pongo88 Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 I just had a look on Wikki and it said: "He is a left sided player comfortable at left back; he can also can play as a goalkeeper, sweeper and striker" Cor blimey, can he also sell programmes, do the half time entertainment and work in the burger van before the match?

hortonred Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 I struggle to understand who will want to join us. We are a sinking ship offering the prospect of league 1 football. Surely good prospects from league 1 who want to test themselves in the Championship will not want to join a club about to return to the league they would be joining from. And quality Championship players will not want to drop in to a relegation scrap with a team rooted in the bottom three. We know we should have sorted this out in the summer and are now truely screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He apparently earns a bit too much for them so that might not work for us.. believe of it what you will. Wolves apparently interested also.

The Bard Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 He's a solid championship type. My main recollection of him is his ridiculous own goal in the last minute at Selhurst Park 3 years ago. Made the score 2-1 when it should have been about 5-0.

We're there on goal difference and dropped in for the first time in a couple of months yesterday. Thankfully I assume you have nothing to do with trying to sell the club to potential signings.

Turbored Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Can't really see us signing anyone of any calibre that would fit the so called scope of what we desire. That being quality proven championship stock. We may sign some players from uncharted waters ie someone from L1. Realistically let's be honest what proven quality championship player would come here unless we were offering stupid money and that ain't gonna happen. So it looks like if we require quality and experience it will be loans and if we stay up then we may have a rethink on what exactly is the recruiting policy.

Portland Bill Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Is this the Moxey who came through Exeter,s youth system, if so, I'm sure a return to the West Country would suit him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have concerns about our attractiveness too. I've little doubt we could get in the players to get us over the line, if indeed that is necessary. What I genuinely fear however is that we buy in to 'at all costs' and start paying over the odds for these players, compound the problem in future seasons with mediocre players and tie our hands. It was only a few seasons back exactly that happened, and we were fortunate not to drop twice. i may be odd and im sure a few will facepalm, but my biggest fear (shock horror) really aint relegation; it's James, Stewart, hunt, kilkenny et al. For the first time in a long time we've a squad and players to take pride in, even if valiant battlers. Let's hope we don't rip that apart I say.

shelts Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 The squad we have isn't good enough, last year it was, theyve had chances to prove they can step up to the championship but this have proved fruitless. Our poor old manager may well have had his hands tied in the Summer but some of our loans are questionable. We need championship quality players to compete regularly. I don't think we're a million miles away with what we got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chappers Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Decent player, my only doubt is how he would fit in, we have Baker/ Williams for left CB and Williams/ Bryan at LWB. To me it's not a priority position... Unless Baker is heading back to Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
