Imagine if this is the bluff of the century
Well Holloway was quoted as saying the deal is now highly unlikely, that to me means there's still a chance. |

Well pleased with that personally, dont think it would have been a happy/long term viable proposition. Its not as though he could bring in extra on the gate to help finance the deal, would undoubtedly break the wage structure and pee off other signings in the process.
Also not so sure advertising the fact we need goals when he has signed several people who he hasnt even given an opportunity to do so yet, not great for morale. I do wonder if the Hanson injury is worse than we are being told though.

Several people who were signed to replace fringe players. Alongside an injury prone striker and one who couldn’t hit a barn door last season. I’m not sure how anyone can look at our centre forwards and be totally comfortable with them, it’s obvious Holloway isn’t for starters. |

he needs to start winning, or this is going to end in tears.
Sort it Holloway
I mean, we've literally played one league game, but sure |

Not sure i am either in all honesty but i dont think telling young fresh pro's that you have just signed they are basically not up to it is good for their development.....on the other hand maybe it was said to rile them up and fire them up...... i have my own theories on whether or not we will actually see Hanson play at all this season anyway....more to his absence than we know according to my gut feeling. |

Is this the same injury Hanson had at the end of last season or is it a new one ?

I agree. Looking at his stats since leaving GTFC on 31st January 2017 he has been very goal-shy. Who knows? Maybe his eye for goal has upped and left. These figures include League and Cup appearances 3 in 14 for Wigan 3 in 12 for Cardiff 1 in 9 for Peterborough (loan) 1 in 16 for Birmingham (loan) 4 in 14 for Portsmouth (loan) 1 in 12 for Cardiff 1 in 5 for ADO Den Haag It seems odd to still rate a player who last hit more than 5 goals in a season when he last played for us 4 years ago. He hasnt exactly set the world alight with his performances since leaving us. Who is to say he still has the ability? Its a big ask to want him back AND expect him to perform like he did 4 years ago. He played more games in 2 seasons for GTFC than he has played in the last 4 years for 6 teams. Personally, Im probably in the minority who would rather he didnt come back. The truth hurts sadly. |

Not surprised he's not signing for us and as for Hanson, think we'll be lucky to get a handful of games out of him and although, after watching Holloways pre-match press conference, he seemed happy and jovial in the photo shoot for this year's squad pictures. I'm hoping Gibson shows something up front, looked good against Harrogate and Green, for as much as he works hard and gives 100%, not sure he's the answer to our striker woes

I’d say that players need a while in a team before they become efficient or play to their full potential. How many players get written off a couple of months into a loan spell and all of a sudden, it just clicks. Especially for strikers.
I still think we’ll see him back at BP this season playing for us for what it’s worth

“To put it in gentleman’s terms if you’ve been out for a night and you’re looking for a young lady and you pull one, some weeks they’re good looking and some weeks they’re not the best. Our performance today would have been not the best looking bird but at least we got her in the taxi. She weren’t the best looking lady we ended up taking home but she was very pleasant and very nice, so thanks very much, let’s have a coffee”
