    I'd be disappointed if he's the left winger we bring in.

    He said we’ve identified targets now we need what ever players he’s waiting on leaving to go ASAP

    He doesn't ring any bells with me, is he pap?

    Genuinely don't know who he is, probably due to his ultra common name.

    Well Bowyer has signed him twice and knows all about him so he must think he can do a job

    I thought he was more of a central midfield player?. Sounds like Bowyer trusts him character wise, vastly experienced at a higher level, could be a very useful addition to the squad

    He looked very ordinary v Briggus.
    Strange running style and a carbon copy of Josh Wright IMO.

    He's always been crap when I've seen him, legs have gone too. He may be a good character but absolutely not what we need on the wing imo.

    But is the absolute polar opposite to everything he said he wants in a winger.

    Well if he's a central player now then it should be an absolute no. We're already overloaded with shite in that position and need a proper defensive midfielder.

    Well the fact he signed him twice says otherwise

    I agree,but he must have some doubts about whether he’s still the player he was when he previously signed him ,otherwise he wouldn’t be on trial. We had a few wingers playing against Brighouse, and by all accounts he wasn’t the best out of them so it’s not as cut and dry as some seem to think.

    It was also mentioned in the YP that we'll need to move players on before bringing anymore in.

    The only ones I'm really bothered about are Riley and Akpan. I hope we get rid of these 2 asap.

    Riley and Doyle no point paying Doyle’s wages to sit on the bench

    And the way he talked it sounded possible that there may be some outgoings. He didn't want to overplay things though.

    Interesting comment I thought was when he said that he doesn't feel the market has got going yet despite though we've managed to get a good number in.

    He's right. We've had the first phase when organised managers quietly go about the business of signing new players, and now we are moving onto the next stage where the slightly less organised start to think 'oh crikey, the new season starts in less than a month, I'd better get my skates on'. This will be followed by the 'panic stations' period when Adam Chicksen finally gets himself a new club.

    Yep, heard he's got his eye on a nice new pitching wedge.
