Lee Sinnott2 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 We have been talking to a midfielder from Halifax. He has a few other clubs in for him so I doubt he will end up here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying don't be held to ransom by players who are ten a penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Og Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Unless we are prepared to pay well over the odds (doubt it) then it is inevitable that we will be left scrabbling around as the season comes close to make up a squad. We are a failing club with a toxic reputation and if players we want have other offers then they will give those offers due consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this player holds out on all his offers he will finish up in non league if he's not careful. Players who have offers are in the driving seat and their agents can play club's off against each other. It's the players still without offers near the end of the transfer window who will drop their demands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always find that after june 30th once the old contracts end that signings happen Im not expecting us to announce any signings of players until then we may have irons in the fire as we speak. For all tge problems at the club Im not concerned about the current lack of movement in the transfer market and I do expect us to sign players. The quality, value for money, and overall judgement will be what I may question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree at least we wont just have Lee Croft turning up next Wednesday Though we will have Jameson, Diarra and Blackwood so I think Id prefer Crofty on his own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why there's always free agents after the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convince me now they have improved the batsmen in particular? You can't of course as you blindly believe the hype everything modern is unbeatable. As for music, convince me modern technology has improved that too? Glad I was young in the 1960s and 70s, players like Bobby Johnstone and Alan Groves had individual flair and weren't judged by how many kilometres they ran in a game. Only Grealish matches them today and yet Southgate wants him to defend more for the team..that's when he reluctantly picks him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
