    Or maybe it’s all B/S Park? Remember someone suggested he had been transferred already earlier this week?

    I’d try for him of course but I would not burn my boats on him as the big tent signing/ loan.

    Cover for Cookie will be harder and costlier to find seeing Oliver is out long term?

    We shall see, but honestly I cannot see him as a wing back and we won’t be playing 433 either?

    I think your making the mistake of thinking wing backs are set in stone. Hughes has made it clear he wants the option of playing different set ups to match the opposing sides. He has probably only played wing backs so far to familiarise the player with a new way of playing

    Or Wright. Maybe interest has come in for him from league 1.

    According to a Plymouth fan he has a thigh strain and is out for 10 days.

    If that’s the case then a right midfielder would be a good option

    He's a £200M player based on recent valuations, probably going to Gillingham or Wrexham

    You seem to be completely ignorant to the fact these clubs who are pushing the boat out, are probably playing catch-up up to us in terms of player budget - exceptions being Salford and Stockport. Wrexham are obviously dining at a different table to everyone else.

    We might fall a little down the order this season, but our playing budget has still increased and will still be around top 5. That is extremely competitive at our level and sufficient to be successful with. Having the top budget has done nothing for the likes of Salford. Keep that in mind.

    If he can't manage it, I'll have a crack at it. I fancy a go at something different....:)

    The most inappropriate use of the word “schooled” on any football forum,ever.

    Big budgets aren't a guarantee of success. Salford have spent big since day one and are still stuck in this league.
    Meanwhile clubs with very modest budgets like Stevenage and Morecambe both got promotion in the last few seasons.

    The player in question is Tyreik Wright on-loan.

    We went in for him 5-6 weeks ago and were told to wait nearer the end of pre-season. We’re approaching that time where they need to decide. They have just signed Morgan Whittaker, which could help our cause, but conversations have fallen quiet over the past week.

    Right now, from what I understand, it’s 50:50.

    That makes sense to me. I believe he was playing as a LWB there so that offers some attacking competition for Ridehlagh. He is also useful in a forward role.

    That solves 2 problems at half the price.

    Hmm.

    Revisiting Tyreik?

    I'm not crazy about that.

    Isn't there an equivalent winger still at a PL club we can look at who hasn't just gone to an L1 club and failed to impress?

    Think he was signed for cover at Plymouth based on what he did here I am sure he would be a perfect pick. Especially has he has been playing wing back

    Same here, lad couldn't wait to bugger off. I don't blame him for taking the opportunity but almost feels a bit dirty wanting him back, like taking back a cheating ex.
