Any ideas?

Tony Daley or Andrei Kanchelskis.

(I'm no good at these - who could this player be threads).

Kevin Betsy?  On loan at walsall and yeovil last year.

Jenison Myrie Williams?

Think Id prefer it to be JM-W.

Jay Simpson?

I think it must be Betsy.
I cannot see Myrie Williams being on a free.

I think its Jennison Myrie-Williams who can play as a winger or up front, is local and is another 6 footer as MM likes.

The only thing against him is that hes left footed and not a right winger, unless MM intends to swap him to the right as a left footed right winger....pretty unusual IMO.

But then again...Betsy is 6'1" as well and much more of a right sided player.......


mmmm jury is out, but I think its one of them!

Fuck it! Get them both :)

Anyone who is more consistant that JPM. Which isnt hard.

bobby barnes?

I would sell my soul, ......OK not my soul but someone else's, ....someone I don't like much, to have a re-incarnated Bobby Barnes in the side. 

John Barnes?

I've heard it is Abiola Dauda from Kalmar

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abiola_Dauda

You really are a random person arent you! :soapy tit wank:

I would wager money on it being one of Mr Betsy or J.M-W

It is almost definately going to be Dauda. He is on his way over to Swindon from Sweden as we speak! I am so excited!

Didn't we have Betsy on loan on that loan deadline day when we signed about 5 players?

I seem to remember him having a terrible attitude.

That was Kevin James.

He was fucking useless and that was against cirencester, reckoned he was some gangster cunt.

I see a pattern emerging, him and Jarrett. innit gwan.

Ah yes, so it was. Apologies to Mr. Betsy.

Was going to say, i think we'd all know if Betsy had played for us recently. Has looked really good in this division over the last few seasons so would be a decent addition IMO. No idea about the other bloke but the more the merrier!

I think he's from Holland.  -  'Dutch' Barnes

Betsy is one those players alot of his previous clubs seem to rate but every time I've seen him play hes been bloody terrible.

Apart from that time at the CG during a league cup game when Wycombe passed us off the park and he was one of the best players on the pitch.

From what I remember of seeing Betsy he doesn't seem to be much of a winger, more of a wide forward in that he always seems to be happy to come inside the full back, but he can't really go outside anyone or get crosses in. He seemed a bit of a 'push and rush' merchant too.

He lloked alright playing in a front 3 with mooney and holmes for wallsall when they battered us at the CG also.

I thought he played very well against us away to Wycombe in league 2 and destroyed us last season at home to Walsall. Would be a very decent signing.

Both are still under contract at City.

I'm praying it's Betsy and not JMW. Betsy is proven at this level and looked lively against us last year, whereas Williams is a diving useless piece of crap*.

*completely unjustified disliking of player alert

Betsy is one of those players who always does well against us.

Myrie-Williams is "one for the future" so even a laughing-stock like Bristol City are unlikely to let him go on a free.

40 career goals in about 240 matches...was in the lge 2 PFA team when at Wycombe....i would really like Betsy here.

I remember Betsy being one of those players that always seemd to "threaten".  Maybe never really did produce but he panics defenders or keeps them busy, which would be a great addition to take some attention away from McNamee.  I'd quite like those two on the wings in fact, with Nalis, Easton and Timlin battling it out for the central two places.  Quite a decent midfield for this league I think.

im sure it is likely to be betsy, if it is we will be good going forward but fullbacks will be very exposed.

I remmember Betsy playing for Barnsley on Sam Parkins debut. South stand were taking the piss shouting betsy in a high pitched note (even higher than usual). He looked OK that day. Wycombe were a class act that League Cup game and he was one of their best players.

Just a worry that he's had so many clubs. Lots of clubs spending money then letting him go after a year or two.

He would be much better than JPM though. 

(just posted this on the rumours thread as I didn't notice this one  :doh:)

I'm guessing Joe Anyinsah of Preston - plays on both wings and played for Carlisle and Crewe last season.

He's played only a few games for Preston since 2005 and I'd doubt he'd command a fee... I'm sure Betsy would.

Betsy's the only one I can think of that is at a Championship club who was on loan at two League One clubs last season (Yeovil & Walsall). The adver article also suggests he could be available on a free which would suggest he's still under contract but they're looking to off-load.

Anyinsah's a good shout. He's previously a Shitty youth, so perhaps would like to come home?

  Didn't he get two in that 3-0 defeat we had to carlisle last season?

From the BBC  "The player is understood to have been on loan to two League One clubs last season, and can play on either wing or up front."  Does Betsy play all three? Sounds more like one of the other two mentioned

I'm sure Betsy used to play up front for Wycombe.

When is Roberts likely to be fit then ?

Betsy used to play upfront, he did agaisnt us for Oldham I think. He's always caused up trouble anyway.

  think initially they were saying end of October.

Myrie Williams according to this

http://www.clubfanzine.com/tranmere_rovers/v2.showNews.php?id=12568

Thats wrong though.

I thought MM was talking about a permanent deal for a player, not a loan move.

Doesn't mean its not Myrie-Williams but not quite sure all the facts (if any) are right in that article.

Im sure it will be Betsy,Williams has played and looked good for city pre season and we have not spoke to the preston bloke have we so really only leaves betsy.

One is right. No two. They said we have signed Nalis and also that JMW plays on either flank and upfront. Still could be either him of Betsy really.

Joe Anyinsah has been the best player so far in pre season games for PNE and Carlisle are after his permanent signature so I could be wrong but I dont think its him IMO.

N'ah neither do I now... I'm over that... He was an unused sub for PNE last night.

I'd put money on it being Betsy. Makes no sense for City to get rid of Myrie-Williams, nor Preston of Anyinsah, and certainly neither of them for free.

Malpas saying that he would have to take a pay cut to come here makes me think its betsy

Also saying it does not look likely now.

Dont understand why we don’t use the cash we were going to use for mulgrew on a half decent winger?

Didn't MM also state that the player in question is of young age? That makes me think it's Myrie-Williams... or someone else.

I don't think he did. Could be wrong though.

You're right - he was talking about Yinka.

I'm still not sure about Betsy - without a reason to justify this.

The not saying it was a young player is one of the things that points towards betsy for me. And the fact that he said it was for a free. Betsy seems to be out of favour so it seems less unlikely that they'd let him go, unlike the younger players which seem to be going out on loan for experience.

It sounds like it might not happen anyway though. So maybe we'll never find out.

Other than being an early member of the Fulham gravy-train - Betsy hasn't played for clubs that I would associate with high earners. 2 years at Barnsley, 1 at Oldham, 2 at Wycombe and 1 with Bristol City... It would be at the latter where the money really starts rolling in - he was brought in to ensure promotion and didn't get a look in after that.

One day MM is saying that the guy really wants to join and the next day it doesn't look likely because of money - says alot about modern football really. They'll join (and want to join) Basra Academical if the money is right.

City paid £200k for him a couple of years ago.  Given their status as the biggest club in the world (tm) it seems fair to assume that he is on more than most if not all of our players.   especially if city do the 25% autmatic increase / decrease for promotion / relegation thing.

Me thinks you have been playnig FM too much! :soapy tit wank:

Betsy was at the game last night, apparently disucssing a few things, but he is sti  lin talks with the Slave Traders about paying yup his contract so he can join Swindon.

And Malpas wants an answer from Casal's club today or he will move to his next target
