So is this Jamie Devitt thing something people has heard or is it just what people want? If Bradford are interested then surely he would sign for them ahead of us?

Thought Devitt only just signed for Blackpool? Why would they send him out on loan, he's not a youngster is he?

The signed him before Grayson was appointed and he doesn't rate him is what the rumours are saying.

Quoted from Madeleymariner
Carlisles player of season last 2 years so cant be too shabby at this level-left for a L1 club. Should be good enough for us.

And 20+ assists at Morecambe the season before.

Quoted from Hagrid

Why surely?

Money and location.

Devitt would benefit our team.  We lack creativity, it's that simple.

Midfield wise I agree that the preferred three of Clifton, Hessenthaler and Whitehouse cannot sustain their tempo for the whole season.  Tuesday may well have been an off day but Whitehouse wasn't his usual self, after spending a year in rehab it's understandable he will dwindle off at some point.  Resting Clifton also highlighted that Hewitt doesn't offer the same energy levels and our game overall was lesser for it.   That said I think in Cook we've someone who could drop into that midfield three, albeit, in a slightly more advanced role without seeing a drop in the intensity.  

I've got a feeling it could be left-back where we see any other recruit coming in.  Unfortunately it appears that Ring isn't up to it, I suspect Jolley is thinking the same too.  I've only seen glimpses of Gibson but he doesn't seem any better and quite injury prone.  His loan expires in January but I wonder if we'll end up terminating it early to bring someone else in.

Should we bring an attacker in, be it a wide or central player, I think we'll have to shift at least one out.  At present we're employing a three-man attack. of which we've Hanson, Green, Ogbu, Rose, Cook, Vernam, Wright and Cardwell to compete for places.  Far too many, especially if we bring another in.  Cardwell is the one I think most would fancy to go out, probably on loan.

Would Devitt be the central creative midfielder we need, or would he be another option as a wide man in a front three, though?

I only know him as a winger, so not sure where he's been playing since he left us.

I think he played both wide and in a withdrawn striker role at Carlisle.  I think he may have also played wingback at some point too.

That's two midfielders in two days for Bradford


They seem to be strengthening their weaknesses at Blundell park
