Tony Grant
 
According to one of the Crewe Alexandra sites, we've signed their midfielder Tony Grant (ex Man City and Burnley and a proud member of Uglyfootballers.com. It may or may not be true - but he WAS born in Liverpool!:)

The Man City and Burnley supporter who sit in the next office are both giving me bad vibes about him. Anybody know anything about him?

Only had 2 games for Crewe this season I beleive. If you get him to do some work it will be an excellent signing for you. Pleanty of experience and plays the ball around well. Twilight of his career but could be useful

By the way he's nicknamed Rodney for obvious reasons :D

Does that mean he needs a kick up the derriere every now and again?

He has a very laid back approach which can be misleading and make him look as they he isn't trying. You have to decide which is the real Tony Grant. :)

There are still some Burnley fans who think he could do a job for us.

I am very excited about our new signings although the keeper is young bolton did let ian walker go so big sam must believe in him. Mauro started at porto so he must have something about him he was probably there same time as mourinho. And tony grant is the type of player i feel we need some one who will keep the ball for us and take the pressure off the defence. hopefully he will have the same impact that marshy and cookey had. Coley should be commended for some shrewd business. Couple this with the imminent return of cav and its like havin 4 new players 5 if u include boco. Just hope we get a striker now and i think we will soon start moving clear

Let's not get too excited, although Crewe's website says he's been released by mutual consent and he's set to sign for us, there's nothing on the fishy site yet. but if he's gonna sign he'd best hurry up - only a few hours left to the deadline.

Re: Tony Grant
 
It's on teletext now that Grant is on his way to us - seems Crewe can't wait to get shut :)

Yep - 18 month contract, hopefully with his experience he can help steady the midfield.
