Bristol City boss Derek McInnes has categorically denied rumours linking the Robins with AFC Bournemough striker Lewis Grabban.

And he has also rubbished suggestions that midfielder Martyn Woolford has handed in a written transfer request after being left out of the team in recent weeks.

Responding to internet forum talk linking him with a possible move for Cherries forward Grabban when the trabsfer window re-opens on January 2, McInnes told The Post: "There is simply no truth in this story. I don't know where it has come from."

He also denied that Woolford, whose form has dipped following a superb start to the campaign, is unhappy at Ashton Gate.

    “as the penguin one said..... fish fish fish

    boring boring boring


    isn;t there a proper forum where you two can go and bore each other to death??

    or maybe a legal society because you both seem to be aspiring lawyers?

    or maybe a children's school, as you are both childish nitpickers.

    Or even better still arrange to meet at Greville Smyth by Trashton at 8am, and wrestle naked like Women In Love. that would sort you two out.”

    “@ piledriver

    i actually agree with you re the fryers / fergie issue

    but the APPROACH aspect - as my previous post referred to as well - was in relation to bolasie

    understood if you didn't quite make the 'link'.”

    “by marmeliser;

    You're confusing mis-understanding with disagreement.

    The point I'm making is that Ferguson is no one to talk and is displaying hypocracy.He has made suggestions to The Premier League that will probably get ignored as they're interested in rules not nuances or principles & UEFA are probably the overall ruling body give the club he's moved from.”

    “@ piledriver

    i really enjoyed my 2 hours of 'borgen'. now there's good old drama

    not at all dissimilar, you obviously don't get any nuance or principle of the thing - as my old dad would put it - in things

    i was talking about APPROACH (to business).

    go hover over the 'red' rating NOW! lol”

    “@marmeliser:

    Totally different from the Bolasie situation.City's negotiations got them a decent deal on a player who cost virtually nothing and who, MORE IMPORTANTLY, wanted to live in London and not play for Bristol City.

    This "outrage" from a bloke who intercepted Dimitar Berbatov at Manchester Airport when he was on his way to meet Mark Hughes! We'll see how far he gets with that particular appeal.I'm not saying that he hasn't got a point, but football is littered with this type of thing and I would wager that all they finish up with the 5% that Tottm have quoted.”

    “@ piledriver

    just to get you back on factual matters, rather your usual array of blather

    have a look at the story all over the media about ZAKI FRYERS and have a look at how alex ferguson suggests man utd go about seeing what case they have about alleged 'malpractice'.

    then transfer to the bolasie situation, as discussed on here, and see how my perspective chimes in with how a football club with both success and a healthy sense of right and wrong, and how to deal with the perceived latter, goes about their business

    Q.E.D”

    Room? Supporting the same club in the same City is an issue!
    @marmeliser:
    by george, you don't do NUANCE do you? no sense of humour or irony either
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PD:No light touch,hint or irony in anything you've written.Humour? When was that?
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    with you it's like how i've heard it described to argue with someone with strong fundamentalist views - it's like trying to hold an eel on an ice rink
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PD:It's more akin to you having an argument with someone with knowledge & common sense that he can apply to your detriment.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    told 'in confidence' is a 'leak'. how else do you describe it? common knowledge?
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PD:I'll explain:It means, I'll tell you but please don't pass this on or quote me.It's completly opposite to a leak whther that leak is official or unofficial.Hence I don't quote the source or quote specific financial figures.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    a 'troll' or 'stalker' is a VERY insulting term to describe anyone WRONGLY, as you did. people have lost their lives over it. you bandy terms around with no idea of their consequences.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PD:Any reasonable person with a mode*** of intelligence would, I am sure, not read it that way in it's written context.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    i also think the comment you made about 'trade unions' probably betray something of your mind-set, and probably explains that when it comes to 'conflict resolution' - see nuance comment above - that you have NO inter-personal skills, no 'soft skills' and no idea about dealing with people
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PD:No-Once again that's the context that you, as someone that's well balanced, in the sense that you have a chip on both shoulders plus an inferiority complex, have chosen to take it.You know nothing about me and your supposition is laughably wrong.........a bit sad as well, TBH.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    if you, as you always maintain, have any kind of knowledge about what goes on at AG, then i think that explains why the club is where it is at the moment. pontificate away all you want on here. i got bored once i realised what an empty suit you are"
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PD:For a bloke that's bored, you don't half keep on and once again, more insults.Very childish & unecessary.You've completly lost the Bolasie argument and have nothing else to contribute apart from "I'd have tried harder" to a better solution.

    “@Marmeliser:

    for someone who's default positions are dissembling, running to 'the editor' - who i think will see who's maintained some decorum in all this - or outright abuse - e.g accusing me of being a 'troll' or 'stalker' ( 3rd jan 12.36am ), i'd suggest whoever at AG leaks you information should watch out for their job or position.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PD: Ah, no more on Bolasie then?

    What was the bombshell on Carle?

    Finally seen sense?

    Good.

    There are no "leaks" as I have told you.

    The Editor I referred to is YOU for editing my comment and then trying to present it out of context to support an argument that doesn't exist and that you couldn't even begin to explain when asked.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    i'd also suggest you change your theme tume away from stevie wonder's 'misstra know-it-all'"
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PD:What was that you were saying about abuse?

    People in glass houses and all that.
