Sutekh Dann, BOO and Moore are the three known injuries at the moment. Another left back really has to be an urgent priority this week as time is being lost with regard to team set ups etc.

Should never have got shot of Obita.


Don't think it was the wrong decision at the time - he managed 14 starts for us that season - and even less than that the following year. It's only last season that he was back playing regularly.

I don't think a club in our financial position can afford to take a chance on a player struggling to return from injury

JLows new column suggests BOO is knocking about for a while, whilst we are keen to sign Hutchinson

Less likely to sign Fulton though

Oxford United set to give trialists Jerome Sinclair and Jodi Jones a chance to impress tonight in a pre-season friendly away at Hungerford.


The same Jodi Jones that played for us against Benfica - keeping his options open or Ince has shown him the door?

Imagine the latter - not really a massive need in his position unless he showed he was head and shoulders above what we have. He didn't.

Yep. Said this at the time. Obita has since proved he was over his injury problems.

Jerome Sinclair is still only 25!

But has only scored 6 league goals in his career, which makes Jordan Ibe seem successful.

Exactly. Can’t be just signing players for the sake of it. Which is odd because if true, Reading are about to sign Shane Long :lol:

Bloomin’ marvellous
Is this a random thought or another ‘official’ leak ?

If that's just speculation, I haven't been impressed with him for a couple of seasons now, he was poor at Watford last season (granted so were they) and he looked completely out of shape when I saw him play. Had his personal issues in the past as well so not sure how that would work out as well as wages.

Obviously has ability, but also seems to have quite a lot of problems as well. Said this 12 months ago with Drinkwater though as well.

Yes he is a left back - used to be a very good one.

We're going to have a starting XI of over 30s at this rate, if he were to come our way.

But him on loan with say BO-O signed as initial back up is probably the best we can ask for at the moment.

Hasn't he got a fairly questionable attitude?

Hasn’t he got rather unrealistic earning requirements ?

Anyone wanting loads of money won’t even get a phone call.
Attitude means a lot of different things, Rose has had issues with depression for sure. I wouldn’t want someone who skipped training, was always out clubbing or sulked if they were dropped but I’ve no problem with someone who has opinions, speaks their mind and thinks they can play (as long as they can)

Suspect attitude, known issues with his mental health iirc, former name in the way down, aging... if he could play to his potential its a no brainer, but I fear he'd be a bit of a shambles.
