Would be nice imho and not just for old times sake….local lad, long in the tooth and worth a punt.
You could see what it meant to be back last Saturday
We should only bring someone back if they are the best option for us especially in our current situation. I'm yet to see a name where that even feels close to being the case. Some people have even suggested giving Karacan a deal - he was last released by Scunthorpe!NathStPaul wrote:Jobs for the boys I guess.
Getting tired of seeing "lets bring back....." at the start of any sentence that involves transfers. No, lets not bring back anyone. Lets have a look at young players without a club who have something to prove.
I think there are certainly a couple of ex players who we would be silly to say no to, even then I would much rather we invest whatever wages we can pay in much younger players who have potential.Stranded wrote:We should only bring someone back if they are the best option for us especially in our current situation.

Think Michael Hector is a player I wouldn't say no to come the end of July if he is still unattached.
Oh yes, forgot about him.Hendo wrote:Would add McCarthy to the list as well.NathStPaul wrote:I think there are certainly a couple of ex players who we would be silly to say no to, even then I would much rather we invest whatever wages we can pay in much younger players who have potential.Stranded wrote:

I am inclined to say Tish as well......i think he left too early and career has faulted ever since. There is a good player in there still.NathStPaul wrote:I think there are certainly a couple of ex players who we would be silly to say no to, even then I would much rather we invest whatever wages we can pay in much younger players who have potential.Stranded wrote:We should only bring someone back if they are the best option for us especially in our current situation.

Alex Smithies is available after his release from Cardiff, he would probably be one of our better options for that role. Although there were rumours we were after a Portuguese keeper not so long ago whose contract was running out this season, his name escapes me.NathStPaul wrote:Oh yes, forgot about him.Hendo wrote:Would add McCarthy to the list as well.NathStPaul wrote: I think there are certainly a couple of ex players who we would be silly to say no to, even then I would much rather we invest whatever wages we can pay in much younger players who have potential.

Even if we don't get him (highly unlikely we will) I'd like us to get a keeper around his age. Think we need a significantly experienced goalkeeper next season with a cool head.
Another one who had undeniable quality but didn’t always translate into performances here. Another good player wasted by ineptitude from managementJohn Smith wrote:Norwood is the absolute business.URZZZZ wrote: Did like the suggestion mind that Norwood wasn’t a loss because both Evans and Kelly were better players.

Thought the last season he was here he was absolutely nailing it under Clarke, but like the rest of the team just totally fell apart as the season went on. Can’t say I was disappointed when he moved but was obvs then superb a season or two down the line for Sheff U (he didn’t pull up any trees for Brighton or Fulham? If I remember rightly)URZZZZ wrote:Another one who had undeniable quality but didn’t always translate into performances here.
