  1. Right - For the record:

     

    Cliff Byrne.

     

    I said he was a player we would look at. 2 replies later someone took that as he was training with us.

     

    Football transfers was then updated by someone (probably after reading this page) saying he was training with us.

    Cheers for clearing that up.
  2. So with PD saying that he hoped to have the majority of his squad in place for the Portugal trip in 4 days, this board and other rumours have gone really quiet. Is Cliff Bryne definatly training with us? He would be just the type of experience we need. I'm sure that we are working hards behind the scenes and there is still plenty of time but can't help but get slighly twitchy when we are still a fair few players light!

  3. Very pleased with how the squad is shaping up but still need the following IMO:

     

    1st choice right back as i think Brown will be used as a utilty player from the bench.

    1st choice centre half with League experiance Nathan Clarke/ Zac Whitbread/ Alex Bruce/ Fitz Hall all available on free's or Reece Brown back on a season long loan deal.

    1st choice Left winger as looking through the squad i don't see we have one at all. Aiden White from Leeds available on a free did well here last time.

    1st choice Striker with League experiance and who knows where the net is Leon Clarke / Freedy Eastwood / Roman Bednar / Steven Davis

     

    KTF

    bloody hell Cornish some big names touted there!! White had a very good season by all accounts last season. Apparently the premiership beckons. There still hope for us all.

    No he's not? Not at all.

    Freddy Eastwood had decent scoring record with Southend in his 1st spell; enough to catch the eye and earn a decent move.....but his record since is pretty poor - and when I saw him play not last season; but the season before - his was actually out of the box more than Kuqi was for us last season. He's a good way off being called a proven poacher.....

    he's certainly a proven scorer? Either way the calibre of yesterday's signing and ones we are linked to such a Eastwood are far more established than I thought we would be in for.

    he turned down our contract for more money. simple as that. can't see him settling at any club to be honest. some players are just like that.

    good luck to him it's a short career. He may have got an extra year with pne which almost makes It a no brainer. There still an attractive club to play for in a fantastic stadium. Just managed by a complete loon.

    I disagree , the wingers put the ball in the box more than people think last season. Its just our strikers were never in the box. Kuqi was either too busy arguing with someone or he was recovering from tracking back 50 yards .

    agreed none of our strikers gambled last season so that doesn't help. Lee and morais were a fantastic partnership, so down the right there was supply. The supply form the left was virtually non existent.

    Are you kidding me ? Between him and Simpson last year they produced some awesome crosses.

     

    Lets go back to the days of Roca on our flanks

     

    Seriously who do you think we can get at this level ? We will struggle to find anyone better than Morais on our budget

    I must empasize the word some razza. Although at times they produced some good crosses it was not enough. That goes for the whole team. U will probably say that they wouldn't be at this level if they could cross consistently but I think a pro footballer who is classed as a winger like morais needs to hit the danger area much more than we did last season. Too many floated balls in too.
  8. Alan Connell released by Swindon today, could he do a job?

     

    I think he could and within our wages bracket would think, swindon paid over 100,000 only 11 months ago

    thought about him, but he has never really done it at league 2 has he? 12 goals last season. Would prefer someone with more of a goals record if we can someone afford it.
