Any Cheltenham/Crewe player worth watching then?

CREWE  HAVE GOT A PRETTY QUALITY STRIKER DEAN ASHTON? DOUBT HE'D COME HERE THOUGH.

 I'll take a random punt on Shane Duff.....Cheltnum CH....Sturrock says we've a glaring gap and that's probably it...OK Nicho can play there but is he really a natural CH....Duff is a Swindon boy...would Cheltnum pay much more than us.   Anyway its just a guess.

Is that the same Dean Ashton who left Crewe for Norwich in Jan 05 and then moved to West Ham in Jan 06?

I would so say so santini

Shane Duff ? I have a Cheltenham squad player called Duff...but he was Michel and was an ace . I always sold him on 5.000.000. Ł . When the game started he was worth 20k.

 Yeah that Duff was Michael Duff, different Duff...he followed Cotterill from Cheltnum to Burnley....maybe a couple of seasons back...Damian Duff would do us, but probably not at CH.

Championship Manager 01/02
The best one there ever was.
Mike Duff
Jamie Victory
To Madiera
The list goes on:D

in the classic last dos effort 97/98, Kenny Lunt had the maximum possible potential. He's still playing for crewe isn't he?

Shane Duff was the other of my youth players I had at Highworth when I was coaching them ... UNLIKELY to move from Cheltenham as he was their player of the year last year and one of their top men ....

Cheltenham: Higgs, Caines, Townsend, Duff, Wilson, Melligan, Finnigan (Yao), Gill, Connolly, Spencer, Odejayi.
Subs Not Used: Brown, Guinan, Gillespie, Foley.

Crewe: Williams, Otsemobor, Baudet, Jones, Bignot, Gary Roberts, O'Connor (Matthews), Rix, Vaughan, Maynard, Varney.
Subs Not Used: Grant, Lowe, Jack, O'Donnell

...it was the only game last night outside the Premiership, and it's 40 minutes down the road if that. Maybe he just thought it was better than Corrie.

Hmmm. Jon Ostembor was supposed to be quite highly rated a few years ago. What are the chances of us affording to sign Odejayi??? :mrgreen:

Varney, Maynard and Jones are off to the Prem, I was going to say he was watching Luke Rodgers but he didn't play.

I don't want us signing Cheltenham bench warmers  :|

Has Championship clubs sniffing about after refusing to sign a new deal - manager's go to games because they need a good knowledge of the whole of the football tier, and of the league we'll hopefully be in - it needn't necessarily have been a scouting trip

Heard he was going back to Liverpool.

Maynard, odejaye, maybe spencer, is he still at cheltenham?

I thought liverpool released him,  not loaned him out! I might be wrong, i usually am!

Millom

He got a bullet in the arse once. That's not a stange euphemism...literally, shot in the arse.

Loaned to Hull, sold to them then Crewe. Semmy was awesome as a youth - pace, strength, skills. He was destined for great things but he developed a tendency to let his concentration lapse on the pitch and he would get out of position and lose his man.

A lot like Ifil, but with a footballing brain and skills.

Just found this...

In particular this bit..



Could he be one of the players we're after? Sturrock mentioned one of our targets would be cup tied and Rodgers would be.

I thought he meant that the glaring gap was a goal scorer :shock:

Ostembor am i right that he got shot in the arse on a night out in Liverpool.

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

  Well we do have a few bodies in that department.....even if they're not all that hot, but we've been fortunate that the Williams/Ifil axis has been mainly stable this season.....if I was manager I'd want some cover here for the rest of the season.

That is a quite remarkable statement. Are you a time traveller stranded in the year 2001 and this is like a cry for help or something?

Or is it a really, really, really ironic statement and it's gone right over our heads?

You can't just say 'yes' to that BTW. You will have to explain exactly why it is irony.

i think the fact it's all in capital letters might just give it away...?

THE DUDE ABIDES

Night out in Speke - happens all the time.

Pinched from a scouser's forum:

yup players of the year never move clubs, much like our last few

Rhys Evans, Sam Parkin & Tommy Mooney.

I believe Sturrock thinks Peacock could do a job at CB if needs must and all that.

We also have Nicho & CCP!

Aren't I a clever boy. :D

Yeah thats true .. but I think he is highly regarded and likely to cost a few hundred thousand that we havent got
