And yet he's a bargain bin signingI truly hope to be proven wrong and I’ve bought my season ticket so I’ll be there to see it either way but I can see another poor season ahead.
Maybe we have no money so a poor League 2 players is the best we can do. Or perhaps we’ve properly scouted a player who’s a stand out in a struggling team, we’ve had a few of those ourselves over the years.
I can see why some default to the former but maybe the truth is somewhere in between… at least it’s a sign we’re trying to find undervalued players rather than Gallen having a chat with his mate at Palace about a player who used to be decent.
Plucked from League 2, just like MK Dons did with Darling at the same time Bowyer said there weren’t any good CBs out there. It’s not such a big step up that he can’t be good enough for a team challenging for promotion. Let’s see what happens before writing him off as a lower league no hoper.

Can he rugby tackle like his Cousin Paul and Jason Pearce ?6 -
If we’re going by stats, then this is a good signing and I’m hoping more of the same calibre through the door.0

Right so TS delayed things to try and not pay compensation and then Swindon said to him, tell you what as we cant agree a deal for you to go and be a coach at CAFC why dont you have a go at managing 😂😂😂
Beyond pathetic !!

That's exactly what we needed. A 25-28 center back that can play a bit, is able to play 40 odd games a season and is a potential captain. Has goals in his locker.
I'll be honest, wasn't one of the names I was given this morning. But I still think at least one of them is close enough to be a done deal and will be announced tomorrow.
The Swindon news may have delayed or stopped the other one, for now.
I also think a u23 left back, on loan is in the works.18 -

From what I remember of Rochdale in League One though, Brian Barry-Murphy (their Manager) had them playing a decent style of Football, think its what cost them their league status really as they just didnt have the all round quality.
Barry-Murphy must have been rated though, as he's now Man City's U23 Manager0 -

The sort of football which probably works better in a PL academy environment where you're trying to nurture flair1 -

Moses Odubajo leaving QPR, attacking right back, would suit us, Greenwich born, 28 decent experience and CV. Not a rumour.2

Switch the O’Connell chat to the other thread now please, cheers5

Reading - Championship
Wednesday - L1
Bournemouth - L1 playoffs
Dagenham - star player in a relegated L1 team
Oldham - L1
I'm not knocking O'Connell or any Swindon players we might sign, but there's a difference between the Powell signings and the L2 players that we seem to be linked with at the moment.

Only thing I dont like about Moses is he's injury prone... Hasnt played that many games the last few years.
I'd sign him though... IF... we had a situation like what we should have had with Lewis Page at the start of 2018/19, where we'd be comfortable resting him on a regular basis, because we know we've someone else who can slot easily into his place.
And dont have to worry about Moses breaking after a run of 10-games say.
Maybe thats where Sean Clare comes into the team, as feels like we're sticking to 3-5-2 at the moment.0
