Sadler: Interesting Gary Ablett?

Another rumour from Sky Sports, this time regarding a potential replacement for left back Michael Rose who looks to be on the verge of a move to League One table toppers Norwich City.

The article says Gary Ablett wants to bring in Watford full back Mat Sadler to replace Rose. Sadler, who began his career at Birmingham City has endured a torrid time at Vicarage Road since his move there in 2008, and hasn’t played a first team game for the Hornets in over a year.

Ablett might also be forced to bring in another defender if right back Johnny Mullins also leaves Edgeley Park. The former Mansfield man has been linked with a move to Doncaster and Plymouth.

Rose: Heading for exit door?

Stockport County left back Michael Rose continues to be linked with a move to top of the table Norwich City.

Rumours the former Yeovil man was on his way out of Edgeley Park were mentioned at Tuesday night’s 1-1 draw with Brighton at Edgeley Park, and they continue to persist, with the rumour being posted on football-rumours.co.uk.

The site says a ‘nominal fee’ has been agreed for the 26-year-old, with Canaries forward Jamie Cureton heading to Edgeley Park on loan as part of the deal.

Update: Norwich site carrowroad.net is also carrying the story, adding that they believe Rose has been having a medical today ahead of the move, although the article also mentions that Jamie Cureton is close to signing for Gillingham.

Rose was on the verge of a move to Hartlepool United in the summer but changed his mind at the last minute and decided to remain with County.

Whether the rumour is true or not remains to be seen, but be sure to check County Blog regularly throughout the remaining few days of the transfer window for the latest gossip and transfer updates.
