whats gone with the 2 signing

[TheBigDog]

upto a maximum of 3 months i believe all deals for season long loan deals had to be completed yesterday

 

So if we want Trotman and Kilkenny for the playoffs then we need to sign 'em end of February - easy peasy -

The rarely wrong Chron says Manager John Sheridan’s move for a second player failed because of circumstances at the player’s club.

 

"ATHLETIC rushed through the loan signing of Wolves player Daniel Jones (pictured inset) 15 minutes before the transfer window shut.

 

But a move for another unnamed player broke down, although that deal could be resurrected as an emergency loan later this month.

 

In a busy day at Boundary Park, striker Chris O’Grady was loaned to Coca-Cola League One rivals Stockport County for the remainder of the campaign just after hours after he returned from a spell at Bradford City.

 

Striker Craig Davies completed his transfer to Brighton for an undisclosed six-figure sum, which is understood to be more than £100,000.

 

The reason Jones’ loan move to the end of the season went down to the wire is because of his currently injury situation.

 

He is recovering from the ankle ligament damage sustained in his initial loan spell with Athletic in December.

 

An agreement has been struck whereby Athletic don’t pay any of Jones’ wages until he resumes playing. He is expected to be back in action for the trip to Yeovil on February 21.

 

Jones, who impressed during his initial two-months at Boundary Park, will provide more options on the left.

 

Manager John Sheridan’s move for a second player failed because of circumstances at the player’s club.

 

O’Grady, who has had temporary spells at Bury and Bradford already this season, was unable to cross the Pennines to sign his forms.

 

But Athletic chief executive Alan Hardy got round the problem by faxing the paperwork to a post office near to O’Grady’s home and the striker was able to sign and return the forms."

 

Apart from the usual suspects, has anyone any idea who the 'unnamed' 2nd player was?

Apart from the usual suspects, has anyone any idea who the 'unnamed' 2nd player was?

I can only second guess on the weight of speculation and "sightings" that it was either Gleeson or Kilkenny. And I suspect the circumstances were that their home club had tried and failed to bring in a better player in that position.
