Now we don't have to pay for him, it will be interesting to see if he can make the step up. :icon_bigg

after all that harping on about 2.5m theyve gone and taken 1.5m plus add-ons? I don't know how Simon Cox will do ut I believe a good footballer is a good footballer at any level. I think Swindon could be in trouble next season. They were bad enough even with the League's joint top scorer let alone without him...

That took me by surprise......

Today at 11.45 i was following the above named across Watermead Way, and out along the Melton Road in his nice big Silver Merc reg S.7.COX

Had his agent in the passenger seat.

Rather thought he was on his way back from the Walkers........

Maybe an extra £1 million if they are promoted to the prem is worth a lot more when its WBA than when its Leicester?

I'm pretty sure i read that we didnt actually make a bid for him we inquired and were told a price we tried to talk to him and swindon but they wernt very helpfull so we told them to stick it.
So we wern't rejected he was!

Apparantly we did, and we held talks with him, then the Celtic and WBA interest surfaced and suddenly he couldn't be contacted, so Pearson got pissed off with him, rightly so.

i was kinda hoping that we could have signed him never mind you cant win em all :icon_wink

 

[Harbro-Fox]

He compared himself to Sheringham He is about 10ft smaller than him for a start.

You can't come in this late in the day with information like this, we were one name short on the petition we took to Pearson as well. I hope you are happy. :icon_wink

This isn't a 'he iz qualz on u-tube so we shud hav signed him' post, but my West Brom supporting mate just sent me these two goals that he's scored and I thought they were pretty good!

(PS. Also couldn't be bothered to search through 400 posts in the Coxy thread, so sorry if everyone has seen this)

I wonder if wba think they might of spent a bit too much on a league one striker now that swansea have just accepted £2m for scotland

That's a hell of a lot of lolly for a div 1 stiker. DJ Campbell.
