The postman to return? I'd love to see him back even at 34.

Great idea, follow the signing of a 32 year old with a 34 year old.

If it gets any older then they could possibly recruit you.

I can't believe KP said that Nat. Doesn't he know a team can't play its mascot

Zero relevance to Bolton Wanderers

Christ! I thought Hunt had hung his boots up. 

Especially when I saw him ordering a full English breakfast barm from the cafe on the road from me.

He's had a decent career, hope he's earned enough to be comfortable when he retires fully, It said he's gone part time now. Does he still have the Lamborghini he had when he played for us? 

He'd have been a far better player if he'd remembered to remove the coat hanger from his shirt.

Like him or loathe him Nicky Hunt of Daisy Hill, not only played for his home town club, but held his position in arguably the best Bolton side ever, yet he gets dogs abuse, never understood why in terms of football ability we have had much , much ,worse 128 appearances nearly all at the top level. A young Nicky would have walked into any Bolton Wanderers side.

I’m good friends with Nicky. Once told me his net worth was pushing £2M.

 Not bad! I presume he was on decent money for us but he did end up sliding down the leagues quite quickly so i expect his wages dropped a lot over the years.

Article in the BN has quoted Evatt as saying "we won't be held to ransom by anyone" in his search for new players. Don't want to worry anyone but that phrase is often used to explain away why certain targets aren't signed so I'm hoping that there isn't a problem with Sarcevic.
BN also suggests we're after this chap:

Nixon has said Sarcevic has already signed and Iles wrote this only two days ago! -

I'm guessing that something needs to be rubber stamped by the EFL because we are under an embargo still this season, in the same way as the Doyle signing was 'done' but for some reason took a week to be announced?  

I guess Sarcevic will be announced on Friday just like Doyle was - if not then perhaps that is the time to be concerned.

As for Devitt, this seems a strange one - 30 year old signed on a two year contract by Blackpool last year but hasn't played for them and only apparently played 5 games since for Bradford on loan.

Don't know if he's been injured or something and being under contract we can't sign him anyway until the window opens on the 27th of this month (and I suspect we can't pay a transfer fee still for players whilst under embargo?).



Details on the transfer window here -

So, the transfer window officially opens on July 27 and closes at 11pm on Monday, October 5.
Hoping Wanderers have got their business done way before then...
Premier League clubs can buy domestically between Oct 5-16 (loans or permanent). [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

I won't ever be concerned over a League 2 signing. I've never heard of any of them.

He kept it simple. No bad thing for a full back.

Confirmed now for sarcevic! Another good signing

No, but he was Voted Plymouth’s player of the season and has a good contribution in goals scored and assists.

He’s experience at league two level and helped Plymouth get promoted.
