    He'll cost a lot considering he has 18 months on his contract and another year option.

    Why does your post come across as so negative? "Thinking he is better than he is". His club accepted an offer. He got a good increase in pay and the chance to test himself at a higher level. Why look down on the lad?

    They did when their left wing back was injured but it didn't work out well and they felt it wasn't the right position. He's only started about 5 or 6 games for them the whole time he's been there.

    “I am looking to get double figures in goals between now and the end of the season and help the club climb back up the table."

    If he gets anywhere near that then he won't be anywhere near league 2 next season

    Play Wright on the left, Pointon on the right, Cook in the middle

    Get rid of Ridehalgh, Kelly, Osadebe, Tulloch, Derbyshire

    Get a quality LWB and CB in an this begins to look half decent

    I think it’s too late also. Need to win at least 11 out of remaining 19 to have a chance of top 7 and I just don’t think we can do that.

    Can only think Richards injury is more serious than at first thought.He failed a fitness test a month ago,so he must have been nearly fit then,but nothing heard about him since.

    I presume people who post drivel like that have never attempted to improve their lot in life.

    Isn’t Jake Young doing exactly the same. Why are we looking down on him?

    Good going forward, tracked back, a bit lost defensively .

    Interesting to see the fit in whatever the formation is ?

    So, if Wright is really a left sided winger then GA now likes wingers :unsure:

    I take it the current gaffer was the one pushing for this loan

    Agreed. Let's get back to 4231/433. It suits our current squad much better.

    So why take issue with someone for doing that then?

    Like others have said, hopefully this signing means a change of system.

    Wright is a winger. Not a striker, not a wingback. He had the best form of his career as a winger so let's play him there. No more square pegs in round holes.

    I think when he was here he played more a left of the front three scoring three goals.

    I would be surprised if Oliver left as I'm not sure who would be able to afford his wages and take a gamble with his fitness issues. If he did leave I would expect we would go for more of a Stockton type to replace him than Wright
