The summer 2013 Everton transfer rumourZ thread

How have I gone mental?

Just have.

To be fair I thought 40 a season was a low estimate Mikey

Just because the standard of football in Scotland isn't quite as good as it is in the English Premier League, doesn't mean that ANYONE coming from Scotland isn't capable of doing a job over here.

Big Dunc came from Scotland and he did just fine

Just have.

I'm going to need more evidence to back up this particular hypotenuse

If the £4 m. that Hull have bid for Gary Hooper is accepted by Celtic, we should match it. IMO that is insanely cheap.

I actually like Gary Hooper mate! Finally we agree.

I don't get this £4m bid though. Didnt they turn down £7m from Norwich in January?!

Can't mate. It's way off topic in the Everton forum. It's frowned upon.

Yes, but he's about to enter the final year of his contract, so they've got to cash in this window.

Do you mean hypothesis? Hypotenuse is the side of a triangle.

Look Mikey, his career is already mapped out in the stars. He will sign for a Premiership team, be crap, sign for Wolves, they'll get promoted with him banging in 400 goals in the Championship, he'll be crap in the Premiership again and Wolves will get relegated, he'll then see his days out at St. Mirren and develop an alcohol/drug/wife beating addiction.

Ah I see.

Still quite the dip from £7m to £4m. Although I fear Norwich were offering too much in January.

I'd take him for £4m.

I hope we sign him and he bangs in 20 next season, just so you will have to write (In block capitals in the largest font possible) "I was wrong about Hooper"

He's Scottish, so that just leaves the wife beating on the list.
