Sunderland Pair Close to Completing Move
Sunderland Pair Close to Completing Move
Tuesday, 1st Sep 2009 09:39

Town’s double move for Sunderland duo Grant Leadbitter and Carlos Edwards is very close to being done. Sources in the North-East report that only the paperwork is still to be completed before the duo are confirmed as Town players.

The clubs agreed a joint fee reported to be £2.8 million rising to £4 million last week and the pair have been talking personal terms with the Blues ever since.

We need leadbitter, Edwards, wood and beckford maybe carsley to add some much needed strength and character to the midfield, maybe venegoor of hesselink (he maybe slow but a brilliant finisher and knows the way to goal)

Come on keano suprise us, pull it right out of the bag UTT

I like many am glued to skysports news on transfer deadline day, looks like the paperwork for edwards and leadbitter has been finalised and just awaiting confirmation. im excited about edwards but not so much bout leadbitter, would have rather got watson but he's gone to play for the football super power that is Jim Magilton !!! the signing of wood from sheff weds would be a gd addition, seem to remember against shef weds last season in the freezin cold he had a great battle with walters all game, get him in

Can people stop talking about Gio coming back, it ain't happening. Let's concentrate our attentions to the players who ARE coming to PR.

Things are looking up!

bedsitfc added 12:46 - Sep 1
can see them 2 plus another 3, 2 defenders and a forward

Jimmy86 added 12:48 - Sep 1
well I would love it if Gio was to come on loan, is there any truth in these rumours people have been posting on here?
0

hype313 added 12:52 - Sep 1
They are just rumours and from what i have seen on a couple of sites, as always rumours 90% of the time dont come off, but as far as Gio is concerned, he hasnt gone anywhere, he is way down the pecking order at WHL, RK likes him and he loved his time here...Who knows??

My mate runs a papershop near Portman Road and he text me this morning to say that Giovanni Dos Santos wandered in with a grin on his face and purchased some Skittles and a packet of Green Extra.......

Leadbitter and Edwards paperwork has been faxed to FA 5 minutes ago, apparantly awaiting confirmation from FA but personal terms have been agreed. This is unofficial word from inside Portman Rd at the moment... looking very likely now but until it's confirmed by Town still not 100%!!
