I am gutted that Andre won't be coming back, especially given the circumstances in which he left, but where of course understandable given his personal situation.

Marcus was one that I thought might give it another year but it was fairly clear Josh wasn't going to!!

Just wanted to say thanks to all for their performances last season & good luck with the future. Good luck goes out to Tony and the team for finding players for next season oh and if he doesn't fancy Vegas, I have a couple of spare weeks coming up soon, could pop over and find some talent :wink :wink

Would be good to see Olu James & Midge back. How long does this off season go on for????

Blimey, all that concrete information as facts from the coach shouldnt feature in the Rumour mill!!!!

hard evidence given out by Tony G. as to who is staying and who isnt and its only JUNE!!!!

Most supporters of other clubs dont have that much information about who has/hasnt signed for the

new season even half way through September!!!!

Is this the start of a new trend confirming who has left before they appear on a Latvian team rota !!!

Looks like Andre is now signed for a Turkish side and playing alongside his Jamaican namesake.
Click the link

Rumours currently reaching the Town Hall that Tony G has quite a few good potential imports identified in Vegas but a more interesting series of rumours concern potential raids on Newcastle - not just the Reggie Jackson story from their board.

On the subject of Reggie if there is something in that rumour I think it would be a fantastic signing.

In for Rob Yanders according to the Newcastle Chronicle - options of us, Mons or the Budgies

Eagles to Rob the Rocks

Good signing for whichever club gets him - wouldn't expect to land him and Reggie though.

Be happy with either to be honest

:roflol2 @ Bonsai

I would actually like to see Midge playing at Newcastle again next year - lifting the Trophy for the Tigers that is :party

Hoping for some good transfer news from any part of Everton soon - sick of the Lescot saga :pullhair so need some good news ...

I would settle for Midge and Moutinhio announced in tomorrows Echo

If Midge leaves the Tigers will he still keep playing for your football team?

OK so no Midge or Moutinho but I did hear a rather nice rumour recently about another player begining with the letter M but I promised I wouldn't share as there were i's left to be dotted and t's waiting to be crossed - so my lips are (for now) sealed.

If it comes off I will be made up.


And gyan Midge looks nothing like Ossie but good effort and reminded me that I meant to do a programme piece trying to pull together a Tigers team from Everton FC first team players. I never got round to it but I certainly wouldn't have had Ossie running the point. I think I would have picked the following.

PG - Arteta
SG - Jags
SF - 'Air' Tim Cahill
PF - Yak
C - Fellaini

Anthony Gardner would have been a good shout if he were still at Everton! Interesting team though.

Our Tigers Wikipedia site has some interesting additions to our 'current' roster. Pat Jefferson and Bizarely Tim Howard (EFCs Goalkeeper)!!!!
Wiki Tigers
:laugh

Also not sure how reliable eurobasket.net rosters are. I thought they were usually correct. But they show us as having only one current player - Olu. Where is Bang Bang?

Also on gbbasketball.net Paul Nilson talks about an as yet unannounced Tigers signing who has played part of his career in Spain.

Wonder who that is? No doubt Bada is sworn to secrecy!

Jeff King Rumour Mill 2

Interesting stuff from the King - looks like we are biding our time until announcing the squad

Quote:
 
all I can tell you about The Tiggers is that they are done and dusted and just biding their time before announcing


Some interesting stuff about the Tigers and other teams. Midge's retirement still looking likely :tsk and he doesn't think we will be getting Tap, Trey and Toney - but doesn't know for sure.

I am not so sure that we will not be seeing at least one of the three - such is the strength of a particular rumour coming from one or two folk unconnected to the Tigers.

Despite the lack of announcements I would find it hard to believe Tony hadn't got everything sorted before Eurobasket. I will try and speak with him at Eurobasket in Warsaw and see if I can extract any info.

I don’t believe “The Newcastle Three” will land there though???


Funny - I read that as you won't get All Three but it could mean maybe one or two joining?

Everton have signed a combo guard and have a verbal agreement with a 3/4 that looks very good and could really rip it up in the L. But, a verbal agreement is not an inked agreement and that’s why no announcements have been made or chickens counted.

I think they’ll land a US PG as well who, if they get him could be very, very good in the BBL. Rumours also continue to place Big Tap in Everton Blue and whilst this is not yet cast in stone and as done a deal as some might think, I hear it is still a possibility but then so is everything until ink dries!!!


Tap persists to be a rumour - liking the Point Guard rumour if it is the same one that I recently overheard whispered.

PG rumour is still on the board as far as I'm concerned, I could give you a name but I'd get shot........Also a big guy with a UK passport signed as I'm lead to believe and could be a real BBL star!!!

Have been told of another import but and this one is interesting.....................................no-one is letting on about your third import!!!

Interesting after the first season Tigers had everyone on a 2 year contract and everything was signed and sorted so early. This season completely the opposite but I would be starting to wonder who would be arriving, wonder, not worry as Tigers "found " Andre from somewhere. I wouldnt be surprised to see a full title challenging squad suddenly appear.

I will be a bit more teasing about the PG you are referring to Jeff to see if we have heard about the same bloke

Does his first name begin with a K?

What's the reason for Everton's silence on transfers? When can we expect confirmations?
Also does anybody know if we're playing any friendlies? And if so when? I'm quite new to the bbl and struggling to get infos...

and has been part of Finch's GB camps for the last couple of years
