Contrary to the claims last week that Town's bid for Marcus Stewart had been turned down it seems that the deal may well still be on. Town claim that Huddersfield haven't turned down their bid and that negotiations between the clubs are nearing completion. A fee it seems on the verge of being agreed and the deal could well be complete by the middle of this week. Town manager George Burley said last week that he wanted things settled one way or another by the middle of this week and it could well be the case.

Whether Stewart wants to join Town and will agree to any contract offered will be another stumbling block but with Town in the top six payers in the Division it is likely he would get a better deal here than at Huddersfield.

More speculation as it happens and perhaps even some real news at some point.
