Wellington Phoenix has signed Filipe Gui Paradela Maciel da Costa who is known as Filipe da Costa from Leeds United.
Its a two year deal for the 23 year old midfielder who prefers the left wing so Daniel will push into the middle of the pitch for Phoenix this season.
The Phoenix are going to announce 3 more signings tomorrow in the form of David Mulligan, Joel Porter And Shannan Cole From Port Vale, Hartlepool And Sydney United Respectively.
Where do you get this stuff?LOL!

In transfer news, fringe Socceroos winger Ahmad Elrich is poised to join minor premiers Central Coast Mariners after rejecting offers from Newcastle Jets and Adelaide United.

I always knew Australia was a bit backward...How can three clubs want this guy?

isn't that exactly the level Royce was at??
yep i think so, I thought we'd aim a bit higher (e.g championship) but I guess Porter has a better international record (or not?? ) and seems to be scoring more regulalry than Brownlie was (again - or not?)

Royce played 15 games for Swindon and scored 2 goals - also went on loan to Chester City - played 4 times without scoring.
Latest stats I could find on Porter was that he's started 105 times Hartlepool, come off the bench 47 times and scored 39 goals plus has 6 goals in 4 appearences for Oz

The Nix are close to signing N.Z. Port Vale's All White right back David Mulligan, and Fulham off-contract Kiwi Simon Elliott.
Ivan Vicelich the All Whites veteran has already indicated to Pignata that he wants to play out his career in Wellington and may sign for the coming season.

The odds seem to have changed with this quote from Tony P in Saturdays Dom Post
"Pignata added that the chances of securing the signature of Australian striker Joel Porter were now "50-50".
The fringe Socceroos player is currently plying his trade with English League One outfit Hartlepool and the Phoenix are keen to nab the 29-year-old as support for season one standout Shane Smeltz.
"I don't think [Porter's] season finishes till May.
"But we've had a chat with him to see what his intentions were and we'll progress it over the next few weeks," Pignata said.
"We want to tidy the squad up sooner rather than later.""

If that's true then it'd be brilliant news. I've never heard of Robbie Elliot though.

I understand our squad size must be 20 to 23 players. Does anyone have a good fix on where we sit at the moment re committed and uncommitted players i.e. something like;
Whitby boy2008-03-08 20:13:42Committed for 2 years; Durante, McCain, Bertos, Lia
Committed for 1 year;
Contract up and renewal decision to be made;

That didn't copy and paste well did it!
Those are Robbie Elliotts career stats. League, FA, League Cup and Other as you go left to right. Below that are the games he's played this season for Hartlepool. He'll be 35 this year so not sure if he's who we want to be signing given the speed of some the attacks we'll be up against.

From this mornings 4 nil over Gillingham for Hartlepool.
Then, after 26 minutes Joel Porter beat two Gillingham defenders on a run from his own half before chipping keeper Derek Stillie for a great solo goal.

I would think that the Elliot rumour goes out the window now that we've signed Durante and McCain
agree with the concerns about Elliot's pace, that's probably one of the reasons we let Rees go
Elliot wont be at the Nix, hopefully he gets fit and gets back into Fulhams first team

I think the conversation was about Robbie Elliott, Tony. But at least you've quashed another rumour.

Porter looks the goods to me.
If Smeltz can come from a lower level in the UK( Conference) and end up second best striker in the A-League then Porter who has shone in the higher 1st league wil be great for us.
lSounds like its only 50/50 according to Terry P. He still has an option with Hartepool for next season. Come on Joel...sign with us. Promise we will never mention the nose(have you seen his photo)
If he doesn't sign I am not sure what the other options are. There have been no other rumours.

Didier Drogba... but seriously you wonder if other strikers are lined up just in case
Yeah a 2nd option is ? But whos really knows whats true until told. No one here. Lets hope we find a good striker, not a worn out has been.
