New signings will be

if I was a betting man I would say

Two players from Cardiff City
One player from Liverpool

Possible one from crewe

All unconfirmed of course:)

Re: New signings will be

Any idea what positions they play Mr K?

Hope it's two defenders, a midfielder and a striker.

Re: New signings will be

Nope

Names will be in accy observer out about tea time today.. so read em then... seeing as the fishy site isnt forthcoming :)

Re: New signings will be

If there is any good news at all re:signings, the club should make it public as soon as possible. It's all very grim at the moment.

Re: New signings will be

I agree.. but your back to the same thing.. they cant say someones signed until the forms have been signed.. the newspapers can... like the telegraph broke the story re craney....at the time the telegraph went to press he had NOT signed for swansea but obviously would..

What your suggesting is the club tell us if somehting is in the pipeline and to a certain extent I agree.. but suppose it then falls through.. not good

So the club cant release the info until its deal done.. the papers can

Fingers crossed its deal done before tea time :)

Adam Dugdale - Born 12th September 1987 in Liverpool, 6' 3" tall, defender, one appearance for Crewe against Rochdale this season in the Johnstone Paint Trophy drew 1-1

Re: New signings will be

David Mannix- Born 24th August 1985, midfielder, played four reserve games this season.

Quote:

David Mannix is a player of immense potential. He possesses a great range of passing, is two footed and a great competitor and is a regular member of Hughie McAuley’s reserve squad. He will play a number of games for the Under-18 team this season in an effort to build up his fitness after being plagued for two years by a serious knee injury.

Under-18 Academy manager John Owens said: “At Under-15/Under-16 level David was such a shining light in central midfield. He is a very strong but gifted midfield player. He has a range of passing, good ability on the ball and a tremendous prospect. He then started the Under-17 year and got injured with a bad knee pre-season. He needed a major operation in the USA which was a pioneering operation for someone so young.

“Without the injury David would have been one who would be playing regularly for the reserves and making tremendous progress towards being the next Academy player through to the first team squad. We hope with David Mannix the problems he has had with injuries is just a large hiccup if you like.”

Re: New signings will be

So - two defenders aged 19 & 20 and two midfielders aged 18 & 21, none of them with much experience, but Coley knows what he is doing. Personally I would have preferred an experienced defender or midfielder to organise and motivate the team, but this is what we have now until the January transfer window.

Re: New signings will be

With these loan signings and our already youthful squad (Eliot, Proctor, Mangan, Harris, Boco, Ventre) I reckon theres a strong case for us being renamed Accrington Stanley U21s! Mannix looks like the standout signing...if only because he's the only one with his own caption on the official site
