I dont known the inns and outs, but he was apprently on reduced pay whilst furloughed. So now will be back on full pay or he would be dragging us through the courts.

TheBigDog Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Looking forward to the club finding the wherewithal to bring in at least two players this week. A centre back and a central midfielder as a minimum. We have until 5pm Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaddyexile84 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Woods' photo back on first team squad (his and Wheater's were removed after our latest shambolic "Club Statement) wonder if that means we are recalling him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It went back on there when we sent him out on loan. If the Lawlor injury is serious though he could well be recalled. Or even ZDLP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kind of what we need at the moment. Yeah I know we shouldn't be in this mess etc but we want players who can pull us clear of the relegation zone. That doesn't mean I want a group of cloggers necessarily it can come in all shapes and sizes and backgrounds just aslong as they make us better.

Behind Closed Doors Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 There is something that doesn’t add up about wanting players who are up for fighting relegation.( with 41 games to play) ...why? wouldnt a better strategy be to find players who are good enough to help us win games and not be in a relegation position. Players who are proven good players in a relegation battle are Ipso facto players who play in relegation threatened sides. If you are playing in a team in the bottom positions is there not at least a case that you are part of the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obvious we need a couple of experienced "battle hardened" players in midfield and defence who know how to win games. You react to where you are, not where you'd like to be !

Yes but we have played 5 out of 46 and to talk about the need to sign players who are up for a relegation battle is hardly a positive mindset and is likely to be a self fulfilling prophecy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It smacks off- we just want to finish third from bottom. But then, that’s a hardly a surprise I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Clark managed to get relegated twice in one season - but I'd take someone with his attitude, commitment and leadership in a heartbeat.

hollandspies Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Was it Ritchie who on deadline day (ish) signed Carss, Hughes and Kilkenny when we were in a bit of a hole? What a master stroke that was!.... and, as a result, didn’t we celebrate (relatively) good times? Over to you ‘Kewell and the Gang’. Joking aside, we need 3 quality signings on Friday.
