Kennedy Link Mon 19th Mar 2001 10:11 Further to the previous links other sources are reporting that Town are to launch a £1.5 million bid for Manchester City's Mark Kennedy. We've apparently watched him twice in the reserves recently and want to make him the attacking midfielder we've been after for so long. |

Karic Returns Wed 14th Mar 2001 09:43 Amir Karic has returned early from his spell at Crystal Palace after failing to impress at the London club. The piece written by a Palace fan we posted a couple of days ago suggsted he was having a bad time of it and Alan Smith has decided enough is enough. |
Kerr Trial Confirmed Tue 13th Mar 2001 09:58 The Mark Kerr trial as reported on Saturday and yesterday has it seems already gone ahead. The 19-year-old Scot spent time with Town last week and is said to have impressed in training. However, the Leeds link too seems very real and Town may have a fight on their hands to sign the Falkirk man. |
Kerr Offer Made Mon 12th Mar 2001 16:49 Reports are suggesting that not only is Mark Kerr coming on trial at Town, but that the Blues have already put a firm bid in for the young Scot. And Leeds are also reported to be lining up a rival bid for the 19-year-old. |
Kerr on Trial Sat 10th Mar 2001 21:09 Reports are claiming that Falkirk's Mark Kerr is to come on trial at Town. The 18-year-old has long been a target of the Blues, but they are concerned that the level of football he is playing at the moment (Scottish First Division) isn't of a high enough standard for him to be properly judged. |
Abidallah Signs Deal Thu 08th Mar 2001 10:07 Nabil Abidallah has signed a new deal with Town that keeps him with the Blues until 2004. Abidallah made his first team debut as sub against Everton and came on again in Sunday's game with Bradford. |
Wilnis to Fight Thu 08th Mar 2001 09:48 Fabian Wilnis has said he will fight for his first team place. The Dutchman looks the obvious candidate to miss out now that George Burley has signed Chris Makin, like Wilnis primarily a right-back. Town manager George Burley told Wilnis he was about to bring in another defender so Makin's arrival was no surprise to the Dutchman. |
