Right boys, i'm not winding you up or taking the pith, but the forward rdm likes the look of is kane hemmings, you know the one!, released by barnsley and apparently plays for one of the dundee clubs, believe it or not hemmings says he's happy where he is and isn't sure about wanting to join us! far fetched-i thought so but do a look up on it, its only bleedin' well true! so, i'm keeping faith in rdm, he must have seen a gem there or something but wow, that is mega left field, personally, i'd go kemar roofe-but what can you do.

Now I know for fact your full of it and only purpose on here is to cause a stir, the whole Hemmings this has no evidence and Roofe just signed for Leeds lmao! If I was you I'd get a hobby mate but don't stop your good for a laugh or two on here.

we don't need a striker we have loads libor kozak ruddy gestede gabby and aywe that's 4 for 2 places!

chrisAVFC-firstly, i didn't know kemar roofe had signed for leeds, so cheers for letting me know, and i'm gutted we didn't get him, he's going to light up the championship this season, as for hemmings, his agent was asked to confirm if we had made any enquiries about him and he said yes, we had enquired about his availability but his client said he was happy to stay where he was for now, that was reported apparently 4 days ago, so the roofe story, fair play for that, but the hemmings story is true as crazy as it sounds, i'm not saying we were definitely in to sign him, only that we looked into his situation.
like i said previously it was a well left field report, but just the same we asked, just as last summer we enquired about some young 20 year old italian centre forward who played in seria b, nothing came of it (as in probably 99 per cent of cases) but that was another mad one that came up, we all scoffed at the time, but it turned out we had looked at him, so, as kingy says, we don't hear probably almost 100 per cent of what goes on, and what is solid one day is gone in a puff of smoke the next, what more can i say?

I've read that Hemmings has got a £250K buyout clause, wouldn't be a huge gamble at that price, he's from the Midlands area, definitely worth a punt, not 100% the answer though, we need someone with more of a profile and experience, there's got to be someone out there, and I'm hoping RDM is going to surprise us with what he's got up his sleeve, my left field suggestion would be Charlie Austin, although with Pelle and Mane leaving Southampton probs cancels that out?
UTV.

But how can you say Hemmings is the guy RDM wants over everything if we've just inquired.

MrKnowitall.
I think when Villa fans talk about us needing strikers, they are not talking about the quantity we DO have. They are talking about the quality we DON'T have.
10 jul 2016 16:29:17
i agree but we can't just keep buying players we need to sell an nobody wants our players so we have stick otherwise you be having a squad size of barry frys birmingham team over 50. the players are we got are good enough just attuide that's all it is!
10 Jul 2016 18:05:08
Kozak, Gestede and Gabby are not good enough. If you could morph the qualities of all 3 into 1 we might have a decent sub. But that's about as far as it goes.

Crikey, i bet old hemmings ears are burning today! maybe rdm is doing a shrewdy and focusing on a target, but pretending to interested in buying (in this case) hemmings-i mean i didn't know of anyone who knew (even in the media) we were in for elphick, so he definitely seems one step ahead, so we might all just be in for a treat before deadline day, and as we all know, some players still not back from their hols, as long as its not someone like anichebe that's okay!

Would rather take a chance on Bradshaw from Walsall.
10 Jul 2016 21:11:58
Your right, take a look at him at least!
