Little wants Shorey at Pompy

[beno]

I think this would be a good deal, Shorey obviously wants to leave and he would go straight into the pompey 1st team. Hreidarsson, another Iceman, would probably be dropped, and we would need a new LB so why not get him in?

He might be 34 (?) but this would give us some experience and 1-2 seasons before the likes of Golbourne / Kelly come through.

Just a thought.

wrong forum.

[beno]

i do apologise, can it be moved to the correct one? I thought it was relating to the team.

Given the fact that Little was reported as wanting Shorey at Pompey and Coppell is now on the OS stating that the club have had an offer (from someone) and that it was 60/40 Shorey was off - presumably this thread will soon be moved off UROG!

Sooner the better, but we MUST buy a replacement. Hunt is not the answer at left back.

SC said on BBCRBafter the villa match that Reading Fc had received a offer this week from a club but the offer was not to his valuation.
But Tim Dellor reckons that shorey will leave this week,and they have a player they will get in when shorey goes.

You , but you know he's right.

[Alan Partridge]

a) No, although he MAY prove to be right.

As much as I hate sticking up for this at times feable club, Coppell can hardly say in public yep we've sold Shorey we haven't got a left back we're screwed, now can he?

"Hunty has proven himself more than capable than any other player we could attract in our situation..."

[gazzer, loyal royal]

Halford, Seol, possibly Matejovsky.

Attempt at that Scott Brown (?) blokie. Apparently Mensah, Lescott etc etc.

You do talk rubbish and make stuff up a lot Jay.

4 million bid accepted for brown
wasnt it a 4M euro bid for mensah.


if wed have got those two in, i reckon wed be preparing for another prem season about now.

also we had the same bid as everton accepted for Jagielka, he just chose the wages, but was very close to coming to us

[Streets]

AP, roll eyes roll eyes bt we've heard that so many times over the last 24 months.

Reading boss Steve Coppell is resigned to losing England full-back Nicky Shorey, with an unnamed Premier League club set to return with an improved bid in the next few days. (Press Association, 1850 BST)

1.Pompey want Swp,so cant afford Shorey as well.
2 West Ham have been told to sell players before they buy due to high wages in the team.
3 Villa only other team in for Shorey.
So my money is on Shorey going to Villa.

Makes absolute sense when you know that if he doesn't go he'll be starting next week, yet didn't play in the friendly against Villa.

Reading or Everton and you are claiming he went to Everton just because of wages??

[howser]

I just wish that he would go and be done with it, no comparisons with Sids this one, during his final year with us Sids worked his arse off and although it didn't work, he got a move to the second best team in Europe. On the other hand Shorey was poor last year, and is so far off the England squad now, but maybe thats the "just deserts" he has earnt. So for my opinion I hope he goes soon, someone who blatently doesn't want to be at a club can have a very detremental effect on other players there. Lets just all hope to christ that we have a replacement already identified, someone not presently at the club, as well as not being one of the dreaded "one's for the future".

Joe Mattock would be a good replacement. Although i have not seen him play
