Summer window

Would fit what Tone wants, experience and a dedicated CM. Only another injury away from a massive issue in the CM department.

 

Yeah he has issues with his hips so cant play much in a week. Be a good squad player tho

 

Solid experienced and very very defensive midfielder
Seems to fit the bill but I fear he would end up on the treatment table more than the pitch.
Saying that don't suppose the club would sign him if they didn't think he was fit.

 

We have enough problems with injuries as it is. We certainly don't need someone we're going to have to nurse.

 

Perhaps it's our reputation as a caring (or nursing) club that is an attraction for players?
Nothing wrong with that.

 

I don't think he would need nursing if he is being used when needed instead of each game. Should be fine. It's when it's Saturday Wednesday Saturday and he is asked to play all 3 , is when he seems to have the bother. Won't the the case here.

 

Nothing wrong with being a caring club as long as we don't become a nursing home for crocked players.

 

That would be my fear he’s had some strange injuries kept him sidelined for a long time at Leeds for 5 years only played about 80 games

 

Hope you're right mate.

 

With Stansfield it looks like we were in for him, but as soon as an option to stay closer to home came up, he chose that ahead of us. Whether he turned us down to go to Birmingham or we pulled out because it became clear he didn't really want to come here, it'll come out in the end. But the thing is we can't force players to sign and having been stung in the past with players who were here under sufferance, it's better to let them go than sign them and then have them be disruptive or not committed and try and land the ones who go want to be here. But some of our fans just seem to want to ignore that and use it to beat the club with.

 

It’s unbelievable what comes out of some folks mouths I’m incredulous at times,I think as a club we’ve learned lessons of the past onwards and upwards

 

So no signings today, assume we are stuck with the same team as last week with a Roberts replacement.

 

It's only lunchtime so unless they've all knocked off and gone to the boozer there's still plenty of time.

 

And there we go...the best form of humour....which will slide of the head of some that your being serious!

 

Good point but it is Friday and we’ve missed the match day squad deadline

 

So what you're saying is that they've all gone to the pub!

 

O'Nien t-shirt anyone?

 

Imagine if Rusyn had signed on Monday and trained all week but we don't announce it till tonight and he plays tomorrow. Just to piss Coventry off

 

I think there's a few teams out there that would like to be "stuck with" what we've got
