    Aye. Jones seems a really good fit. Him and a fit Gooch would not half chance the pace.

    Oh aye it makes perfect sense, good planning for the reasons you gave. It's decent football over there but they don't have the money.

    thing is, i think we all 'like' maguire but as has been said we simply cannot carry him for the amount of games he fails to turn up...which is a shame for him more than anything as i believe if he put the effort in to be consistent he could have been seen as at least a championship player, on his day a match winner.

    have a feeling grigg is away, just waiting for a decision elsewhere...hope he goes and he finds his 'mojo' again and returns on fire.

    other than that, LJ and the new backroom staff give me a lot more confidence than most, if not all, that have been replaced over the past 10 years and beyond mainly as they are not running around like headless chickens trying to appease the fans by shoe-horning any fecker in...the wage cap most likely plays a part here as well but even then, there does not seem the same 'panic in the ranks'.

    Unreal signing if we get him.

    Of the twenty out of contract he won’t lose much sleep about Matthews, McClaughlin, Leadbitter, Power, Maguire, McGeady or Graham. Can see him wanting to keep Scowen, Diamond, Embleton, O’Nien, Willis and Wyke.

    One way or another we are in for a very exciting summer of transfers

    The bloke thinks league one is full of open attacking play and not scrappy. Send him a video of our last two games.

    Jordan Jones, big step up on the quality of previous attacking signings since we dropped into league 1. Hopefully he stays fit.

    I still think Maguire has a role to play this season.

    Especially given the number of games in a short period and the fact we can use 5 subs

    Really good signing for this level and completely out the blue. I think we’re really desperate for a left back though, hoping we can get one over the line.

    Looks like he has a bit of arrogance about him as well, so won’t be scared to ruffle a few feathers amongst the sh*t housing teams in this league. Could be exactly what we need.

    A winger? He or may not be a good player, I haven't a clue...but a winger?

    Need a LB, Striker and creative midfielder

    We all know these highlight reels can make the worst of players look like Messi but at the very least he is pacy and skillful and my Rangers friends think he is great. This could be the signing that ignites our season....

    I think we'll bring in a striker and left back before the window closes. Can't see much more than that. I'd be happy with that

    Jones and Gooch behind the inform O’Brien and Wyke and we’re a threat on the break with other options on the bench. I do think we need to lose a couple Maguire and Graham being the obvious ones but we also seem to have one too many in midfield to help the likes of Neil play and one too many options for right back.

    McGeady will be gone in the summer methinks. Good planning getting this lad in. Looks like the striker is sorted and I would imagine a LB will be incoming as well.

    What has pleased me is the deals appear to have been virtually completed prior to the press getting hold of anything. To the best of my knowledge we were not linked to any of these players.
