Would be a real statement. Don’t think the fee would be that small either, and he’s from Tigers list. 6 foot tall. Surely not everyone will be happy on here!?

Personally, I wouldn’t be unhappy if he were to sign. But, I’m not sure he’d be a signing that screams “Operation Championship Survival”.

Unlike Donley & MPH, he’s never played at the level, and he’s only had 19 games in the league below.

He looks a very good prospect and he could become an asset, but I’m not entirely convinced he’s the answer right now.

If he signs I hope he is a huge success, immediately.

 

[Marked Ox]

Whos the second one?

Batman if the suggestion on here is accurate.

 

[TheDukeOfBanburyshire]

It’s annoying they’ve got such similar usernames because I can’t remember which one I’m supposed to root for

Squint and you could almost be forgiven for thinking it's someone arguing with themselves.

Which is entirely possible for Bicester folk.

 

[Oxford84]

of course, totally forgot about that one. Would the Batman one be a loan though?

Haven't a clue.

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

All bar one will be happy

The one on the High closed last year.

Born in a place called Batman what a hero

A place called where now?

I don’t think I’m the answer to our defensive midfielder issues. If anything I’d only add to them

Detailed write up on McDonnell here. Looks like we would be a good fit for his next move up the leagues. Mansfield fans seem to rate him too which is a good sign

Jamie McDonnell v Sheffield United

Forest midfielder Jamie McDonnell played in Mansfield's brilliant 4-3 win at Bramall Lane yesterday - let's dig in to his performance!

Nixon reporting it

Take it with a pinch of salt. He's in a vicious legal battle with a pie

McDonnell is in the door.

 

[Jaboysmith]

Oh no. Not your kiss of death again

 

[BicesterU]

McDonnell is in the door.

Did Will Still sign him?

 

[Tinman]

Is this guy out of our league?

 

[Jaboysmith]

Is this guy out of our league?

He will be. Because no team in our league would consider signing him

 

[Scotchegg]

McDonnell on a permanent wouldn't impact on squad limits this season and another one for the future. But also looks like he could come in and do a job this season if called upon. Fit and ready to be in the matchday squad from the off.

Seems a sensible move to me.

Yes he would. He will be 22 on the 4th of Feb

 

[uptheus]

We have a deal for Matos on the table, ready, and he could sign today. However, looks as though it would be the end of the window as he is waiting to see what other offers come in for him. The recruitment team really want him, but at what stage do we move on?

Hopefully we’ve learnt with the whole Markus Brown situation!

They’ll be players as good or better than Matos, so you give him a deadline, if he doesn’t sign by that date (and I’m talking 24-72hrs at max), we move on.

Our priority is getting roles filled and not to be left with holes, and the quicker the better.

 

[Scotchegg]

Thought you had to be under 21 on the 1st January of the year the season starts. You remain outside of squad numbers for the whole season.

 

[souporsumfin]

Couple of interesting snippets on the Mansfield forum, mentioned PNE have also made a bid and that Forest may have a recall clause that expires tomorrow. Maybe why we are hearing things now?

Also mentioned they nearly signed GoD on loan in the summer but he then got injured (hand injury).

Wow, would be a better signing than I thought, I thought it was a year further ahead

This is correct, he wouldn’t count this season, he would next though

 

[geosamfry]

McDonnell is in the door

Is this another tip off from your mate at the Mail who said “the club will announce Will Still as our new manager tomorrow at 9am”?

 

[OxfordYankee]

McDonnell’s agent, Stephen Whelan, has followed OUFC’s Instagram account.

Edit:

He’s also Brodie Spencer’s agent, so that’s probably more likely the reason.

Depends if its Jamie Hanson’s measuring tape…..he was 6ft3 by all accounts.

Penguin and the Joker are on their way now after this muppet posted his find me location online!

 

[Archieyellow]

We really need 3-4 top players to make sure we have the best chance of staying up

 

[yellowbow]

I’m still pissed off about Baptiste and Fosu leaving for Brentford in January 2020. Peart-Harris and Konak coming the other way would finally even things up.

A move Fosu was not ready for. Sometimes one more season developing helps.
