True. Just jaded with the whole thing.


Feel your pain, but Vernam is looking the biz so far and this Leeds lad is highly rated, with a bit of experience of the league. I'm trying to stay positive.

Trying...

You have more moral backbone than me.

Nerr, you're probably right. Haven't seen Vernam yet. Haven't been since Luton before Christmas so don't know how good / bad it is.

On the upside, I met an Israeli this week who'd heard of Town and knew we'd been in the National League. I always thought we were the modern Jews.


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.

Should he be on the naughty or nice list? Is he a Stafford Israeli?

So has Sam Jones got a dose of "transferitis" which has made him unavailable?


If he has the same flu bug I, and many others have had, he will not feel like doing anything for a month. Only silver lining was I missed the last 3 home games so hopefully my return tomorrow will inspire town and we have a well deserved, or even lucky, victory😄😄

Hopefully he can do a job and add some pace. As Ginny said he's been bit part for Accy and it shows how we are struggling when we are signing players that can't get in Accy's side. That doesn't mean he won't be a good signing, I just find it hard to see this as real intent or investment. Him and Vernam will probably improve us, but they are not the established quality that would require investment. What worries me about these young lads is that if they're successful in their loan it will be very unlikely we can sign them permanently and the club has a real history of missing opportunities to sign promising loanees. Wouldn't it be better to try and develop our own players?

Looking at Kayden Jackson and the excellent season he is having just reaffirms my view that Bignot was a disaster. He was excellent here for them the other week and Bignot sent him back early after signing Yussuf. He's the sort of player we could've signed permanently.

Quoted from Les Brechin
Leeds gave him a 4 year deal last year, so they must rate him quite highly.


Hope he's better than our 4 year signing from last season
