And for anyone underestimating the power of geography, this is a fella that left a huge club like Bradford City to sign for Crawley Town when they were a league below Bradford.
If he has an offer from a team down south, he'll be gone. We shouldn't undermine negotiations with other players and the current squad to try and sign a player who obviously wants to go back home.
Thanks Scott and all the best.

Quoted from 75
I disagree.
Marshall doesn't mind running at players but he lacks a final ball and can't finish. Neilson is ten times the player of Marshall IMO. Neilson always looks like he has time on the ball - the sign of a good player. Would be a real blow if we miss out on him but he has a downside too. From the outside looking in, purely from watching him he tried to do too much at times, doesn't release players when he can and what happened when he kicked out and got send off concerns me. But he could well be the best player in the BSP if he chooses to drop down to us or Luton as I don't see any other BSP club having the clout do get him to drop out of the league.
I agree Jase, and probably me thinking now that he is just a little too comfortable on the ball at times, All of the best players have quite a bad attitude though, Messi is an exception.. I just think Marshall is an old school winger who opponents don't know how to combat, but thats just my POV. |

If Scott ends up somewhere else, which I hope he doesn't, then I'm sure The Dynamic Duo have somebody in their sights already. They knew this situation could occur when they signed him and if past actions are anything to go by then they already have somebody in mind.

Hopefully we're not talking, we're doing. But I'd have thought Luton would be favourites to sign him now due to location and they are perhaps the only BSP that can outwedge usJohn unless weJohn will really push the boat out.
There you go |

I agree that Nielson is the better of the 2 players, but I'm sure I saw you at Ebbsfleet, or were you still in the bar when Marshall scored.  |

His poor chairmanship is part of the reason we're down here. He can shell out a bit to rectify it. |

He's technically registered as our player until tomorrow though. Has a big game for us tonight and Buckle is talking about him in a press conference today.
You can bet your bottom dollar that these two wouldn't be talking about any of Luton's loan players, or any other club's players for that matter, in the press on the day of a big game.
Yeah, I can see your point, but I doubt it'll unsettle him as I assume he'll have known of Luton's interest for a while. |

Yeah, agree with many above in that S&H will bring in a quality player to replace him, have mentioned before that I haven't known any of their loan signings being a disappointment (holding my breath with Rankine), and they really do seem to realise the abilities of each player. Great that none of our good players are missing out due to 'not being the manager's cup of tea', as happens in so many teams. Agree with S&H in that attitude can count for more than ability in football.

Agreed - presumably he'll want to play out of his skin tonight to strengthen his hand with all the clubs showing interest. A MOM performance in the offing? |

Maybe if someone takes Artus off our hands in January we can offer Neilson a cracking deal, beyond what Luton could afford. If we can get rid of Elding and use his wages to beat Luton to Jolley that would be hilarious
As I already said in another thread Luton don't even have to offer more money than us, they can offer less because of the location factor. If we want Neilson we have to offer more than Luton just to get him to move here. Its unlikely we can afford to do that or even want to do that. |
