Sign him up.
January 4, 2021 at 3:48 pm #200225Is he surplus to requirements?
Is he fit?
Is he match fit?January 4, 2021 at 4:31 pm #200229Proven goalscorer at this level
January 4, 2021 at 5:01 pm #2002303 goals this season, 13 last season. I wonder if people are still thinking of the same Tom Pope.
Either way, I wouldn’t want him on a contract beyond the end of the current season.
January 4, 2021 at 5:10 pm #200233I agree Ferrite, but if he’s contracted until summer at Vale then a short term contract here would seem unlikely.
January 4, 2021 at 7:21 pm #200242Could be a loan. Then it is up to him to show he is worth an offer. Very competitive and ability to hold the ball.
Would be good to put him and Harry Jessop together.
January 4, 2021 at 7:22 pm #200243Mike White said on Twitter that Cox said there is nothing in it, though we were interested in the summer.
January 4, 2021 at 7:32 pm #200244As I said on the Loft thread, Cox is keen but as it stands it’s unlikely to happen. He nearly came in the summer but we couldn’t get it over the line. Shares agent with Cox.
January 4, 2021 at 7:53 pm #200247We’d need THE POPE and his mate upstairs to get us scoring!
January 4, 2021 at 8:27 pm #200250Pope is the right pedigree of player we should be chasing rather the likes of Mooney, Jarvis and Turan.
Highly unlikely there will be any transfer activity now given the latest lockdown measures though

Amateur sport is cancelled so I doubt we will be able to carry on. Don’t think we could convince anyone we are elite sport.
January 4, 2021 at 8:54 pm #200255Hopefully they will end the season and we won’t get relegated and town will 🙂
January 4, 2021 at 8:58 pm #2002566 weeks off will certainly do us no end of favours in terms of getting key players back. Presuming the club can also claim furlough for that period ?
January 4, 2021 at 9:01 pm #200257Football is more important than life or death.
January 4, 2021 at 9:02 pm #200258Pro football isn’t finishing at the moment is it.

Can’t see how we’d afford it.
January 4, 2021 at 9:09 pm #200261If we can somehow,
Out
Vincent
Cordner
Dales
Butroid
Taylor
Watson (Needs game time)In
Pope
Nightingale
KaracanGood January as far as I’m concerned
January 4, 2021 at 9:52 pm #200264Karacan is in the building!
If Watson goes you just know that by the law of sod Howard will get injured!
January 4, 2021 at 10:15 pm #200265Hopefully they will end the season and we won’t get relegated and town will
Don’t know what the ruling is ( if any ) but if the season were to end now I doubt promotion of relegation issues could be fairly worked out on less then half a season played.
January 4, 2021 at 11:42 pm #200267If we move Dales, Butroid on and send back Cordner…that may be enough to get Pope. Vincent isn’t coming back either I don’t think, so, that’s another wage saved.
There may just be enough to get Nightingale as well. Ideally we’d need another striker to go with pope but that’s not half bad business.
January 5, 2021 at 2:26 pm #200295Whatever happened to one month loan deals?
An experienced striker and centre back would be ideal as they would not be breaking the bank and gives us the back up we need until manny, Mcgahey and Van Veen are close to returning

FA scraped the loan window outside of the Summer and Winter window.
January 5, 2021 at 2:57 pm #200298Are we not able to sign a player on a one month deal during January?

Wouldn’t really help come February though. A bit more flexibility would definitely help clubs at the minute though.
January 5, 2021 at 4:36 pm #200305Mcgahey and Van Veen are close to returning
Van Veen is nowhere near. Mcgahey back end of this month but Van Veen is back end of Feb. Cox said so last week.
January 5, 2021 at 5:57 pm #200316Burney, I think you’ve misread CBRGs quote in Keadby Iron’s post. Either that or you’re guilty of a selective misquote.
January 5, 2021 at 9:51 pm #200332Never mix Skol Super and this messageboard, they don’t mix too well.
January 15, 2021 at 2:50 pm #200922Guthrie 6ft 3in striker gone to port vale, that could open the door for Pope to come to Scunny.
January 15, 2021 at 3:00 pm #200924Don’t think so, quote from their local paper:-
“The club went into this month’s window looking for a striker, but that became more urgent when Tom Pope was injured in Tuesday’s Papa John’s Trophy game at Sunderland.”
One thing we’re not short of is injured strikers.
January 15, 2021 at 4:12 pm #200927Suppose its better he gets injured now then the first match he plays for us.
