Broggy Man Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 With the transfer window about to close on tuesday. Do we think OC has done enough to take us into a position to challange the Midden??? Personally i think we are in about the same position as we were before it opened with the addition of Winters and the departure of McManus. I had hoped for OC to be a little more active but that is probably unfair to him as from the comments it seems he did not get the people that he persued. At least on the up side we didnt panic buy so hopefully Winters turns out to be quality which would go some way to backing up OC on the fact that he wont sign players for the sake of making signings he will only sign quality but im still a little depressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would liked to have seen another couple of signings (hopefully we'll still get another midfielder and a keeper) but I'm also pleased we didn't resort the sort of panic buys that JC ended up making last year.

Saintkev Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Still plenty of time... thinsg are only just starting to liven up. When a team signs X, they can then release Y etc. etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pezza70 Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Will be more happy when we bring another keeper in The cat has earnt the number 1 jumper, but if he was to go down, we are in all sorts without a number 2 keeper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Still plenty of time... thinsg are only just starting to liven up. When a team signs X, they can then release Y etc. etc. Fecking algebra :x Apart from the algebra, I agree with Kev... As the spl clubs get more players they'll cast off one or two. We just have to hold tight over the next few days and see what comes of it... I'd expect at least 3 more players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broggy Man Posted January 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 After today the heat is on we now have a realistic chance and it will depend on the OC's signing power whether we can or not win this league but it is now a real posibility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chansey Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 anyone think OC still has a few targets......I rekon 1 or 2 may be brought in come tuesday. Hope they do anyway. Has charlie Adam of the Midden gone back to the ****? I hope hes gone by the time we play them, i think he's a descent player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'm more worried by Corcoran starting to show some good form than Adam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranmere Saintee Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Personally I'm more worried by Corcoran starting to show some good form than Adam.

But we have Jason, who is as good (in fact probably better) than these guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we have Jason, who is as good (in fact probably better) than these guys. Loans can be extended if the player is under the age of 23 or something like that, or indeed the player is moving to another West Coast team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 I think now that we are in with an outside chance we should be looking to bring in another 2 or at least a proper wingback or winger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And about time too, he has to fulfill his potential one day you know. I hear we might be in for a former England international with a drink problem and a penchant for plastic tits...

Saintkev Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Don't know what you two numpties are on about, but I've heard we're signing Gazza and Mostovoi? Any truth in these rumours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 The Davester has been offered a trial at Bury. For the Davester to be able to sign for them, he would need to be released before 12midnight. Otherwise he will have a trial but not be able to move until the summer.
