January 2011 - Transfer rumours

**SkStu** · 21/01/2011, 6:01 PM

yeah, i agree Stu. I never thought it too likely to happen (though was excited by the possibility) and it appears to have been a pretty weak rumour anyway.

**Supreme feet** · 21/01/2011, 6:27 PM

I'm a bit surprised by the attention shown to Madden across the channel. He gets into good positions but his finishing is pretty poor.

**robbie_B** · 22/01/2011, 10:31 AM

pretty astute summary SupremeFeet.

A couple of articles on the current make up of the squad and their playing time so far this season, doesnt make great reading, particularly with reference to our more established players.

Very little to report on the rumours side this morning. From Sky:

Fulham manager Mark Hughes has warned any potential suitors they would be wasting their time if they pursue the signing of Damien Duff.

McDermott played for the reserves last night, but came off at half time. No reason given in the article on the official site - http://www.mcfc.co.uk/News/Match-rep...DS-v-Newcastle

**gastric** · 28/01/2011, 9:53 PM

Scott Davies of Reading going on an initial month's loan to Bristol Rovers.

**gastric** · 30/01/2011, 10:56 AM

Rumours from the rags. The transfer window is nearly closed. Robbie to West Ham (no surprise!), Shay to Spurs ( big surprise), Westwood to Newcastle and possible recruit O'Hara on loan to Wolves - this would be a good move for both Wolves and O'Hara.
