Dempsey signing watch

RE: Re: RE: Dempsey

Prediction..Tribunal says OK based on his record..Deuce to get a deuce against the Hammers

 

RE: Re: RE: Dempsey

Whatever! I took it down {ready to enable, though}

I have a lot of faith in the TFI's 'insider'... and this is 180 deg different than Reyna. It was him changed his mind.
I would assume th contract is signed and sealed... thus poaching cant happen,

 

RE: Re: RE: Dempsey

Here's the deal on Dempsey.... it can easily be extrapolated that he WOULD have met the Req's IF we had a Head Coach, and/or he'd been included based on availability in the games he missed...IOW it wasnt a decision based on worth but on external factors.

I cant beleive the Players Assoc would be so petty as to refuse the appeal.

So it's up to 'paper processing' and what THAT means is all we have to worry about is if he's got a record with police or something.... hmmmmm...

{fingers crossed}

 

No new news--just a comment on Dempsey

I agree with Pettyfog.

That's the problem with relying on a mathematical forumla to make the decision. Before the transfer window opens they could make up a list of players who qualify throughout the world, based on a combination of the forumla and a definition of "regular international". I know that'd be a lot of work for no reason for the vast majority of players throughout the world but UEFA is rich--they can afford it.

Man I wish that match was going to be on Fox. I don't get Setanta.

 

Re: RE: Re: RE: Dempsey

dude...you got to catch up on the changing times...this is the Age of Technology....the Dark Ages are over. Get Setanta...it's been soooooooooooo worth it

 

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Dempsey

So are we signing Deuce, Davies, Montella, and Onyewu....Is Montella still smacked up. The "Airplane" was plagued with injuries last year. Hope he has the bottle for the EPL.....

 

RE: Re: RE: Dempsey

yay or nay, I keep reading conflicting reports. I just want some hard signings in the next week or two.

 

RE: Re: RE: Dempsey

"Dempsey & gooch signing today or tomorrow for £3.7M and Montella today they hope for £250K"

You heard it here first

 

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Dempsey

SKY Sport reports that Fulham have accepted an offer for Collins John from an Unamed Premiership side

 

Re: RE: Re: RE: Dempsey

Mikey!!!!!
Montella is in on loan.. a lock. What's the fee for?

The Dempsey deal was said to be £2M; Original Onyewu offer:£1M, Liege turned it down, so upping it 50% would seem about right... Lumping the two into £3.7M makes it sound like you know a bean-counter.

 

Oh, please! What a fantastic late X-mas present. When I saw that Standard had rejected the $1m offer, I was desperately hoping Cookie would see fit to up it to a reasonable number, and if shipping out Collins John is what it takes, than so be it.

Was it DC Heather who said they might have to rename the team the USMNT? Fielding 4 Yanks in the starting 11 would certainly make me delirious (although since I imagine Cookie ideally wanting to pair Gooch with Zat for sheer size intimidation, I'm not 100% sure where Boca would play).

 

As for the CJ bid, it was accepted but another club is also asking about him thus Fulham is letting the two teams go at it with CJ having a final say. I am not convinced he'll leave since his ego just won't let him go low. Though the first bid IS Watford.

Gooch is supposedly, ahem, flying back to london today/tomorrow so we'll see. Dempsey deal is done but, again this all depends on work permit.

Sorry, the 250 was for his wages for 6 months for Montella. Roma is pitching in to pay some of them.

 

Mike, have you heard when we will know if he gets his permit. The suspense is killing me.
