from the little bit i have been told sunderland were expecting to sign another striker but that is looking very unlikely so they will stick with jones Yeah, that makes sense. Shame about that. I bet Pulis is gutted. You can imagine his eyes lighting up at the prospect of nicking him. yeh, we'll have to make do with Ashton and Vaughan ;D

Forgive me Shrinkie, I must have missed your previous posts... ...but what makes you different to any of the other ITK's on here who've promised transfer movement over the last month? I have faith in the manager but I'm starting to get a little disappointed that those promises of new players before pre-season never materialised and now we look at starting the season with one new face. Deep breath... we'll be OK though what makes me different is i think i am the only one who lives in cambridge

Faubert could be an interesting signing, capable of providing competition for right-back and right-midfield

Vaughan's been playing for Everton and seems to have had a fullish pre-season so you'd think he'd be fit enough to be on the bench.
The only thing we know about Ashton is that he's still breathing (well, at least we think he is). Everything else is guesswork.

Are Vaughan and Ashton both fit Shrinkie? And if so Ashton has given the thumbs up, why can he not just grab a fucking biro and sign on the dotted line?

Fantastic! Do you know the score for the Burnley game? 2-0 mate, anyone knows that Great so we now know who is signing and the score. What time will the first goal be, and who will score it? And if you can tell me what time the last goal will be that will help me I will guess the scorer I don't want to much help ;D

An initial £4.5m does seem a bit on the high side for a striker with almost as many serious, long-term injuries as career starts.
What is it? 4 bad injuries and 10 starts?
It would be nice to have a young striker with a bit of pace though.
If we're getting Vaughan and Ashton, potentially £10m down for the two, with maybe another £5-£6m to come is a lot to gamble on 2 roll-of-the-dice players who have had career-threatening injuries which may hamper them for the rest of their careers and mean they never live up to the heights they've threatened to reach
Could be inspired or could be disastrous.

We've always had luck on our side with players like that though FM, Delap, Fuller, Stein etc

True.
Let's hope it lasts.

We've always had luck on our side with players like that though FM, Delap, Fuller, Stein etc I think that when we took a gamble on those players you listed it was an affordable gamble. The likes of Vaughan and Ashton could be extremely costly if those gambles don't pay off, even with factoring initial outlay plus fees rising on appearences. You are still potentially forking out several million pounds upfront, plus a lot more in wages to sit on a treatment table to boot.

If Ashton has said he is happy to sign before the end of the season, erm, why hasnt he signed?

Post by FullerMagic on Aug 10, 2009 9:48:03 GMT
So, if this is true, could we see a very quick resolution to the Ashton saga?
Maybe within 48 hours?
Did we ever have any definitive answer to the question of whether he has already had a medical? (presumably he must had a very detailed one for us to be in a position to negotiate a fee in full possession of the facts about his fitness?)
