Craney Off??
 

Don't want to be the bearer of bad news but Craney is having a medical at a league one club today.

Re: Craney Off??
 

On what grounds of the information have u got that from jiffy:rolleyes:

Re: Craney Off??
 

hes already played at league one level so why didnt they bid for him when swansea were letting him go! i dont want him to go i think he is a good player and we do well with him in the team as from the past two games he is playing very good! so dont go craney! and he is on a 3 year deal so they will have to pay for that plus they will have to offer more than what morecombe did or he aint going no-were

Re: Craney Off??
 

its stockport co my dads dog told me :tongueout hope it fall trough

Re: Craney Off??
 

its not stockport. there was a clue to this possible move in my reply to Sam F's negative post on the Port Vale thread after Saturday's game!

Re: Craney Off??
 

Huddersfield

Re: Craney Off??
 

So huddersfield told ya then jiffy:D, i tend not to beleive the hype till some kind of confirmation has been made otherwise its just rumour & speculation.

Re: Craney Off??
 

U don't seem to have much confidence in Jiffy's information there. Sometimes it's not always hype. I'm sure Jiffy wouldn't have posted this unless it was accurate info. Sos and Gary are there nowadays so that probably played a part in this deal being done.

Re: Craney Off??
 

Nope maverick, many have given rumour & speculation, tho jiffy doesn't seem to provide me with otherwise with a link or something, until then its only speculation:rolleyes:

Re: Craney Off??
 

like I said there was a clue to this deal in my post on Sat but best wait for official confirmation later today Stanley Mad. No doubt official site will post something soon confirming it

Re: Craney Off??
 

No worries maverick, will await information, only sceptical cos the many posts some one is going somewhere & causes the hype then nothing, so which is why.

Re: Craney Off??
 

rumour

Re: Craney Off??
 

Eric on the move

Eric Whalley is having a bid to take over a Premiership club considered today.

Re: Craney Off??
 

nope

Re: Craney Off??
 

ha that NOPE was about the Craney situation by the way (sorry to see him go) but that Eric thing is hilarious. Good work Jeff

Re: Craney Off??
 

:rofl38: bet he wishes lmao!!:D

Re: Craney Off??
 

i heard that coley has been approached from la galaxy for the manager job! and he is going over during this week for the interview!

Re: Craney Off??
 

Mully is going to captain England soon:D

Re: Craney Off??
 

ha. but in all honesty those eric and Coley stories aint gonna make the fishy site later today whereas the title thread will

Re: Craney Off??
 

Ok, Craney has turned down any offers made for him as he intends to continue playing for stanley, so he can score at home too :D

Re: Craney Off??
 

Where do u both get your insider info from ????

Re: Craney Off??
 

stanley sign 30 goal a season scottish striker;)



















:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D if only

Re: Craney Off??
 

even if he does move today wil take fishy site until christmas to put the information on anyway so it wont be offical until than! i dont want craney to go though he was just getting back to his good form again! news is branch will be manager if coley goes to la galaxy

Re: Craney Off??
 

Banana's are the new stanley mascot:ban::banane58::banane58:

Re: Craney Off??
 

Mr Ed's mouth haha.

Re: Craney Off??
 

oh well <<sigh smiley thing that doesn't exist>>

good luck (again) Ian, thanks for the transfer fee's (again) and we'll see you back next year (again) hopefully!

I think he'll do well at the McAlpine Gaspy stadium with Gazza and Soz (soz mate I've spelt it wrong)

Re: Craney Off??
 

done and dusted :( Good luck Ian

Re: Craney Off??
 

Official confirmation... where?

Re: Craney Off??
 

If it's true it would explain why he put some effort in the past couple of games.
Again if it is true, I'll be glad to see the back of him. Liability.

Re: Craney Off??
 

bet u will Shakes! Can't see us getting another midfielder who scores over 10 goals a season to come to a club where the crowds are dwindling, has no money and has to sell their best players just to survive in the league. This deal will probably stop the club for flirting with administration. I 4 1 am sorry to see him leave and I suspect coley will not be given the money from the deal by Eric to get somebody half as good as him in.

Re: Craney Off??
 

U mean the floor is done & dusted???????????

Where is the news or where u have clarification of this:confused: checked both beeb & fishy - naff all:rolleyes:

Re: Craney Off??
 

