I dunno, what do you reckon? Sounds like he could be decent once he gets fully fit. Does this mean Ince has knocked us back or are we still in the hunt?

[PHIL!!!!]

Hopefully we still have enough funds/space to squeeze Ince in, but we now do have: Wise, Poyet, Whalley, Pook, Weston and Evans to fill that centre midfield role....Granted, Wise and Poyet wont play that often, but that still leaves us with 4 other centre mids....Plus other players like Gurney, Platt etc can play there too....

Evans needs to improve his fitness first and foremost, he looked very fat against Reading.

If we are to sign Ince then i think Poyet wont feature at all this season and Wise will only play if desperate.
Whalley is out for 2 months at least don't forget.

Once Evans gets himself up to finess the way the rest of the team have then he could be a decent signing.

To me this spells the end of any hope to sign Ince, which is a shame obviously.

Ince will be brought in, but only in a coaching role!FACT

But he's stated he wants to play this season. Ergo, TOSH

i think Ince is on his way tbh. looks an OK signing but he does need to get fitter. looked average against the plastic scum

On his way where Rich??? He's obviously on his way somewhere isn't he???

Evans has a decent pedigree and is defo the sort of thing we need, but he looked way short of fitness on Saturday......could be Gareth Whalley mark 2.

[red macca]

wise will get him fit and i hope he will be a usefull addition to the squad..its good that we are starting to get cover in this area as it is definatly a area where we have suffered for a long time now

still need another wide man imo

That's an understatement. He got done several times - not just for pace but for sharpness on the ball - and badly needs to get fit.

I'm not convinced this is a good signing. Reckon he'll spend most of the season in the reserves to be honest.

 I was hoping that Whalley would get fit, but with some of these journeymen, the years of getting kicked and accumulating injuries finally catches up with them, and they can't do any better.....which is why they go from higher divisions commanding fees to being in L2 on frees.

   As the manager at STFC, you're limited by finance to gamble on this type, at least its only a year.

Not bad, not bad at all.

Fat and experienced like that one Rooney liked to nobble.

In all seriousness it’s another experienced head and another addition to the squad.  If he can get himself back to a level he was at before he was injured then we’ll be laughing.
