Alright RB.
...Today we signed two young lads, both on scholarships.
Liam Henderson, from Hartlepool & Ewan Clarke from Notts County. Both 16 year old strikers. The academy manager David Dodds reckons they both have 'immense potential.'
Welcome to Watford lads.

Rumour is & its just that as Francis arrives Mahon leaves for Birmingham City. He will be part of a cash + player(Mahon )deal for Forsell. I'm not sure about this.Forsell doesnt seem to be the player he was after his serious injury. Where are the irons in the fire. We're chasing a 20 yo reserve team striker from Manchester Utd ! Crumbs.This isn t the way to go. Missed out on Zakuani & Chipperfield(Ozzie Johnno mark 2). HELP SOS ! Only good news is with Kuszcak signing for Manchester Utd Foster is all set to return home.

I'd like to see Forsell at the Vic, he has the talent IMO, and AB could help him on his way to produce the form we know he's capable of.
Not a great deal going on, but all in good time, I still think we'll have a stronger squad than we do now when we visit Goodison on the 19th.
Like to see us getting some prem proven players not just CC players who have potential.

B@stards! At least we have plenty other prospects at the club, although I had heard good things about this boy aswell, really makes me think some form of procedure should be in place to prevent this happening, I mean how much compensation are we gonna recieve? Peanuts I bet On the other hand, great news about Foster returning!

Well GB he did come from the Os originally & as hes 19 I dont think we 'll even get a brass farthing. Apparently the Academy staff didnt think he'd make it which makes you wonder is their judgement better than that of the Woolwich mob ? The compensation agreements currently in place always conspire against so called smaller teams.Its a cartel thing. The rich get richer the poor get poorer. Its killing football & has been doing so for a decade or more.

Nothing has happenend with the rumour pertaining to FOrsell for Mahon either. Bad luck Sussexeagle you've had the heart ripped out of your team.Ligertwood was a potential target for us & that didnt come about either. Good news though.Hornets are now in PES5 in the new kitservers in their centenary kit !

Same old story isn't it As for Jobi McAnuff SE, I haven't heard anything tbh, it may just be pure rumours. He's a left winger isn't he??

Do you mean PES6 ovechkin8? I agree, think the Forsell rumour was a good one, and would have been a decent signing, as he has a bit to prove ala King so AB could've done a good job, but oh well... I'm bored, have an exalt

Does Joseph Desire the Job?
Joseph Desire Job is currently trainin with us after bein release by Boro. His fitness levels are being assessed and we'll see how he gets on.
Also, unlikely that we'll get McAnuff I think, cos apparently Dowie wants to raid his old club, and also Bolton are interested too, a few of around £1.2 mill has been mentioned.

And apparently we're in for Carl Cort from Wolves for £1.5 mill, Palace are after him aswell. He has a lot of Prem experience and could work well with Marlon IMO.

Hallo there GB .Interesting news.Job has never fulfilled his potential that he showed at the 98 WC .But I think if AB can get his mind right he would be an excellent acquisition Not sure about Cort.I think hes a limited player full stop. He hasnt the skill or potential of a Young say(Young for u21 & then full honours if he keeps progressing). About PES6 GB. Its out & you can order it from Japan as WE11 & I'm sure it has Watford in as Herts Stags or somesuch nonsense. I'm still playing PES5 at 3 stars (help might be because I've never bothered with any of the training set ups or learning about formations etc etc or learing those pad button combos ;D) & struggling to avoid 0-0 draws. But our glorious new centenary kits have been created for any kitserver. No sign of the Vic in any stadium servers as yet . Watsons 3.0 option file inc.all the new boys Blades & Royals too & team line ups with O'Ceruill in still & none of the current signings.Havent tried it yet though.

Hey Ovechkin8, think it's just you & me on here! Think Job would be a waste of wages tbh, unless AB performs another miraculous miracle - it could happen... Agree with your views on Cort, but he may find a new lease of life at the Vic? Or am I bein too hopeful hehe PES6 - You could order them from Japan, but will they play on a UK PS2, I ain't got mine chipped... I've unlocked an extra star and only play it on 6 stars It's the best footy game out imo. When I get it I'll get that save file definately.

Doubt Rossi would come to us from Man Utd tbh, he'd be a great addition but he's been linked with so many other clubs.

Post by ovechkin8 on Jul 18, 2006 16:27:10 GMT -1
I'm pretty sure Fergie wont let Rossi go on loan. This kid has great talent(really has) & is a surefire Italy international for the near future. With Man.Utds problems upfront I think he'll be kept at the club. Hes ahead of Lupoli (both from Parma) in the development race at present. I just want to see some proven players too like GB said to stiffen up the team.I hate to say it but the transfers so far are okay & just that.I've heard no more on the Kranjci kid from Upjest either. Maybe Gera could come instead.He'd be perfect to link up King to the likes of Francis.But with WBA as they are I dont think he'll be going anywhere even if he could. Off topic:As for PES6 GB I'm going to wait for it to be released here.I always buy PC versions of sports games as you can mod them(esp.EA games FIFA06 is nothing apart from the anthems & commentary compared to PES5).My comp.is pretty powerful so its no problem at all. If you have a PS2 then at any of the PES sites ie pesfan.com you have guides on how to patch your PS2 game. PES7 will be something though. With the next gen computers with MS-Vista OS & DX10 inbuilt it will allow PC gamers the same quality graphics as with XBOX360 . Just hope for 2 things.One the opposition get carded for some blatant shoves in the back & trips ;D & they actually have the linos on the lines not just in cut scenes & coaching staff on the bench. It would be great to have AB squaring up to I did not see it on the bench

I think its just one of those rumours that's believable, but won't actually happen. From what I've seen of Rossi he does seem a fantastic prospect though, agree that cos Man Utd are short of strikers and what with Ruud on the verge of leaving it would make sense if they kept him. Don't think Kranjci or whatever his name was was ever really gonna come, just pure rumour. Would like a winger, to play on the other wing to Ash and provide some good crosses into the box. Cheers for the info bout the PS2, I already got them sites Just need a cable to connect it up. From what I've heard there's been a few things tweaked, the ref strictness is a little..stricter, and more skill has been added to the players. lol if I was a games programmer - I'd make sure I'd have that in there ;D
