In the Journal.
Looks like Bob's going for a 6ft2 uncapped 22 year old CB from Vitoria Guimaraes in Portugal. His name is Fernando Jose da Silva Freitas Meira. Bob is quoted: "He is an excellent player", and "Meira is very firm and astute."
Yet another CB, Bob mustn't rate what we've already got. Neither do I much, Helder is OK, but the rest all have major weaknesses imo.
Just a goalie, two midfeilders and a #10 mil forward to get for the start of next season.

'Silva'
Might as well start the ball rolling

Hiho

With apologies to the Lone Ranger's hoss.

'Hindley' also cropped up, but decided not to offer, that in the interests of good taste. -)
