RobOAFC Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Two giant centre backs signed, in July...? Clarke, Burgess, Reckord, Banks, Woodland, Erwin all 6ft plus signings. Add to that Edmundson, Stott, Knight and Cassidy all being 6ft+. Tallest team we've had recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tallest team we've had recently? Hardworking lumps over rapid ambivalent players like Poleon anyway of the week...hopefully they are hardworking!

Tallest team we've had recently? Remember how weak and pathetic we were against Rochdale? This is a really beefed up team. Not sure about Banks. Not many good things written about him. Clarke is an excellent signing. i'd like to see a couple more of his quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Chesterfield fan told me then Banks is appalling in every way, then the other told him to behave as Banks was their best technical player. Football fans aren't worth listening to sometimes...

jmantonhoward Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Anthony Grant has handed in a transfer request at Port Vale. Steady player at this level. Could we afford him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player I've always liked whenever I've seen him. Would be delighted with his signature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtimeblue Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 PC a great signing Captain for me.... Ollie Banks is technically very good and tall ignore the rubbish from Chesterfield. Will do ok here with good coaching. They've watched him for a couple of years in fairness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tallest team we've had recently? Time spent on the training ground on set pieces then especially if Law is our set piece specialist. Goals from corners and free kicks you would hope. Still a few players light notably in midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcassist Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Tonight's trialist was Liandro Martis after a very lot of searching (found him), very quick on the ball, beat most of the PNE players easily and scored a wonder goal from 30 yards, sign him up.Lofty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liandro_Martis http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/liandro-martis/profil/spieler/249191 http://www.national-football-teams.com/player/48208/Liandro_Martis.html Curaçaoan international (well, one cap a few years ago). Started out at Feyenoord, went to Willem II, doesn't seem to have played for either. Aged 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently we can't do that cos according to someone on here he's "too small"! People do come out with some crap. If he's good enough he's big enough :-) Edited July 20, 2016 by AlanGrovesFanClub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pukka Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Palmer was our smallest player of about 50 that played last year, I'd say he was the best too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madlatic Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Yes he looked like little boy lost last night .

We need an experienced leader in midfield and upfront. A bit of quality needed. Add a bit of pace down the wings and a second left-back and we'll do okay.
