  1. Is this lad another one of Barry's rehabilitation projects? https://http://www.expressandstar.com/sport/wolverhampton-wanderers-fc/2011/11/04/jamie-reckord-has-future-at-wolves-despite-suspended-sentence-for-assault/
  2. Maybe his personal reason is that he like to be paid - nobody at the club has been paid yet for June.
  3. Wages late again this month - players not paid yet.
  4. It's a different Ryan Ellison, the one who was a Latics youth has signed for Stockport.
  5. Lafferty looks a long way off being match fit.
  6. Unless something changes they won't. They'd be better advised to drop to non-league and get some game time rather than spend the next year or two suffering like the current crop.
  7. What about the young left back we already have at the club?
  8. Wasn't it mentioned recently that games were to be arranged to assess Fuller and Brandy - if this is the case it's beyond me why they can't be arranged on a regular basis for players we already have on the books. Surely between 2 1st team coaches and Tony P arrangements could be made on a regular basis.
  9. Another 19 year old with no senior competitive experience. Is it really worth continuing with a youth policy if we're happy to bring in youngsters from other clubs over homegrown players?
  10. Cassidy's fractured his leg and done his ankle ligaments. I think we can cut him some slack there.
  11. But where do you draw the line? Turning out for the Rose and Crown on a Sunday morning is a chance to play against men. Some of the younger players performed really well pre-season, especially Edmondson and Truelove so where do you look to loan them? One of Johnsons many failings was his complete refusal to develop players but I'm not sure sending lads out to Evo Stik clubs is beneficial. Conf North should be the minimum standard.
  12. Were they loaned out at a higher level prior to going to Barrow & Droylsden? I must admit I've only seen a bit of Bove pre-season so it's hard to judge as is the case with the 1st years with the exception of Edmundson. He and Truelove had very good pre-seasons - should they be loaned out to teams at Ashtons level to aid their development?
  13. Have to agree with this, he was loaned out to Conf North last season and is now going a level below. 1st year pro's shouldn't even be playing at the Evo-Stik level.
  14. Coleman Wilson - Wilson - Burn - Mills Croft - Kelly - Jones - Winchester Turner - Cassidy
  15. I can only see Green being a fringe player this season - looked to me in pre-season as if he needs a lot of coaching and certainly won't fit into a 4-4-2. Will struggle to play wide as we saw against Blackburn and Jones and Kelly have the starting spots for centre mid.
  16. Cassidy and Turner will both start tomorrow with Forte on the bench.
  17. That's surprising as 1st year pro's at Oldham are on around £200 per week.
  18. When you mentioned a marauding left back who is the best crosser of the ball at the club i was surprised you followed it up with the name Mills.
  19. I thought Truelove had a good 45, eager to get on the ball and defended sensibly despite getting no help or cover from the no 11 trialist. All a matter of opinions I suppose but calling someone a coward who wrecked his knee and possibly his career while wearing an Oldham shirt is pushing things a bit. Cassidy would have been better served playing the 2nd half alongside Turner to see how effective he can be - yesterday gave no indication at all.
  20. The Sunderland forums make for some uncomfortable reading about this lad - as does his spell at Boston.
  21. Sat behind Crofty in the main stand a few weeks ago - didn't realise it was him until the end of the game as he's half the size he was 2 years ago.
  22. I would hope that the club would give Bove and Truelove another year - they've been failed by the club this season. Send both straight out on loan at the beginning of the season for 3 to 6 months of competitive football.
  23. A team of triallists from other clubs with a couple of youth players thrown in to make up the numbers.
  24. He's the polar opposite of Johnson. Managed a long career at numerous clubs without relying on his dad for appearance money. Doesn't rely on buzz words when being interviewed. Gives the young players a chance rather than bullying them. Doesn't have an ego bigger than the club. Popular with the players and staff. I think he's worth a go personally.
  25. I thought the same with Sadler - expected much more guile and impact from an experienced player. He seems to be going through the motions. I think at this point we go with a couple of our youngsters rather than a constant stream of loans. It might work and suddenly we have another asset or two. Turner always looks lively when he comes on and finished well last night. Woodland looks OK but maybe some of our own young players would do just as well given half a chance.
