Bent at training ground rumour - clarification

[Linz]

Wasn't our Foxy that said it.

It was this Foxy on Twitter:

@s24su at united academy with kids and wearing no21 is Marcus bent!

Does that make it more or less reliable?

Now our Foxy has had an apolgy on Bladesmad, someone put 2 and 2 together and came up with 5, in this case it wasn't 5 it was wrong Foxy.............

Poor Foxy

He's all busy at work completely oblivious to the (laughably tame and archaic) abuse he's getting and the fact that people aged him by three years!

Serves me right for re-tweeting rumours... although I have got a new nickname for him out of it so all is not lost

A number of posters have said he was at the Lane/academy today.

However, Phoenix has posted that talks have stalled as we can't afford his wage demands

This I suppose would account for MA's statement that he hoped to have signed a prem player today.

If it is Bent tho, I would say it's very debatable as to whether he is actually a prem player.

Yes he's at at a prem club, but seriously, 13 turnouts in two and a half years?

My worry is that we push the boat out to get him and then can't afford to address the other positions that need looking at

Is it possible that the process has stalled because the move by Keane to Bham has been called off due to financial reasons

 

[sothall blade]

oh my god,please not him,being skint has its advantages

Hi, I'm the foxy who started this whole Bent thing, i did see him along with plenty of others as it was a schools football tournament at the academy. he came into the indoor pitch area had a quick look around and popped out again and went to the gym. Perhaps he failed a medical, perhaps his wage demands are a stumbling block, i don't know i didn't speak to him just saw him!

Perhaps the club are waiting to steal the show on the Late Night Kick Off tonight?

Perhaps Old Bent is sleeping on it?

Perhaps the club doesn't have a pot to piss in and would rather sign some young lad with a shot as hard as shearers and the potential to be just as good....oh wait.

By others, do you mean other people saw him or that he was there with other players?
