I'd have put this in the rumour thread, but it's not there, so here will have to do...
It's been reported all over the place today that Rick Parry scotched talk that there had been a move made to bring Robbie back on loan.
From what I'm hearing, this was completely true.
If you ask Rick Parry tomorrow morning however, he may have to give you a different answer.
Pongolle to City on loan til the end of the season, Fowler coming the other way for the same period.
Pongolle will be back with us come summer, and Fowler will be available on a free if he impresses.
Cisse to Lyon on loan for the rest of the season with an option to buy in summer, AN Other in at LFC before the window closes.
All this from a journo mate I used to work with. Nothing in stone yet, as LFC want to sign Cisse's replacement before anything goes ahead. Not a clue how close we are to doing that, or of any names being mooted.
I've also been given the name of a right winger we're about to put an offer in on, but I can't give more on that until the weekend as the guy has a vested interest in the info staying under wraps. If something comes of the offer, it'll please some and disappoint others, is all I'll say. Am guessing our offer will have to improve anyway.
