Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Tuesday, July 31, 2007, 09:55:41 .....lifted from Sky
However, the player's agent, Paul Mohamed has told skysports.com that his client will play for Swindon against Bristol City on Tuesday before making any decision on his future. "International clearance has been passed for Kaid to play for Swindon on Tuesday," he told skysports.com. "Obviously it was an opportunity too good to resist so Kaid will play for Swindon and then we can take it from there." Apparently Wrexham want him as well. Title: Kaid Mohamed......

You never know, he seems to be a bit of a poacher anywho with a bit of speed about him. Wrexham fans said he's done well for them and they still want to sign him.

If he turns out to be great and answers our goalscoring prayers, I'll hapilliy eat humble pie, but I'm not expecting much. The Welsh league is really really shit. Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: Colin Todd on Tuesday, July 31, 2007, 11:18:05 Guima is shit as well bth

Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: SwindonTartanArmy on Tuesday, July 31, 2007, 12:28:51 Scored quite a few pre-season for Wrexham from what I can gather. including a strike against blackburn
Quote Wrexham manager Brian Carey says he will decide this week whether to offer trialist Kaid Mohamed a Dragons deal. "We're looking at the situation," he said after seeing Mohamed star with a brace in the 4-1 win at Dungannon. "He's done as much as he can to impress me and has fitted in well. He offers us something different and made problems for defenders every time he's come on." The 22-year-old striker from Caerau Ely has scored three goals in four Wrexham games, including one against Blackburn. 606: DEBATE Should Wrexham sign Mohamed? Mohamed chose to leave Welsh Premier side Carmarthen Town in the summer, having scored two goals in May's 3-1 Welsh Cup final win over Afan Lido. He notched 32 goals in 79 Welsh Premier games after making his debut for Cwmbran Town at the age of 18. Mohamed moved to Llanelli two years later, but really made his mark at Carmarthen with 21 goals last season, enough for former Old Gold manager Mark Jones to recommend him to Carey. I want to go to the next level, being a full-time professional is my target Kaid Mohamed "I've really enjoyed the trial period, I'm happy with my performances and was over the moon with the way I took the goals at Dungannon," Mohamed told BBC Sport Wales. "I liked my time at Carmarthen but now I want to go to the next level, being a full-time professional is my target. "Brian [Carey] hasn't said much about my chances, he's just told me not to worry about it and to go out and enjoy myself on the pitch." Title: Kaid Mohamed......

He sounds pacey and strong and seems a hard worker who knows where the goal is. From what it says in on eof those links below, his head doesn't drop, if he misses his game doesn't change, he just keeps going regardless. Or something like that.

With a bit of time and practice, a good addition to the squad? Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: mattboyslim on Wednesday, August 1, 2007, 07:32:01 Underwhelmed, I think the #10 Arrieta looked a little better, but we'll see, by no means the worst triallist ever. On another note Blair looked lots faster than before, although I worry with just him up top at the moment.
Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: fatbury on Wednesday, August 1, 2007, 08:36:33 Not as good as Royce Brownlie
Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: Colin Todd on Wednesday, August 1, 2007, 08:49:18 Arrieta was significantly better then him, although to be fair he has been training with us so knows the players which Shake Mohhamed dosnt. He did show a few decent touches but gave the ball away too much for my liking. I think he'd need to play with a target man to see the best of him.
If we are going to sign an unproven striker through semi-desperation I'd sign Arrieta on a 6 month / 1 year deal. Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: Dazzza on Wednesday, August 1, 2007, 09:36:58 Where's my favourite Guiema the Portuguese Fallon gawne?

On another note Blair looked lots faster than before, although I worry with just him up top at the moment. Yeah i agree, i thought Arrieta was the better of the two forwards. Looked determined to win everything, but then again he is trying to impress. Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: Barry Scott on Wednesday, August 1, 2007, 10:14:34 I was pleased with both. Neither really came looking for the ball, which i liked, they both looked good with the ball at their feet, Kaid was deceptively strong and seemed very quick with great awareness.
I think we should sign them both. Arrieta clearly knows the game and seemed to have more fighting spirit than most euro strikers. He laid some nice balls off for others and played a cracking through ball for Kaid, which unfortunately was not read by Kaid. They look like they could both score, but Bristol, defensively, like us, were very good i felt, coupled with a severe lack of supply to our front men, would explain it being hard to make an easy decisions on them. Blair looked good as well, seems to fitter than last season. I don't like him up front alone though. Title: Kaid Mohamed......

Everyone seems to say in one breath that A, B or C looks good but then equally mentions we lack a threat and don't look like scoring. Sounds like newer less effective versions of Roberts, look good on the ball, don't score enough. It doesn't suprise me though, the squad, while looking a little tighter than 2005/06, seems to offer no greater threat to opposition teams (in fact back then we had Fallon going at a goal every 2 games). With no additions we should be looking to grind out results this coming season. First target should be to survive, which given the state of the club off the field would be an achievement. Any thing above about 18th I think would be a good season for us and should we manage to get a couple of really good forward thinking players we can talk beyond that. Title: Kaid Mohamed......

I saw the game, and I can draw any conclusions I want from it, if im wrong I will stand corrected. I prefer the well built strikers in this league, they are a safer option. You cant afford to get knocked off the ball. As for the thinner legs, its something they talk about to teenagers trying to go pro, its something clubs look at, usually because it lessens your chance of serious leg injury. Building up muscles in the lower legs does stand you in much better shape. Old fashioned idea maybe, but theres no need to ridicule it just because you've never heard people talk about it Herthab/Samdy Gray/Richard4acre. Obviously you have Peter Crouch, but I would say those matchstick legs have held him back. He's consitantly been a better player than people give him credit for because of how spindly he looks, and I agree that is wrong. On the other hand, we had George Ndah, who also had very thin legs, and his career ended with a broken leg that wouldnt heal, probably only had 1 injury free season in his entire career.

