PH has raised his bar somewhat in this window because of the quality and ability of the players already here, the disadvantage of this is that the players he has targeted are also of interest to our competitors and don't come easily, anyone can sign shirt fillers

Henderson would be a superb signing at this level. He's born in Doncaster so I'm guessing he doesn't want to move far. Could be our Jon Parkin and in games against the likes of FGR and Cheltenham, his experience could be crucial.

Just been contacted by a mate up here who heard on 5 live transfer deadline that Darius Henderson will sign for Town next week after being paid up by Scunny!

Fingers crossed that this happens, might explain why the club announced no more signings earlier this evening!

Keep the faith.

You said you expected us to compete, we are competing. We've needed a good target man since LJL left and PH has failed miserably to get one in. However, we loaned a good player in Jones before, we loaned a good player in Palmer last season so there is no reason we can't find similar. Mackreth barely got a look in this season so do we really need a replacement? Ideally I'd like us to get another quality winger but we've done okay with what we've got so far this season. But the quality required maybe wasn't available, was asking too much or wouldn't relocate here, we don't know.

I'm sure the management is bothered about the two above, I'm sure he's worked very hard to get quality players in and it hasn't worked. There may be a multitude of factors for this but I don't believe for one second that he's not got them in cause he isn't arsed about winning the league and I think it's ridiculous to suggest as such.


Yes because Monkhouse isn't the same player now Townsend has gone and Arnold is on a poor run of form and their replacement is basically very poor.

Quoted from barralad


I cannot make my mind up whether you are pot boiling or serious! What actual evidence is there that Hurst and co. have given up on the title/


Please read it again Barra - I  said it feels like it.

Obviously the manager has tried to make signings but he has failed. I don't accept the excuses about waiting for players and the rest of it and I don't just blame the manager for the perception. It's only fair to judge him at the end of the season.

That was my point. It's a club thing. Once again we look for all the world like the poor relations who can't afford that final investment. A big club? I always thought so and especially after OP last summer. But I should have known better. The club appears destined to continue trying to make silk purses. We have the best side on the park that we have had for several years. All it needed was a bit more quality and ......

I'll carry on supporting and offering my prayers to the football gods every match day but I really do think we needed to be more proactive.

Not sure, if his contract has been paid up I would of thought he could join straight way.
