Just how bizarre can things get? The Beeb have a headline saying that Mapps is going no where, but when you read the bit that follows it doesn't say that at all. Pardew says that he has made a final bid, yet Watford say they haven't received it. Watford may make signings before the deadline, but does that depend on Mapps going? Good job we are not playing a match tonight.
Well SSN are saying Wigan have had an offer accepted, but the BBC are saying otherwise and there is no news anywhere else. I think we need to follow RookeryMike's advice
With Cisse and Zamora apparently joining QPR, does that mean HH and Tommy Smith are surplus to requirements at The Yard?
Several clubs showing firm interest in Watford striker Marvin Sordell. His camp tell me move unlikely but still time #bbcfootball #watfordfc
Speaking of Arsenal, this made me chuckle: #bbcfootball Jose Mourinho just seen leaving the Emirates - apparently letting Van Persie know, he'll have a defence behind him next year.
Apparently Marv was withdrawn at Baz's request - are we set for a last minute surprise? Whilst everyone was looking at the Mariappa story, something else was afoot?
I used to quite like a visit to Wigan Casino for a night of norvern soul - some of those Wigan young ladies could be very accommodating!
Indeed Sordell has been withdrawn but mariappa starts...the plot thickens...thank god Im out tonight to avoid all of this rumour and counter-rumour
So annoying to lose Sordell potentially at this late stage. I accept he is our prized asset and always likely to leave but no doubt we'll try to get a deal rushed through so we don't get what we can.
Margate's goal scoring machine Appiah has signed for Palace, so we won't be getting him. I see Clark Carlisle has gone on loan to Northampton
