bearded_red Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Is it not Birmingham City he's been linked with rather than us? Edit- Just seen us named as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC Jordan Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Chris Sweet ?@Sweeter1984 Reliably informed there's nothing in these rumours linking Joe Edwards here, there & everywhere. Agent drumming up talk about his man #ytfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohbasso Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Apparently it's us brum and charlton interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderbeans Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Do we need him? Is he better than what we have? The answer is no. He is at best a league one player. Nuff said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I BELIEVE Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Looked very tidy when they came to AG earlier this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohbasso Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 He seemed to get decent reviews in the championship with Yeovil. I haven't seen much of him since he's left but apparently he always plays defensive midfield instead of right back. Would he be a good partner for Korey Smith?

OldlandReddies Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Can't see it. Wouldn't get into the team or add anything to our squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cottsciderarmy Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Can't see it. Wouldn't get into the team or add anything to our squad. If Cotts rates him, that's good enough for me. He's been right more times than he's been wrong. However we would be better off signing him in the summer, as sadly if we sign him now he can't be part of our JPT and FA Cup winning team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slartibartfast Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 He ought to go to Manure, seeing as him and his dad are No.1 fans ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfcrobins14 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Do we specialize in right backs that can play elsewhere? Ayling/Kane/Edwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin1988 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 I wonder how many who don't rate him have seen him more than five times since he left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappers Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Highly rated by the Yeovil fans at work, definitely would be a good signing by the sounds of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingswood Robin Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Would he come back here? All those weeks dutifully warming up with the rest of the team, only to be stuck on the bench behind a succession of loan signings with no chance of getting a game.

BCFC RED Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 He did a good job on Rooney vs Man U. Isn't he very similar player to K Smith? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bend it like brian Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 out of contract in the summer, expect him to come in then and not before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelRobartes Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Haven't seen him play much for Yeovil but I thought he had a good game against us and he wasn't bad at all against Man Utd. We're not so well off for midfield numbers, particularly when you consider Elliot's age, and I could see him fitting into the squad well considering his versatility.

Monkeh Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 a player I always rated and was extremely disapointed when he was sold, I don't think he'll come back here and if he did would he get in the team, with have little and travenar at right wing back and elliot sav, smith, pack, freeman, in central mid (i may of missed some its early) so he wouldn't be an improvement on what we currently have, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've seen a full back and a wide player in Kane and Wagstaff played there several times this season too. I think we need more than four at the club and if Saville is just a stop-gap then we'll definitely need at least one extra body in the Summer. The club should be looking at young players, preferably with Championship experience, and who are coming up to the end of their contracts or won't cost a fortune. Does Edwards fit that bill? I think that he might. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that he might. Elliot is a creative player, now I'm not sure what sort of a midfield edwards is these days but as he started as a defender I'm going to hazard a guess that he's a defensive midfielder, Now you aren't going to replace a creative player with a defensive player (logically anyway) so I wouldn't think he'd be a replacement, you also mention we have 4 central midfielder contracted, we only play with 2 so 4 is enough imho (we can bring a loan in in case of injury), I haven't read up on the new ffp rules so I can't comment on bugets wages etc, but having a small squad has worked wonders this season and has brought a team spirit and togetherness i've not seen at ashton gate well since i've supported them, I would like to continue down that road myself, while your last sentance is correct and i do agree with it, we should only look for players that are on par with or better then what we have, does edwards fit that bil? maybe not but I'm sure Cotts isn't sat on his backside, he'd be think about next season as well as the next 3 and half months, Its nice to have such a forward thinking manager with an eye for a player for a change thats for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other factor that we haven't mentioned is the fact that Saville has been brought in and seems to be ahead of Pack in the pecking order now. Pack has played quite a few games this season but in fairness we only have the two other guys in his position, does Saville's loaning mean that SC doesn't trust Pack? Personally I think that Pack can be very good on his day, his problem is inconsistency. Would Edwards be an improvement on him? I haven't seen enough of him but I have every confidence in SC and KB's recruitment. The issue with your four into two argument is that I included Freeman as one of the four, so it's actually three into four. If you don't include Freeman it just leaves us with the three (not including loan players or Reid as he's barely been here all season) so I'd say it's definitely an area we will look to recruit in.
