Summer Rumours

As luck would have it mexijan "Oliver" is currently playing at the Theatre Royal. You never know but I've a feeling that unlike the musical story this may not have a happy ending..........
 
Anymore players and we will be able to field three seperate teams.......there must be an awful amount of chaff in that lot.
 
Chaff..... maybe? There are a lot of youngsters in the squad and a few, really just there to make the numbers up, are a season or 2 short of being ready for bit parts let alone full season. A couple of long term injuries and the team will be really short of experience on top of all it´s other short comings.
 
Carl Fletcher tried to bring in Alex MacDonald for a second spell at Argyle during the summer but couldn't agree terms.

It is possible that he will be playing tonight for Burnley.....MacDonald has only played once this season as a late sub against Huddersfield when they lost 2-0.

Sods law will obviously mean that he will play a blinder against us and score the winning goal.
 
Presumably it was that that led to Fletcher's comments about inflated wage expectations in League 2.

What interests me is: "We need to bring players in and we need to get rid of players"

I thought we were supposed to have a squad with the correct attitude etc etc, so who does he have in mind? I'm afraid I still have my doubts over Purse's commitment to such a remote & lowly club. There was the out-of-character red card that kept him at home over the Christmas period and I don't believe he was at the last game of last season, despite the fact there was the Player of the Season presentation to his partner Blanchard after the game. Now we have the previously undisclosed injury that led to him be subbed off on Saturday.

There's an entirely unsubstantiated rumour for you.
 
Carl Fletcher is rumoured to be hoping to bring in new players before the deadline.

He also wants to "ship out" players as well.......who the hell will want any of Fletchers cast-offs.....the only chance from what I see is to loan out some of his first year pro's to SW non-league clubs.
 
And there are rumours that a couple of them are set to go plym. I find it difficult to believe that Fletcher signed both Chadwick and Feeney back on the books such a short time ago, got in several new strikers after that, and is now talking about more. We need somebody in midfield to supply the strikers we have with some decent opportunities not more people to stand around waiting for one to come along. I think that Griffiths, when he starts, and Cowan-Hall will score goals. No other reason than gut feeling but I do believe they will. A decent supply to them would be nice and help them along the way.
 
Alex MacDonald is all the talk again on other websites....they say he is on the way back.....although Fletcher admits that they could not come to an agreement with him.
 
The closing of the transfer window is not a problem according to Fletcher,so he is saying don't expect anyone coming in.

When the loan window opens in a weeks time will interest Fletcher more,Premier and Championship clubs will know their squads by then and will be loaning out fringe players.

If Fletcher is still interested in MacDonald that might be when the possibility of bringing him back to Home Park might arise, for a second loan period. Burnley fans didn't seem to take to him calling him fat.

Tomorrows result against Northampton will obviously be important regarding how many loans Fletcher will try for.
 
Alex MacDonald returns for eight games starting this Saturday.

Obviously wouldn't commit himself for any longer to start with mexijan......if all goes well he might be tempted for longer.
 
Or Burnley want too much? At 22 I would think he will be looking for a transfer as he is not getting regular football there and doesn´t look like he will. Feeney or Chadwick out on loan/sold and that will be the forwards sorted for the season......hopefully.
MacDonald
Griffiths
PCH
LeCointe
Feeney/Chadwick
Simms - more attacking midfield

Has potential but who knows.......fingers crossed at the mo
 
I'm definately not unhappy with this signing. He did ok last term and knows the club already so no fitting in time. Pity not for the season but it's early days yet. Will watch this space with interest now.
