The initial information passed to us by Maverick and Sedge about us chasing Dawson some months back was reliable, personally I think it is a regurgitated rumour which no longer holds substance.andover red said:The continual reference to us signing Dawson makes me think it is all nonsense. He's playing regularly for top 3 Tottenham, performing well, scoring and now captaining the side. And apparently it's only the wages that are proving to be a stumbling block!! :blink:
If we got promoted, and Tottenham reach the CL and strengthen accordingly, maybe we might have a chance. Even then I wouldn't be sure they'd let him go though.

More guess work from Vital
This Is Donny. Change here for the North. said:Kilgallon wasn't even mentioned as a possibility until last week..
thehockleyhustler said:A top Championship defender who's contract is up in the summer, we quite clearly will be targeting a centre-half, fits the bill.
Nothing more than a calculated guess.
I can't believe people fall for this time and time again when history suggests that they know nothing more than the average fan in the street
Nor could Paul Scholes but not a bad player :wink:ad said:£3.5m for Bale is £2.5m too much if Shorey is only worth £1.4m.
He garnered a reptuation for himself through scoring a few cracking goals, but he can't defend to save his life. We should avoid him altogether.

Something along these lines I heard!sedgred said:Thanks Dan,
Dawson needed some games under his belt, Forest neeed a center half, then after recovoring from his injury Dawson has again staked his claim for first team football at Spurs. Unlike other players who we have seen here on loan in recent years, Dawson wanted to come back and play for Forest, although he knew that nothing long term was on the cards.
Also his wages turned out to be a large stumbling block.
Unless we're looking at him to play left midfield (which, if memory serves, is where he started his career for Southampton) with Shorey at left back.ad said:£3.5m for Bale is £2.5m too much if Shorey is only worth £1.4m.
