May the Norse be with us

Icelandic midfielder Brynjar Gunnarsson has signed a one year contract. As previously suggested on the 106 Twitter feed he is still very much seen as a man who can do a job in the Championship, and his hunger and commitment have been duly rewarded. Nicky Hammond remarked "He is a very good player, his quality gives him great versatility and he continues to set a good example for the younger players. He has a big part to play this season." I couldn't agree more. Bryn can be vital in helping bring through those youngsters which we all know BR will be keen to do. Not only does he have the proverbial 'good engine' but let's not forget that he has chipped in with some vital goals over the years. Good to have him on board still.

Doyle heads to Molineux for £6.5m

Doyler's off to Wolves then. Loads has been said on this already, so I'll not drone on - after all it was only a matter of who and when, not if. Dunno why but I watched this press conference and it made me feel a little queasy to be honest. He leaves with the good will and blessing of the fans for sure - and Nicky Hammond called him 'our best ever signing'. £80,000 for four fantastic years, and then sold for £6.5m. It's good for the club and the man, but it's certainly a sad moment. He always seemed like a decent sort, but I couldn't care less if he does well or not (never liked Wolves!), sorry but that's football, we move on. Just don't be surprised if he ends up back at our place on loan in April!
