razza699 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 What about Stephen Dawson at Bury? Just been named in the league 2 team of the year and is out of contract this summer. Another midfielder i know but if we release players in that area and with the loan players going back he could be a good replacement. And we have had a couple of decent players off them in the past, Porter, Stephens. Ive never seen him play personally but i know a Bury season ticket holder who says he is probley their best player. Has anyone seen him play? Sounds like a workhorse but not a great goalscoring record.

razza699 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I have recommended a number of Irish League players to Oldham, one being Rory Patterson he has scored 40 goals this season for Coleraine and got called up to the Norn Ireland team. Rory was on trial with Plymouth a few weeks ago, but hasn't heard anything back. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rory_Patterson 2005–2008 F.C. United of Manchester Apps 106 Goals 84 Jesus that is some record at any level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveoafc Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 No chance of Hughes coming back IMO. On far too much money at Notts. Lewis Guy I would like, and is realistic. Like others I'm not sure about Nardiello. I saw less than him than others appear to have done, and his injury record isn't worth the risk. With the keeper, I wonder over the availability of Dimi Konstantaflopadopolis. Always seemed good to me, and isn't getting a game. Would be worth taking him on if only to get the extra revenue from fans paying for his name on their shirts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slystallone Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I recommended him to Latics three years ago. Only other one I've done so was Danny Green who is ripping up trees for Dagenham and would be eminently gettable. Best crosser and dead ball player I've ever seen outside the top division. Absolute screamer of a free-kick the other week.....looks the part too (white boots!!) Sam Saunders from Brentford (Ex Dagenham BTW) would be a player i'd love us to attempt to coax up north; top draw winger for our level IMO. I like Chris Lines from Bristol Rovers too in the high CM role. Unfortunately; neither are out of contract so just wont be on the radar. Free transfer signing all the way......

slystallone Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Millwall didn't take much of a chance - they paid around £120K for Morison, but that is about £115k more than Stevenage paid for him three years back. That’s the point – remember when Peterborough were on their run; from L2 to the champ and there was plenty on here about their team being made up of non-league buys – they were costly buys though; even if they did come from non-league. Don’t have the exact figures to hand but sure Boyd was around £225K from non-league – we just don’t have the cash to do that…….. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskedOwl Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I just don't see it with Flahavan - he is a good shot stopper but does not command the box on crosses and is no better than Brill in my opinion. In fact - I prefer Brill That's because in goal keeping terms the guy is a midget! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slystallone Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Oh; on a related point; what exactly is “worth a punt” that gets used on threads like this…….. <insert name of player> - he’s a goalscorer, might be worth a punt….. What is ‘a punt’? I’d wager that it’s usually more than we would be able to afford any-roads!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dish Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 No doubt I'll get shot down with this, but what about Nathan 'Duke' Ellington? Not sure about the contract situation, but has had a hard time of it at Watford and has been shipped off to Xanthi in Greece. Would be a quality signing, we'd just need to get in there first.... http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_5792369,00.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dish Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 ££ im afraid In terms of wages? I'm doubt Xanthi would be able to offer too much more. Just looking at their ground - a capacity of 8,000 suggests that they probably don't create that much more revenue than us. Might be wrong, but a return back North might suit.....

Bring Back Ronnie Moore Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) Jason Demetriou is out of contract at the end of the season iirc. Quality winger with a fair bit of potential....not sure he'll leave the division, I'd love him here however with him only being 22 I think we'd have to pay some compo. That said, would be a quality acquisition. Edited April 26, 2010 by Bring Back Ronnie Moore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
