Blimey, how many is that now?
Unsure about CMS, looking forward to being proved wrong though! Would be happy with Mee, in talks for a loan/perm?
Hope I'm proved wrong as well, if it wasn't a SGE purchase I would be concerned so for now CMS will have my full support and I look forward to saying I knew he would get us 20+ goals this season.
PeterboroughFox and ThorneyFox can both vouch-safe for CMS's brilliance!
The mee rumour is by a guy on twitter who seems to know every transfer a couple weeks before it happens. He's also more often than not right. It seemed to be permanent as he was saying that a fee was close to being agreed.
Since we're expecting 12 signings, We're not even half way there yet!
and please, no bon jovi jokes after my comment for the love of god!
We've got to hoooooolldddd on, to what we've got
Would be pleased with the player himself but maybe £3 million is a bit over the top. However, I suppose the fee is subjective to his performance. If he scores 20-25 goals that fire us to promotion then I'm sure we'll be saying what a bargain at £3 million.
If he gets us promoted £3M will seem like peanuts to the money the club will earn in the Prem!
...It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not...
Wait...
Have to say I'm also in the "hope I'm wrong" camp.
What makes CMS a better prospect than say Fryatt? Both delivered in Div 1 but have average pedigree at the next level. Sven shows complete faith in one (to the tune of £3m if the speculation is believed) but a lack of faith and a relatively paltry transfer fee for the other. There's no logic in this game.
Also ( much as I can't stand the bloke) D.J has been linked to QPR for £1.25m , having scored 13 in the Premiership.
They must see us coming !
"..It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not..."

I disagree I think it will be a: "shot through the heart" if we don't make it now
I'm not at all keen on CMS, and I'm not sure many are. I think he'd do a decent job in a wider position of a front 3, cause he's quick and tricky, but as the main man in a front 3....not keen.
As others have said, I'll support him, and hope to be proved wrong.
Speaking of DJ - he's off to Rangers.
BBC are reporting it now as well, so it aint just Stringer:
Craig Mackail-Smith 'expected to join' Leicester City
Page last updated at 12:01 GMT, Friday, 1 July 2011 13:01 UK
Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony is confident striker Craig Mackail-Smith will join Leicester City, possibly before the weekend.
The 27-year-old will meet Foxes boss Sven-Goran Eriksson on Friday after the clubs agreed a fee earlier in the week.
MacAnthony said West Ham are still interested in the forward but told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire: "I would expect him to sign for Leicester on Friday."
