Can’t see it myself.


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.

Our groundsman has been on the grass more than this guy. Could have offered to play for free like Holford?

He's training with us; doesn't mean he's starting on Saturday. I'm sure Hurst knows what he's doing. He's already said he could sign loads of players if he wanted, but will only sign those that will make a difference. If this guy does indeed end up playing for us, I'm sure he will have proven himself worthy first.

Then again, he could be here for any number of reasons.

Gowling asked Hurst if he can train with us for some reason? Although it would be difficult to see why, he's from London originally.


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

far more likely it's something to do with coaching

agreed, something that Gowling might have set up when he was at BP the other week. Would make sense if Coke is Sheffield based

Might just be working on his fitness try to get a club.

If he does happen to shine in training might be worth a closer look, but I am hoping that we land someone who has been rather more active recently. We need someone fit and raring to go in the midfield engine room.

Just because of the protocols we have to have in place now for training, even more so after our heavy wrist slap last week, I can't imagine we're allowing someone to train with us just as a favour.

Be it with a view to signing or as a potential player, I think is probably an avenue Hurst is exploring.

The last 5 years of his C.V don't look great at all.  But as is always rolled out whenever Hurst signs someone that raises questions, neither did Jon Nolan's.
