David Perkins

If I remember correctly he is a bit of a Sean Thornton style player and a bit of a tosser like Thornton. I dunno what to make of this, no one will move Macca out of the team with Tilson in charge. But then again if he can play on the wing it would be nice to see Moussa sitting in his natural position and have a midfield of: Laurent, Moussa, Grant, Perkins. Not likely to happen though.
 
I thought he left Col Ewe because he missed the north?

Yes that is what he said and what was also mentioned in the link, he was often spotted on his own around Colchester, he never seemed to fit in socially with a lot of the other players, maybe he is just a quiet guy off the pitch who likes to be on his own. We still hold his registration he is only on loan at Chesterfield, I think he costs us around £100K so we may want at least some of that back.

Moussa's natural position is on the subs bench!
 
Tilson seems to have got hold of my list of most hated players and seems to be picking them off one by one. He is a total knob - what sort of bloke dyes his hair that blonde nowadays?

I saw him play at Crawley years ago for Morecombe I think and he is a cheating *******. Good player in fairness but scum with it.

Dave

I think that poor devil has that colour naturally, it is almost white or albino like.
 
Wouldn't mind Pat Baldwin instead.

Going to Bristol Rovers by the sounds of it, the trouble for them is he has two and a half years left on a very good contract and they are struggling to match the money. I expect a loan deal until the end of the season followed by a permanent deal with us paying part of his wages until May.
 
There's a few quality players on that list I wouldn't say no to, including Perkins. Maybury at left back, who's better than John White & Baldwin too!

On the basis RM won't be opening the War Chest, we can dream on!

Yes there are several others who hardly get a look in like Heath and David Fox, if we get Solano in midfield I cant see Fox hardly ever playing unless we have injuries, although Maybury's preferred position is right back.

I think we were reputedly very interested in Fox 12(?) months ago. Is he available and if so on what sort of wages and fee?
 
In the 3-3 game last season I remember being very impressed with Perkins. He is tiny though - a bit of the Russ Williamsons about him for those that remember. Not one to fit in with the Boothroyd hoof ball but could be a good player for us
