    Will cost a bit as Crawley don't need to sell.

    Tubbs is an excellent player, not sure about the step up though but a real goal getter, always in the right place at the right time

    Would cost a fortune, interesting rumour though

    would be a terrific signing if we could get him to be honest! And would be nice to beat palarse to a signing too! Although on his twitter he says something about freedman saying he is a legend - so he would probably choose them over us if he had the choice i would imagine...

    This one's come out of nowhere and I can't imagine we'd think about paying what Crawley would want for him. 

    Are Palace definitely known to be interested? Maybe the agent has leaked a fake rumour about us joining the race to try to get Palace to bump up their offer?

    Freedman said that the only business Palace would be doing it to renew that loans that they've got.

    A typical 'skysports understands' piece - Absolutely nothing of any substance in it all.

    We might be tracking a player and might be lining up a bid to test a teams resolve!?!

    Wow!

    Why does the window SLAM shut? Why can't it just shut?

    Same reason we swoop or pounce on players, never just sign them up.

    The hinges are very rusty, you have to give it a big ol tug to get it to close properly. FACT,

    Don't sign him , 40 goals in 45 games ,  totally unproven at this level, and he's only 5 foot 9.

    Perhaps its part of the development strategy ? If like with Pope and Evina we can afford to take a punt then why not ? Can't see him displacing BWP or Hayes and not a replacement for Benson and would be behind Euell so bring it on.

    Somebody on Sky described it as a transfer "door" the other day.

    I don't think we can call it part of the development strategy as he's 27 years old.

    They must believe he's good enough to make a difference this season (if this rumour has any truth to it at all)

    theres a big difference in the age as well fleetwood would of been in his early twentys when he tried to make the step up tubbs is 27 could make no diference at all but maybe thats why he didnt do so well

    I am all in favour of signing players that are in form as I believe they cache take that form into what ever and which ever club they join, even if only for 1 season.



    But and its a big but u can only sign them if you intend to play them, signing these players and keeping them in the bench does not work and causes them to be a flop or seem to be a flop .


    This could be a potential risk for both tubbs and SCP . And for that reason I am out on this one

    Is he fast?

    He could cost Wright-Phillips his place (I hope that WP's knee is not going to be a cause for concern all season). Tubbs is a natural, though, as has been said, untried above conference/division2 level
