Transfer News Transfer Window Summer 21

I think that you're both (Scotch and NC2U) being unfair to Kip...he'd say that the board just wasn't willing to pay the asking price plus his salary. A real lack of ambition.

 

[Wandering Yellow]

I'm still in mourning over Mark Stein.

We should never have let Jimmy Shields go, huge error

A real lack of ambition.

Are you on drugs?

 

[Jon-ioualways]

I am, as a matter of fact, having fractured my elbow yesterday. But more important, did you read my entire post? I was channeling my inner Kip (much easier to do when on drugs, by the way).

I thought you might have been, which is why I asked! Seems fun. Can I have some? All the best with the elbow though! How did that happen?

I endorse this post.

If it was Wembley you'd probably have hit it instead of scoring

We all know Sykes can be a great player on his day but can he be consistent? Can he add goals to his game?
For me you have McGuane, Brannagan and Henry in front of him. Bodin can also play he number 10 role and so can Whyte. If Sykes wants to play this season he really needs to step up to the mark and prove he can perform consistently. Something he has struggled to do since he came to the club.

How many goals did brannagan and mcguane score last season? Bit unfair to criticise just sykes in this department.

Sykes was fit the whole season. And Brannagan has a history of goals when deployed correctly.

One of the best players in pre-season. He’s going nowhere. Great option to have in the squad, and he’s too good for a loan in league 2. Would we loan him out to another side in our league? Probably not…

Can’t see Agyei going out on loan to be honest. We need him in the squad. Dan had a good season, and I hope that he will feature more this season! McNally would benefit from minutes, but do we have enough cover at CB to loan him out? I’m not convinced.

Agree 100% with all of that.

I bet Sykes starts on Saturday. McGuane has to earn his way back into the side. Dan is getting better all the time and gives us some raw physicality, be that on the wing or as an option up top. And if McNally were to be loaned out, we'd be back at square one in terms of lack of defensive cover (unless we had a 24hr recall clause in the loan, which I'm not even sure they're allowed any more?).

Doing nothing interesting! Tripped on some uneven pavement.

Earn his way back into the side?

It's the start of a new season, no one has the right to start because of what they did or didn't do 3 months ago. If McGuane is fully fit then he starts ahead of Sykes.

 

[RyanioBirdio]

Messi is certain to leave Barcalona now. Something for us maybe?

Can we at least sign his cousin at the same time and pretend they’re a left back, even if they never set foot on a pitch? Just give me something.

We already signed somebody from Barcelona who turned out to not actually be a footballer. I’m not asking for anything groundbreaking.

Sykes was our best player at the end of last season and Dan is going to storm the League this year. ‘Mon the Yellows!

 

[greatunclekip]

I Still think we've got 2 more signings coming in one could be sensational ,to really show the board really means business

"Sensational" "really means business" - are you Scotchers in disguise?!

Any mug can score on an immaculate pitch at Wembley, the real acid test is a Monday night at Torquay.

Have Brannagan and McGuane brought goals to their game so far?

Jack Midson scored a brilliant hat trick at Torquay.

And the third in injury time Torquay must have been truly pissed at Jack

could do a job for us?

 

[Nadi-]

Sykes has had a good preseason, a continuation to the end of last season.

 

[bazzer9461]

could do a job for us?

Would he be able to start as the 5 th recognised striker?
