January 2021 Transfer Window

May aswell Chuck dmh in for good measure!

 

The one who Mark Bridge Wilkinson spent 90 mins having to point and tell him where he had to run to.

 

To be fair for all the good loans parky brought in, there were about 5 awful ones that barely got any game time.

 

We paid a fee for Guthrie. What's your point?

 

Someone better than a player that was here before and not good enough

 

Which "all" - if there were more than 5 in that season he won that player of the season award, I'll be amazed. He only started about 20/25 games that season and mostly after we turned down that bid from Darlington or Hartlepool or whoever it was.

 

His sister used to sit in front of me and she would normally spend about 80 minutes of each game jumping up and reacting to each bit of abuse that rained down on him.

 

I'd expect nothing else from a family member, can't be easy listing to some of the stuff football fans come out with.

 

Hes far better than our forward options now we’re a league 2 side now so who are you expecting us to attract?

 

We were a league one side then he has had some good experience since he would be a good signing

 

He’s a winger isn’t he? So not signing him as a forward are we? Surely? If so it’s worse than I thought.
His career has gone nothing but downwards since he was at us on loan and he just wasn’t very good even then. He was younger and we were in league one but for me he offered nothing going forward.

Just don’t get the hype with he’s better than what we’ve got. He’s got nothing to compare him to being up against DMH.

He’s just not very good and that’s my opinion. I don’t need to find alternative targets. That’s not my job but if he’s our first signing it smacks of getting the old phone book out again

 

No it means Turnbull is doing his homework on the Scunthorpe site they give match ratings every match and Gillead is always a top performer. Whilst I didn’t think he was perfect when he was here he was decent especially his first time. At this level he is a decent Winger. I think it’s hypothetical anyway because I don’t think he will be released

 

The Gilliead rumour has all the hallmarks of a traditional City rumour made up by unimaginative fans.

Link to someone at the club? Check.
Former player? Hugely important check.
Wasn't particularly good before? Check.
Takes the minimal amount of effort to identify for these and other reasons? Check.

I have a feeling this could be fake news

 

Transfer window open for 15 minutes and we haven’t unveiled anybody yet.
Typical City

 

Resign Mr Turnbull

 

More to do with the fact it was mentioned the other day that Turnbull had been watching Scunthorpe

 

It's an absolute joke. Sparks said it was the number one priority yet here we are, nearly an hour into 2021 and still no sign of any new players.

 

Hes far better than our forward options now we’re a league 2 side now so who are you expecting us to attract?

joke would be funny if window opened today and not on jan 2nd

 

It came from an EFL transfer news twitter page. It wasnt a City fan.

 

You can sign players at any time they're just not registered till the 2nd. Harry Chapman signed for Shrewsbury on the 29th December and is available to play tomorrow, it's easily done.