Post by: sonic youth on Wednesday, August 1, 2007, 20:11:28 hmm, fair point ost.
looking at luggy's signings... zaaboub aljofree mohamed comminges he's blatantly just signing players with fun names Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, August 1, 2007, 20:27:06 You can't beat a comedy name. I wonder what happened to that Croissant bloke???
There's a thread about Mohamed on this Wrecsam site. One lamo had even had 'Mohamed' printed on the back of his shirt 8) :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: http://www.red-passion.com/ Title: Kaid Mohamed......

I hope we play Swindon soon so I can boo the scum.
I had already got Mohammed on the back of my shirt. Oh well I am going to see if the club shop will change it to Pembridge, it's the same number of letters." :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: oh dear!

Wrexham fans seem to rate him... Would probably take a while to settle here but could be the poacher we need? He dosnt even have a 1 in 2 ratio in the welsh league. how does that indicate he's good enough for league 1? You've never seen him play for fuck sake.... Lukas didnt have a brilliant record in league two and he's now a Premiership player. Not yet he isn't Title: Kaid Mohamed......

Give him a bit of time though and then make judgement on what he's like.
Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: Tails on Wednesday, August 1, 2007, 22:44:06 Will need to be patient with this one.
Could be brilliant, could be shite, but worth a go I reckon. Hopefully a great bit of business by Sturrock. Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: Luci on Friday, August 3, 2007, 08:39:37 Quote Town boss Paul Sturrock insisted Mohamed was not a panic buy. He said: "We have had him watched for a while. Bristol City was the first time we saw him live and for 30 minutes he looked no way out of sorts for the standard. "He could be a very big asset. With development he could become a wee nugget. I took a similar player at St Johnstone, Kevin Twaddle, and we then sold him to the Scottish Premier League. "I see potential in the player and it is up to him to fulfill it. If he shows he is the best of the bunch come the start of the season he will play." These kind of comments really restore my faith in Sturrocks decisions. Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: janaage on Friday, August 3, 2007, 09:44:39 I'm optimistic about Mo, reckon we'll make a fair bit of money on the player in years to come.

However I do think we'll go on a season long unbeaten run, create history for most ever points scored in League 1 and win the League and FA Cup...beating Manchester United and Chelsea 8) Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: flammableBen on Friday, August 3, 2007, 14:09:33 I too think we'll go on an unbeaten run. And get relegated on 46 points.

I recall in 86/87, Exeter drew 23 games, which may be a record for a season. A lot of them were 0-0.....they introduced a local centre half Shaun Taylor, to stiffen the defence, and had ex Town scuttler Paul Batty working the mid field. The lack of creativity was caused by losing Martin Ling to STFC. Maybe we should aim to eclipse this record this season. Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: OOH!

Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: magic8ball on Friday, August 3, 2007, 16:24:32 About this Kaid geezer....I know someone who used to play with him in his Llanelli days.
Apparently, he's a sound guy, quick, but can run a little hot and cold. Also, he has a temper, got himself sent off a fair few times too. Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: reeves4england on Friday, August 3, 2007, 16:30:32 I think Sturrock knows this could be a great signing or a pretty average player - but he obviously sees some potential there.
As for the record for draws in a season, didn't Rovers draw absolutely loads a couple of years ago? Title: Kaid Mohamed......

An interesting fact is that our joint record of 17 draws in a season was 95/96 when we won this league for the only time. Title: Kaid Mohamed......

Yes, and we should have won a hell of a lot of those...we never really spanked anyone that season. Enjoyed the season, mind...but it could've and should've been even better.

It got to the point where every single team was coming to the CG to play for a draw and put 10 men behind the ball. All too often that worked. Away from home of course they had to come out and attack a bit and we were then able to catch them on the break. I would say we did spank a few teams without having the score line to show for it. The nearest we got to a proper spanking was the 4-1 v Bradford (managed by Chris Kamara at the time) early in the season. You see Reg, that's the difference between you and me (well one of them anyway) You point out the record number of draws, whereas I prefer to point out the record number of away wins. I'm so profound :? Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: donkey on Friday, August 3, 2007, 19:35:45 Quote from: "OOH!

The nearest we got to a proper spanking was the 4-1 v Bradford (managed by Chris Kamara at the time) early in the season. A very good point. We were seen as the team to beat from the off (first points dropped to the Pox, that hurt!). But I would expect our manager to work out how to deal with that. Drawing 1-1 with 10 man Chesterfield was pretty poor (although we had at least one, and probably two goals disallowed). Maybe I just don' like McMahon... Yeah, that's it. I don't like Steve McMahon. A mate once slagged McMahon off to his (McMahon's) brother, and when he said he was his brother, my mate just said 'Fair enough, but I'm not gonna change my mind.' Quality.

Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Saturday, August 4, 2007, 11:34:38 We were a damned good side that season. That team is one of the best Town sides I have seen, relative to the division they were in.
I can't actually think of another season where we went out and dominated teams week in, week out like we did in 95-96. Title: Kaid Mohamed......

This was the season a bunch of what were clearly mates in front of me, decided to have a big falling out when one of them wouldn't stop moaning because we were only winning 1-0 at home to Swansea. I think after a few slaps he decided to go home around half time or just after. Didn't we give Oxford a footballing lesson at the CG that season? Title: Kaid Mohamed...... Post by: Tails on Saturday, August 4, 2007, 14:23:44 We drew 1-1, and they spanked us at the manor.
