/or La Fondre would considerably bolster our attack. Both proven goalscorers in League 1. The likes of Hoolahan and Holt at Norwich were proven at League 1 and took it straight into the championship. I think that can be also expected from players of La Fondre and (more relevantly) Murray. Hope we get the pair of them to be honest!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorksopRam Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Without seeing him play, I think I'd prefer Mackail-Smith from the Posh: 24 goals and 10 assists this season. I know he's been mentioned before, and I think Clough has highlighted him or something in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he's been mentioned before, and I think Clough has highlighted him or something in the past. Yeah he's been playing very well this season. Did the same before their championship season as well. Think he'd flourish in a better side.

nfb Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Sorry but Murray is 27, never had a season as good as this one b4, and i think its because of Poyet, (the man i wanted as manager at DCFC b4 non league Nigel came to 'inspire' us) I agree with a previous post that Poyet has got the best from him, and i doubt NC with his 'crossed arms' approach will... Poyet is a 'thinking mans' manager, NC has yet to develop ( if he ever will) into that...

Thought maybe in the 24 region. But looking at his stats he has done well everywhere with the exception, perhaps, of carlisle (Age 21-23??) But perhaps a slow starter??. Is true that he has been in a successful team. Currently with Brighton and at a play-off playing Rochdale. But wasn't he playing at Rochdale with La Fondre??. They may both be hitting their prime now but could be capable of stepping-up don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may both be hitting their prime now but could be capable of stepping-up don't you think? Now here is a blast from the past re an ex-england striker, when you start thinking about why we sign prospects from lower division read the extract below re Ian Wright It was during his spell at Dulwich Hamlet FC that he was spotted by Crystal Palace scout Peter Prentice and was invited for a trial at Selhurst Park, where he impressed rookie manager Steve Coppell. Wright was soon a regular in the Palace first team and finished second top scorer in his first season with 9 goals Now can someone please tell me who the hell is Dulwich Hamlet FC. People get hung up about what league a player is in. In a footballers career as with any sporting career a bit of luck is needed at the right time to spring board someone. Someone has already mentioned he may be a late started if he is and he is just about to kick on then let it be here I say. If he scores 13 that is has many as Hulse scored and we could have him here for longer than Hulse would have as he is 6yrs and more than our strikers we have here this season.

He's playing for a class manager in a team heading for the Championship, with a new ground to play in next season in front a minimum of 14,000 fans (thats how many Brighton fans have bought season tickets already for next season). There is absolutely no reason for him to be interested in coming to PP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poyet is proving to be a good manager true, and their new stadium is going to be fantastic for them, But I don't think it's a far fetched target. Not as far fetched as Bowyer IMO.
