Yep, I agree but we've had others who have come here at the end of their careers and done a great job - Whymark, Sherwood, Gary Jones and even Matt Tees the second time.
I'm an optimist - we must be due to sign someone who will go on to be a Town legend at some point. And Fenty won't be here to tell them to f*ck off when they have the audacity to ask for a pay rise.
Some good examples there, if a little harsh on Gary Jones who was just a couple of months the wrong side of his 30th birthday when he signed. He did cut the figure of an older player though, so I know what you mean. I remember watching him sprint for the first time on his debut against Oxford and thinking, “who’s this fúcking cart horse we’ve signed here?” How wrong was I? What’s that saying, don’t judge a book by how quickly it runs over ten yards, or something.

I think energy is what we have in abundance - Hewitt and Clifton, but class and experience we are somewhat lacking (Rose has been disappointing imo)
Coke - Clifton - Hewitt may be the winning formula??

Ha! If your view of Lumpaldinho was based on his speed you would think he was sh*t. But as you well know, back to goal and holding the ball up, finding another Town player from a flick on and muscling defenders were what he did! And you can add to the list Craig Shakespeare and Craig Disley. Brian Laws did ok as a player as well. Not so sure about his management skills.

Was a big Craig Shakespeare fan as a young 'un.... Almost the forgotten midfielder of the 90's really, in terms of players we still talk about these days.

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.
Haha, just look at the video interviews that the club splash on the website....if you look in the background at the players training/ warming up there doesnt seem to be a great deal of compliance with what i would think are basic protocols for the current pandemic. Even at Sunday League level we are supposed to minimise sharing of equipment, wipe down intermittently with anti bacterial etc. In the latest Rollin interview players could be seen taking off their sweaty bibs and passing them to other players to put on !! FA wouldnt need to do an inspection as the club have already documented it on video for the world to see.

That’s just another sign of the money incompetence/naivety in the club.
