Not surprised because N'Zogbia is a better player now but they really need to start the striker search now. How much players upfront do you think the club needs to bring in?

Adam Rooney, striker at Inverness.

Oh the FA chairman would love that since he's a City fan, he'll be aiming to do it to the other top teams next.

I think the FA will rule in United's favour tbh. Blackburn are just making a mockery of themselves.

I can remember him scoring that hat trick in one of his first games. Thought he was Wayne's brother or something at the time

He's already played in England and it didn't really work out for him.

Maybe now that he's a more mature footballer he'd do better, obviously I'm hoping my mate is right though and he joins us.

Surprised Celtic aren't in for him since he's from ROI, that's what they usually do.

Yeah.

He also scored a hat trick against us last season

Celtic have signed a few Northern Irish players too, strange since you would presume they would go to Rangers.

Yep.

They only have 5 ROI players the now, one of them having just returned from a loan spell with us, Richie Towell. I really hope he signs on with us again though he was brilliant for us 2nd half of last season and he'll probably just warm the bench for Celtic.

Ivan Sproule returned to Hibs didn't he, I liked him and he was one player who Jeff Stelling really got hyped up about on Soccer Saturday.

Yep he has, he may have lost a bit of his lightening pace but he'll still be quicker than anyone else in our team, and to add to that he's so passionate about Hibs and he'll give 110% every game.

With a more mature head on now I think he could prove fellow Hibs fans wrong and be better this time round than in his 1st spell.

Novo must be ****ting himself....

LOL. Good to see someone passionate about your team back! Hopefully last season will be improved on.

Hibs buying Adam Rooney is a good thing for us it means he won't be going to Celtic to improve their front line Jelavic and Lafferty are the only 2 strikers we need.

[bbfan1991]

Journalist from the Sunday Mirror claims on Twitter they got a text from Phil Jones' agent to say that the United deal is completed, well I hope this is true.

[bbfan1991]

I don't understand why Liverpool would apparently put in another bid for Phil Jones, especially when he rejected their first offer in favour of the Manchester United offer.

Surely they would just move on to trying to bid for other targets before other clubs pounce?

memories..

[bbfan1991]

Nate you need to bump up the Villa thread, i'll help.

Apparently first Grayson heard about Villa was earlier on his holiday in Barbados through his mate but hasn't had no contact.

[King Gizzard]

Haha, McLeish and Grayson arent in the running, just media spouting crap because we do our business privately. We're not in crisis, we only spoke to RM as one of many managers we've spoken too

We'll get someone good, I'm not worried

It'll take time but one of the things that is worrying is that if it'll be too much a distraction and plus there is planning for next season, the rush for new signings, getting rid of a few etc to happen.

Now go to the Villa thread ha ha.

Simple.

Either the rumor he turned us down is false, or the rumor we're back in with another offer is false.

I would say it's the second one, how about you?

Liverpool strike me as a club who would just move on but you don't know what to believe.

[Locke.]

Not sure.

Not really bothered either way, don't think we need another CB

[bbfan1991]

Which areas do you think they need to strengthen in?

[Locke.]

Left back, 2 wingers, back up striker, back up keeper.

And a new CM if we loan Shelvey out, as well as selling Poulsen.

I was going to say LB.. I mean Johnson can attack too but there's better quality out there, some defenders can do both or there's those that can only do one of the positions.

It's like a press conference in here
