Don't shoot the messenger
Nor will I reveal my source

But I have heard we will sign Martyn Woolford very soon.

I could be totally wrong but I do believe my source to be genuine.

Would certainly be a good addition, would leave us with 5 wingers though, maybe Slade as unimpressed with Kelly as most of us

Usual nonsense from Aarron.... zzzzzzzzzz

Hasn't played a lot in the last couple of seasons. Used to be a really good player, hopefully if he joins us he still is.

Aaron revealed a signing earlier in the season didn't he? Basically gets a free pass for this one.

I mentioned that Jamil Roberts was joining us on trial, when he never played in the game I thought he would I got accused of bull shitting and attention seeker, 2 weeks later Roberts joined us on trial.

Could be something in it then, may not be my "usual nonsense" as GTFC98 put it.

Cloudy is Woolford's agents bridge partner so until he gives it the green light I'm not giving this a second thought.

I could be totally wrong


Anyone with any genuine inside info shouldn't need to say the above. If you know it's likely to happen, just say it.

If it doesn't happen, take the criticism on the chin. No point trying to save face because whether you said 'I could be totally wrong' or not, people will still get stuck into you!

FFS give the lad a break, I have a couple of sources in and around GTFC, sometimes I have posted what I have heard sometimes I haven't and my sources are not always 100% correct.

Exactly.... I've criticised Aaron before which I apologise for. He's only passing on what he's heard.

Cheers Aaron!

I wasn't having a go at anyone in particular. The problem I have is that plenty of fans pass on info they've just made up, and it's difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff.

So many people hear so many different things that someone with genuine insight could be wrong and someone who makes things up could strike lucky.

Absolutely agree mate. There can be genuine information and for one reason or another something could fall through and a deal may not happen. That doesn't make the original information innacuratr or made up.

All that'll happen is that people will stop putting what they hear on here for fear of being abused.

It's difficult to separate the genuine information to the downright lies.

I've been told the deal for Martyn Woolford should happen, might not necessarily happen tomorrow so it could be similar to Danny Collins who signed after the window closed.

What are we expecting to happen tomorrow? A midfielder possibly as well?

Interesting. He has been an excellent player, certainly far better than L2 but he hasn't played much the last couple of years. Would perhaps add the creative spark we've been missing since Osborne got injured.

Can he play in the middle?

Woolford is a winger isn't he ?

Good player and if Slade plays him as a winger in a 442 or summat then all good but if he did bring him in and carries on being reluctant to play with wingers then I can't see what the point is .

He has been playing with wingers! Dembele has played out wide every game and Tombola or Kelly have also been out wide the other side. They are certainly playing as wingers or at least wide midfielders. The issue so far is that we're not playing in a way that allows them to be utlised properly.

Kelly isn't even a footballer never mind a winger.

It beggars belief that someone on the Fishy would make something up--now come on !

We play with 'wingers' but we smash long balls over their heads and expect them to somehow get in the game and create something without ever actually passing them the ball in space.

Good signing imo. 50 odd goals in 300 appearances in his career and always above league two. Should add much needed creativity to the side. Well done town

RS regretting Kelly? Has taken him off at half time in half the league games he's played and we now have 5 wingers...
Posted by: HertsGTFC, August 31, 2017, 9:48pm; Reply: 43
If he's fit enough to make an instant impact then he looks like a decent addition

All we need now is for the ball playing CMs to get fit and the defenders to stop punting it long and bypassing the mid field and we could actually get to see some shots on goal.

Possibly, he's quite inexperienced for a 23 year old, might have some raw talent that shows when the pressures off but not doing it on the pitch, was a gamble but as its not paid off so far hes gone for a solid reliable signing who maybe we didnt look like getting earlier in the window

Can conference/conference n/s clubs sign players on loan outside the window? I can see a few of our players going to Nuneaton/Harrogate/Lands End if so.
