Spurs centre-half John Scales looks set to decide whether he joins Town by Saturday. The former Wimbledon and Liverpool man, recently released by Spurs, is available on a free. He has spoken to George Burley, but has had offers from elsewhere including former club Wimbledon and Portsmouth. A move to a Premiership club would of course be attractive, but the 33-year-old may have to weigh up other factors.
Coventry are willing to listen to offers from Gary Breen according to chairman Bryan Richardson, although the figure of £2 million has been suggested as being too low for the former Birmingham man who has two years left on his contract.
Adam Tanner is likely to go on trial at Peterborough before the beginning of the season. The former Town man was on a short-term deal at London Road before the end of last season, but injury prevented him playing. Now Barry Fry has offered him the opportunity to impress, although Tanner says he has other clubs interested in him.
Oh yeah, usually scurrilous sources have suggested that Town are among a number of clubs interested in Noel Whelan. Can't see BUrley being interested in a player with his reputation.
