Quoted from Chrisblor


No, which is why i'm inferring things from his track record. I'd be delighted for him to make me look like a pessimistic mug.


Me too

Quoted from Chrisblor


Because i'd like us to sign a midfielder with a track record better than 'almost relegated club glad to see the back of him' and 'his brother plays in the premier league'


Why are players signed from 'almost relegated' LEAGUE clubs, who have played a load of games in the football league deemed not as good/exciting as players who have played most of their games at Conference North level or below? Ie Pearson, Hearn, Osbourne, Sam Jones, Bogle, Asante...

I'll leave it to Slade to be a football manager, and i'll stick to my role as supporter - giving a new young player a warm welcome and a fair crack of the whip.

Don O'Riordan springs to mind.
Relegated with us and went on to play in old first division (Premier league)

Oh Grimsby Grimsby
Whatever will be will be
You'll follow then faithfully
Oh Grimsby Grimsby


Tell me Mam me Mam

I'm guessing he's a bit of a runner who isn't perhaps the best with the ball at his feet.

Fair enough for me. Nobody ever claimed Cockerill or Cunnington were the most skilful of midfielders, but they certainly allowed the others to play.

We were badly lacking in pace throughout the squad last season so good to get some in early on. Quite what we're going to do with all our central midfielders, I'm not so sure!

Mixed reports about him but we will
Have to wait and see. Now disley,Comley and gunning all gone, we did need a tough tackling midfielder. He sounds energetic type so hopefully good competition for mccalister? Hopefully wilko can help develop him nicely and at just 22 he's at a good age

Clearly, some of our midfielders are surplus to requirements. There's ages until the new season and footballers go out as well as come in.

Welcome Mitch.

Have you been true to your word?


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause
