33 days to the new season and Cardiff want some players out (hopefully getting money for them) and some players in (hopefully paying nothing for them) and the names keep coming.
A look at the latest runners and riders.
WHO'S COMING THEN?
Robbie Fowler (I still think we've more chance of Pauline or Arthur Fowler than Robbie) is rumoured to remain interested - whatever that means - with talks held between his agent and Peter Ridsdale over the weekend. A key sticking point appears to remain how we find enough money for one the richest men in the UK who can't possibly need the money anyway. City are offering a wages plus sponsorship deal with the begging bowl out in the community, the latest suggestion is that Redrow Homes - previous sponsors and builders of houses on Ninian Park when the world's favourite stadium gets demolished - may be helping. However when Robbie has more homes than Redrow, will it help?
Trevor Sinclair (nicknamed C5 as he shares the pace of a Sinclair C5 at his age) was exclaimed as signing (source: The Echo so it must be true then) but, in true panto style, Peter Ridsdale declared "oh no, his isn't".presumably from overseas as he is on holiday in Florida.
A Cyrpiot international right-sided midfielder triallist impressed in a friendly at Carmarthen so is with the squad at their Portugal training camp. If he fails, expect his next appearance to be at your favourite Caroline Street kebab shop anytime soon.
Cardiff are still looking for another keeper, midfielder and striker so expect the talk to continue.
WHO'S GOING THEN?
Nobody it seems as nobody wants them. Well none expect our Academy kids and Michael Chopra, the jewel in our crown. Hot on the heels of Peter Ridsdale satting City had declined a substantial weekend offer for the player comes rumours that it arrived from Roy Keane at Sunderland, Chops' most despised native rivals. Expect Chops rumours to run until he leaves or the transfer deadline expires in several weeks.
EX-PLAYERS
This time last year, City couuldn't put together the £1.5M package to buy Jason Koumas. Today, that man gets sold to Wigan form £5.3M instead.
City stalwart keeper Neil Alexander looks set to sign for Championship rivals Ipswich while we struggle to adequately replace him whilst the forgotten man, Rhys Weston (Neil Alexander's brother in law) looks set for a lifeline challenge at League One Walsall.
Hurry up back football, I can't take much more of this!!!