Is this really true?
I'm sure he was in the garage where i work earlier!

Re: Craney Off??
 

LOL he must have a double:rolleyes::D

Re: Craney Off??
 

from the horses mouth like i said b4

Re: Craney Off??
 

How much has he gone for ?

Re: Craney Off??
 

Mmmm sounds like Mr Eds got mixed up cos surely u dont mean Craney himself:rolleyes:

Re: Craney Off??
 

Andy Procter, who has half of the ability that Craney possesses, played far better than Craney last season and got three more goals than Craney did. Blame it on Craney not being played in the correct position all you want but the fact of the matter is Ian Craney didn't but the sufficient amount of effort in and his attitude on the pitch stank to high heaven. We're better off without him. If Craney put the effort in he'd be a brilliant player - but he's a lazy prima donna.

Re: Craney Off??
 

thats for the club to say on the fishy site but deals done

Re: Craney Off??
 

I have been on Huddersfield's site and their Mad Unofficial site and there is no hint that Craney is going any where.

Re: Craney Off??
 

Well even hudders site official or otherwise aint saying either, sounds like chinese whispers gone wrong.

Re: Craney Off??
 

Isn't it also for the club to say that he has gone? If you can disclose this transfer information before it's on the fishy site then you can disclose the amount of the transfer fee.

Re: Craney Off??
 

Good point Jeff:D

Re: Craney Off??
 

procter is unable to do even the simple things on a football field and to compare him with craney is ludicrous

Re: Craney Off??
 

Here you go:

CRANEY TO BECOME LATEST TOWN CAPTURE | Huddersfield Town | News | First Team News | First Team News

Re: Craney Off??
 

Precisely. If Craney put the effort in to match his ability then he would've surpassed Procter both in goals and standard of performances, but the simple fact is that he didn't. Procter played far better than Craney last season.

Re: Craney Off??
 

Ok opologies to jiffy & maverick, just next time wait for link before announcing would help:D thanks haggis:D

Re: Craney Off??
 

yes Jeff and Macca maybe it is for the club to give that OFFICIAL confirmation ur always banging on about so let's just wait and see then. It makes no odds if u believe me or not does it deals done. Fishy site is always slow about these things

Re: Craney Off??
 

On fishy site now

Re: Craney Off??
 

Me wonders if he knew he was being scouted to suddenly switch his play - & obviously avoiding the home test:rolleyes:

Re: Craney Off??
 

I think Rob has answered me now lmao:D

Re: Craney Off??
 

So much for his three year deal and wanting to play for the mighty reds!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Craney Off??
 

I'll say it again, I for one am glad to see him gone. We are relieved of a player who did not put the effort in week in/week out for our club.

On Stanley On.

Re: Craney Off??
 

Mmmm reading fishy site seems that the undisclosed fee is not going on a replacement but reinjection into the club.

Re: Craney Off??
 

shakes didn't Craney only sign back in October on loan and then permanently in the January window half way through last season? So Proccys 3 more goals aint really that impressive is it now? Anyways if he was that good surely clubs would be bidding for Proccy wouldn't they? I just hope the money we get (some of it anyways) is given to Coley to get 1 maybe 2 midfielders in, preferably 1 that can replace Craney's goal tally.

Re: Craney Off??
 

Huddersfield Examiner suggest "Robbo" joined "for a down-payment with add-on incentives to total £250,000". Stan indicates "substantial payment" of similar order to "Robbo".

Sounds like good business by Eric to me.

Re: Craney Off??
 

don't bring me in to this - I knew the story had basis



the link Haggis gave us has Stan Ternent saying that they have paid similar to what they paid for Gary Roberts. That was said to be around £180k

Re: Craney Off??
 

I'm not saying Procter is better than Craney, he isn't. I'm saying that a player of Procter's standard shouldn't have statistics that come close to Craney's. Yet because of Craney's total lack of commitment and love for being a lazy prima donna, his ability was left at home.

Re: Craney Off??
 

Seconded.

For Eric Whalley read Bob Lord. The money will be going towards the 'Ian Craney Stand'.

Re: Craney Off??
 

i didnt want ian to leave he has played well last couple of games! i hope we get a replaced ment becuase the team seem to start playing well this season with craney back in his position

good luck ian thanks for the goal agaisnt vale

Re: Craney Off??
 

Would you rather that we didn't build it or have I misread the tone of your post?

