Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
yep seen the rumours
Frank Neary
Stan Charlton
Vic Groves
We are also after a centre back who can also play left back and right back, and dont mind selling programmes at half time

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
We're not adding anyone new to the squad. We'll replace Ruel if he goes and we're replacing Marvin. The rest will be loans that won't get a look in.

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
Alabi = Johnson
Ekpiteta = tbc
Janata = not required
Who else did we release?

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
And Gorman = Cisse. Or rather Gorman < Cisse would be more accurate
Think they've said about a forward in addition to a defender, though can't remember if that was only if Sotiriou didn't sign (it must be though, or we'd have too many up front). Not having Wilkinson as a winger at all.

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
I think the forward is Ruel or A N Other but time will tell. I feel that even if we had Ruel, we would still need a big guy alongside him. Not sure Angol or Wilkinson is that guy.

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
Gorman and Alabi were on loan last season, so not part of the squad. Janata will just get replaced with another kid from the youth set up.

Upfront is a conundrum as the only one who seems to be willing to run around chasing the ball and agree with you a striker without much pace playing wide just seems bizarre

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
I’m surprised we haven’t been linked with the entire Dagenham and Redbridge squad...

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
Watford reserves have a striker who's a bit of a unit who could be available on loan. Dalby's the name. Sam Dalby.

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
Leicester have also released 6'3 centre forward Ryan Loft, used to be at Spurs and has spent a couple of seasons out on loan at Carlisle and Exeter. He's a bit crap but he could offer something a bit different.

Loft would say all the right things but ultimately be a bit toothless when you need him.Eat The Rich wrote: ↑Tue Aug 04, 2020 4:58 pm Leicester have also released 6'3 centre forward Ryan Loft, used to be at Spurs and has spent a couple of seasons out on loan at Carlisle and Exeter.

Comparing him to Harrold is a bit like comparing Josh Koroma to Messi. They're of a type but one isn't fit to lace the other's boots. When Messi has scored a worldie on a wet wednesday in Halifax then and only then can he class himself in Josh's league.

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
I thought Ross said that Jobi McAnuff extending his contract was “ like a new signing”?

Re: Signing rumour on Twitter
Did Dalby put on 5 stone, or is a 'unit' now a skinny kid that weighs 8 stone?

He's never going to be Akinfenwa but he's filled out. He's got to be at least 6'4 and 14 odd stone.Apple Wumble wrote: ↑Wed Aug 05, 2020 3:55 pm Did Dalby put on 5 stone, or is a 'unit' now a skinny kid that weighs 8 stone?
