    Boyle seems to be another Scottish Yorkshire man according to Wiki.

    I always thought Tucker was unrealistic. This does seem to be more plausible.

    Boyle is a bit of goal scoring CB. Think he’s scored 20 goals for Cheltenham since he joined.

    Thoughts on Boyle ?

    Bit too close to Bogle for my liking

    Boyle had a knee injury which ruled him out for the last 3 months of the season (bar a couple of games before the injury returned)

    Injury prone ticks another box in addition to the height and age test.

    Sounds like a perfect fit for us

    @addick59 said on the wrong thread:

    CH in building today told it is Tucker from Gillingham.But also been told we are in for Norwich lad we had on loan.Exciting week this week hopefully.
    If we sign both Tucker and Famewo I'd be amazed. Would be setup very well at CB with Pearce and Inniss already in the building and Barker hopefully getting a bit more game time.
    I’ll be very surprised if we don’t bring in a good RCB and a good LCB. Can’t rely on Pearce too much and Inniss needs strong competition (especially important given his injury record).
    I've heard Will Boyle from Cheltenham is the centre back we are talking to today
    Nephew of Trevor Kettle?
    An unwatched T Kettle, Will Boyle.

    I have actually played against Will Boyle's dad, god I feel old!

    His is Simon Walton's cousin. 
  • Cawley says Macgillivray isn't the player he was referring to the other day when he said one was close. That player is a CM.

    Boyle could be available for around £200k.

    6 ft 3 and left footed, so if he signs then I wouldn’t expect Famewo to.

    Also means it’s not impossible for us to sign Tucker, assuming he’s right footed.

    No... Cawley is saying: "C (Craig) M (MacGillivray) was the one I knew was close"
  • When are we going to sign some non scoring forwards? 
  • After asking a few questions of others. Boyle is very dominant in the air. Boyle, Stockley and Inniss would be quite an Ariel threat at set pieces.

    Charles Manson close apparently

    I don't wanna be negative cause it's a good signing on paper, but to do a stay 'tuned at 11am' for a replacement goalie is completely OTT. You're expecting proper marquee signings for that, especially when the leaks are already out 
    Don't be silly. We've just signed Pompey's POTY.
    Perfectly aware of who he is and what he's done. On paper though we have stayed the same, we lost our number 1 and gained a new one on a free. It's not a marquee signing you would do a tweet like that for. That's all I'm saying.

    "We will have an announcement at 11 but don't get too excited."
    That is not what I'm trying to imply. Just keep it simple, tweet it out in one go, don't do a teaser tweet for a goalkeeper on a free when we've just lost one. You save those tweets for the transfer fee signings or when you have actually strengthened the squad. 

    I don't have an issue with the signing just the manner of the tweet, it's unnecessary imo.

    How that's earned 6 lols is beyond me, are people that ticklish on here?

    The squad was strengthened by signing a goalkeeper.
    I don't fancy our chances playing without a goalie.

    lmao, Famewo was an absolute disaster with ball at feet. even ignoring his excellent assist for Wimbledon he was constantly putting it out of play and hitting long balls 20 yards away from the forward

    This has definitely gone over the head and becoming borderline petty posting now. 

    We lost our number 1, we got another number1. We weakened and then went back to where we were, we didn't strengthen, that could only be guess work at this point. 

    I am happy with the signing, just pointing out it's crap content from the comms team. Don't see how that's so hard to understand here

    As far as I'm concerned we haven't "strengthened" anything.  Since Watson & Pierce (re) signed all that's happened is that we have lost a striker & a goalkeeper & added a goalkeeper. 

    A net position of minus 1.

    Yay for small mercies.
