    Kilkenny would be a great signing.

    Bring in kisnorbo and you could call us Leeds.

    Zads appeared to me to give up after Joel signed.

    Griff as captain is reason enough to member up this season.

    Djulbic the striker as opposed to Djulbic the almost 2m tall central defender?

    couldnt gaf who the captain is. Just a statement by the coach who he thinks the best player is. Taking out zads and keeping some of the other muppets isnt the answer.

    Why not? Zads just motors around the pitch, pings the occasional long shot, hacks a few opponents. Maybe Stubbins doesn't need that in his team, maybe Zads is surplus to requirements. Maybe Stubbins has someone lined up that far exceeds his ability and Zad actually WANTS out (which the article suggests with the mentions of long term security) and we won't stand in his way?

    Cornflakes and Flores - Stubbins is getting the band back together. Look for Van Dijk as striker announced in the next few months then.

    Yes. I think this was mentioned a few weeks back.

    I'm really not willing to write anyone off yet. If they are stubbing men, he will stay or survive based on their performances. If he thinks he can get the best out of them, great.

    Except for hutcho or Simon. They can get stuffed

    Don't know why I said Van Dijk. That left winger bloke that played for us part of last year also spent a season or so under Stubbins. Nathan Burns or something?

    I mentioned it on here a few weeks back that a pretty good source said we're close to signing him.

    So, what are peoples thoughts on the three gusy we're rumoured to be signing (Flores, Cornthwaite and Harold)?

    Personally, if Flores is 100% he is top quality, Cornthwaite works well when his other CB is a quicker, more skillful player, which I feel Jaliens is and I don't really have an opinion of Harold

    A pissant, a Gypo and some bloke off Neighbours.
    No thanks, should sign Stu.

    Bring him home Tinks.

    Yes to cornthwaite, maybe to flores, no to Harold.

    Need height and believe kew would Marshall cornthwaite well.

    Would like the jets to uncover another diamond but ok with Flores if fully fit and cheap enough so that we good maybe snag burns as well.

    No to Harold, does some decent running and off the ball stuff but not much end product. Virgili already has this covered for us.

    Only reason to sign Harold is to stop the bloke scoring against us

    If that's our recruiting strategy we're going to need a bigger squad.

    Your complaint appears to be that getting rid of a technical liability whose best attributes were getting fired up, running around a lot and showing a bit of passion isn't the answer to our inability to pass the football and create attacking chances...

    It's not like we have a shortage of midfielders of his level and it might mean we actually spend almost TEN PERCENT of the entire cap on someone who can do more than hack opponents down on a regular basis.
