Re: Aaron Drinan
A fee wow, great business by the club there for a player who's out of contract soon and been injured much of the season. Well played Mr Ling, well played

Everyone's assuming it was them paying us...The Reverend wrote: ↑Thu Feb 01, 2024 10:33 pm If I’d paid even a penny for Drinan I’d want it to be undisclosed as well

Re: Aaron Drinan
I’m assuming it’s the case because Moncur is still here and someone needs to pay for his Jaffa Cake habit whilst he’s still around getting splinters in his backside.Proposition Joe wrote: ↑Thu Feb 01, 2024 10:38 pmEveryone's assuming it was them paying us...The Reverend wrote: ↑Thu Feb 01, 2024 10:33 pm If I’d paid even a penny for Drinan I’d want it to be undisclosed as well

Re: Aaron Drinan
Feel a bit mean now. Agree he was an absolute grafter, just not at the level we need now. Hope he does well at Swindon.

Re: Aaron Drinan
First season Drinan was the exact sort of player you need in league 2. Strong, quick, versatile, hardworking and capable of scoring a decent number of goals as a supporting forward. Last season he never got into any sort of rhythm because of injuries and wound up looking terrible. Obviously this season he's barely featured.
One of those where he's worth a punt in the right set up at a lower level on the chance he comes good again. Will give his all and maybe rediscover fitness and confidence.

Re: Aaron Drinan
It wouldn't surprise me - providing he doesn't have another long injury lay off - if he does well at Swindon.

If he can stay fit he’ll do ok for them.Proposition Joe wrote: ↑Thu Feb 01, 2024 10:41 pmFeel a bit mean now. Agree he was an absolute grafter, just not at the level we need now. Hope he does well at Swindon.
It’s just a question of whether he can stay fit or not.

Re: Aaron Drinan
Swindon are not allowed to pay or promise any transfer fees, loans fees etc
From bbc report
‘The club is prohibited from paying or committing to pay any transfer fee, compensation fee or loan fee during the current window.’

Re: Aaron Drinan
Honestly, even if Lingy got a bag of training balls from Swindon, this is the best deal he’s ever done for us.

Somehow we’ve managed to move a striker who can’t hit a barn door anymore, has scored about 3 goals in two years and can’t run for the bus without pulling a hamstring

Re: Aaron Drinan
Be interesting to see if he can score goals at league 2 level, for a different team. I doubt he will because he lacks any quality, but no way do we get a fee.
As others have said, Swindon are under an embargo, they are not allowed to pay any fees during this transfer window
