Greg Halford makes it a Hat Trick.
News today that Greg Halford has signed for Wolves for...wait for it...an undisclosed fee. He's long been Sunderland's utility man, playing on both the right wing, right mid and right back. He also had a rather successful spell with Sheffield United last season, during that period they had that they were ripping up trees in the chase for the top. A great bit of cover then for both Foley and Kightly, something we certainly lacked last season, as we were often left looking at our shoes for ideas whenever either of those were injured or unavailable.
The recruitment goes on....I've heard rumours of Dunne?
I hope so, so I can say "It's a Dunne deal"...but other than that, my heart's still set on Mancienne.
Tarra-a-bit!

Training Camp. Will Bodde turn up this time?
After the Swedish training camp was cancelled many thought Swans would stay at home but Sousa has pulled some strings and is taking the boys back to his homeland for a week of intensive training. It is reported that the training will be doubled in a bid to brush away those post-season cobwebs. Garry Monk ...

Old, new, borrowed and blue
For once, borrowed isn't a term applicable to the players recruited by the club thus far. However, I'm sure that'll change come the last day of August when through the usual combination of sheer amateurism and blind panic we bring in the 2009/10 model of Eddie Johnson on weekly wages that amount to the accumulative sum of MPs expense claims. So while the middle-classes and the BBC staff in its entirety migrated to a field in Somerset owned by a guy who persists in putting a wig on his chin rather than his scalp, Cardiff City were busy selling players the dream. Here are the latest recruits.
THE NEW AND BLUE
Mark Hudson, 27, CB, £1m (from Charlton Athletic)
There are a number of reasons why one could be wary/pessimistic about the capture of a man who may or may not own a woman's fashion store with a sibling. For starters, last season he played every week in the Championship's worst (too kind?) side. Secondly, he's here for an "adventure": This isn't the bloody Scooby Doo show, son! Our hearts could do without Surrey's version of Indiana Jones adhering to a dictionary definition of adventure - a bold, usually risky undertaking; hazardous action of uncertain outcome - this campaign. Thirdly, he may be 27 years old but it hasn't all been plain sailing or regular game time. And last but not least is the fact that Hudson is clearly a pupil at the Pelé School of Quotes i.e. whatever he says, the opposite will happen. Take for example the reasons why he deserted Palace last summer. Hello again former mistress, Miss League One? Eek!

Wolves sign Andrew Surman - The return of the undisclosed fee.
That's probably due to Southampton having a fire sale in order to pay the electric bill this month rather than Wolves wanting to keep it under wraps. In signing Surman we've added another England U-21 to the squad which already boasts Stearman, Kightly and Ebanks Blake (who ...

Wolves Sign Doyle for a Club Record 6.5 Million.
A record signing for Wolves, and we’re talking serious money, as Kevin Doyle has signed for 6.5 Million pounds. I’ve got to say, as Wolves usually keep the fee they play for players “undisclosed” that this is perhaps a bit of a sound off to the rest ...
