The 2 players SP was talking about is Huddersfields Adam Clayton and Peterboroughs Assombalonga. Radi to Huddersfield on loan was a sweetener for the Clayton deal and both deals expected to be done before Blackpool

Got a feeling Lacelles to Geordies for £3m is the 'strange' news we've been hearing about. Although it would certainly be strange and frustrating considering the other offers we've turned down, I don't think it would be the end of the world if Lacelles were to leave. Hobbs and Mancienne would always be first choice for me, with Fox also looking the part at CB along with back up from Liang, Collins and Riera. Landsbury is the key man I feel we need to keep to really build a team around him, plus we don't have the quality cover in midfield.

Admittedly Newcastle is a massive club and there's more chance of game time there than at a top 4 club, however they're a club that appear to have completely stagnated with a really negative atmosphere around the place. Forest though is a club on the the up with an air of excitement around the place, but if Jamaal feels it's a good career move good luck to him!

Rumour was Adam Clayton having trial at Brighton,

I think it was max Clayton formerly of Crewe who is on trial at Brighton.

I would still say Hobbs & Wilson are our best centre back partnership, although with injury worries over the latter this may not happen!

Ed - have you heard of any truth over the Lacelles rumour? It does indeed sound srange.

{Ed034's Note - i havnt but it seems pretty certain something is going off

The two players will be darlow and lascelles joining on loan from Newcastle haha

Hobbs and Mancienne are the main centre backs. this is good business. Emitov will be our number 1 after this season. Hence the long contract

Well it seems that Alan Nixon, saying some news coming out of the city ground as strange, was correct, he's not the only one that finds this strange, if the amount is correct, best wait and see.
