  • 14 years between debut and 2nd appearance might be a new record.

    Will have to check the Linvoy Primus stats.

    @shirty5 ?
    Linvoy was way 16 years (ish) although he played 4 games in his first spell.

    Kin ell , if we get  Arter there’s a small chance my face would break in to a smile , just briefly 
    I may just stop snarling.

    Oh by the way, you didn't mean Kinsella was coming back and just missed a couple of letters out did you? now that would be amazing!

  • That Cawley's a top journo. Not only does he find out that Arter's joining us but also that he's combining playing for us with taking a degree in economics and international relations at the University of London. 
    bloody part timer

    Arter would be brilliant in league one in my opinion

    @Dazzler21. Can I get a positive place on the list? Despite a few people dismissing it. I called this.

    As a player he is just what we need and as a left footer it means that we will have an alternative set piece taker.

    Why couldn't Arter and Lee signed earlier? Really buzzing about these two signings. 
    Dazzler is enjoying a self-imposed ban break. I also believe he burned the list in a fiery pit.

  • Arter in league one 🥵
  • Arter, Gilbey and Lee would be a solid midfield for this level.

    Dobson, Watson, Clare and Morgan as back up. JFC to return in the new year.

    Guess it means we won't be going for Lowery and Dempsey then? Although i'd personally take advantage of them wanting to leave their clubs and still try to go for one of them.
  • Arter in league one 🥵

    If he stays on the pitch, he will boss it.

    Arter would be quality. Cultured midfielder, comfortable on the ball, brilliant tekkers. Exactly what we need.

    Arter would be a great signing, he will be quality in league 1. Good experience and a deep lying playmaker which is what we desperately need. A midfield of Gilbey/Arter/Lee will do well in this league. 
  • Arter would be decent.  Still not 100% sure Gilbey is good enough to be part of a promotion challenging midfield.  He got a few goals under Adkins last season when he came in, but I still need to see a lot more than the 10 or so games.  I can’t tell one way or the other if he’s good enough yet

    Perhaps because their respective clubs only wanted to release them once they had finally sorted their squads and they had to wait 'til a suitable replacement was found. 

    As I said a few weeks ago, it's the right signings at the right time. How many have we signed previously on loan who have hardly kicked a ball in anger for us but we are still stuck with them and can't sign anyone else because of that? The names Levitt, Smith, Smith, Smyth, Davis, Kayal and Ledley spring to mind. 
  • Cawley seems less ITK than some of the guys on here nowadays.

    Don't know much about Arter but sounds good to me.
  • edited August 2021
    I am not convinced we will play Arter/Gilbey/Lee and if we do it won't be in the 4231 we have been playing.

    Will we be good enough to play 4141? 

    I mean out of choice not "doing a job"

    Probably their own clubs seeing who came in and who would be surplus to requirements rather than anything our end.

    To be fair, Gallen/Adkins/etc have been maintaining all window things would improve towards the death. They just might know what they were talking about after all.

  • Haven't seen Arter play for a few years now, but he would have needed to regress massively to not be a lot better than what we already have.
  • If we are in for Arter he is more a DM that must mean we still want another CM but a more creative one aswell due to the dempsey connections and also people like CEL saying we really like and want lowery...

    if we got 2 of them a Lb and St now we are talking !

  • If we are signing Arter that will be a quality midfield. I like the loan as well as not sure why he hasnt been playing at Forest. Legs gone maybe ?
  • just need to get Taylor back from them and we’d be good to go!

    Just over 15 years. Primus made 6 not 4 appearances in his first spell with the club 
  • This is a signing that I like the sound of not just because I like the player , but it shows someone so where is seeing the same as us. Resigning Watson was clearly a mistake and from the little we have seen so far of Dobson he just lacks a bit of quality
