A signing imminent ??

[Magic magpie]

So Alan Hardy on Twitter had a conversation with someone after they suggested he had spoken to the chairman’s targets. Alan Hardy said “the fans will know first” and frank Lampard was mentioned do you think a new signing is on the way or Hardy having a bit of banter.?

I saw that someone accused him of pretending to be Lampards best friend by calling him Frank, he replied that he’d call him Mr Lampard when he had dinner with him later, not sure whether it was a joke or not.

You'd assume it was about Bennett but theres talk of a winger from Derby aswell

yeah with all the tweets directed to mason bennett from ah, i think it would be him. so im with @ohstanleyaborah oh this one.

the account that kept tweeting ah about it and has something about kitman just seems to know nothing. just look at half the crap he comes out with! i hope mason bennett does come back on loan.

I spoke about this with @Magic magpie a few days ago.

There was a rumour going round that Mason Bennett wanted to stay at Derby and that Frank Lampard has plans for him, however a source close to me says this isn't true and that it's possible that Bennett may get transfer listed. If Alan Hardy can pull off a deal to a deal to get him back on loan, with the mindset that we may sign him in the summer after - I think this would be a great move.

We'll have to wait and see.

Mate like I said that would be one of the two I wanted back .. let’s hope it is hi the team will look stronger and better

Well Bennett wouldn't be forced to start so much, so the risk of injury can be managed but what we would get is a striker with a lot of pace and someone who offers the squad something different.

Stead will be on the bench to impact games also.

Alan Hardy might just be trying to rub his shoulders alongside an ex England international, fancy joining my golf club Mr Lampard? 

Mason Bennett would be a good addition though.

[TheSkipper]

I would also assume that if its regarding potential signings that it would be Mason Bennett.

The two seem to have a solid friendship and if the rumours are true about Mansfield enquiring about Bennett, well it would make more sense to let him come here.

[theMagpies]

The meeting with Frank Lampard could be anything and unrelated to Derby County, it may have something to do with Chelsea or even Man City.

I don't want to jump the gun here.

We will have to wait and see what happens.

I'm not going to speculate on this, I will wait for the club to announce it first.

[ScottyP]

I just want to see a few more players sign on the dotted line, Mason Bennett or anyone else. I do think the next few arrivals will be from the loan window but time will tell.

[TM1993]

I think Alan Hardy did say the other night the a new signing is due, he didn't give a time or day though. I am hoping we sign another defender, just to give that area a bit more shape.

[upthepies]

It makes you wonder.

Normally I would say there might not be anything in this, but with it being Frank Lampard and now he manages Derby County. It makes you think that there could be more to it, we played Forest the year we got some of their players on loan in a friendly correct? Who knows, you have to speculate to accumulate.

[lambleypie]

Defence could do with one or two new players just to improve things.

I'll believe it when I see it on Football League Zone or FL Transfer News on Twitter
