Most liked posts in thread: Summer 2023 Transfer Rumours

Jeeze if accurate even those owning football clubs jump on the keyboard bandwagon. That’s one way of endearing oneself to the fans. Silly man, true or not true, fodder for the Australian press.

 

If our best players are all fit then a strict 4-3-3 probably doesn't work. We'd shoe-horn Walker and Pattison into places they don't want to play really. If it was more of a 4-5-1 then it may work.

 

Loan wise at the club, the only lads I would keep are the latest likes of tulloch and Tompkinson who actually have something about them and show a element of quality rather than the others who will drift down the division's in their respective position, again unfortunately another rebuild is required with numerous players on lucrative contracts who have not performed at all for our club on ridiculous Long term contracts

 

PS: grant savoury - Queens Park
Scott Sinclair - Free Agent (Bristol rovers)
)
were two players we did make contact with and failed to agree terms along with Jordan ibe and Adam reach......the powers that be failed to sanction any other transfers despite the panic for numbers in the squad while sending out our own youngsters to leagues that are way and beyond their level

 

Savoury did his cruciate last year and missed almost a full season. Then another knee injury in Spring this year.

 

No idea?

 

What lucrative contracts, you mean the three year ones that are cheaper in the longer term than two year ones. You mean those lucrative contracts? A lot of clubs are doing it.

 

Yep, his agency represent East as well as Tomkinson in the current squad. They also represent Adam Clayton from last years squad.

 

Gosh, was Clayton last year? Feels like a few seasons by now...

 

And MH doesn’t he?

 

Adam Reach got a thigh injury on 22nd July which has ruled him out until the new year and he had a knee injury which made him miss the last 6 weeks of last season and it was linked to the injury he got in July.

 

Yes but is he fit

 

Is it too early for the Billy Sharp link? Might as well make it about 17 windows on the spin.....

Sharp has been released by LA Galaxy after 12 games, with 6 goals including a hat-trick in his short spell.

 

He’ll be heading back to the Blades!

 

That'll be the season ticket seller...

 

While we are shite..........you were way off the mark with your predictions. Its our crappy defense and keeper that is the problem.

Smith = 6
Walker = 4
Pattison = 3
Gilliead = 3
Odour = 2
Tulloch = 1

 

Why not? You never excluded them in your predictions? They are competitive matches and if we were to win the competition would we say 'well it doesn't count as a trophy'.

 

We have individuals that can score yes but can they do it with 2 k plus fans supporting them and against wily old pros like McGoldrick playing against them....

 

Agreed, goals against u19 and reserve teams are stretching it.

The league table doesn't lie and the goals for column is horrendous so up to press, I think you're right with the call.

Hopefully, that's about to change as I think GA will get us more on the front foot. Even if that means being more porous at the back.

 

We're 19th in League 2, shall we discount that because Cookie missed a few sitters and Lewis dropped a few clangers?
Can we pretend we're 5th again?

Our summer recruitment was cr@p again. Surely that's worth some points to us?
