Hull have apparently been given the all clear to clinch Fraizer Cambell for 7m. Surely Aluko will be pushed onto the fringes, why not bring him in? I think him and Becchio could be deadly together. {Ed013's Note - No way will Hull pay 7 million for him}

Type in Fraizer Cambell on google and look what it says on the sun ed. {Ed013's Note - Your comment says it all mate}

warnock has told the new owners he wants to sign thomas, a left back, tonge and gary hooper
Believable43
Unbelievable63
Hooper would be the marque signing to show ambition and I think he's ready to move south but will Celtic let him go ? Would require Bechio to head North me thinks
Agree1
Disagree4
No chance of getting hooper
Agree5
Disagree2
Why would gary hooper come to us, we cant even sign chris wood!
And if gary hooper was available he would go to PL club or a club that would offer him more wages then we are able to.
If were to sign players of that calibre then we need change the strict wage bill policy.

It was reported before the transfer window opened that juventus were interested in hooper so possibly the most unlikely rumour so far this window. {Ed013's Note - Liverpool interested}
Agree1
Disagree2
The new owners should tell Warnock to forget about signing a striker and sort the midfield out so we can actually pass the ball through midfield instead of bypassing it. Either tell him that or tell him to pick his p45 up on Monday.

Cotterall from donny not just because he scored today but he is a good player
Agree0
Disagree1
Hooper would be massive gamble. Scunthorpe to Celtic, the only real opposition he wil have played would have been Rangers. Not proven even at Championship level. {Ed013's Note - He did well at Scunny and has done well at Celtic, even Liverpool are looking at him}
Agree0
Disagree1
The only real opposition he's played is rangers? U for real? Erm champions league?? But let's get real like an earlier post if we can't compete in a bidding war for Chris woods there is a big fat 0 chance of getting hooper
Agree0
Disagree0
Yea we couldnt compete with the wages leicester could pay woods, (£30,000 a week) hooper guna be wanting similar money
Agree0
Disagree0
Agree we probably can't afford him but i stand by my comments, not proven at this level. Scunthorpe ! And even Celtic with their fixture list is nothing like the Championship. If Liverpool want him let them crack on, another multi million failure, but they might buy him and loan him to West Ham. So he scored in the champions league, wow, that's real.
Agree0
Disagree0
Yes that's real, that's the top clubs from Europe not Barnsley of Peterborough, u seriously think he's not proven then u will b very disappointed with our signings this transfer window
Agree0
Disagree0
Lol hooper big gamble? LOL if we got him he would b the best player at leeds.
Agree0
Disagree0
Hooper would be an incredible signing, not gonna happen though
Agree0
Disagree0
When he played for Scunthorpe, they were in the Championship, and he was third top goal scorer with 19 league goals, behind Nicky Maynard and Peter Whittingham. I'm pretty sure than means he's proven at Championship level.
Agree0
Disagree1
So where are Whittingham and Maynard? There are loads of good strikers at this level, very few go on to make it at top champioship clubs or the prem. the SPL is no comparison to judge strikers. Let's see what he does for Liverpool.
Agree0
Disagree0
Hooper could easily play at the top, if you look at how he plays your see most strikers in prem aint as good as him.
Agree0
Disagree0
Im reading this alot and you get some right good points then you get some people stating they wouldnt sign gary hooper are you kidding i would be the happiest guy alive if we signed hooper buy he will stay at celtic and move to epl at end of season no sure what side but won't be championship

NW looking at Stanislas or Redmond as a replacement for Thomas. He also is waiting for Mcgugan or if that falls through looking to take hughes from derby on loan once he signs for a prem club

Redmond! Would love it if this was true, but can't see it myself...
Agree1

Would love Redmond at elland road, but would love whatever you have been smoking more lol. Do you honestly see us getting him.... Far to young for NW, in 10 years time maybe!

It could happen though because birmingham need the cash.

McGugan best that can happen he is class

Redmond would cost £6m+ and would go to a prem team unfortunately..

heard a rumour about rickie lambert, Southampton looking to splash the cash on a younger striker, and with lambert only making the bench recently (even in his prolific form) he is looking for a new club apparently, and saints are willing to let him go. SIGN HIM UP. MOT.
Believable19
Unbelievable66
One of the lower prem league teams are sniffing around after him (can't remember which one) so if he goes it would probably be to them.
Good player, probably out of our budget.
Would certainly leave us in no doubt of GFH/NW's intentions if we did get him though.
MOT

I don't k ow why people Are doubting gfh intentions. They have just spent 50mill. It's warnock who hasn't a clue. Lets hope they are as quick to silent warnock as they have bee. Getti g bates out of the program e!!!

Leeds to sign Dexter Blackstock for 800 thousand hope we get him
Believable43
Unbelievable43
As a squad player maybe but hoped we were aiming a bit higher than his like, time wil tell
Agree1

No chance, staying at forest mate!!
Agree1

Think we can do better, presumably just cover for becchio, seems a waste to me
Agree1
Disagree2
I note the Forest fans are getting themselves upset about this one. There rumour page and fans tweeting Dexter has been quite amusing. I dont know if we will sign him, but watching those merry men get carried away is enjoyable. It's nice to be a bidding club again.
Agree0
Disagree1
Reasonable player who I would like to see in a Leeds shirt. But out of contract at end of season so is 800k realistic?

Dexter Blackstock is a quality player so leeds might get him

Wont be the icing on the cake !
Dont personally rate him me self !
Templeton, Judge or lucas plazon on loan
MOT with youth for LEEDS UTD ....
Cant see it happening though ....
Agree0
Disagree1
Dont rate him self !
Church, Templeton, Judge ?
Agree0

If he was any good why would Forest let him go to a rival, let's set our standards higher than a player you never hear about.

Yeah blackstocks poor but has his moments we do have 25 million so we have loads of money
