    If he is their best player it's definitely no coincidence they are struggling at the wrong end of league 2.

    Diamond has been getting in the first team squad and making the odd appearance this year for Sunderland so suspect he might be a no go for now - unless they themselves make wholesale changes under the new regime

    I can't remember if it was on here but somewhere I saw the rumour we'd actually made an agreement in theory with Sunderland to bring him in but both teams have changed manager since then so it was now up in the air. Obviously, bearing in mind I can't even remember where I read that I'd recommend a healthy pinch of salt with that one

    Parker reporting this morning that the transfer window is now open. Have a word with him Fordy, he clearly doesn't know what he's talking about.

    Haha, fair enough! Would be a player I’d be happy with - would be a step up on the creative players we’ve got right now (if we have any at all that is)

    I mentioned it on another post a few days ago. Back in early to mid-November City made an enquiry, that’s all it was. Harrogate were also putting their name in the hat.

    Who knows it may still be an option. Sunderland are likely to be very active in the transfer window so I imagine as they bring players in they may allow a couple of the younger ones out.

    I half remembered it, then embellished the rest! That's proper rumour-mongering if you ask me

    Scored a quality goal against us, was it last season or the season before? kop end, cut in from the right and a curling left footer, good player that lad.

    Im not totally against Gilliead signing IF the rumour has any truth.


    1- I thought he held his own in L1. Wasnt flash, wasnt awful.
    2 - Improves on any of the wide men we currently have.
    3 - 6 goals for a struggling L2 side last term. Added the odd goal to his game in last 3 years.

    Ideal signing? No. Do I want better? Yes. Not totally against it though. I will give Turnbull the benefit of the doubt on that one. He was only a kid when last here - now he is a man.

    Football is a simple game over complicated by people who should know better.

    I'd hope to see a signing in the mould of Kyle Reid and Mark Marshall. Pace and power that gives us width.

    I can't recommend anyone but that's the type of player I hope we're looking for.

    He's 6'4 on his Northampton stats page. A few stats sites have him at 170CM so about 5'6-5'7 off top of my head, about right.
