Trafford is in Leeds apparently.

Going to be a great signing! If we get Brandt as well, this will go down as one of the greatest windows for a long time.

Add a few more, and we are looking extremely good for the season ahead.

A reliable source Alf?

Thought it was in greater Devon, Alf?

Look, can we all just use his very nice first name "James" for any posts or comments referring to our potential new young keeper.

All this Traffo.. stuff is playing havoc with my hay fever!

Graham Smyth has reported the flight was empty and nothing to do with Trafford, check your sources

Gazza of, check Graham Smyth's sources, he is rarely reliable and the majority of his info comes from third parties or stuff the club wants us to believe, often the opposite of the truth; he is so unreliable, it's funny.
Got to commend someone with so little talent or knowledge in such a high profile role.

So is Trafford really at Leeds United or not today.?

So many LUFC long winded transfer sagas.

Meanwhile Ipswich, no messing around at all, have smoothly and quickly moved to sign a 6 foot 9 man mountain ( a former Brighton keeper ) for £9 million

What odds he turns out to be one of the signings of the season by next May.

Once an Ipswich fan always an Ipswich fan, eh Baz. ?

Nah not really, Canada.

But Ipswich have had some very good teams and players in their pomp, mid 1970s to early 80s.

So I defo admired them from afar in that era.

Seem to recall they had an excellent team under George Burley later too in 90s or 2000s.

Up the Town lol. ?

Smyth is a mushroom - fed on stuff the club wants him to say, but he is always behind. Ornstein has now confirmed it's very close, and Smyth has had to back down from what he said earlier, more or less. Yep, ok as a source for things after they are fact, but are kept in the dark by the club.

Extremely reliable Mighty.

Agree with you, Baz. Ipswich have made 8 signings and got on with the business. Coventry and Hull have made a couple. We don't need to make 8, but clubs coming up need to improve their squad quickly.
I think Scheperen will be a good signing, and at about £9m he appears to be good value.

They've also bought another keeper on a long term contract, Overlen, for about £4m and will send him out on loan. Obviously thinking ahead.
Maybe we don't need to do that if James is between the sticks at ER for the next 15 years.

Yes, Baz, they were a good team then, for sure.
