Rumours
By: Jim | June 17th, 2008Not the Fleetwood Mac album of blessed memory, but a round-up of where Argyle’s summer spending (and selling) spree has got to.
First the facts. No-one has been bought or sold. Paul Connolly will move to Derby on a Bosman transfer on July 1. Marcel Seip remains on the transfer list. The Argyle Board will discuss Luke McCormick’s future at their next meeting.
Hull manager Phil Brown is on the record as admitting an interest in left winger Peter Halmosi, but he is not prepared to pay the asking price, thought to be in the region of £3 million. In which case, why choose to discuss him in the national media? Brown is the Jim Magilton de nos jours.
Argyle are thought to be close to a deal with Barnet wide man Jason Puncheon, possibly around the £400K mark (OK, that’s a guess, based on the fact Leeds had a bid of £250K turned down). Team mates Joe Devera (right back) and Albert Adomoah (right wing) may also be in Sturrock’s sights.
Luggy is not interested in any more Scottish players.
Argyle are among half-a-dozen Championship clubs interested in Austrian international, Jurgen Sauemel.
Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
That’s it.

Still bitter about us nicking Norris off you? I would be, he’s pretty good. Sadly for Plymouth, 2008-09 could be a very long season. Now that you have established yourselves as a good Championship side, bigger sides will come in and take your good players. Brown has gone public about taking Halmosi because it sounds a very loud message to the player that a Premiership team want him. You’ll be lucky to have him by August.

I think we accept Halmosi has gone. It’s important, though, that the Board stick out for the right price – vide Norris. I love Chuck to death, but no way in the world was he worth £2.8 million. All Argyle should be saying to Brown is, £3 million is the price – pay up or shut up. But sure, the way managers like Brown and Magilton choose to unsettle players by openly discussing them in the media is a disgrace and I wish more was done about it.
By the way, I hope you’ve got a license to publish those fixtures – otherwise DataCorp and the FL will be coming down on you – and theoffside – like a ton of bricks.
