Transfer rumours: I'll take them all in one basket since they are likely to be equally relevant. Today is the 14:th of October, that means it's 3 and a half months until the January transfer window closes.
The economy of several clubs, including the Club, is very uncertain. The funds to buy or the incitement to sell have never been more uncertain and even if the teams had made up their minds, the players doesn't have a clue as to what a transfer would mean in terms of what other players will stay or go. Most, if not all, players will wait and see before sending their agents out on the hunt for another team. This is of course more relevant for players tempted to go to teams possibly in a financial squeeze.
To me it sounds like people are trying to guess the outcome of a game when the rules are not yet decided - such guesses are doomed to be as accurate as chance, at best.
Obviously teams and agents will try to unsettle players, and buyers will always try to "position them selves" to be in a good spot if players actually are to be sold.
However, until the pieces are present to build a puzzle that make sense I will not bother.

Reason or believe - Part 1
I have deliberately tried not to comment on all kinds of "news" that's been out lately, but let's be reasonable - that is, let's reason about them.

Please Joppe, some of us need transfer rumours regardless of any global financial meltdown that might be going on.
As long as it concerns 17-year old Balcanians with catchy stage-names go ahead! ;-)
But I guess supporters of clubs with some financial cred may, perhaps, indulge in such extravagances.
West Ham supporters should, for now, focus on whether Quashie goes out on loan!
