BS4 on Tour... Posted June 4, 2019 Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 ML was a big part of the squad that brought home the first proper silverware for 60 years - I hope he realises how special that makes him ... top man, best of luck to him ...

He assisted Wilbs’s first goal v Sheffield Utd in 14/15 on debut. His goals per yard () record is far better than Tammy’s! Yet a few of the Sags are labelling Litts as a goalscoring defender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a look at the 19/20 squad update thread on the transfer forum and see how weak we currently are and how much work we have to do in an ever shrinking window. I am well aware it is early days but we are not even strongly linked with anybody as yet - just lots of wild speculation - mainly defensive players which was not actually our weakness last season albeit might become one if we can’t replace Kalas and Dasilva with themselves preferably !! Lets hope we are not as weak in 3 weeks time eh - cos I will still be on my mildly concerned plateau whilst I guarantee all the ends giving me an array of emojis will be shitting themselves and going into meltdown !!

DaveF Posted June 5, 2019 Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 Good signing for them. Pretty limited footballer technically but has the physical attributes to be a pretty handy wing back in league one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you know there is nothing going on behind the scenes because of your links to the club presumably? Are Ashton, Jon Lansdown and LJ just sat in a room counting the Lloyd Kelly cash and laughing? You must realise that in our place in the food chain, it’s like house buying. Every club will be looking to replace whatever they sell so business can be done.

He’s realised his career is on the slide and wants a club who are far enough up to pay him over the odds but not back breaking work. I’m really not laughing as we undoubtedly have been so caught out before; but I think that’s exactly what they have. A good player, a good pedigree, but ready to wind down You mean he’s not going there to get promotion ? You’re trying to tell us that he’ll be going through the motions like a sewage pipe repairman ? I really don’t think the renovation of his house and the launch of his new business is going to distract him now that he has landed his dream transfer to a club he supported as a boy . much .

Pheasant plucker Posted June 5, 2019 Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 Don't panic quite yet! Joking aside there is still plenty of time left. Sadly were not the biggest or most attractive club in the division. So we may have to bide our time. I'm pretty optimistic were going to be happy come the beginning of August though.........famous last words ay!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Rovers have signed a player who was entitled to cancel his contract due to not getting paid. Hence the early signing. We on the other hand are looking at players who will not even be out of Contract until the end of June earliest for a start or may be contracted for another couple of years at their clubs. Controversial I know but contracted players (and their Agents) do go on holiday and do wait to see what offers are on the table before making a final decision. Until we have the pull of Barcelona we will always have those minor obstacles in our way. I’m sure even a club run as amateurish as ours compared to Bristol Barcelona (League 1) Limited who apparently have secured promotion already with their early “no messing about” transfer activity have identified a list of targets and will leave Mark Ashton to go after them with announcements being made in due course. Alternatively we can all panic like **** on the 6th June because the window is shrinking (for all clubs btw) and there is no incoming........

The last thing I am is panicked- I was merely stating the fact that we have done nothing of note whilst others are and have. Put it this way, I will be fine if nothing happens on the transfer front this month, this year.

Not to mention that they signed their 2018/19 player of the season who helped them stay up. Top keeper that lad is . Hang on , incoming news ... Despite being a ‘ true ‘ blue he has signed for Gillingham after being ‘ seduced ‘ by Steve Evans ( a disturbing image ! ) . They keep on giving .
