January window

I’ve already spoken to Blackburn about John. It’s just a little bit complicated at the moment, with John’s contract running out at the end of the season. We have got a deal in place to extend his loan until the end of the season but that will depend on what happens in the next 48 hours with regards his future at Blackburn.”

A quote from coley
 
Oldham have a manager - they've appointed John Sheridan for this 3rd attempt at the job! Getting as bad as Martin Allen going back & forth to Barnet :rolleyes:
 
GTF, leave stanley

I really don't get that, He never had a run in the team, His knowledge and experience would have helped the team a great deal. Strange decisions. but Eagles left and as played straight away and assisted in the goals for Portvale. It does raise questions in my mind about our training techniques. when players who can't get on the pitch during our worst run and can go elsewhere and perform. It does make for a question or two to be answered.
 
He never had a run in the team because he couldn't run!

Looked quality when the ball came to him but just didn't have the legs anymore.
 
Don't think GTF could ever be described as speedy Gonzales, even in his heyday with Blackpool. He was just a big strong forward thought good enough to play in the Premiership.
Also mystified that, after scoring on his debut, he was literally side-lined.
I sometimes wonder whether if we got Diego Costa on loan, he'd get more than ten minutes on the field, and then only when we're 1-0 down.
:confused:
 
What a horrible thing to write about our new signings beliefs because you don't agree with them.
Show some respect and get behind the club, such horrible bitter outdated remarks because someone has a different belief to you are not welcome at Accrington Stanley, especially to a new young player who needs all the support possible.

The lad is internet savvy, he may well read this forum. Do you think your spiteful childish comments may provide him with any more encouragement or motivation to wear the Stanley shirt?

Bloody hell :D:D:D:D:D
 
Bobby Moore could never run, didn't make him a bad footballer, he had it upstairs as GTF has.:rolleyes:

We can't get Moore but I'm sure Bobby Charlton still has it upstairs you want to give him a go? He's been without a club for a while so should be happy for a game! :rolleyes:
 
if you don,t try someone you,ll never know what if anything they can bring to the table. eagles and garry t f should have had a run in the side before they were given a contract. it would have saved some money if they didn,t come up to scratch and not having em hanging around here just to fill up a bench.

The trouble is nobody seems to know what exactly is required from a player. Both Eagles and GTF were playmaker and goal scorer. Their experience alone should have entitled them to a good run out. What happens in the training room and pitch does make me wonder if the management can't handle players who have trained differently, Eagles and others could change tactics mid game which didn't seem to fit the plan. Some strange decisions. whatever happens we need to win quickly. or Andy will have a serious decision to consider.
 
I heard that Coley and GTF had a falling out. IF so, then no wonder he didn't get a look in. Regardless of who he is (or was) he has no right to fall out with the Gaffer.

Dunno about Eagles but he didnt look that good on his sporadic forays into the side. He was also unavailable for a while at his own request apparently - would you drop another player to play someone who turns up when he fancies a game?

As for him having three assists for Port Vale in a 4-0 win ... that was a behind closed doors friendly wasn't it? Hardly one for his CV
 
Goalkeeper position - hopefully filled now, let's hope we can keep this one in one piece.

Defence - sorted. Probably short of a couple of full backs but first XI defence is a strong point.

Midfield - 5 please

Striker - Keep Kee and Edwards, ship the rest out.
