Gianfranco Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 I’m expecting Supermarv rumours, cryptic clues from Onthefringes and the good Captain or someone else stalking our Instagram followers tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never did see if Higgy's goal was really offside...It was nowhere near offside. I saw footage after the game that someone had taken on their phone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YassinMoutaouakil Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 It was weird seeing a Scotland u21 squad the other day with no Fir Park contingent, definitely does feel like we are between generations at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RostokMcSpoons Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 (edited) As I was coming back from Leeds last Thursday, about the third turning after leaving the hotel was, and I kid you not, 'Gotts Road' It's a sign, I tell ye! (A road sign, but they're the best sort, aren't they?) Edited August 30, 2021 by RostokMcSpoons 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowsdower Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Barrow are a league team? Jeez. You'd like to think we'd be a better prospect than some league 2 teams, also seems like a big drop for someone who was highly touted at one point. I think we're saving Johannsen for a last minute tweet. Either that, or we'll repeat the Roberts announcement from January to a slightly different reaction. Road signs are shite, my street is named after my father in law. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re Gotta - Going by thoaw reports it looks like a choice of play closer to home (Oldham/Barrow) or take a jump and move away to a different area and different league. Not every player fancies the move away from friends and family I guess. He looks useful from the clips so hopefully he does fancy it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_oats Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 We were first rumoured to have been interested in Gotts at the start of the month so one thing I think we can say is that we've been true to our word in terms of making a proper go at getting our targets. The majority of our signings seem to be players we've been in dialogue with for a while before they've been announced. Anyway. Deadline day eh? I was busy thinking about Gotts, Gotts, Gotts I was busy dreaming about Gotts Gotts, Gotts (XCX) Head was spinning thinking about Gotts Make it happen Burrows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stu92 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 On paper, a highly-rated Bielsa prodigy in midfield sounds just what the doctor ordered. The fact that nobody other than bottom end League 2 clubs seem to be interested in him does seem a bit odd if he's as good as we're hoping he is. Perhaps reflects the financial situation in England post-Covid that there aren't more interested, or perhaps Gotts is just a League 2 player that came through at a top youth academy? Who knows, but either way it would be good to get him if we've been chasing this long. On Sondre's announcement, it seems slightly weird that the club haven't announced anything after the selling club have confirmed it publicly. Makes more sense if personal terms/medical are still to be concluded. From my many years of playing Football Manager, I'm sure that you can sign a player prior to the work permit being given in situations like this where the window shuts before the permit is given but the risk with that is that you're stuck with a player on the payroll that is ineligible to play any games for you if it doesn't work out. I think someone explained the process in much greater detail a few pages back, the club must be confident that it's just an administrative hoop to jump through at this stage more than anything else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
