Did I hear Coppell to be Director Of Football with Hughton on the touchline?

Good moves for both players if they materialise. Lawrence is definitely too good for the Championship and Green has yet to be tested (or found out) at the highest level.

Mick will have been swayed by Nigel Clough's overwhelming endorsement of Paul's abilities.

Saw the incident earlier on SSN, great run by Treacy and shocking decision by the ref. Was a clear pen.

just on the football league show that Hughton has not applied for the job, but more rumours about Coppell as Director of Football

I guess he just really likes going to Crystal Palace games then. Can't account for taste, it seems.

According to The Sun, Adam Hammill is being linked with a 500,000 stg move to Wolves. Could be a good move for him and Mick might get him to declare.

In regards to my comments in relation to posts about Pady Madden, turn the sarcasm meters on for God's sake!

That would be a good switch for JoSh. I think he'd do very well in the Bundesliga.

According to an anonymous football agent on Twitter who's usually pretty reliable, Wigan Athletic will be selling Chris Kirkland and replacing him with Kieran Westwood either this January or in the summer.

I think that's just that the contract signed in August has finally gone through. If Portsmouth get a good offer I think their minders will strongly encourage them to sell.

duff back to blackburn? read last quote in this somewhat amusing article:

Looks like Birmingham are in talks with Keane. I'm sure Brum will pay approximately six million pounds for Keano, and the deal will come down to whether Robbie is willing to take a pay cut/go to Birmingham.

**gastric** · 04/01/2011, 10:32 PM

Just watched Blackpool vs. Birmingham and I thought Carr played well again. He got me thinking about Finnan. I don't believe he ever officially retired. Anyone have any info on him and is there any possibility of him finding a club this month?

**gastric** · 06/01/2011, 9:56 AM

Eddie Nolan supposedly has left Preston and signed a six month deal with Scunthorpe. Jim Gannon taking over at Port Vale.

**Closed Account** · 06/01/2011, 10:17 AM

Conor Powell has joined Colchester on an 18 Month Deal, seemingly to replace Irish qualified Marc Tierney, who is rumoured to be going to Coventry as competition for Stephen O'Halloran.
They've also (edit:not) permanently signed Dave Mooney.

That's not Conor Powell in the picture. I think it's Williams off Fingal.

Saw on SSN yesterday that David Forde at Millwall is the subject of interest of a few PL clubs. Cant remember who the clubs were, will try and find link.

Jim Goodwin joins St Mirren. Wasnt he part of the Kerr under age winning team.......the one that beat Italy I think. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,195...638294,00.html

Stoke deny any interest in Stephen the great.....good for them

Confirmed Eddie Nolan move from Preston to S'horpe
