Transfer Rumours In and Out

Surely if Mawson was close to signing he would have been given the number 5 shirt. Looks like we might be giving Forino a go.

 

Birmingham are wanting to sign him so no chance we'll get him.

 

The thing is does Mawson want to play in a struggling team at the wrong end of the Championship, after the season they had last year Bowyer could be gone in weeks if they don't start well

 

MK DONS SET TO BEAT PORTSMOUTH AND WYCOMBE WANDERERS IN TRANSFER RACE FOR 15-GOAL STRIKER
MK Dons are set to recruit Cambridge United forward Sam Smith for a six-figure fee, according to an update from journalist Alan Nixon.

He played all 90 mins when we beat them 3-0 and he came off the bench when we beat them 4-1

Doesn't seem a great loss based purely on that

 

That does not seem like us antway paying a fee for somebody

 

Wanderers have made their second new signing of the summer, bringing former Manchester United striker D’Mani Mellor to Adams Park following his release from Old Trafford.

 

Could be the gem find of the season, probably start with the development squad and then move up.

 

He must have a decent work ethic and plays CF different to what we have

 

Christie Ward has signed, a promising youngster who will probably go into the development squad and hopefully get a few chances in the first team.

i must say I’m hugely impressed with Sam Grace and his ability to pluck potential gems from nowhere.

 

When are we going to sign a keeper? There's less than 3 weeks before we play Burton.

 

Now I know why we are playing at Brock on the 22nd

 

.

 

Apart from 1 maybe 2 keepers, do you think we are set for the season?
Team to start at the moment,
Dickinson
McCarthy. Forino. Taff. JJ
Scowen. Wing
McCleary. Mehmeti Horgan
Vokes

or
Dickinson
Forino. Taff. JJ
Grimmer. Obita
Scowen. Wing
McCleary.
Hanlan. Vokes

id be happy with either of these.

 

Spacing didn’t work on that. Either 4-4-2 or 5-2-1-2

 

As you say Cardiff either of those teams is a reasoable first X1 the problem will come with injuries & bookings that's why we need back up

 

Totally agree. Especially at the back.

 

Depends how good Dickinson is. He was our 4th choice wasn't he? And how good Bishop is

What about our new signings and those that for some reason didn't play last season. Are they not up to it?

 

I would say to give them a chance, except I would have loved to see an experienced replacement for Stewart with Forino as backup or playing as part of a back 3.

 

We've signed 19 year old goalkeeper Josh Blunkell after he impressed on trial in pre season friendlies.

 

Thjat's probably trialist A from Friday evening