Re: Craney Off??
 

Just being facetious. I totally approve of Mr. Whalley's fund raising methods in this instance.;)

Re: Craney Off??
 

Bob Lord = brief and unhappy association for Accrington Stanley fans.

Eric Whalley = man whose long term commitment has engineered the club's renaissance into the Football League and its continued position there.

Re: Craney Off??
 

we will miss him, he has played well in the last two games! you cnt deny that! i cnt belive you are saying he was a bad player we only played 3 games this season and he played half a season last time! he was a good player great team player! who is going to play in middle now, we will have to build up again, good luck ian

Re: Craney Off??
 

And then suddenly he's signed by Huddersfield. Maybe he only put in the effort when he knew he was being scouted? He was poor in the second half of last season, but looked good in the last two games. Coincidence??

I really hope that we can get someone in to replace him, especially going forward. If players like this were easy to come by, then Huddersfield wouldn't have paid out for Craney. Coleman has a job on his hands, but has the rest of the month to get someone in, as long as some of that cash is made available to him (and I know what it says on the website).

Re: Craney Off??
 

I wasn't going back that far Haggis316. I was referring to the Martin Dobson stand at Dingle HQ.

Re: Craney Off??
 

in the end though we aint big enough to be a keeping club! we are a selling club like the website says if its right for us and the player the deal will be done! sometimes wish we could be a keeping club thought but we need money

Re: Craney Off??
 

What an idiotic statement!!! whats that got to do with stanley????

The amount of dingle bashing thats being plagued on STANLEY forum lately we may as well rename the darn thing dingle v barsteward bash.............Hello stanley forum stanley related if not take it to gen footy or better still venge your own rivalries on your own footy forum!:mad:

Re: Craney Off??
 

Whenever there is a "feelgood feeling" about our performances as at Wolves I have a distinct feeling that one or two star performers will be sought after. I had the same feeling in 2006 after Torquay away.

Re: Craney Off??
 

do you people watch the same game?

I would rather have 1 ian craney over 10 andy proctors.

For all his effort, proctor looks destined to be a league 2 player. Ian Craney oozes class at this level and when he is given the freedom he was to good for league 2.

Last year he suffered from being paul mullins strike partner.

Its a massive loss, but it makes sense for the club.

Hopefully we can get a kid or 2 with potential to come in.
We will certainly need a ball player with a good engine.

Re: Craney Off??
 

All in all if this is the figure paid you couldnt turn it down!!


Huddersfield Town - Ian Craney Signs for Huddersfield

Re: Craney Off??
 

Sorry must have been mistaken about seeing him!

Re: Craney Off??
 

you might off seen him he might of gone the ground for the final goodbyes and things than gone petrol station than drove the huddlesfield for the medical

Re: Craney Off??
 

Fair enough,could have been that!
Was certain it was him!

Re: Craney Off??
 

He has at least one look a like. I work with one.

Re: Craney Off??
 

What a load of undiluted drivel. I was, of course, alluding to the similarities in fund raising methods to pay for extensions to the clubs premises. Get it now.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Re: Craney Off??
 

Yeh i've been made well aware of that but still dont see the reason for the un-necessary comparision drivel tbh, like i say its a stanley forum lets keep it related to that of stanley & games in relation:alright:

Re: Craney Off??
 

Thank god there is at least one other person with any bloody sense Craney is a quality player but has done **** all for us since he came back - especially since he signed. He thinks he's bigger than the club and expected the whole team to revolve around him. The two big performances just before a transfer SHOWS how much he doesn't care about stanley - he's been able to play all along just couldn't be arsed. If it is true we've sold him for a profit - never even mind close to 200k we are laughing all the way. Good riddance.


Also noted this on a Hudderfield site in the comment box

WHO!!! Good old Stan...Thanks Deano...Can only assume at this stage he's a left sided midfielder with some pace...!!!...?? Come on someone must know..????? 80s terrier

Played for Swansea,that rings a bell...Come on somebody out there put me out of my misery,theres nothing about him on the Accy site..doh doh ... 80s terrier

Sorry 80's, see the forum Terrier24

There is some more info in there. Terrier24

We need a centre forward and have done for the last few years Pharmer Giles

please please be a left sided player htfc4lyfe95



Oh how very disapointed they will be.

Re: Craney Off??
 

