Re: New signing Dom Ball
He’s not a loan, signed till the end of the season or the end of his season when he joins the other sicknotes

Re: New signing Dom Ball
He had a nasty injury 2 years ago, any other evidence of him being a "sicknote"?Monkey Boy wrote: ↑Tue Sep 10, 2024 8:56 pmHe’s not a loan, signed till the end of the season or the end of his season when he joins the other sicknotes

Re: New signing Dom Ball
Soccerbase doesn’t make pretty reading. He’s had 2 full(ish) seasons at QPR, other than that he’s never played regular football.

Re: New signing Dom Ball
Isn’t that why we have got him. If he had played more he would have gone to a much bigger club like, oh I don’t know, Bristol Rovers.

Re: New signing Dom Ball
Agree. When I first heard about this signing I thought, 'good, this must be a striker coming in'.Monkey Boy wrote: ↑Tue Sep 10, 2024 6:21 pm Why ???? We have midfielders coming out our ear holes has Warrington fallen out with Wellens? We need a permanent keeper and decent striker and who does Ling sign another injury prone midfielder. It’s run by nutters

Re: New signing Dom Ball
Wellens specifically talked about wanting a more experienced midfielder coming in so guess that is fulfilling that need. Clearly doesn't think Warrington is ready for first team football so it makes sense if that's seen as the issue, but agree doesn't address our biggest weakness.

Re: New signing Dom Ball
People moaning we haven’t got an experience and our midfield is losing battles then moan when we bring in an experienced midfielder.
Who, by the way, plays primarily in a position where we don’t have anyone. Not that most fans seem to understand that

Re: New signing Dom Ball
A lot of comments on Twitter, saying good player, versatile etc, where does he actually play or hils role? Seems does a bit of everything but where in the system is he going Miz replacement?

Re: New signing Dom Ball
I think we only have him because he’s been injured . If it wasn’t for that I think he’d be in the Championship. Please God he’s now over his injury problems

Re: New signing Dom Ball
On the clubs website he said he’s a box to box midfielder . Isn’t that what Idris is ?

Yes he is,along with the other five and the five keepers we so badly need. Fantastic. Plus he’s a possible sick note fits in nicely

Re: New signing Dom Ball
Spot on, this is a key area that's been lacking a bit of nous and leadership, good signing as long as he stays fit and doesn't end up with the Callum Reilly award at end of the seasonRich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Wed Sep 11, 2024 9:30 am People moaning we haven’t got an experience and our midfield is losing battles then moan when we bring in an experienced midfielder.

It's about quality, we may have 5 but they don't add up to a solid unit at present. Needs a wiser older head in there to settle things, perhaps even alongside Pratley for the time being.Monkey Boy wrote: ↑Wed Sep 11, 2024 1:22 pmYes he is,along with the other five and the five keepers we so badly need.

The GK situation is ridiculous I agree, I see Keely chucked one in during his Ireland game so doesn't look like he'll be bothering Hemmings for the #1 spot either
