Matty Foulds to Harrogate on loan (with Poll)

That begs a philosophical question... If a cross finds Gilliead unmarked in the box, was it succesful?

 

Great point about what constitutes a good cross. How many times do you see a cross put over and you think that's begging for a striker to put it away. Same with corners. What is a good corner? A good one just because someone gets their head on one and scores?

 

Don't be silly. When it comes to getting near a cross he's a vampire.

 

Stop crosses at source …right?

 

Great post. Perhaps for Foulds the reasons for the longer contract is he is in the clubs plans, but at the start of this season likely as back up to Ridealgh. Probably played more games than expected let’s be fair and with this move it keeps him at relevant standard, so chance to develop into the player we want for longer term.

As for how it leaves us, well on paper Bola is what we need. We have just less than half the season to seriously step up on recent performances and need to become a much more offensive team. We miss pace and ability to pressure the opposition on the back foot in long periods of the game - something I don’t think is in Foulds locker just now.

So for me, it’s a wise move from the club and as @JonButterfield rightly mentioned, a sign of a forward thinking club rather than tinpot.

 

don't disagree....but you can't stop them all so some you need to defend

 

By definition all rumours are fictional.

 

Agreed of course.

 

So Hendrie back in on Saturday

 

Well he has played left back before so if this new guy is crap then who knows

 

I shud co/co

 

I will probably get shot down for this but maybe MH is thinking he could cover both FB spots

 

Cook off

 

like in the Masterchef finals

 

Maybe not as much ££ assistance for MH as you think, balancing the books in this window

 

Would be sensible as he can cover both if desperate, would make sense to just have one FB on the bench over two.

 

In the squad at least. Just trying to think - have we ever had a FB on the bench? I'm thinking maybe Hendrie early doors

 

What makes you think either would want to return to the club
Foulds in particular he has been shipped out to make way for a player who has played less games in his career than Foulds has in a season and didn't look at all happy
Would be very surprised if you see either of them in a city shirt again

 

He doesn't need any more money. If he hasn't spent what he's been given by now wisely then it's his fault!

 

Now now don't be getting @Fordy117 all excited. Those midgets better watch out tonight-they won't know what has hit them.
