Carlos a change of number for Fraizer Campbell's

Fri Jan 18, 2013 7:57 am

Honestly Carl,

Fraizer Campbell was not happy with the number 25.
Fraizer has asked for number 27, as 2 & 7 makes 9.

So they have had to change it to 27, not number 25.

Reports are that 25 will now be Leo. Reliable source at the club. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Cardiff City close to securing Fraizer Campbell transfer

Cardiff City are believed on the brink of signing Sunderland striker Fraizer Campbell.
BBC Wales has learned that Bluebirds boss Malky MacKay is keen to clinch the deal before the club fly to Dubai for warm weather training on Sunday.


Campbell, 25, has scored once in 15 games for the Black Cats this season
The fee is thought to be in the region of £650,000. Sunderland paid £3.5 million when they signed him from Manchester United in 2009.
Cardiff City's Championship form
22 December: Leicester City 0-1 Cardiff City
26 December: Cardiff City 2-1 Crystal Palace
29 December: Cardiff City 1-0 Millwall
1 January: Birmingham City 0-1 Cardiff City
12 January: Cardiff City 0-0 Ipswich Town
Cardiff's move for Campbell comes as Sunderland bid for Swansea City striker Danny Graham.
Bluebirds captain Mark Hudson says he has been impressed by Campbell in the past.
"I've played against him, he's a good striker, and I'm sure there's one or two others that we've been linked with.
"If we do get the likes of maybe Fraizer in then that's going to be great for us because he's a good striker."
Cardiff City lead the championship by six points from Hull City, were Campbell had his most productive spell as a striker in the 2007/08 season, scoring 15 goals in 32 appearances.
It is that Championship pedigree which could make the former Manchester United player a valuable asset as the Bluebirds' push for promotion.
Cardiff's recent good form has been based on a miserly defence which has conceded just two goals in their last five Championship matches.
They have scored five times in those matches, and Mackay is thought to be looking for more firepower in front of goal.

there is also the issue of the fee being agreed a medical being completed successfully prior to any signing.
it seems to me the only thing agreed at the moment is the wages.
he is not a cardiff player until he has signed on the dotted line

I remember a Inter Milan player who refused to sign for them unless he has 2 numbers that added up to the squad number he couldnt have, cos already registered with other player. Not only that he made them put a plus between the 2 number.


tw*t. :lol:
