Donald says 1 transfer incoming could end up being 3

Not a bad player at all.
You won’t find many decent footballers like him.
First week at Swindon was doing charity work in the community.
Would have liked him back and doing well at Lincoln.
A good signing.

I don't think we've been linked with him anywhere and probably aren't interested in him. Just one that has caught the eye a bit in liking to get forward but good to hear other peoples opinions who have seen him a lot more
 


Talk of us Eastleigh bringing in midfielder and forward on loan from you guys assum their probably going to be youngster told potential announcements this week

We have Mcgeady, McGuire, watmore, Gooch, Embleton.

Like it or not we aren’t bringing more wingers in.

Watmore is never fit, Embleton has been ditched to the reserves and the other 3 all started together yesterday. If any of them pick up injuries or need a rest we are looking at changed shape back to a back 5 again.

We had no wide player on the bench yesterday and had to put a hopeless striker on and change to a more attacking formation, to take off McGeady who was shattered, when we had our backs to the wall.

It's not ideal, like.
 
In an ideal world we’d be able to shift Baldwin (our of favour), Flanagan (poor) and Loovens (finished) and bring in LB, CB, RB.

It would give us more balancewe’re worried about depth then keep Baldwin as 4th choice

O’Nien could then act as further FB cover, while having more chance to establish himself in midfield

Doesn’t seem this will happen mind

We need a left back with some urgency, more so than any other position.

We need a good solid 6ft 2in+ centre half and rid ourselves of two from Flanagan, Baldwin, Loovens.

Then a wide player.

could do with cover at right back is Onien is going to be used in midfield, maybe a loan.

alright saying we don't need defenders after today, but we do - left back and a centre half.

This this and then this again

It’s clear as day this is what’s required. Whether we can make it happen is another matter
 
If we get 3 in and none leave(the Don said more likely being 2 tbf and can't see anyone leaving except young uns on loan) , that will give us a 26 man first team squad not including the likes of Kimpioka and Sammutt.

So those fans/supporters wanting us out of the LC early and the excellent much vaunted leasing. com trophy really can't put up much of an argument for doing so can they?

We have a big enough squad to cope with league matches and Cup runs, and gives possible game time they wouldn't normally get to likes of Ethan Robson, Embleton and Hume, plus the likes of Loovens, Balders etc.

Seems like two minutes since Baldwin was getting rave reviews and said to be too good for League One. I am sure they would love to get shot of Loovens and the one from Flanagan and Baldwin but the hard part is finding someone to take them. They would likely want a fee for Baldwin.

Don’t think he started their first game, came on a sub. Their chairman is playing games with the price they’ve put on his head, 1 year left on his contract and a £2.5 million release clause. Definitely won’t get that price, time for Stewart to do some wheeling and dealing.

He already has 2 assists.

I think we're desperate for an attacking player also. I think that's the difference in making this process easier and it being another tough old season. We need more goals/creativity in our side.

Spot on. Without McGeady we will struggle, without both McGeady and Maguire, it would be very difficult. We need more creativity/goals.

If we are playing 4-2-3-1 like we were on Saturday, there’s a good chance 3 of those 5 players will be playing every week. Add to that the doubts over Watmore’s fitness and we could have one player to cover 3 positions.

It’s probably unlikely we’ll bring in another winger, and we could probably play O’Nien or McNulty as one of the 3 behind the striker if we needed to, but it would definitely benefit the squad.