Well begs beleive that hudders want him he didnt shine much at swansea nor has shone that much here either - certainly at home which is what i was waiting for, proof in the pudding sort of speak, which ponders why he suddenly came on form in the recent week if he was being scouted:rolleyes:

Re: Craney Off??
 

at least we got more than morcambe offered good piece of business.....i wonder who will slot into midfield now:):)

Re: Craney Off??
 

name a full starting 11 plus subs without craney in it! we had a good team at vale so i dont think id change the back four and at wolves

Re: Craney Off??
 

I am hoping that John Mullin will start to play with proctor. Mullin looked like a good solid player V everton. If he gets his fittness to the maxium level then I am sure he will be a very good replacement... We definitely need a new attacking minded midfielder wether it be on the wing or in the centre!!!

Re: Craney Off??
 

How long before we get "Terriers' fan coming in peace. What's Craney really like?"?

Re: Craney Off??
 

Agreed.

Re: Craney Off??
 

GK: Arthur
RB: Richardson
CB: Murdoch
CB: Edwards
LB: King
RM: Cavanagh
CM: Mullin, J
CM: Procter
LM: Grant
ST: Mullin,P
ST: Clarke

Subs: Dunbavin, Bell, Murphy, Ryan, Onibuje.

Simple as.

Re: Craney Off??
 

mullin not fit enough yet we will have to change formation or play ryan which i think we should

Re: Craney Off??
 

Still, hardly a catastrophe.

Re: Craney Off??
 

dam..blast..*ugger...*hit.....:D:D:D

Well at least he wont be able to score AGAIN against my lot..unless we play 'em in the cup!:(:(:(

Re: Craney Off??
 

:) i for one an't surprised hes gone yes he had two good resent games and two wonderul goals but were was he when we played Aldershot and the back end of last season,good luck to ian:)

Re: Craney Off??
 

its all economics as it is at 90% of clubs, some may not like it, but its fact.:)

Re: Craney Off??
 

where was half the team when we played aldershot! you cant just blame it all on ian! the wall should of defended the free kick better! kenny should of lined the wall up better! mullin should of scored that sitter clarke should of scored etc

Re: Craney Off??
 

All of a sudden I think Ian Craney is fantastic!!! Fantastic for agreeing terms with Huddersfield and buggering off!!! This is the best bit of news I could have had today!!!!

Not only have we got some money out of the deal to go towards the new stand or whatever the club spend it on, we've just freed up an enormous amount of wages by moving our biggest earner on. This means we can use those freed up wages to bring in at least 2 players on long term loans, or god forbid maybe even sign someone on a free!!!

Bye bye Useless, hope you have a good time at the Galpharm, I for one will not miss you.

Re: Craney Off??
 

:eek: who gave the freekick away ??????????;):)

Re: Craney Off??
 

Reading between the lines I get the impression that was your speech of resignation as chairman of the Ian Craney fan club :p

Re: Craney Off??
 

:rofl38: sparkie gee u dont hold back do u pmsl!!!:hehetable

Re: Craney Off??
 

That confirms things for me. Have you seen that freekick since the game? He could have taken that same kick 100 times and not put it right in the top corner again. :rolleyes:

Re: Craney Off??
 

who was defending the free kick who missed a sitter when the keeper had already gone to the ground;)

Re: Craney Off??
 

what a joke if i was ian i would be happy to leave if so called fans like you have only negative things to say about him! most fans are still behind you ian and wish you good luck! :):):):):)

stanley ladies for promotion again :rolleyes:

Re: Craney Off??
 

Very, very good business. I'm surprised Stan Ternent has a hand left to shake with after Eric snatched it off. Ian was great for the club but hasn't been the same player since getting injured at Bradford. He hasn't looked properly fit to me since then and I'll be very surprised if he makes it at Huddersfield, but hope I'm wrong. It's a big opportunity now for Ryan to make the attacking midfielder position his own and I think he will come good.

Re: Craney Off??
 

[quote=MCR ADIM;620727]what a joke if i was ian i would be happy to leave if so called fans like you have only negative things to say about him! most fans are still behind you ian and wish you good luck! :):):):):) :Dwe are!! ok if you say so:rolleyes:;) good luck Ian

Re: Craney Off??
 

:) your spot on there Redash very good business indeed,and your right about J Ryan!!thought he done well both times i've seen him play:)
