Transfer News Incoming :another midfielder - Josh Wright?

[RCYellowRC]

If we need another midfielder surely the thing that makes most sense is buy a new left back and use Ruffels as cover for both positions?

 

[amershamdave]

Can't we get a f*cking striker? The last striker I remember at Oxford was Red Robbo from the car factory in the bloody 70's! Yes, I know he was based at BL in 'Brum, but you get my point, eh?

We all know we need a striker or two no question. Put that to one side..,

I think wright could be s good signing. Hanson is now our right back, Ruffels our left back, baptise injured, Brannagan is one yellow away from a suspension, Sykes one for the future (since signing him KR might realise it’s gonns be 6 months - like Dunkley), and Kashi and Mous will sit in front of the defence, I think we do need an extra body in.

Wright hasn’t worked out well at Bradford but has done well at this level before and 29 is a fine age for a centre mid. Also meant to be a leader which we need. Can’t see it breaking the bank so surely helps the depth of the squad and aids us moving forward...

Who do we drop to accommodate him?

 

[bazzer9461]

Think the striker situation will be hoping Mackie stays reasonably fit. We have an abundance of midfielders, ffs Robinson get your f*****g act together, don’t matter whether Wright scores 14 goals a couple of seasons ago and Captained them it’s a case of why Bradford are letting him go so soon.

 

[yellowbow]

It’s been reported that it’s a loan with a view to it being made permanent next summer. As Robinson is apparently a long term admirer of the player, maybe it was just too good an opportunity/price etc to turn down.

 

[Andy Stroud]

Who do we drop to accommodate him?

Mackie obviously

 

[Browny]

Just seems strange. We have brought in 2 midfielders already in this window and also have Curruthers back fit. Do we really need what will effectively be a 4th new one ?

Add to the fact we already have 5 loans and we can probably assume our striker (s) will be be loans. Also talked about Holmes coming back (or staying) in a different loan arrangement

We seem to be overloaded with loans and midfielders.

 

[Gary Baldi]

I wonder if his situation is similar to Tony McMahon's here, where he hasn't settled up north and wants to be nearer home?

 

[holdsteady]

We now only have 18 games left, it does seem a strange signing if nobody leaves, we have 5 players for the two midfield positions, one of them is not going to see much action.

Ox mail saying Robbo rubbish talk of this transfer last night now we have filled the position.

Unlikely I know, but you can’t help wondering if all the adverse reaction, on top of last nights display, has given Robinson cold feet.

I suspect he had that at Bury last night anyway!

 

[greatunclekip]

Good. Hopefully Robbo can get back to watching his videos.

Bazzer will be able to calm down for 5 mins now.

Really? You are joking right?
He explained that we were looking at him but now havdca midfield player and dropped the interest.
Far more plausible that a concocted story that he looked on here lost a relatively unimportant game and then last night decided against signing him!!

 

[Sarge]

Unlikely I know, but you can’t help wondering if all the adverse reaction, on top of last nights display, has given Robinson cold feet.

Wonder if he spent those 4 hours watching cold feet new series on catchup tv ?

So does that mean we only had him on loan???

 

[amershamdave]

I know of a slim red-head that's got a great strike-rate and is a great match for us...............no, wait; I'm thinking of a Swan Vesta
