Boys in Blue Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Maybe having no one interested in him and being stuck in a League 2 reserve team might make him re-evaluate his position. The next step after us could be non League despite his undoubted ability. We should leave the door open for him to change his ways and work his way back into the team. He’s contracted for a while so there’s still time for the situation to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midsblue Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Bored know of the Byrne chat. Conclusion is he’s divisive amongst us fans so let’s all agree to disagree. Question of more importance... how active will we be tomorrow? Don’t know who but I reckon 1 in but 2 out. Hope I’m wrong as we still need to strengthen up front, in middle and on the wing although Cotterill could tick two of those boxes. Only player I’d happily see leave is Gerrard.

Gerrard has gone, definitely. Think he’s got until the end of the month to find a new club due to him being a free agent and I suspect he’ll be waiting it out to see if he can get a financial settlement from Latics on the conclusion of his appeal. I have absolutely no idea how active we’ll be for the first time in years. Rumours of Hamer and Hunt leaving seem to have faded over the last few weeks - there’s very little coming out of the club nowadays. Just have to wait and see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of incomings, I don't think tomorrow is too pivotal because we can still bring loans or free agents in until the end of August, I think. If we do sell Hamer tomorrow, he might end up coming back to us on loan... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stanley30 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Heard about the quick lad up front for Wednesday. Can’t remember name, but reserve who is rapid and promising. Seems to be a fire sale there at the mo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you’re saying about youth however Tarky was originally a centre midfielder so was comfortable handling the ball. With Hunt, he never looks to be in control of the ball fully yet he’s been brought up through the ‘system’. It may well click in time but he’s a long way from that at present Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midsblue Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Apparently signing striker Connor Hall on 12 month loan according to local press over in Bolton. Really good signing and would be a great partner for Surridge. Hall more a poacher and scored a hat-trick against us early this week in that closed doors run out. Been on fire for Bolton’s U23 team scoring 23 goals last season. Scored 5 goals in one game against Ilkeston whilst on loan at Mickleover. Not your tried and tested striker but solid poacher wanted by a number of League 1 teams. If we secure him then would be good business reflecting our current level.

Handsy Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 So it’s transfer deadline day for permanent deals and only till 5pm so can we expect any activity ? I personally can’t see any incomings and maybe only 2 out goings at most Thoughts people or better still proper rumours about incoming or outgoing deals. Not that jacks been suspended for farting near the chairman’s wife or whatever other reasons some may think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However we need to strengthen up front and midfield, which was evident from Saturday. Connor Hall would be a great signing and if FB is allowed to field Byrne on Saturday then that’ll feel like a new signing. Cotterill cherry on top. Hamer rumours cooled but might see a deal for him going out but returning on loan until January. Makes sense for buying club to blood him here still and then play him from January. Lad will only appreciate in value. Can’t see Hunt leaving. Uncertain if his head turned but didn’t really impress me Saturday nor latter stages of last season.

Handsy Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I agree midsblue Connor hall is the poacher fox in the box type we need hope there’s legs in this rumour would be a good signing but think if he comes it will be at end of loan window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re crying out for another striker as Miller/O’Grady might chip in 5-10 each in season and Surridge can’t do it on his own. Benteke alongside Surridge would be my preferred option if we don’t strengthen plus give Duffus a run out when he returns. There’s a striker there at our level so hopefully FB has the chance to play him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Centre backs and centre forwards can take time to mature. Centre back Josh Heaton who I recommended at Droylsden a couple of years ago is now at St Mirren. I'm looking now at a young centre forward in non league on loan from Salford at Bradford PA called Jake Beesley as a case in example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
