And will Arter be shit because Gunter has been?
You're intelligent enough to come up with some other reasons without me helping!0 -
I was sent a text saying he had signed. I'm just passing on in good faith. My source has been wrong before. However his dad works at the club and I have no reason to disbelieve him.
However as always, WIOTOS.13 -

Do Canio was what 34 / 35 and was absolute filth when he signed for us, sure Hazzas best days are in the rear view mirror, but surely it doesn’t mean we should never sign a player aged over 30 again, that would be daft?
Ive no idea of how this would work out, Gunter and Watson have not been great signings yet, if we’re being completely honest, Hazza brings bags of experience, doesn’t come with a bad rep character as far as I’m aware, welcome on board son, please announce this soon Charlton!

Watson made 45 appearances for Forest the season before he joined us, and they finished 7th in the Championship that year.There could be perfectly good reasons why Arter's willing to drop to League One and why it hasn't worked out for him at Forest, but I know he had some injury problems last season, so it is a bit of a concern that he may not be the player he was. Hopefully it'll be a case of a new start with a manager that believes in him, and it'll work out well for us.0 -

Yet Gunter gets called up again for the next round of internationals, you don't get called up if your legs have gone.1 -

I have no doubt whatsoever, if we can pull this one off, it will prove to be the coup of the season in this league. Quality, quality player.2

The difference between players like Gunter (and maybe Arter) and Di Canio is that the former two have spent their careers haring about making tackles and the latter had spent his career wafting volleys into the top corner3

Yeah. Hopefully if he signs Arter's technical ability will shine through. But then again, Watson...0

Arter plays international football for NI so should know Washigton.

Forest fans seem to be glad he’s gone but so many players seem to have failed there recently that you have to wonder if it’s really the players that are the problem…3

Very very pleased with this signing.8

Occasionally wonder how many games people actually watch after reading some of the put downs on here.6

Regarding the Arter rumours I’m hearing it will be a season long loan with an option to make it permanent afterwards. My guess is it will be dependent on what league we’re in though.7

Age is interesting as different players decline in their late 20's whilst others continue until their 40's. It also depends on the level in which they played.
I saw Edgar Davids play for Barnet in L2 and he played as a creative player and a totally different style to his hey day, but at that level he was different gravy.
In my time our record with older players has been mixed. Some good players in their 30's who did well for us include Harry Cripps, Terry Naylor, Leighton Phillips, John Bumstead, Steve Gatting, Garry Nelson, Mark Bowen, Mark Bright, Christian Dailly and Darren Pratley.6 -

It’s a shame for Albie, I really really want him to do well, but he’ll be 22 this season, has been part of the first team squad for four seasons and has 60+ league appearances. He isn’t a super young, fresh out of the academy player, and I just don’t think we’ve seen the progress. He was given the number 10 shirt and started the season in the first XI which was a great opportunity for him to nail down a starting place but it really hasn’t worked so far. I would like to give him a little bit longer, and he’ll probably get that as Lee will need a couple of weeks to get up to speed but if things don’t improve quickly it could be the beginning of the end of Albie’s time at the club.0

Clare, Arter
DJ, Lee, Kirk
Now we’re talking. Much much better and fair play they realised early on our midfield is crap.2
