Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Don't think I've heard of him, were you getting your information from? :rolleyes:

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

I seem to recall him playing for us before :)

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Didn't think we'd see him again though, he doesn't get any better does he :rolleyes:

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

squad news now on fishy site..... the phrase "is that it!" springs to mind...

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Maybe its taking a long time to type them all out eh

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Note - 'squad news' always means players leaving!

It ain't fun being skint in this league.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Rather be skint and a league two side than skint and a unibond side.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

At least we could attract players here when we were in the Unibond!

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

If thats that,then this past 24 hours reminds me of that scene in 'Forrest Gump' where Tom Hanks is in that girlfriends dormitory and 'arrives' somewhat prematurely....if you get my drift. :)

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

dont worry thetres plenty of time in the transfer window what we need is more scottish players with pride and passion:p

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Och aye Jimmy.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

ohh and a bit of skill and tactical awarness

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Well if that was the big announcement we've been waiting for - what a disappointment, although it's good news that Ricki Bains is staying a bit longer it's hardly the coup of the century we'de been led to believe is happening is it. As for letting Joel go, that seems ridiculous - it's not as though we're overflowing with players at the moment is it.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

perhaps its to free some wage money up so we can buy someone really good.

Good luck to the lad!!!!!!!

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

I wouldn't hold your breath!

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Heard tonight that there are NO players coming in.
The four players Coley was after have all turned us down. sounds familiar doesn't it! I don't know why but I can guess,
Jiffy Bag please don't build our hopes up again. The Central Defender from Dundee has not signed, in fact,I believe Coley has never seen him play. He was due to go and watch him on Tuesday next but cannot go now as we have a match to play.
O well back to scouting the lower leagues, any good players at Bacup or Burscough?
If we do not sign any decent players next week, I think we are going to struggle to stay afloat, and the gates will really drop. I fear that we will once again become the laughing stock of not only the League 2 but also the Conference.
I sincerely hope that I'm wrong after waiting for fourty four years to regain League status, we are in immediate danger of losing it.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Cheers Jiffy Bag more bull*hit than Eric Whalley build peoples hopes up then find out its all crap, in future don't bother.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

All i can do now is stay silent!!!
HOWEVER I DO TRUST THAT WHEN THESE SIGNINGS ARE ANNOUNCED FULL APOLOGIES WILL BE POSTED!!

god bless my accy!!

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

I do trust you know what to expect if there not………….

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

I think JIFFY was brave to make such a post when many of us were preaching 'Doom and gloom." Don't be harsh on him/her, as his postings have caused no harm and perhaps poured oil on troubled waters,if only for a brief time.Hopefuly there's fire behind his smoke.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Yeah but what`s he smoking ? :D

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Jiffy if the signings do take place I will apologise in triplicate if necessary. But after what I was told last night there are definitely non of the original targets prepared to come to us.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Done And Dusted Today.
Top Scottish Prospect 21 Year Old From Dundee!!
Announcement Imminent......... You Heard It Hear First And Theres Bigger To Come!!

That's what you said and it never happened so what are we supposed to think Mr Bag. As an informer you have failed to come up with the info so you have no chance of an apology of me when signings are made.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Tommy, I don't doubt your sincerity, but I truly hope you're wrong! According to Coley in today's League Paper, "The next 48 hours could determine our season. We need two, maybe three more defenders. The ones we have at the moment are blatantly not good enough."

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

And he's only just realised? :rolleyes:

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

defenders what are they?

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Golly,did he say that?.Our 'defenders' would certainly have their heads down if they read that.Hardly inspireing. And lets be honest ,conceding 5 goals in the last 4 games is an improvement on previous form.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

Mr Coleman's motivational technique works in very strange ways.
Or does it?:confused:

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

I agree, but try telling Coley that. I don't think that we have played that back four many times this season. Edwards always seems to be the fall guy. Coley will not play him at right back, it's either centre of the defence or on the bench. At Boston Edwards (right back) was at centre half and Bains (centre half) was at right back. Against Notts County, Rogers left back and instead of Edwards right back it's Richardson (left back) and Edwards on the bench. Why do we constantly play players out of position. What's goint to happen against Mansfield when Harris returns ? Probably switch Boco up front, Harris in midfield and poor Browny on the bench.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

That bit in the League Paper was not all the interview, he actually said that he would have to get on the telephone for the next 48 hours to try and get three defenders in.
The reference to the four targets not coming in was true, and I believe that to be the case, not as Jiffy Bag stated, the information he gave out must have been old news or hopeful news.

Re: Further squad news is expected in the next 24 hours.
 

So we're dropping Welchy, Leam and Phil, and building the back four round Rocky?

Agree with everyone who says a defensive coach is needed, but what if one comes in and says that Rocky's not good enough to play in the Football League??

The lad will run through brick walls for the cause, but is that better than good technique? Record this season suggests not.
