I will go for Simion Jackson... but I frankley have no idea! The same Simeon Jackson who has just signed for Norwich Can't see us signing a striker or breaking the transfer record. However a centre back, who played in red last season could be joining very soon, along with a goalkeeper

As I said i had no idea, and never saw the Jackson news...
Also as i just said its a rumor...
however if it was to happen... who COULD it be... nothing wrong with a little subjective thowing of names into the hat...
If you had 200k to waste on a striker who could you tempt to the club?

Personally I wouldn't pay 200K for any striker that has only ever played at league 2 level or below.

I'm guessing defender is Danny O'Donnell who was released by Crewe in the summer? Another ex liverpool youth player like Raven.......
No real idea about the striker. Is it a striker?!

A fair % of that £200k will be needed to pay off the rest of Elder's contract!

a slight variation on the theme. Last season we all enjoyed having a dig at ex-con Lee Hughes. He banged in 20 plus goals for Notts and they got out of L2. So.... a somewhat different law breaker. Marlon King. If (hypothetically) he came to this football club and we could get from him what NCFC got from Hughes, would you take him?

page58 - no, not for me. I heard we are close to signing Raul after his release from the Galaticos. The 200k is a donation to his sporting foundation, and on this, he is looking forward to "a fresh challenge"...... (plus his CM stats look OK I think)

The money will be spent on securing Lionel Ainsworth!
The 2 strikers names being banded about that could be realistic targets are Clayton Donaldson and Marvin Morgan.

I doubt very much if there is any substance in this story. Town are not as finacially well off as many quite wrongly believe. Common sense says that it has to be just a made up rumour that Town are going to splash out 200k on a player.
Just think about it. If it sounds too good to be true, then it more than likely is not true.

Gillingham were reported to be interested in Morgan but have signed Akinfenwa (A great signing at our level) instead, but not really a cheaper option as he is allegedly on 3k a week.
Wycombe are also supposed to be in the chase but will not stretch to 200k.
Tranmere also are sniffing but will only pay 150k tops.
Cannot find anything to link us with him anywhere - but thats how Turner operates, most of his signings are even under the radar of Jamo.
Think there may possibly be an element of truth in that one.

I hope its Brodie from York City but again 200k is a bit steep for a player who aint proven at league 2 level. Marvin Morgan yes please rate him highly. Have heard Le Fondre's name thrown about
Thank god we cant sign Marlon King as his agent stated he'd be signing for a clubin London or near London due to his realse conditions.

you might find out it's Marvin Morgan Aldershot striker,according to news from our end Shrewsbury are interested in him,and if the news is correct Rotherham have already put a bid in for him...
York want 300 to 400k for Brodie

York want 300 to 400k for Brodie Good luck to them, it would take a rich club who can afford to risk that amount of money to take him away, i.e Peterborough when they were buying anybody who kicked a ball straight.

Brodie not for us. He's been linked with Huddersfield, Sheff Utd and Forest. York don't want to sell until last minute as they think it will hit ST sales. Morgan has stated he want's to stay at Aldershot and is not interested in moving. Didn't the Gills bid £200k for him? First heard the rumour about breaking the transfer record a while back. Has it just resurfaced because we are close to the start of the season and GT has said players are coming in this week? He did say 3 (McAlister, Smith & presumably Ainsworth) and perhaps 4 if all went well.

the gillingham bid was bogus,even on the Adershot messageboard it states that shrewsbury are interested in him..
he's in the last year of his contract and they might want to cash in, he might want to stay but there chairman might have other ideas?...
