GersDude90 1 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Former Portsmouth goalkeeper David James is set to snub the advances of Champions League sides Celtic and Chelsea to move to Bristol City, according to the Scottish Sun.James, 39, is available on a free transfer after the south coast outfit failed to offer him a fresh contract due to its dire financial situation. Celtic were believed to be keen on adding his experience to their set-up, while Chelsea were keen on bringing in top class cover for injured shot-stopper Petr Cech.The pair are believed to be set to be beaten to the World Cup goalkeeper's signature after he began negotiations with the ambitious Championship outfit. New manager Steve Coppell is understood to see him as a pivotal signing to see his charges win promotion to the Premier League and he could ink a 12-month deal.My linkPlenty of talk going on about this. Seen it on SSN so thought I'd have a look about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 2,060 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Apparently David James will receive £140,000 from Portsmouth if he does not sign for a club before Saturday. Something to do with his contract Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something to do with his contract How on gods earth could Portsmouth afford that kinda cash in their current plight?And I don't see the reason behind this supposed clause, who does it benefit Barr the player himself?

*Manticore* 1,893 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I hardly follow transfer rumours, but did anybody (apart from timbo) seriously think James was going to join them? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goianegra 4,686 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 It's went through. Great signing for a mid-table Championship club, even if he is 40 next month. One player I'm actually glad they didn't get. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 2,060 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 This is karma coming back to bite celtc on the ass.They distance themselves from being British and burn a St George's cross at a pre-season game. Why would any Englishman want to move his family to play for a club like that when they see incidents like this happening? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
