£2m seems the vogue fee for us this summer.
I said it the other day, this deal just looks nailed on to me.

I'd take him. Another decent player on the cheap.

A proper full back. Got to be bollocks then...
Having said that Collins is going to WHU, so perhaps there 's something in it.

Surely this is bullshit?
He;s absolute dogshit and the model of an un-Pulis-like full-back.
And a thug.

That's got an air of underwhelming inevitability about it hasn't it.
Saying that, at least he's actually a full back.

He's far better than Wilko & Shotton, he's out of favour, he's affordable. Can't see much wrong with signing him to be honest... |

He was linked with us last summer and by the DM wasn't he?

He can't be any worse than wilkco and shots surely, a proper fullback at long last

Give me Wilko every day of the week.
Wankety, wank, wank. Not quite at plethora proportions mind.
Also, what FM said.

One for the dogs' home and he's under 30 so we could move him on if we need to.
Could be an absolute bargain if Pulis gives him some cuddles and a thumb up his arse.

Hard to see him being anything other than a lazy (he's played in the prem for 4-5 years) type signing. Surely for 2-3m we could do better abroad.

Surely this is bullshit? He;s absolute dogshit and the model of an un-Pulis-like full-back. And a thug. I still think there's a player in there. I may be being wildly optimistic but if anyone can get the best out of him it'll be Tone. As I've said on numerous occasions, we as fans need to get used to the idea that we aren't going to spend that much (relatively speaking) this summer. In the same way as it's not easy to get a winger for under £3m, I think to get an experienced full back for £2m isn't that bad. Lest we forget we spunked more than that on Collins and if Hutton isn't better than him I'm giving up on football. |

I'd take him solely on the fact that he's a proper fullback and he gets forward when he can. I think under pulis he'd do well, pulis is a defenders manager, he organises them well and gets the best out of them. And for £2 million, you can't complain!

I remember him being really touted at Rangers, especially for his searing pace. His career has never taken off, though, has it? There's talk of injury badly damaging him and he's an absolute laughing stock and hate figure at Villa |

Not going to set the world on fire, but its a step in the right direction. A proper right back.

He's not that bad sometimes it's down to how a team are settup. TP certainly knows how to coach a defence.

Danny Collins is still loved at Sunderland and we think he's wank. |

Used to really rate him, but seems that he's gone downhill since moving to Spurs. Although Sunderland fans seem to rate him when he was on loan there?
At least he's a proper right back and TP could get the best out of him. And at £2m, it's pocket change really.

So where does this leave Geoff "new right back" Cameron if it happens? Cover for Huth/Shawcross?
