Otto_Man Posted January 27, 2023 Posted January 27, 2023 Loan or permo Walks? If it's the latter I'd rather we offered for McGuinness instead Quote

That does surprise me, not that he’s not quite made the grade but that the manager doesn’t rate him. Thought he spoke highly of him in the past. I thought he was great last season when we had him. Not too dissimilar to McGuinness in terms of consistency when with us. Different type of player but I remember him fondly. Always looked calm and positionally sound. I’d be happy with McGuinness and Storey in the squad if we went up. Quote
HoylandOwl Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 If we got Storey back, to not only supplement what we have but improve it. I will be very very happy Quote

Unless we get a good, versatile utility player in beforehand, who tries just as hard as Pato does, we must not let him go before the end of the season. Just 'cos some folks don't like his style, (which I understand), we should not risk promotion by giving up any of our most versatile players, like him, Palmer, Johnson or (the sadly injured) James. These players are the glue in the mix, vital when other players are out. Remember that old adage? "All because of a nail." 2 Quote
HoylandOwl Posted January 29, 2023 Posted January 29, 2023 The last month Pato has shown his best side. Played very well, and it would be a shame to not let him play a part in what looks like a promotion at this point. His effort is infectious. While it’s something that should expected from every player, it’s not always the case. 2 Quote
TheExile Posted January 30, 2023 Posted January 30, 2023 Paterson looks to be playing for his future be it here or elsewhere. Suspect we only let him go if we get another cf in Quote
HoylandOwl Posted January 30, 2023 Posted January 30, 2023 According to this, we’re one of two clubs after QPR youngster, Sinclair Armstrong. Quote
Tylluan Posted January 30, 2023 Posted January 30, 2023 Armstrong has a massive amount of pace but he burns out quickly. There's been times when he's come on at 65-70 mins and looked like he'd done a full shift by the end of the game. Quote
HoylandOwl Posted January 30, 2023 Posted January 30, 2023 It might be off the cards now with Lyndon Dykes being injured Quote
HoylandOwl Posted January 30, 2023 Posted January 30, 2023 Talk now that we won't let Pato go this month, and he'll sign a pre contract agreement with Hearts to join them for nowt in the summer. 2 Quote

JACK THE HAT Posted January 30, 2023 Posted January 30, 2023 I like pato. We do need him for the run in. He’s a better finisher than people give him credit for and a good all rounder. Quote
TheExile Posted January 30, 2023 Posted January 30, 2023 Few rumours on Twitter about Tshimanga being a potential target. Seems unlikely but he did nearly get a championship move in the summer Quote
HoylandOwl Posted January 30, 2023 Posted January 30, 2023 Centre back, Stephen Welsh of Celtic is someone we’re interested in apparently on loan. Quote

Failed a medical at Hull at the beginning of July. Signed for Chesterfield, instead of a league club, because there's no percentage salary cap in the National league. If we're sniffing around that low down then I'd rather we took Langstaff or Rodrigues from Notts County Quote

I guess he’d be relatively cheap with a release clause/contract expiry scenario whereas the Notts C lads would be a more expensive gamble Quote

Mark Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Got a feeling might be bit of ins and outs today. Can't see a Premier club being after Windass, he will go if that's case and you couldn't blame him. Gregory is an interesting one. I like him but for whatever reason it's not really happening for him this season. Quote

Tylluan Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 There's an unsubstantiated rumour going round some Toytown fans groups that Stewart has 'done a Chansiri' and 'sold' the stadium to an offshoot of ASD in order to fund the recent transfer spending. They're trying to tie it into another rumour that the club is going up for sale Quote
