was it Middlesborough first team or a mix with reserves too?
 
Mark Yeates gone to Watford and Jordan Slew set to sign a new contract.

Yeates wasn't bad on his day. Shame his day was usually a Thursday ;)
 
According to sky sources West ham have bidded for Leeds winger Max Gradel and also Gudjohnson could sign for the hammers tomorrow. Ive seen Gradel play a couple of times but I havent seen him enough times to really judge him. any good?
 
Gradel=Bargain.

Seriously think Moyes wishes he has the funds to sign him to EFC, the LUFC fans call him their 'messi', tricky, agile, small winger who is very talented.

Youve just made him sound like the best player in the championship :P Ive got a west ham season ticket for next season and if he is very talented as you say I will be looking forward to watching him and also Chelsea legend Eidur if they both sign for the hammers live every other week next season :)
 
you can all **** off from Gradel :P. Was our player of the season last year and has really come on leaps and bounds. Leciester got rid of him saying he wasn't good enough from Championship but he has proved them wrong. If you want him you will have to offer multi million pounds. He's not going anywhere
 
Gradel had a great season last season but as he showed the season before his attitude at times is questionable, While he was on loan he looked really sharp but once he was signed he was'nt as interested and lost his head in the last game of the season, Last season ofcourse he was very impressive but i would'nt be so confident of it taking multi millions to get him away from us.

He is in his last year of his contract for one, As we've seen with Kasper that means you can be sold for a knocked down price.With clubs from the premiership already showing interest in him too and him already saying he would like to play at that level, I would'nt expect him to sign a new contract, Even more so considering how tight the club can be with wages.

The club have'nt got a good track record of getting players to sign new contracts, Beckford went for free, Johnson for free, Kilkenny for free, All first team players and the club made nothing on them.Kasper was in the last year of his contract and while he was sold cheap it is better than losing him for nothing, I would expect the same thing with Gradel, Either he signs a new contract or a bid between 3 and 5 million would be enough to convince Bates to sell him on, The bring in some reject who is either past it or never had it to replace him.
 
Bury fan here, first time ive posted on a forum like this as i spend most of my time on another football forum :)
 
One things for sure, Leicester City in my opinion are going to be the team to beat if their summer business is anything to go by. Also would like peoples opinions on Mr Sullivans interview yesterday with sky about Scotty Parker. Is it just me or does this guy think all West Ham United have to do is turn up week in and week out and promotion would be sealed by christmas? I hope they fail badly.

One more note.. League Two fans be ware, Neil Harris is going to score bag fulls of goals for Southend Utd :) hopefully win me some money lol

I despise West Ham because of them 2 jackass owners! The way they sacked Avram Grant was a disgrace! So i agree, i hope that they fail miserably at their attempt.

Thats what Cardiff were like on both counts last season, we had the best squad and Dave Jones believed we had a divine right of promotion

Love whats happening at the moment, 5 fantastic free signings, 1 good youngster, hopefully 1 or 2 big signings to be announced in the week and a manager who shows PASHUN!!! Probably wont get promotion this season but if I see a team playing as a team and showing determination we will have advanced
 
Yeovil have signed Dom Blizzard on a one year deal, i'm happy skivo knows what he's doing and if it dosen't pan out then its only a year! good signing and hopefully more to come. i would put money on max ehmer coming back and that would make our defence a complete brick wall next season, still a worrying lack of a good goalie though!

I agree and think Leicester City will be champions and will be doing a LCFC game on FM12

What do you make of the news Karl Duguid is back training with you? Do you want him to sign on a contract?

Can't fault Duguid on effort, always 100% but apart from his goal at the Emirates he's been pretty much awful. Can't pass, cross, or defend. Probably not good enough at League One level; Though I would liked him to stay, to help out with his expierence.
 
Personally I think we should definitely not sign him. He used to be quite a good player but he has had his time now and would not improve our squad on the pitch. I think he would be more beneficial signed as a coach to mentor the younger players coming through
 
Karl Duguid= BIGGEST **** EVER (got my Southend Utd hat on) can't believe Paul Storruck actually thought about offering him a trial lol
