BATES OUT !
Speaking on Yorkshire Radio, Bates said,
"I must urge the fans to have patience. There will not be much movement over the next month or 2."

Unbelievable5
Well if this is true, looks like warnock will be walking aswell, if hes true to his word....we shall see who the bulls***er is?
Agree5
Disagree1
Surely he is just saying that to get people off his back and calm all media speculation down. As if their not going to continue buying/selling through summer, we would end up with out a team otherwise!
Agree3
Disagree0
Im unsure with the meanig of this like you say neil would walk could he possibly mean they cant confirm signings untill july even though terms etc agreed i dont know just a thought
Agree1
Disagree0
It says there will not be Much movement, it does not say there will be NO movement, why are you trying to cause disharmony?
Agree1
Disagree0
Warnock would not say i want 2 t 3 players in before end of may, if bates wasn't goin to do that. bates always trys his hardest to keep transfers low key. WATCH THIS SPACE!! mot4life
Agree1
Disagree0
Maybe he means that signings wont be unveiled until July when contracts expire? Plus isnt 1st July the 'official' date of transfer window opening?
Agree1
Disagree0
Why do fans listen to a word that 80 year old loser ever says ,i wouldnt give him the time of day,always bad mouthing the fans,if the fans ignored him the better we would all be,he loves been the villian and craves the attention.

Bates is tight with hiis money bt who isnt. He saved us in my eyes and hes doin a great job in buildind our club for the future. Give him a break
Agree1
Disagree2
I think the point Bates is trying to make is that alot of contract for players run to July 1st and it makes no financial sense to conclude the deal prior to that date as the host club still is paying the players wages. Common sense really

The club has applied for the large Casino licence available in the City, along with 4 other potential venues.

news flash !! george boyd aint a winger !! hes an attacking midfielder and nt that great drifts in and out of games ! do we really want a peterboro cast off couldnt cut it at forest ?? mot !!
Believable5
Unbelievable3
Love snoddy but thats what he does and it all comes down to what you do when you drift back into the game. Which tells you he's a good player, like snoddy can pull a rabbit out the hat right when you need it. mot4life
Agree5
Disagree1
Your thinking of the wrong Boyd if your talking about him cutting at Forest... Where he never played! That Boyds the one who was a striker and failed miserably before jetting off abroad (somewhere in Turkey I think). {Ed007's Note - Kris Boyd. He is now in the MLS.}
Agree2
Disagree0
George Boyd WAS on loan at Forest. Look it up....
Agree1
Disagree1
Any player can have a bad spell somewhere, Boyds a quality player
Agree1
Disagree0
If I remember correctly Boyd went on loan to forest and played around 6 games which isn't enough for anyone to settle in an area. Whenever he has played us he has looked great and been by far Peterborough's best player. He versatility across the midfield is what we need.

All our targets will be probably taken by august bates, probably the reason why Simon Grayson always said we missed out on the player as bates won't pay there wages until the season starts, also doesnt Warnock want his players in by pre season? Listen to Warnock not bates! Bates Out!
Believable2
Unbelievable2
I listened to bates and he talks sh-t all the time telling us he will not pay wages over season break. NEWS FLASH BIRDSEYE! you invest nish into are club now, its we the supporters with are hard earned cash that pays wages. NOT YOU! and keep the bull---t story of we scared off investers at bourgh game to your tin pot yes men. If he was scared off, it can only be because he looked at your investment in the club and thought. OMG!! this man is smoking hardcore.NOW DO ONE YOU SOUTHERN FAIRY!! mot4life
Agree3
Disagree2
As much as i would like us to have signed all of our players by June, people need to realise that its the 10th of May! The premiership still have league games left and the championship and below still have yet to finish the playoffs. Players wont know what league they are going to be in as of yet. Lets just wait and see and voice the concerns when the season has actually started in 3 months time if we dont sign anyone. Keep the faith, in Warnock we trust.

Newsflash Ken Bates has just said we wont be signing anyone until August as he doesn't want to pay players wages during the summer while they wont be playing football lol. Get ready for another season of disappointment.
Bates Out!
Believable2
Unbelievable4
It's Bates bs. If this were true Warnock would have gone by now. I've heard we've actually already made a few signings but can't announce them until July. Chill out man, listen to Warnock, not Bates.
Agree4
Disagree0
I have a feeling that many fans will be let down with all these names that are getting flung about.....I bet half the new team will be from the academy to keep wages low....
Agree0
Disagree2
If you actually look at what Bates said, it doesn't sound all that negative. For instance, he seems to imply that of the players offered new contracts White may be the only one not to re-sign. Personally I would settle for that.
Agree2
Disagree1
Sorry worrying, if u really think we cant sign anyone for a while then your as daft as Grayson, Warnock and his people will be working full out and probably calming speculation down, n I agree I don't think they will be the big obvious names but I won't be dissapointed,most are average and probably more interested in picking the pay packet up, hungry young players Warnock said, and Pearce is a great start, everything with a pinch of salt with bates, don't worry people

Really looking forward to next season. Being linked with some good players. In my opinion I would bring in Paul Robinson in goal, Kilgallon, Scharner and a new left back for defence. Try and bring in George Boyd for the wing, Paul Green, Joel Ward or Peter Whittingham for centre mids and Jermaine Beckford for goals. Also look at Simon Cox and DJ Campbell.
Robinson
Lees Kilgallon Pearce ???
Snodgrass Ward Whittingham Boyd
Beckford Campbell

What about tommy spurr for left back

Lees is not a right back

Really... thats worse than what we have now -_- {Ed037's Note - Are you being serious mate? That's a side with real quality}
Agree0

Danny rose left leeds because he thought he was bigger than the club, do you not remember him gobbing off, and Kasper wasnt as good as people makes him out to be

Don't expect another centre back to come in, bates has said Pearce and lees to be our centre back partnership for next season. Also bates doesn't expect much to happen until July because he doesn't want to pay out wages when they arnt playing #tightuseless bates out
Believable3
Unbelievable3
This is nonsense, Lees will be on the bench next season. We'll sign at least one more centre-half, probably two.
Agree3
Disagree2
Well our 1st choice pairing will be pearce and lees, and rightly so. back up bein kisnorbo and bromby. i think we need a bit more quality than kisnorbo or bromby
Agree0
Disagree2
I'd be amazed at anyone actually believing that we won't sign another centre-half. Bruce has been released and O'Brien will be sold, leaving only Bromby (could be out for all next season) and Kisnorbo (how many times has he played in the last two years?) as back-up for Pearce and Lees. Would Warnock happily enter a new season with these options? Not at all.
Agree3

Youll do well with bromby being out for a year mate
