James Constable

Looks like we're getting him on a season long loan. Excellent news in my opinion.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall when Clarke and Constable meet for the first time.

Terrific news indeed.

Constable is a bustling striker, aggressive and turns well in the box
and has a good shot on him. He will get goals for Oxford.

Burnell, Carruthers, Haldane (if we get him) and Constable
should mean a strong challenge for the title (there, I said it)

Good transfer business from Patto who has done brilliantly to get this type of quality in.

HOWEVER&gt&gt&gtI WANT TO SEE US ANNOUNCE THESE DEALS PDQ !!

true - it seems strange that everyone seems to have announced these deals except the club (Bristol, Shrewsbury, Skysports News, BBC, Patterson)...I hope we don't get Matt Greened again.

It seems that transfers/loans get tied up mid-afternoon after the new players have trained, met their new team mates and lunch has been eaten.

Photographers normally have to be arranged too.

Anyone one have any idea what this players goals to game ratio is? or how many apps/goals he has got for the clubs he has plyed for?

Just to give me some idea.

A good lower-league player in Football Manager from my experience, and played on loan at Oxford (from Walsall) in one of my FM 2006 outings. Hmmm.....

Must admit I'm getting almost as excited about the new signings as I did back in summer 2004 when we got hold of Bradbury et al. Hopefully, this lot will gel. It seems like we have quite a canny manager.[/url]
