Don’t know anything about the lad, got to be honest I hadn’t heard of him 72 hours ago. Surely though he can’t be any worse than the pedestrian crap we’ve got in the midfield at the moment. Get him straight in the first team in place of Power, Scowen or Leadbitter for the Wimbledon game.
Johnson won't have brought him in to pad out the squad, we already have enough midfield players. Johnson will already know where he's playing Winchester and they'll be bringing that into training sessions. I think outgoings will be as important as incomings in this window. After hearing Winchester, and his previous supporters and club, I have a good feeling about this.

Max Power's style of play is not diving into tackles, talk about damning with faint praise True like, he doesn't do enough. Some credit due for his long shots but not much comes from it in reality.
Yeah - that was the main reason I posted it. Strange really considering how his first few games went, he was diving into tackles and picking up red cards left right and centre.
and seemingly banging in the goals from distance.. but he only got 4 in his first season, 2 last season and 3 this, but zero assists so far which is more telling. grant has 4 goals and no assists scowen has nowt & nowt so maybe Winchester will replace the latter? further up the pitch is more telling Hume: 0 goals, 1 assist O'Nien: 1 goal, 0 assists Diamond: 1 goal, 2 assists (in 7) McGeady: 1 goal, 1 assist (in 4) Gooch: 2 goals, 4 assists Maguire: 3 goals, 3 assists Wyke: 7 goals, 0 assists Grigg, Graham & O'Brien - ****ing nowt
Nisbet in the paper saying he’s flattered by are Interest, but it is won’t distract him in the window, and what ever happens, happens
Reading between the lines with Graham missing today entirely - could he be on way out? I think you said there were L1 clubs potentially in for him? that would be superb.
Graham and Dobson going will free up some and they can get round it with bonuses etc we offer him. We would not be bidding for him if we did not think his wages would fit in with the current wage restrictions
