Come on Tilly

[DTS]

I really feel we need to look at taking a few players on loan to cover the current injury crisis. No shocker there I know but with Gray, Petts & Gutteridge all out at the moment and Juppy slightly longer term I think we should be looking for 2/3 loan players.

Wouldnt mind doing what we have done in the past with the likes of Nicolau, Broad , Clarky the GOD , Steve Kelly etc etc by going to the big few London clubs and borrowing a up and coming player.

Double bubble really - If they are good such as Steve Kelly you get a classt player and if they are alright Broad / Nicolau etc then you have a good chance of signing them later.

Come on Tilly my son.

Campbell-Ryce wants away from Rotherham and wants to move down South. Doubt we could afford the signing fee but hes a quality winger.

Unlikely.  The rumour I heard was that he was one of the many touted players we were realistically interested in & we'd actually agreed terms with him pre-season only for Rotherham to move the goalposts.  I'm reasonable sure that this is a goer, so I can't see Tilly going over old ground again!  

What comes of having relatives up on the Northern slagheaps!

...Which means we could get Les Ferdionand who wants to play on...training with Tw@tford at the mo....out of contract....maybe be good for a stint of games?

Above all of that I'd be disappointed if we signed a winger.

I personally think midfield has not looked this good in years for both numbers and quality in the squad.

Attacking line is the priority without any doubt, however that priority is closely followed by another body in the defending line.

yeah get him in, he could still do a job. Just look at teddy.

Umm. I am split on whether we need Les now that we have brought in Goater.

Well, Eastwoods out, Grays injured, Lawson's shellshocked.... and we only want him for a few games.....

 

[Matt the Shrimp]

Has Bruce Dyer sorted himself out with a contract yet? If not, surely worth a gamble...

when you put it like that. I was thinking long term.

But we definitley need someone in - whether on a short term contract, loan, pay as you play deal, free transfer, £200,000 signing or Tilly putting his boots back on.

 

[shrimperman]

now you mention it, ferdinand could be ideal. obviously his wage demands are going to be high so we sign him on month to month contract, no strings attached - it would give him the ideal opportunity to show what he could do and get match fitness and then when freddy returns and gray resumes full fitness (depending on the severity of the injury he suffered against the scum) we release him

Yeah, what ever happened to Dyer??

I think he signed for Stoke didn't he??

 

[shrimperian]

Whilst I agree whole heartedly with the views expressed by many on here that we need to get a couple of players in, it may be worthwhile remembering that the transfer window only applies to transfers between clubs. I am unsure whether it also includes only league clubs, but may well do. therefore, we would be free to sign anyone who is out of contract at any time.

 

[DTS]

I would suggest the bulk of players without a contract at this early stage in the season are generally cack. Later in the seaosn you might get better players but anyone decent would surely be fixed up by now

???

Also see Angus in playing for Grays so guess it wont be him

 

[canveyshrimper]

Bruce Dyer signed for Stoke.

 

[Guest]

We really need some people in, but somehow I just don't think it'll happen.

With Gray out injured, it does make me a touch worried...
