Do off topic posts really annoy people that much? It's pretty easy to just glance at them, realise you don't care, and then move on isn't it? Its a transfer speculation thread anyway, if there was any concrete information it would be in the news or contracted player thread anyway. 

(Yes, I know this post is off topic, just like the Vermont penis maple syrup one. Mods take control)

The problem is you come to the website, see thirty or so unread posts and get excited that there must be an anouncement. Then you just read the same old shark

Seriously Ryan - if you see 30 odd posts in this thread, or in the U23 thre ad of ineligibility for example, and you actually get excited, sorry mate, you're either stupid, or a slow learner, or stupid and a slow learner. You've been around here long enough to know better.

Me in a nut shell. I know it's unlikely but one day it will happen and why not now? Hmm I should go but a lotto ticket, winning that is about the same odds as news on a striker.

Simon Hampton saying that it's likely he's Dutch and a 'friend of Bonevacia's.' Possible he just got it from my random ranting from this thread.

Big Jeff on the way.

If it's a former team mate of Roly's that could be someone quite decent.

Sarpong or someone else?

Luis Suarez was Roly's team mate at Ajax in 2010-11. Just saying!

List of Roly's team mates at Ajax 2010 - 2011 season:

Unfortunately most of the attacking players from that squad are beyond the Phoenix's reach (Christian Eriksen, Siem de Jong, Ryan Babel, Sulejmani, Sigborsson etc.)

Roly's team mates at Roda JC 2013 - 2014 season:

https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roda_JC_Kerkrade_in_het_seizoen_2013/14#Selectie

Florian Jozefzoon, the PSV Eindhoven striker would know Roly well, both having played together at Ajax and were on loan together at NAC:

Sarpong is a free agent at the moment though, whereas Jozefzoon is still contracted to PSV

the 7 most expensive Dutch free agent strikers on Transfermarkt, including a certain Jeffrey....they go down in price from left to right.  Anyone for a game of top trumps?

So we swipe right on the ones we want to sign, and left on the ones we don't? Or is it the other way around? I'm not familiar with this app

I could look up the Ashley Madison dump and see if there are any strikers who want to do the dirty on their contract

Has that twitter account been right before about rumours?

They have a football agent that feeds them info, normally very accurate especially with NSW deals.

The agent has been shown many times in the past to simply be trying to up prices on players he represents though.

"He's operating a turnstile down the left flank"

Have been wrong just as many times as they've been right.

I would be shocked if we've offered Oar that much ,personally. Would be a departure on how we've been run previously.

Decent player. That's big money though.

Not a big goal-scorer for Utrecht. Another turn-a-winger-into-a-striker project for Ernie.

Can't really believe his next move is back to the A-League. Only a month ago he said "“I am staying in Europe, 100 per cent" although this week he did admit "If the situation doesn't change in the next few weeks I would be more open to offers from Asia, the A-League and the Middle East".

Would be a bit of a coup if it doesn't bankrupt us.

it's surely no coincidence that Oars are legal in both the Netherlands and New Zealand?

He was marquee. Ernie also said that the Nix are puting the money made from selling Nathan back into the squad.

He's only good if it's a key pass. If it's not a key pass he sucks. As long as he realises in Ernie's system every pass is a key one then we'll be fine.
