I like the fact they're willing to do some youtube research too
I would expect a Football Manager 2009 comment to emerge soon. |

Celtic and Rangers get out bid for the likes of Fulham and Hull nowadays.
They might want to set their sites higher, but to be honest Cox is exactly the sort of player they could go for and make a success of.

Holy Jesus Christ (That'll appeal to both sides)
If Cox goes to the sweaty's league without first trying Division two then he's got mental/agent problems. He could make it in Division two at the very least, without question.

They might be big clubs but they just don't have the money to compete with Premier League clubs and most likely a few Championship clubs as well - the BBC and Sky pay more for the Football League TV rights (£88 million a season) than Setanta pay for the SPL (£32 million a season). So they can't match the transfer fees or salaries, added to which who actually wants to play in the SPL? Scottish people maybe, but other than that? It wouldn't be a good career move either would it? He'd get to play in (and lose) a few Champions League games, play 6-8 games against a decent team (Rangers) and then every other game against shit teams (League 1 standard). Going to pretty much any Championship team would be better than Celtic. |

One thing that hasn't been mentioned, is the fact that maybe Reading might cast eyes down the m4. If they dont go up, and doyle goes, they'll be in the market. Be a no brainer for Coxy, and if we got 1/2 a mill, robson kanu and a couple of others of his ilk, might be a good deal all round.

I agree. Very plausible. |

I made a similar point on Thisis, but so far no-one there has agreed. |

You sound surprised? Most of them cant agree with their own postings.

I wouldn't want Kanu in part-exchange, young big head with lots of talent who is going nowhere in football. For me he has a poor attitude.

I disagree. You need someone in a team who can weave a bit of magic and do something to turn a game on its head.

He has a bit of magic about him yes agree, he also plays for himself and whilst we are in the lower leagues can be a luxury, remember Zaboub. |

Sometimes he does look as though he's going through the motions, but he is a good player and can only get better, what you might find is he would then become the big fish and up his game even more.
