Title: 5 more players please Post by: red macca on Monday, August 20, 2007, 12:26:52 2 strikers
2 wingers And still think a creative midfielder would be useful. Definatly need two wingers as i think roberts and sofi are both very petulant and likely to pick up suspensions and roberts is likely to have his annual injury. Apart from that the squads complete in my opinion Title: 5 more players please Post by: Luci on Monday, August 20, 2007, 12:29:08 I honestly think Sofi and Roberts looked dangerous on Saturday and Roberts is superb when he puts the work in which I think we'll see more of under Sturrock.
I agree with needing 2 strikers though. Title: 5 more players please Post by: janaage on Monday, August 20, 2007, 12:30:04 Roberts has been very good so far this year, he looks very dangerous. Zaboub I'm not that convinced, needs to knuckle down and so us his class. I'd love to see Lloyd Macklin be given a chance against the men and see what he can do. As I think he looks a quality prospect.
But as for transfers, I'd settle for two strikers at this time. Title: 5 more players please Post by: red macca on Monday, August 20, 2007, 12:32:46 Dont get me wrong those two played very well saturday i mean more for cover we need two wingers.Those two will definatly at some point be suspended for back chatting or kicking the ball away they cant help themselves
Roberts imo was best player on the pitch saturday followed by ifil Title: 5 more players please Post by: flammableBen on Monday, August 20, 2007, 12:35:07 If we could sign one player who could do all 5, at the same time, then we could play more people in goal.

Apart from that the squads complete in my opinion I'd agree with that. Our wingers, when on form are great.....but they need competition for places. Is it any co-incidence there is loads of news stories about us signing what is effectivly a Premiership left winger then on Saturday Zaaboub ups his game by about 200% and puts in one of, if not the best performance since he signed a long term deal. To get the best out of players they need to be on their toes, and know every single week they are playing for their place. Title: 5 more players please Post by: Batch on Monday, August 20, 2007, 12:43:53 Obviously it's about as unreliable as, well, as thisis ever is, but one name suggested over there is Michael Bridges. In absense of any real evidence of anything else, what would you think. I'd presume he'd be a loan player and could do well.
I assume Holmes is t'other player trying to be brought in. A touch of quality to the solid squad we already have hopefully. Title: 5 more players please Post by: fatbury on Monday, August 20, 2007, 12:49:17 2 strikers would be best!
Title: 5 more players please Post by: flammableBen on Monday, August 20, 2007, 12:52:57 I think we need 5 players, one each from 5 contries. Or is it 4 countries?

I like the idea of having players from different countries playing.....Bolton last season several times fielded an XI composed of players from eleven different countries, and it did them no harm.....Alouette is good as a first Spaniard, and doubtless we'll soon be getting a shed load of Portugeezers, disappointingly short on Eastern Europeans though. Title: 5 more players please Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Monday, August 20, 2007, 16:59:38 We only need 1 striker. We have 4 already and Corr will be back soon. We do need back-up for both wingers though so 2 wingers and 1 striker i reckon we need.

Looks like the Easter deal is a dead duck. 125k? We are having a laugh considering they turned down 600k from MK. Title: 5 more players please Post by: pumbaa on Monday, August 20, 2007, 18:58:24 That was because MK offered monopoly money, the pricks :soapy tit wank:
But you're right, that offer is laughable to say the least. Title: 5 more players please Post by: Fred Elliot on Monday, August 20, 2007, 19:01:33 Quote from: "pumbaa" But you're right, that offer is laughable to say the least. *Devil's Advocate* Yes Coxy...........................................and completely out of the question a month ago ! :wink: You lot make me laugh...................If someone would had told you 2 weeks ago that we would be making £125k bids for strikers you would all have been knocking one out over the keyboards !!!! Jeeeesh !! :mrgreen: Title: 5 more players please Post by: pumbaa on Monday, August 20, 2007, 19:04:21 Er, didn't we pay 50k for Aljofree a month or so ago???
Its laughable because its less than a quarter of a bid the plastic spactics got rejected. A player that Wycombe valued at 750k last season. No harm in trying though. I think thats the point anyway...maybe...wibble... :wink: Title: 5 more players please Post by: Fred Elliot on Monday, August 20, 2007, 19:06:28 50k yes mate........................the terms of which were undisclosed.
Could have been £5k now and the rest staged over the season. I'm just happy that PS has been given the green light to spend Title: 5 more players please Post by: pumbaa on Monday, August 20, 2007, 19:12:43 Don't get me wrong, I'd be delighted to get Easter on board. I just don't think we can compete financially with MK yet when trying to buy players. Now that hurts saying that...
Title: 5 more players please Post by: Fred Elliot on Monday, August 20, 2007, 19:15:52 Agreed
Title: 5 more players please Post by: Frigby Daser on Monday, August 20, 2007, 19:38:56 Was the MK bid confirmed as 600k or just rumour? easter is out of contract at the end of the season, so they can't hold out indefinitely - and if wants the move then a formal bid could make him push for it too.
If we go back with more you never know - why would we have tried bidding that price in the knowledge MK had definitely bid 600k? Title: 5 more players please Post by: herthab on Monday, August 20, 2007, 20:34:45 I would be surprised if MK bid that much.
There losses for the year ran into the millions. I think Winkleman is also being forced to tighten the purse strings. That said, if they did bid more than us, it's down to the player: he doesn't have to go anywhere. If he chose MK over us, then fuck him, he's a cunt.......

They got 1 mill for Mcleod and some more for Clive Platt i do believe. So even by spending 600k on Easter they'd still be making roughly 600k anyway. Title: 5 more players please Post by: magicroundabout on Monday, August 20, 2007, 22:03:04 obviously were not going to go in all guns blazing on this one so a cheeky £125k bid is enough to show them were serious cos as someone pointed out he's out of contract in 9 months so they can't and wont hold out for too much.
as for MK bidding i think is laughable considering they are in the same league so why would he sign for them? Personally i think maybe £300k would snap him up or maybe £400k. If we spend this on him and maybe a couple of extra players (Holmes + 1 other) then i'll have to buy me a new keyboard cos my buttons willllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll :wink: Title: 5 more players please Post by: Spencer_White on Tuesday, August 21, 2007, 11:46:46 Quote from: "Rich" Quote from: "herthab" I would be surprised if MK bid that much.

But the money vanished into thin air. |
