Pringle Moves to Tranmere

Whether he jumped or was pushed doesn't really matter. Talented player, but just not mobile enough for either League 2 or the way MJ wants the team to play, which is looking like wing backs and high energy. Needs a different formation and players to do the things he can't around him. If you do that, he has to produce goals and chances to earn a place. I liked him but he's one piece of the jigsaw that looks like it doesn't quite fit. He brought a bit of footballing nous, but ultimately didn't reach the heights i was hoping he would.

Good luck to him all the same.

Too much of a side, back and across the field passer for me, the style of team that Jolly wants would make him redundant most of the time, no worries from me.
If I had to choose between an experience player like him and young Harry Clifton I would choose Harry speaks volumes for me, I do think however he will suit Tranmere in more ways than one

Very disappointed to see him move on. He's a very good and clever footballer. You need many attributes within a team to be successful. You don't need a goalkeeper and ten runners, Pringle is a technical footballer with a wand of a left foot and an intelligent footballing brain. I don't know why he has left as the club hasn't said, so I must speculate.

I don't necessarily buy the argument that we are now playing 3-5-2 and he won't fit into the formation. We've tried that formation at least a couple of times and it hasn't worked, we've had to change back. His delivery from dead balls and in play is levels ahead what we have. We'll miss the balance he gives us. I think there was more to come and it looks like Tranmere may benefit as he'll leave us a much fitter player than when he arrived.

Dunno.

Disappointed, best footballer at the club

Quoted from chipsandgravy

His body language never convinced me that he had never quite signed up for Mariners.

Overall I would have to agree, when I first saw him I thought he was a bit lightweight  but then when he had a run in the side I thought he became quite an important part of the team, at Northampton I thought he had an outstanding game.

However in recent weeks I thought he was going backwards and his contribution in some games was lacking.

Good luck to the guy (apart from when we play Tranmere) and let's hope we can add to the side with someone who may take on defenders a bit more.

Big surprise. I get the formation thing, but we can't be planning on playing it for every minute of every game for the rest of the season. But then again, it'd be a big chunk of wage bill sat on the bench - I hope this saving will be used to bring in someone else.

Is he going to be here next year? Very doubtful. So look at it as a positive that every pound saved on his wage is a pound that could go towards someone that might be a regular in next year’s squad.

Let’s be honest - were not going up and unlikely to go down, so Jolley’s doing the right thing in getting sorted sooner rather than later.

As my previous thread i never see what was that great about him tbh.
He could put a cross in but the left side was always weak when he played with Fox having a torrid time trying to do the defensive work his self, now Fox i am sorry to lose. 100% from the lad.
