Scunthorpe in the process of being taken over.

Tarkowski was in non league as a youth with North West Counties club Maine Road.

We actually had a bit of difficulty signing him up when we did even though he was 'only' at Maine road.

There were one or two bigger clubs sniffing and his family were trying to get him in at Utd through agents/contacts but after a bit of perseverance we managed to nab him.

We have offered six players out to clubs in the NL/NLN/NLS...

Was it something along the lines of...

Hi, it's Oldham Athletic here...

Please please please can you take (insert player here) off us...He's really good, honest!!

Kind regards, Oldham

**P.s, strictly sold as seen and no returns**

This has confirmed for me who the Clergyman is...

Go on...

I knew it wasn't you (even though some insisted it was) so I'm intrigued...

Let's be honest

He's not on his own, but Jordan Clarke has been atrocious.

I’m sorry but IMO you’re all talking absolute bollocks. The majority of these players cannot pass a football and don’t work hard enough off the ball.
Playing 442 wouldn’t make any difference whatsoever to the end result….we need to bring in better players, I’m sorry but that is the only answer!!

Agree with this. Doesn't matter what the formation is when most of the players can't play a simple pass. So many straight to the opposition.

Half our lot look like they are running through treacle. 

No leadership - completely powderpuff. 

Literally the only positive today for me was Abraham but we need another 6 or 7 of similar ilk to stand a chance.

We're going down

And just like that...

He's looked decent Abraham 

Ref's given us fuck all

Maynard just stands and watches.

Honestly, 8 or 9 of these need their contracts cancelling.

Not sure who some folk were expecting?

Should Vaughan be added to the "gets better every time he doesn't play" list? 

Well Nuttall starts 

Nuttall starts for Scunny 

Bid accepted for Joe Nuttall according to the Oldham Times

Onyango also out on loan at Burton at the moment

On the face of it, it's a good signing. Player of the Year twice in this division in recent years. Curious as to why Barrow were willing to let him go...

According to Barrow's forum he doesn't fit in with Wilds work ethic! That doesn't fit in with what Unsworth said in his first presser though, he was big on players working hard.

Barrow looking at Jordan Lyden to replace him.

Wild signs multi year deal at Barrow. Very strange as it was reported he signed a 3 year deal when he took over there...

Probably to fend off our interest...

Not an ex player but Nicky Maynard signs for Macclesfield, should score a few at that level.

Can't see him pulling up any plants there

What purse strings? He's obviously not coming in to waste cash so with the protest and boycott reducing ST sales and money in there won't be cash to spend.

 

Need a big uptake on ST sales Monday and  then maybe there might be some

You don't chuck £12m down the drain and not be able to find a couple of extra quid for a few decent signings, I don't care who you are! 

And he knows full well they'll be an uptake in season tickets and match day revenue...

Super, super Frank

Super Frankie Rothwell

Over to you Frankie boy,

Loosen the purse strings for 3 or 4 decent signings and we'll all be on board HMS piss the league.

P.s... Sheridan's blue white army

In the least surprising post of 2022

Kyle Jameson getting pelters for his "performance" for Tranmere today.

Fair enough. I hope so. Probably coming across as having an agenda now but I find anyone in City shorts pretty offensive.

Can't be any worse than Mo with his Manure season ticket.
