Comings and goings

[bring back the cowshed!]

If we'd had the present owners, management and squad at the start of the season, we could now be challenging for promotion!

 

[Boz]

This is an awesome signing. Very pleased.

Its amazing when you look back just 6 months ago. We were at one point the worst team in the four divisions with a hopeless team and manager.

I know there's still a lot to do this season but its great to see passionate owners trying to rescue this great club. About bloody time..

Agree with this sentiment. Interesting to reflect that over half the team on Saturday were not at PP at the start of the season. Thanks to Mark and Nicola. Who would have thought this would all be going on now when I was watching Mark in action forty odd years ago!
An interesting snippet from the BBC website suggesting that Iain may not be the only player on Saturday who has been playing in the Indian League!

G Donnelly to Southport.....

 

[Sparky]

Will be interesting how Donnelly gets on - certainly out of his depth at L2 level.

Re George Donnelly, I think both clubs have done good business and I predict he'll do well at Haig Avenue.

I would be surprised as hes just poor but at least hes gone for now

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

It is surprising that Donnelly is the first of the transfer listed player to find a club, as he is probably the poorest of all of them. Still no sign of permanent moves for any of the others.

Donnelly had quite a decent record in non-league football, so some sense in this.
I'm a bit surprised Baggie and Richards haven't had offers, though as Eliot had a 2 year contract, it may be harder to shift him.

 

[Ian]

Thanks goodness he's out of the frame, terrible even at this level. Onwards and upwards!

 

[Ian]

Richards has gone. Not one of our worst players but certainly not good enough moving forward. Hume is cleared to play now too so will be interesting to see what Micky has planned on Sat.

 

[Ian]

Ohh i just realised hes joined rob edwards at cheltenham.

 

[bigmart]

Baggie also left too, leaves only Rowe left of those Micky wanted to get rid of.

 

[bigmart]

Rowe gone as well

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Baggie is apparently going to Macclesfield. I hope Rowe finds a club soon, as he was arguably the most promising of the three.

Not the worst players to turn out for us by any means, but we have better options now.

 

[drwhoman]

Richards is presumably the replacement for Terry Gornall who has returned to Accrington for a third time! I think I am right in saying that all the players considered surplus to requirements have now gone? On a positive note I see than Iain Hume now has international clearance and will play on Saturday if chosen.

 

[drwhoman]

Accrington have also signed Bruna who was released in September as not being fit enough.

 

[Boz]

Richards showed promise in pre-season, didn't see enough of him once the season started to form an opinion. Get the impression it's not just down to ability that he's moved on. Good luck to him, Abs and Rowe, save if they're playing against us.

It's also being said Brighton won't extend Fenelon's loan, even though they might be borrowing Shaun Wright-Phillips from QPR.

It would be a surprise if Hume started Saturday, as unsure about his match-fitness, but he may well be on the bench

I think once we signed Hume, Fenelon would struggle to make the team. While I think Fenelon added a lot to the team, I'm sure Hume will add more.
