    Agree 100%. It doesn't make sense how much we've invested in this new squad full of talented footballers without an established, proven coach to guide us. I'm hoping we are proven wrong.

    Not being funny guys and this is genuine, but is Scannell all that? I know his name and know he’s been at Town for quite a few years, but other than that, I know little about him.

    A quick research suggests that he had 2 injuries last season (groin keeping him out for 3 games and then shoulder keeping him out for months). Prior to that he joined Burton where he got 1 assist in 19 appearances and finished the season coming off the bench for 5mins here, 6mins there.

    The season before that, in Town’s promotion season, he managed 1 assist in 19 games. He didn’t feature between December and early April (was he injured as I could find nothing to suggest he was) and then came back into the squad for the final few games.

    In the 15/16 season he scored once and created 4 in 19 games. In fact you have to got back to 14/15 for the last time he played more than 20 times. He managed 4 goals and 8 assists in that season (45 appearances).

    As I said, this is just data so feel free to add something that warrants the hype of him being a good signing (if it comes off). I’m not trying to be argumentative or anything; I’m generally interested as to whether his stats don’t back up his ability/worth to the team.

    This would be an impressive signing if it was to happen.

    If this does happen, does this mean that the club are now willing to spend higher amounts on wages than we have been expecting them to? There was a lot of talk about a low starting wage for players with a heavy emphasis on performance related bonuses. I wouldn’t expect Scannell to come to City for a low starting wage.

    I may be drifting off topic, but if the club are willing to pay Scannell a higher wage, maybe it is time to at least offer Wyke a higher contract if he hasn’t been offered one already?

    I guess that it was produced prior to him moving from the Doggies to the Dingles! ;)

    I doubt it, he's done well but nothing really to alert clubs. I'd suggest if he plays only as a winger and shows some progression he could be a January target for some

    He’s better than the w@nk we had last season - so it’s a ‘yes’ from me.

    With the benefit of hindsight we should never had sold Poleon.

    A family member is a Town ST holder. Says he is a decent championship winger and should be a great signing at our level.

    Age shouldn't be a problem if he has a brain, ask Bournmouth fans(the ones that have supported them for more than 10 years)

    Does he still have pace? He has had a few injuries but the fact we are talking to him sure shows intent

    Scannell mainly plays on the right wing though, where as Robinson plays on the left.

    Hope you're right but Boing Boing does have a point. Didn't we all get excited at the signing of Aaron McLean?

    I would be seriously impressed if they manage to pull this signing off. Just hope we can pull a good striker out of the bag should Wyke leave
