Other clubs are announcing signings now, and I really don't buy into that saving wages rubbish that Worthie used to spout, we need to move on these players and get them tied down sooner rather than later, because later we will hear all about who we went for but failed. It just seems to be the same old story every year.    Report

Sorry mate but if you are going to get your knickers in a twist about lack of signings before the play off semis are even over you are going to be a nervous wreck come August! Here is how the summer will work. We will sign some players, lots of people will say they are not good enough, others will say wait until you see them play.  Many will say we have bought cheap and blame lack of ambition, others will say we are a small team with a history of zero success for years and they are the best we could get.  We will supplement these signings with a dollop of loans, again many will say they are useless, too young, other people's rejects and lack experience while others will say they have potential and may become permanent signings in January.  There will be countless threads about where has the money gone etc.  Oh, and expect a daily diet of rumour related to Asda car park. Just chill out and enjoy the summer dude! Following NCFC for 25 years (more often out of a sense of morbid curiosity than expectation)    Report

Speculation about the Seasiders' winger's future is growing with a host of clubs reported to be queuing up to try to woo him. Hoolahan's inclusion in Trapattoni's 28-man squad for the friendly internationals against Colombia and Serbia later this month has triggered a rash of fresh reports suggesting that the Seasider is a wanted man. Norwich boss Glenn Roeder is certainly one manager believed to be actively pursuing Hoolahan. However, it remains likely that the winger will be a target for one of the Championship's bigger hitters, such as Wolves, Charlton, Watford or last night's play-off losers Crystal Palace. Hoolahan flew back to Ireland after Blackpool's final game against Watford and didn't show for the end-of-season player of the year awards. He is said to have told friends that he won't be playing his football at Bloomfield Road next year.    Report
