Think he did but didn't play very well.

Bunney has had a better offer from Grimsby which I think is good as we dont need a player in that position.
Agreed. I would be happy with Crawford. We need cover in that position and it sounds like he did well under Hill at Bolton last season.

Did he play against us recently?

Bolton are linked with Marcos Maddison ex posh which would be a great signing
He would be crazy to drop to the bottom half of League Two surely ? He is a Championship standard player.

would be ok but not the exiting player Hill was getting at in his interview the other day methinks

Crawford was underwhelming in the recent game, have to hope it was an out of character performance.

There are rumours of David Nugent. I think he is the kind of striker we could do with.
An 18-month deal might tempt him and it would be yet another Scouser returning to Merseyside in the twilight of his career! He won't win anything with Preston this season, but he probably still has the skill and fitness to do well in League Two. The prospect of winning something might tempt him here.

yes I agree he’s a decent player. Hasn’t settled at charlton but surely league one clubs would be lining up for him. Probably just an unfounded rumour

Crawford I know very little about but his record in the SPL is very good and apparently signed for Bolton turning down league one clubs.

Really not sure about Nugent.

Can’t see Hill changing from his current one striker in the middle so unless nugent could play wide (unlikely at his age), I’m guessing he’ll be cover for Vaughan

Might allow us to rotate with the hectic schedule we have coming up.

I would think Nugent will start regularly if he signs

unlike the player himself....
The Preston fans seem to think his legs have gone, but we will see.

It reminds me a bit of the GTF signing. I actually thought he did ok for us, but he was playing in a Brabin side that lacked pace elsewhere and was very pedestrian. If we can get bodies with more energy around Nugent it might work out.
