I didn’t say older players weren’t capable, just that a 34yr old Matty Lund doesn’t fit the “midfield destroyer” role. He liked to get stuck in, but remember him being more of a ball playing CM player.

[WonderGoals]

If we do go after a midfield destroyer, not sure a 34yr old lund fits the bill.

Butler gave Louis Jones his debut at Donny Rovers.

“He played his first League game in the 2-1 Doncaster win over Portsmouth on 2 March 2021 as Andy Butler took over managing the team.”

26yrs old, but not a lot of experience under his belt.

Whoever he is, he looks exotic. Maybe he’s from Kathmandu ?

No idea. As of yet there isn’t one soul who was recognised any of the trialists.

I counted 6 too. There is one young lad looks south american and is about 5ft tall. Looks tiny.

Ewing from what I read yesterday was described as a more technical Clunan type player, not exactly a destroyer, but came across to me as he was clunan’s replacement.

The new CB I believe is a direct replacement for Max. I can’t see him signing, if he was he would have by now. We’ll probably sign a CB on loan with the new guy and Evans been number one pairing.

Apart from a GK, RB and a loan CB, I think that’s us ready.

I liked him last season. I thought for a young lad he looked assured and never really ever looked flustered.

I think they’re after loaning him to a league club, aren’t they ?.

I’m sure I read something last season mentioning his parent club wanting to test him at a much higher level a.k.a, football league.

Turan was top scorer in the Maltese 3rd division last season. Turan will be moving to Bayern Munich before long.

Future Harry Kane replacement ?

[WonderGoals]

Oli Ewing on football manager is akin to a pound shop Kevin De Bruyne. Get that promotion buss ready !

I expected those replies. I expect nothing more from these dinosaurs. Having a dig at me is most likely their highlight of their week. I can’t imagine sitting there watching re runs of time team while soiling themselves is much fun.

“I will however say clips can be more than a bit deceiving”

Self explanatory.

[WonderGoals]

Plays mainly ACM, but can also play out wide. Played well at Chorley last season before his loan ended according to chorley fans on twitter a.k.a X. I suspect we may have him on trial, as he was rumoured to have come into the club a week or two ago.

I’d sign him personally. Good age, powerful/well built, quick, pretty versatile and looks to be a bit of a tricky player. I will however say clips can be more than a bit deceiving, but he did do well last season at Chorley on loan.

I can’t imagine him wanting a massive amount in wages either.

[WonderGoals]

I wouldn’t think too much into it. Horton has come in to replace Kelly.

[WonderGoals]

Were we even in for Hawkins ?

I stick to that.

You also wrote “many other qualities”. Like what other qualities ?. Shot stopping, coming for crosses ?

I agree with you on distribution, but he was nowhere near some of our other gk’s in terms of “these other qualities”. I fear you maybe getting a little carried away.

Certainly the best GK I’ve seen here as regards distribution along with many other qualities too.

I wouldn’t go that far. Joe Murphy, Luke Daniels, Lionel Perez and Mussy back in the day were all better. A very, very good GK though.

[WonderGoals]

We need another LB, GK, DCM, LW, RB. Starbuck I’m unsure about and Barrows is still crocked. I wouldn’t mind Rose back on another loan and another CB if Kouogun doesn’t sign.

[WonderGoals]

If somebody told me at the end of last season that we would re-sign Whitehall and Roberts and lose Clunan, I would have snapped their hand off.

I don’t blame him for going back there with all the travelling he was having to do and missing out on his child. Fairly play to him, he did what was needed and got us up.

I think we need a more combative type in there anyway. I suspect Clunan may have gotten bullied in the National League.

[WonderGoals]

I think I read a while back he was travelling to Scunthorpe from where he lives.

[WonderGoals]

If it that proves to be true, that would be incredible news.

[WonderGoals]

That’s what’s on twitter and something that he’s heard. I can’t see him being that far off the mark to get that wrong.

Slocombe is 37yr old now and hasn’t played many games of late. We won’t be going in for him, surely ?

[WonderGoals]

Eze will be more ready for first team than Fishburn was as he played 20 odd games for Chorley and scored a few before leaving for Halifax. Kouhyar would be clearly ready for the first team though.

Who says we’re not in for him ?. We may be trying to sign him behind the scenes. Kouhyar may even be seen as Roberts replacement because I can’t for the life of me see him signing as he’s been linked with Wigan Athletic.

Would people be happy with him potentially replacing Roberts ?

[WonderGoals]

He’s a unit. Well built. Looks like a smaller Adama Traore.

Oh god. That gave me chills remembering him. Turan.

Terrible.

[WonderGoals]

Comes from Bolton’s reserves, played for Chorley then went to Halifax on loan. Looks decent from clips, but saying that…most players do.
