Pulled out today with a "Knock", that's what the CET did, put the knock in inverted commas.. Perhaps I'm reading too much into that!

covcity4life · Jul 14, 2012

shit..is he playing today?

gutting news,wanted to see him play for ccfc today,hope this doesnt mean deals falling apart

junglej13 · Jul 14, 2012

To be honest I did wonder why we took this guy on trial and announced it when they kept malaga's name under wraps. Jennings had a number of teams interested in him. We should have signed him straight away.

No not playing today as per the original post he has pulled out with a knock.

covcity4life · Jul 14, 2012

hope its just that and not new club in for him, motherwell fans are distraught hes going

knew one new signing/trialist would get injured before this game, just knew it.

castlevaleskyblue · Jul 14, 2012

Shame was looking forward to seeing him play today, hope it is just a knock. wasn't he supposed to have rented a flat in cov?

covcity4life · Jul 14, 2012

anyone got any new info on this? is is legit or is deal breaking down?

ruined my buzz this news has. we desperatly need centre midfielders

sw88 · Jul 14, 2012

I hope it doesn't mean we've lost out but it doesn't look good. Although players to get Knocks now and again do who knows it might be a genuine injury.

torchomatic · Jul 14, 2012

I would imagine it is a genuine knock. If he was off we'd find about it anyway so I'm sure they wouldn't make up an injury. Hope we do get him, sounds useful.

Corrected

woody11462 · Jul 14, 2012

I feel a bit dubious bout any deal now. And to be honest think the first site to break the story was BBC so it may have been his agent leaking the info to try and get a better deal/other clubs interested. Hope this comes off, feel we need this type of player for next season.

Grendel · Jul 14, 2012

He must have a slight injury. If he was looking elsewhere why would there be any secrecy he would just leave and move on.

woody11462 · Jul 14, 2012

His agent could be doing talking behind the scenes. But say for example a championship team is currently negotiating a contract with his agent, they don't want/need to take him on trial, surely they would be asking for him to pull out of any friendlies so not to scupper the deal.

To be fair that is probably right, AT would of said we are looking at other targets or something like that, there's no reason to make an injury up

SkyBlueScottie · Jul 14, 2012

To be fair he is probably protecting himself. No contract with anybody what if the worst happens and he is out long term = no income.

CovLis86 · Jul 14, 2012

Didn't thorn say there was no strains, knocks or pulls in the squad just yesterday? So, sadly I do feel a little suspicious. Hopefully for no reason though.

thechase · Jul 14, 2012

Surely tho if we want to sign him its in our interests not to risk injury too. He may well have picked up the injury in training yesterday.

wingy · Jul 14, 2012

They've done two practice matches in the last two days ,completely conceivable he picked one up yesterday.

This. Self preservation.

tippex9 · Jul 14, 2012

This is like whenever Westwood was out injured he'd apparently signed for someone else. Was always back in the side next time out.

Diehard Si · Jul 14, 2012

So if he's not playing and has impressed sign him up. If not just let him go. If Malaga gets a 3 year deal on 1 training session then Jennings can't have impressed much as he's been on trial all week?

torchomatic · Jul 14, 2012

But ,Jennings could have had his "knock" ten minutes after the interview. He can't see into the future, can he? Now, if I look out my window I can safely say that it's not raining, but does that means if it rains later then I was lying?

Putting "knock" in the paper just means it's a direct quote doesn't it?! How to make a mountain out of a mole hill!

Thats exactly what it is. Why would the Telegraph be talking in code?

Chipfat · Jul 15, 2012

Wonder if he is on the bus for the tour of Scotland,, be a shame if he doesn't sign would of been a decent signing

sw88 · Jul 15, 2012

I hope so. Not that I'll know what he looks like if he is there for the games. Might have to google him to get an idea

I am pretty sure that Malaga was not signed off the back of a solitary training session.

wingy · Jul 15, 2012

Whatevers going on will be down to how much money.The other two trialists we're kept quiet , yet we hear about Jennings ,agent at work??

An update on Steve Jennings...

Even though he hasn't travelled up to Scotland he is still at Ryton and doing fitness work with Cameron and Deegan.

To me this signals that he is signing and we are just waiting for him to get fit. Where's Cody btw, training with these three?

Yup.... cody catching up as well.

I think Jennings is pretty certain as well as Edjenguele. Probably be sorted by the time squad returns from Scotland.

If these 2 sign (admittedly this is without having seen either of them play) - I think we need 2 strikers and maybe a pacey winger. I wouldn't be surprised if we only make maybe another 1 signing and then look to use the loan market in September.

Chipfat · Jul 16, 2012

If Jennings is at Ryton i would say its positive about him signing, my only hope is we add another 3 which is the CB on trial and 2 FW. Losing Keogh is a blow but i never thought he was staying anyway cash in replace and add we will be ok....

AFCCOVENTRY · Jul 16, 2012

My thinking is that Thorn said he hopes 2-3 more players in over the next few weeks. 2 of that is Jennings and Edge probably.

The 3rd would be the striker who Thorn said he hoped would be in after Scotland trip.

To get a proven goalscorer is going to cost money. There aren't any prolific scorers around on a free to my knowledge.

The striker hold up must be due to Keogh sale. Once that deal is complete i suspect some money will be given to buy a striker.

Shame we missed out on Collins though.
