January Transfer Window Thread 2020

[Chairman Trigg]

Why has he only played 6 games for Accrington?

You have to protect quality players ,and not play them as they might get injured.....or they're cack

 

[Tommy2holes]

I thought the Accrington LB was pony so if this bloke is stuck behind him I’d rather play John White at LB

Or maybe his face just didn't fit at Accrington and he needed to move on. It happens.

Sometimes moves just do not work out for players and their new team, could be style of play, they don't settle etc any number of issues. So hopefully it is just a case of that, if indeed he does sign. Players training with a club don't always sign, We have had Jordan Archer training with us this season as well as Garmston from Gillingham so we will have to see i guess.

PG Tips? Typhoo?

At Accrington it would be ALDI red label I would think.

 

[Ricky Otto]

It certainly wouldn't be Yorkshire Tea

 

[FarmdogSUFC]

Just play Clifford if this is the route we're going down.

They have a new signing in the tea department, I said I didn't believe it, but they tell me it really is in the bag.......

It’s only a loose rumour don’t take a leaf out of his book.

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Can't even get in Accrington's team. **** off. The absolute abysmal recruitment continues

But he is an international and has played in the Scottish premiership so he must be good!

Naughty!

 

[Blues4LifeDan]

I don't get the negativity. He got to two Wembley finals with Fylde last season and had we signed him then, people would have said, "I'm glad we're trying to get gems from non-league, rather than washed up has-been's on big money!"

Additionally, who else do people think we are going to get in our current position? Yes Clifford is back, but two players in that position is ok. Plus, we don't know if Clifford is ready for league football yet.

If we sign him, I'm happy to back him.

Stop talking sense, this is a moaning forum, so go away and think about what you typed

I unreservedly apologise!

He is rubbish. We are going down. Sol has done nothing to change the side. Bring on Scannell!

I feel better now!

 

[Angell Delight]

If Sol decides he’d be a good signing then that’s good enough for me. We’re definitely improving slowly under his leadership and I’m happy to back his judgement. This season is a write-off and it certainly isn’t Campbell’s fault, we need to be fully behind him and judge him next season when it’s HIS team not Bond’s.

 

[Barry.C]

As long as there are not elements of Blackman?

 

[Jai]

1. Training with does not mean signing for
2. If there is a deal in the offing, we don't know if it's permanent or a short-term loan.
3. He's out of contract in the summer. We may just be running the rule over him with a view to a permanent signing if he's any good.
4. We have no left back, won't have one for the foreseeable future. If Campbell feels this is the best way to go, rather than continue to go for square pegs in round holes, fair play. Clifford may not be ready for L1 football yet,

 

[Colchester and proud!]

Of course it is not always about which league you are in or the salary you pay, it can sometimes be about location. Your close proximity to London must make it attractive to players who come from around there or who would like to live close by. We have several London based players or people like Dean Gerken (A Rochford boy!) who signed for us from Ipswich not because we were paying fantastic money, but because he lived locally, knew the club from his previous stint with us, and didn't want to uproot his young family.

 

[Napster]

Why has he only played 6 games for Accrington?

Seems he's had a few injuries.
