Colin signed them all though, we've not got any yet Mr DaftBurger You make a lighthearted comment on the messiah and you get attacked as if wearing a union jack tee-shirt in SWAT Valley! Hope to Allah that TP never grows a beard or we'll all have to! ;D

Fair enough, thanks Rob and apologies to Mr_Daftburger. Lost that amongst all the talk of Martins not being as good as Fuller!

Think he would be the striker that got me most excited of the three we have been linked with.

It may seem a small point, but I think it is great that the media are regularly using phrases like "ambitious Stoke" these days. A lot of what happens (and doesn't happen) in football seems to depend upon perception. It may smack of smoke and mirrors, but we do seem to have moved up a notch in the minds of the media. This time last year we were favorites for the drop - the least regarded of the promoted teams. Now we are "ambitious Stoke" - a mid table team on the up!
We must cash in whilst the wind is in our favour. Positive comments may just tip the balance in favour of us getting the players we want. Obviously not against the top four and maybe not against the likes of Spurs but we do, at present, seem to be compared well with many of the mid table teams.

Apart from the English clubs already mentioned Martins is also negotiating with German Champions Wolsburg. Fee is same as quoted in UK media and they can offer Champions league football. They are also in danger of losing Decko to AC Milan which maybe accelerate the deal for Martins.

its just weird as well a couple of nights ago when someone asked dave views if we were looking and were interested in anyone in newcastle and middlesborough who wassnt a midfielder or a centre back and he said 100% yes so if anybody believes that dave views is reliable then maybe just maybe we could be gettin him, who knows :/ or it could just be utter tosh paper talk :L

To be fair , Mr views was asked ' Are we interested in any Castle/Boro players who aren't full-backs or midfielders and he did say '100% yes'. But maybe he was on about Huth?

Wikipedia does contain this amazing entry for Martins..... "Martins made his debut on 27 August, in the 2–0 defeat to Aston Villa, in which he was stretchered off with a cock injury. It turned out that Martins suffered a severe dead leg and internal bleeding. " ;D Bastard, I just spat my tea out reading that.

Lots of people have said that it would be progressive for us to have four forwards vying for two places; two quick and two target men would be perfect. I'd be happy with Fuller and Martins with Beattie and A.N. Other.

Martins would be a fantastic signing.
