Summer transfer window 2024 (14 Viewers)

[Flying Fokker]

James was born in Bacup. It’s a good omen.

Maybe these guys need the kick up the arse, had two windows at least to get this sorted, is Doug poking his nose in too much?

Can't imagine Doug is sitting in on all the recruitment meetings.

Matty James would be a pretty poor indicator of the clubs transfer business in the window just gone.

Agreed, very poor from the recruitment department, deserve criticism.

id take him though, which sums it up. I think he could be a shrewd signing right now.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Is our recruitment actually that good?

probably the most stupid comment posted in the last week.

We have Haji, Simms, MVE signed last year who we could sell for £10m+

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

We went from Hamer, to Stamenic, to Browne, to Matty James. And pretty sure we're going to finish on Fleck.

Funny you say that…

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

Think James would do the likes of Rudoni the world of good. He looks lost at times

Do you ever say anything even remotely positive?

Compare our squad from 22/23 to the current one and you should have your answer.

Unequivocally, it’s been good.

We don’t know the ins and outs but if we couldn’t identify the ‘right’ player at the right price, then it’s perhaps best we wait it out.

James as a placeholder signing wouldn’t be terrible. Played 43 games for a decent Bristol team last season and adds a lot of intangible assets - as we seen in 20/21.

You have to be pragmatic in the transfer market and if that means it takes 2-3 windows to get the best long term signings… so be it.

He’d do both Torp and Eccles a world of good. Robins put it quite accurately that our press was off - I don’t think either Eccles or Torp are capable of ‘leading’ that midfield area. Certainly not as well as Sheaf.

 

[long way home]

Think it was the Liverpool lad McConnell??

He would of been the one to get and Liverpool were ready to let him leave. He should be back fit in Nov so i wouldn't be shocked we go back in in Jan..

If wer‘e seriously considering james what about fleck ? Same age, maybe James ahead on fitness he’d be ready to play

I think we will finish top half

No , for me it's one or the other

Free agents being linked to their former clubs must be the easiest football gossip to come up with

 

[quinn1971]

No , for me it's one or the other

Sorry, that’s what I meant. wouldnt want both, thought maybe a fit enough fleck would be the better option ?

Not for me, Norwood was ahead of Fleck last season for Sheffield Utd and Norwood is now at a league one team

 

[pusbccfc]

Fleck would be hilarious

No thanks

1 James
2 nothing
3 Fleck

why would we bring in an injury prone player to support an injured player.

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Fleck would be hilarious

In an unfunny way

 

[robbiethemole]

Fleck's leg is in a worse state than Sheaf's ankle, so NO from me!!

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Funny you say that…

No chance I don’t think

If Matty James doesn't sign, we Know who to Blame.

Nothing cryptic in it. Just agreed with the post

Any new snippets mate ?

If we’re scratching around for Fleck I’d far rather chance Andrews

Would hope we are nowhere near fleck

We had to bring on allen on Saturday, to try and turn it around, is it really that bad an option

Yes

 

[quinn1971]

Doesn’t really matter does it, we won’t be getting either

 

[quinn1971]

Philip billing to matty James the most cov thing ever

Yes

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Philip billing to matty James the most cov thing ever

Assuming that Billing was ever really a target.

Sounds like the club were definitely working on some sort of package
