He said it three weeks ago keep up

 

There can’t be a pipeline until the parent club decide whether the player identified will be released either permanently or on loan.

 

What a ridiculous post we have signed 6 players already go and have a look at the vast majority of clubs in league two and see how many they have signed and come back

 

Great point.
However it wouldn’t worry me too much. Our record of signing players from Scotland is, shall we say, chequered at best?

 

You're doing the normal bit of deflecting and redirecting the point.

It is simply about portraying confidence, professionalism and pro activity around what we do. Saying "We'll see what pops up" does the opposite. The number of signings (or resigning if you want to be pedantic in a couple of cases) has zero to do with what I was saying,

 

I mean granted it’s going back a year or two but we signed a lad from Clyde, scored the most important goal in the club’s history at Crystal Palace.

Slightly more recently Eoin Jess, Rory McArdle, Brian Mitchell all from Aberdeen, McCall second time round, we signed an ex Barcelona player from Hearts. Granted your Archie Christie era stuff was shit, and the likes of Andy Tod and Harris Vukic weren't that sharp either.

 

My Post was directed to @Bigrod who was talking about Stuart’s Scottish Connection

 

We have signed six players who were not under contract most of who had options elsewhere

 

Well the resigning of DMH, RO'D and Cooke are pretty standard.

The 3 signings are proactive - yes.

The communication isn't.

You're trying to push the communication together with the signings where I'm simply talking about 1 aspect of that.

 

its four park two are contract extensions

 

I actually rated Vuckic - under-utilised IMO.

14 app - 4 goals - 2 assists. He’s done alright at FC Twente since departing City, anorl.

 

It’s five actually because DMH was released and O’Donnell was free to talk to other clubs

 

Jimmy Crankie

 

Granted
Billy Clarke could have gone to Thackley

 

my thoughts exactly.

 

So you're agreeing with me .

I thought we got both Burke & Cullen whilst Phil Parkinson was the manager and many said all he played was hoof football, which is a ridiculous claim.

 

While im not disagreeing there are a few managers in our division who will be well respected and have a number of good contacts within the game. Harry Kewel, David Dunn, Michael Fylnn, Ian Holloway are a couple from the top of my head.
Stuart hasnt done anything really in management to bump him to the top of that list.
