Quoted from ginnywings
Just heard from a couple of people he has been training/trialling with us. Ollie confirmed we currently have 2 on trial. Craig Davies is a big powerful forward, who has played at a decent level, and has commanded fees in the past. He's 34 and had injury problems, so it's going to be down to how much he has left in the tank i would imagine. That is the extent of my knowledge.


I think we have already got a big powerful forward who is coming on to 34 with injury problems.

Do we need another one.?

might be just the opposite Pete; with Hanson and Green unavailable, Ollie doesn't want to rely on his project strikers, so he goes for experience instead?

From previous posts from Ginny I think it’s pretty clear he neither works for town or lives overlooking the Cheapside training ground so not sure how the hell you expect him to be highly informed on our trial it’s!!!


WHOOOOSH!

The French lad ex Norwich should fit in well, doesn't appear to know where the net is and makes some of our current lot look experienced.

If he's offered terms it looks like Holloway is simply going down the same line again More clubs than Tony Jacklin (at just 23) and even less career goals than our current strikeforce

Surely theres an experienced journeyman striker out there looking for a game until May

Just realised the joke Golly was having with my posts. In my defence, I have no knowledge whatsoever of the recording career of Craig David. Had to look it up when the penny dropped.

And that reflects very well on your character Ginny. 😆


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
