New signings on the way?

[Charlie Farnsbarnes]

From today's Herts Advertiser.

 

CITY have acted to strengthen their squad by putting in seven day approaches from Saturday's opponents Bedford Town and potential FA Cup opponents Chelmsford City.

 

Steve Cook and Gary Roberts have targeted Eagles defender Lee Harvey and City's ex-Sunderland and Luton Town striker Phil Gray as Saints aim to maintain their superb start to the season.

 

Gray, who also counts Oxford and Burnley amongst his former clubs, played in the old First Division for the Hatters and has 26 Northern Irish caps to his name.

 

Harvey, who also played at league level with Brentford is a firm favourite at the New Eyrie and won the Players' Player of the Year Award last season. It is hoped both players will be available for Saturday's clash at Bedford, with Saints missing several players.

Phil Gray played for Spurs too, back in the late 80's/early 90's.

[Charlie Farnsbarnes]

Did he make many appearances for the first team? I seem to remember Luton paid Spurs something like £250,000 for him. Does that sound right to you?

[Laz]

Is that the Lee Harvey we had from Stevenage?

[Charlie Farnsbarnes]

Sure is. Quality player.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

It's the Lee Harvey we signed from Aylesbury, I'd have thought?? The Stevenage one wasn't a defender, was he??

 

Phil Gray made a few first team appearances for Spurs, mainly as sub I think.

[Laz]

I thought the other one was at Boreham Wood. Well he was the other day when we played them.

[Charlie Farnsbarnes]

Now Zealo, I realise you may in the first stages of jet lag so I'll type this very slowly for you. The one you are talking about (i.e. the one with all the hair) is the one that is now player/managing at Boreham Wood. The one we are interested in, is the one who played in the midfield for us a couple of seasons or so ago and who is now playing in the back four at Bedford.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Fair enough then. Phew - that's a relief!!

[Laz]

So it is the geezer from Stevenage.

[Charlie Farnsbarnes]

Yep.

See how it's possibly confusing, even to the less jet-lagged of us??

[Laz]

Zealster, if you spent less time honeymooning and more time coming to City you would have seen the lanky Lee Harvey the other week.

[Colin Zeal EFM]

When you say the "lanky" Lee Harvey, did you not mean to start the adjective with a "W" instead of an "L"??

[Laz]

I think both adjectives would do. How about manky and skanky?

[SAINTS64MAD]

Is it the tall one or small one?

[Rob_the_Saint]

It's this one!
