Smoking Kills Dancing Doe I'm sure we'll find out in the morning if Hammond pressed send in time....

......Or just as Bugs was about to press send ...Egoman came into his office and said "Feed me some grapes, boy" ! with a grin on his face saying "thats money saved"!

If they want Harper, why would we want Howard? Surely they are saying that they rate Harper above Howard? Different types of players fit into different sides..... Exactly. Howard is a more attacking player and technically superior. On the other hand Harper is more of a defensive midfielder. Will be...

shaka's shorts just on SSN - Harps and Howard in one year loan swap

I guess that shows that Rodgers doesnt want Harper anyway

How many times have our scouts watched Stock and Howard? I'd guess between them over 100 times. We all know from the opions people have of our players from the outside. It's impossible to make a judgement on a player without watching them pretty regular. The little I've seen of both them seem diffe...

How the oxf*rd would you know. I trust Brendan far more than you on who this club needs. Yes well you would, if its good for Brendan its good for me, - the fact that you rate Howard just about sums you up! Cock! Bless. Brendan Rodgers = Highly respected coach. IMAMATEOFJOVSKY = Keyboard warrior. Ye...

Im sure that Rodgers said to Bugs "go and get Brian Stock" so he went and got Brian Howard...he's not having a good time lately!

He's no better than what we have...and its no good talking about what he was like then (remember he was an average player in a pretty shite team that had a freak cup run) - but its what he's like now, and obviously not even good enough for Blades first XI ...this is the frustration, unless there is...

According to a poster on the BBC site - "The deadline for most European countries passed yesterday and so they can no longer bring players in. However, the deadline was extended for the UK due to the Bank Holiday. As a result, UK clubs are allowed to bring players IN from abroad, but no player...

Shame - dont think Howard is any better than what we have - he can't even crack a first team place in the Sheff U team Just about sums this one up "Howard, who cost United £500,000 from their South Yorkshire neighbours, was initially offered as a makeweight in a swap deal with Reading midfield...

Howard's seem done, maybe dependent on Sheff U getting someone in if the Harper switch is off. Be very surprised not to see a right back arrive, maybe just as cover for Rosey. Not a bad window at all. How do u know it is done, is there proof of this anywhere or do u have inside knowledge? What's ha...

Interesting. Could be either of Pearce or Mills out, neither have been exactly fantastic so far. Personally I' have had higher priorities elsewhere, but fair enough. Well lets hope its not Mills!!! or else there will be mutterings of the other £2m failures to wear the Reading shirt - Fae and Halfor...

Aside from different views on the merits of Harps as a player (past and present), it seems to be that most people are agreeing here, along the lines of... ...a move to Wolves would have suited everyone involved... but it now looks unlikely... if he stays Buck would be an idiot to freeze him out wit...

My Celtic supporting mate says "I like Darren O'Dea, a good player for us. We don't understand why he's went out on loan! He's actually signed a new deal with us I believe ... but has went to Reading on loan. :| Think he'll do well. " This is a clever move by Celtic - should Reading want ...

For me I think we need a central midfielder and it appears its down to either one of the Brians - Stock or Howard - would prefer Stock but we'd probably need to ship both Marek and Harper out for that to happen and I cant see both going - not even sure one will go....so Howard is most likely

Ive heard its Cardiff

Confirmed as a 3 month loan deal ...if we are going to get the benefit, would of thought at least 6 months deal would have been a better option

If he stays I wouldn't be surprised to see him come back into the first team sooner than later. There's obviously a fair bit of interest and disruption about him and a potential transfer. It would make sense to not try and build him in as an integral piece of the team if he may go and is probably d...
