Robinson would make a useful loan signing at best, doubt he would sign up for longer than that. Duffy? hmm, maybe.

Furlong and Savage? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Could be worse, Sheffield Utd sold Sharp to Scunny for a 100 grand, then brought him back for 2 million.

I'd be surprised if Rovers sold Duffy, bearing in mind they only have 2 other strikers.

Some of the comments about the players linked with amazes me. Bishop would be a brilliant signing? Give me strength. He scored 3 goals last year and has never played higher than League Two. Savage gets ridiculed (just like Jabo did when we first signed him) even though he's been popular pretty much everywhere he played. Tranmere fans were surprised they got rid of him after one injury-hit season as he'd been so good in 08-09.

Well consider me surprised. They've got Kuffour and Hoskins...what happens when one of them gets injured? Strange.

9 goals in 48 league appearances for Tranny does not suggest he's a great replacement though.

Not great, just average. But not the donkey that people are making out either. In an average pre-season I'd be happy to sign Savage; since we've got a bit of money to spend I'd be hoping for better.

I'd agree with that, If I were Hutch I would feel seriously short changed if we signed a Bas Savage standard player as a replacement for Deeney considering we received decent money for him.

If we got him i'd NEVER watch Walsall again. That would be it.
But I doubt we'll go for him.

Got this awfull feeling Hutch will be asked by the powers that be to 'wait till christmas' before spending the deeney money. :(
Hope i'm wrong and he manages to pull a few decent players in to the side.

A considered and thoroughly researched analysis Matt - Hutch should be worried for this job with judges such as you around :wink:

Anyway, even I could do a better job than Hutch. I would just come on here and ask you lot for your opinions on what should happen :lol:
