did he get booked for diving a lot ?robinofottershaw said:T.C.E said:"Archie Edwards" now that is a proper footballers name.
I always liked the name "Albert Quickfall" - played for Sheffield Wednesday and then joined man Utd after the Munich air disaster.2 -
No, your thinking of Sheffield Wednesday's Albert Forestierilolwray said:

With the kit being shown this afternoon, I'm praying there is a new player wearing it, wishing thinking but would be good0

Maybe they will annouce it and the signing of Dasilva at the same time.Pelling1993 said:With the kit being shown this afternoon, I'm praying there is a new player wearing it, wishing thinking but would be good

Only Quickdraw and Quicksand (and potentially Quickoffthemark) to go and then we can get this thread back on track. I wish I had not mentioned Albert now.0

Quixote fits Roland rather well.3

Not a rumour but those kids that have been in and around the squad but unlikely to feature, need to go on loan rather than U23s. Umerah, Hanlan, Edwards RCC and Lapslie if Gobbo doesn't realise he is better than at least Crofts. If we get a keeper, Beeney. Suspect KAG Djiksteel and Barnes may feature.1

Martin back training with us according to SLP too.6

All these people quoting Konsa and Lennon as cover at full back. FFS!! Have any of you seen either of them play at fullback? Christ on a bike!! Johnny Jackson with asthma on one leg would be less scary. Neither EK nor HL is as good as Lewis Page and I can think of no lower benchmark, with the dishonourable exception that was Matt Fry, who we got from WetSpam for a terrifying few months who latterly was released by Conference South side Dartford cos he was ill equipped at that level.Redrobo said:
Konsa, Lennon, Barnes, Paige, Solly, and now DaSilva. More than enough cover for a league 1 club and I feel any money would be better spent elsewhere.cantersaddick said:
And I tend to agree. But if DaSilva breaks down early season (he hasn't had a break all summer) we have nothing. And if Solly has his usual 2 months out and Barnes doesn't hit the ground running we are going to struggle. If feel much more comfortable if we brought in someone like chicksen who can cover both sides.Scoham said:
Solly and Barnes doing that will probably be enough from RDs point of view.cantersaddick said:With page out for a significant time we basically have 1 rb and 1 lb in the squad. I think we still need an experienced utility full back who can cover both sides...
Cover for both FB's is urgently required.13 -
Some of the youngsters are being looked at until the end of August, to see if they are going on loan or staying with the first team squad.harveys_gardener said:Not a rumour but those kids that have been in and around the squad but unlikely to feature, need to go on loan rather than U23s.

If they go on loan it's also important it's the right move for them. They'll be there a minimum of half a season. Not like a few years back when they could go for a month and extend if the player does well.Redhenry said:

An excellent point. And I'm glad that they're being given pre-season to show what they're capable of.Scoham said:

Martin back training with us apparently.3

Haha. The club prefer sending the kids to non league clubs because they can be recalled quicker.4

Could not diasagree more. Barnes and Paige are the main players to cover and we have two others than can cover at a pinch. Are you saying that two backs are more important to the team right now than a No10/Striker?StigThundercock said:

If you had to choose 2 new positions to be filled, which ones? (Not GK as we all know that needs filling).2 -
That's a consequence of abolishing emergency loans. Previously we could have sent say KAG or RCC to Barnet for a month or two, knowing that we could recall him if we had injuries. Now any loans to league clubs have to be between transfer windows, making them much more of a long term commitment for both sides.Redhenry said:Haha. The club prefer sending the kids to non league clubs because they can be recalled quicker.
I assume these rules don't apply to National League clubs?1 -
If Martin is training with us, can we assume one way or another he is a done deal?2

Might be about to sign extension.....
