Tyrese Owen of Kingstonians is someone we're apparently keeping tabs on.

Never heard of him. But, unearthing a gem would be nice wouldn't it?

6' 5" right back currently playing as a centre mid. Looks like a cross between FDB and Kyle Hudlin when he's running with the ball and a lot of players bounce off him but it's tier 7 football. 

He had a trial at Derby last January that came to nothing and a mate at Huddersfield said he looked like a pub footballer that had won a trial when he was there before Christmas. He played midfield and was robbed too easily in possession and had trouble with the pace of the game. Got a shot on him though. 

His preferred position is right back but I've no idea how he'd be there. All his recent stats are from midfield. He's 23 though so we couldn't stick on an u21 contract to see if he works out. 

Huddersfield stuck Hudlin in their B team, on a B team contract, and sent him out on loan to Wimbledon. He's not having a great time there but it's cost Hudders almost jack all to find out

So we avoided a costly expense with Hudlin then as we don’t have the same possibility with the B team thing!

That's the beauty of B teams over u21s with overage players. The over 30s playing u21s, like Huddleston, are coaches with player registration retained. The u21s with 23-25 year olds playing tend to be on extended contracts, a bit like George Hirst would be if he wasn't on loan. 

B teams are run as a separate entity so with its own contract budget. Hudlin thought he'd signed for Huddersfield, not Huddersfield B.

Unless we're selling Windass and/or Bannan, or Bannan's fooked for the rest of the season then there's no point in adding Anderson to the squad. 

Is Moore going to drop Baz' to give him game time? Or will it be one of those loans where we stick an attacking central midfielder/deep lying 10 out wide and ask him to play wingback?

Morrison not been playing though - but sadly I can see McGuinness going back and getting little game time, reversing the strides he has taken the last few months

I noticed he’d not been playing but with them being a) shite and 3) losing a squad member it’s more plausible now if they do.

He’s no carbone, but I’d keep him, good lad around the place in a promotion push 

He’s definitely good around the place and seems to be great around the club/city too.

However… Realistically, if we can replace him, I’d let him go. He’s not going to play regularly enough for him, and he deserves a shot at regular footy.

Gutted about McGuinness, he's been fantastic for us in the time he's been here, if we're all to be totally honest, the lad is a far too good for this league, I'm stunned that Cardiff seem to think they've got better Center Backs then McGuinness tbh.

Wish him the best of luck for his future & I hope he's back at S6 in the Summer...

I don't like how their manager has made it public the clubs are talking, for all I slate Moore he doesn't have that cuntish side to him

A bit of a test of Wednesdays transfer planning. Given that it’s looking likely that McGuinness is heading back, and with a shortage of bodies at centre half, have we got replacements in the bag already, so can we react immediately and get the cover in?

Interesting that Ipswich and Plymouth are doing lots of early business. We don’t need much, striker, wing back, and as it stands now, two center halves.

The only "positive" in the McGuinness news is that its being flagged on the 6th Jan and not 6pm on the 31st Jan 

Disappointing but its the way of the world with loan players 

 

We always knew it was possible, even more so once they got hit with an embargo, the sad bit is even if we wanted to sign him they would be loathed to sell as they couldn't use any fee.

Jay Glover joins Gainsborough Trinity on loan for 3 months.

Speaking of Trinity…. Ex Owl, Liam Waldock is flying for them, scored 14 goals so far this season. 

Said at the time he joined them that Waldock was too good for that level. 

But he went where was wanted and felt comfortable. Maybe his current form gets him an upward move, if he wants it.
