    Interesting. Karl Henry would be good at this level and with the injuries in midfield it’d be very timely.

    Yeah, it’ll take a few games to get up to speed, perhaps. But with the injuries hitting hard we probably need more help.

    I think a good percentage of free agents will not have trained with intensity..

    Free agents. We really have reached the bottom of the barrel.
    This club has desperation written all over it. The Rahic (who has been a complete an utter failure) experiment continues.

    Ignore this thread guys, the original poster has no credibility or inside knowledge.

    Yes. Remember the summer claims and he was found out big time.

    If we are to continue playing 3 centre backs we could do with another centre back as cover.

    Well the top and bottom of it, we are in no position to knock players back due to age, have come and train, and see how they do, and if they offer more than what we have offer a temporary deal?

    Whether you agree or like @south york bantams@south york bantams post apparently it is true that we may have one or two free agents training with us at some point this week. Doesn't mean we will sign them and I don't know if any player is Karl Henry though.

    So outside of the transfer window, who exactly would you expect to us to sign?

    A half fit, 35 year old Karl Henry would still be an upgrade on Josh Shite.

    I will explain. This is a fan who is angry and upset at the club. He doesn’t have to come up with a solution, he is a fan expressing his discontentment at our demise.

    No you are wrong. As a fan you must come up with a solution even though we have paid ‘professionals’ apparently employed to come up with these solutions. How dare you come on a forum and express your discontent without coming up with a short term solution and a long term strategy. Shame on you....

    Bollocks. He saying we’re scraping the barrell with free signings now, but I wonder if he thought Scannell or O’Donnell are poor signings? (Just picking out 2)

    Also, they seemingly overlook that in this division it’s mainly about wages paid rather than transfer fees paid (ie opposite to what we did last season). But I guess some people just don’t get how football works.

    How about Kenny Miller if not playing coaching strikers ?

    I don't. Should all have been done by the time the window had closed. I'm not against bringing in a free agent or two if injuries/suspensions are such that the squad is down to the bare bones. This is more a reflection of poor recruitment during the summer, simple as.
