Prinny Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Holden says one extra player available for the squad that wasn't before, smiles when asked if it's Williams. Liam Walsh is "a big part of the way we want to play" - "those talks are going well from what I've been told" on a new contract. On Joe Morrell - "There been interest" "As I said before we're looking to trim down the squad before the deadline on friday, there's interest in two or three of our players" To me that reads as goodbye Joe! "We don't need to bring anyone in" A+ professional interview from Chris Martin. focused on what they can control, analysing areas he can improve and the team can improve. not paying attention to others, not complacent. Exactly what I want to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colemanballs Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Two very good interviews. I'd not disagree with any of your conclusions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Martin speaks ever so well. Think it was after the Northampton game where he interviewed like he was the manager! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Island Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Downsy and Lisa Knights clearly been coaching Martin in how to say all the right things whilst saying nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozo Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 So it sounds like Morrell and Palmer are heading out. Who's the third? Nagy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was after the Northampton game where he interviewed like he was the manager! I think he shows the merit of having a few experienced older players in the first team. I bet Brunt is useful to have around too. The Lee Johnson era was the only time I can remember where we didn't actively recruit a couple of experienced heads for the first team. Under Cotterill and Gary Johnson we made sure to do that and reaped the benefits. (I've blocked the McInnes/Millen days out so can't remember whether we did back then!) 2 hours ago, mozo said: So it sounds like Morrell and Palmer are heading out. Who's the third? Nagy? I think Nagy is unlikely now the international window has shut. I'd be surprised if he gets a domestic loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've about 30 hours to go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potentially O'Dowda (unlikely now given the situation perhaps) off the top of my head I can't see many logical choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Holden's comments are a public message that we don't want to sell, in order to pressure the interested party to up their offer then that would also make sense... Selling Morrell and Walsh feels a bit controversial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selling Morrell and Walsh feels a bit controversial. Anyone got an update on Walsh’s injury? When did he last play - March? That’s seven months then, which is three-quarters of a season, but I don’t remember it being described as a very serious injury at the time.
