So according to Holloway today he's looking at three free agents coming in (hope they aren't free agents because of injury or attitude problems and that they have some experience without being too old!) and a keeper too 'to give Macca competition' (not clear if the keeper is one of the three he mentioned though)

Without wanting to turn this into a thread about an ex player, was he really that good though?


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

Much like Scott Neilson and many other players over the years, he was good enough to play much higher than NL, but didn't have the mentality to succeed at a higher level. Shame, because those 2 would easily be league 1 or higher players if they had the right attitude.

Crazy!

"Money is no object" we were told the other day so why go down the free agents route again? From the tosh we picked up this season we know the majority of them won't be match fit and will take weeks before being able to play. Buy a couple of match fit, lower league, experienced players and only then fill gaps with the players nobody wants.

Picking up 3 free agents in December when they'll have almost certainly been without a club (and a game) since at least March strikes me as absolute madness, especially when we've still not got the last lot of dross we signed up to match fitness.
