Takeover News/Rumours

Status
Not open for further replies.
None of the strikers have proved they can score goals in the last couple of seasons.

That's a valid point, however:

1. I think a different manager may have the nous to recognize this fact and try to get goals from elsewhere in the team rather than hoping Wyke learns to play football. Without him on the field we would have room to try something different like Gooch/Maguire up front with Embleton, O'Nien, Dan Neil, etc given a chance to take up the supporting roles.

2. Grigg has proven himself more than capable at other clubs playing differently to how we do. We might want to try and play to his strengths at some point.

I like point 1 but hate point 2, I don't want to see that fucker playing again, unless it's against us.
 
Sorry, he got briefed on something else that has happened to do with the takeover. not sure what though

The interested parties watched the last match and have died of boredom so the takeover is now off?

I'm frustrated with him also. He's been awful, just pointing out we could possibly utilize him better playing differently.

he had 2 glorious, goal poaching opportunities last week and completely butchered both of them. Not unlucky or owt else just completely butchered, no composure, no desire or determination to score just complete meltdown in front of goal.
he can’t do the simple thing well, which in this shit league is all he needs to do and he keeps failing

100%

Chances are numerous since he's been here.

He's shit.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting we pin our hopes on him. However, in a team where he's getting numerous chances in a game rather than one or two I think there is a chance he knocks a couple in and starts heading in the right direction.
 
That’s a good shout. High quality U23s is the quick way around the salary cap. There are other immediate things they can do as well.

1. Quality U23s as you say.
2. Pay up the contracts of Grigg, O’Brien, Graham, Dobson, McGlouchlin.
3. Appoint a market leading data analytics firm to identify recruitment.
4. Pay up PP contract and replace.
5. Appoint high quality football/business people to senior positions throughout the club.
I like your manifesto, put it to the testo
 
I see Bob is posting over the road now :lol:
He’s trying hard to seem normal
That veneer will wear off soon enough.

He’s absolutely f***ing shot man. And shite.
 
Alan Nixon in the S*n is saying that American financier Matty Pauls is working on a bid to takeover

Same article saying Pearson and Phillips could be in frame to takeover from Parkinson
