Wiki says he's a CAM? Why would we need another Midfielder when we're trying to offload 2x midfielders now as we're overloaded there. Doesn't sound legit to me

Can play up front and on either wing too. Good player but always carrying something.

An injury? The can when things go wrong? The water bottles? A sack of potatoes? Too heavy a burden? The rest of his team? Not enough money when it's his round?
I was chatting to someone last week (Sunderland fan) and he reckons us and a few others are looking at Jack Diamond 🤔 plays on the left wing so not sure whether to believe it or not, unless Kirk moves on.

13 league goals on loan at Harrogate last season, so got some talent. A London move might not appeal though

Not the first time his name has been mentioned within these pages - TransferMarkt suggests he has played across the whole of the front line

Oh good I can use this one again.
It wouldn't be a loan because diamonds are forever.

I think he’s been linked with us before. Unless he can play up front he’s the type I’d expect to be on our list if we need to replace Kirk or CBT.
I don't agree that a striker won't come to us as he won't play every week.... now there are five subs of course they will.... might spur Stockley on as well... still don't think he fits the system though.
Plus of course if a striker is coming on loan then you'd assume it's because he's got almost zero chance of playing at his own club. So playing a bit for us is obviously better than nothing at wherever he is.
I think there is a great opportunity for someone to come in and make the CF position their own.
agreed - as has been said a million times - stockley is decent at what target men do - but he isn't ideal for what we are doing and is a definite position to be upgraded if we are to get promoted - regardless of all the guff about others scoring and wide forwards arriving at the back post and all that - if you don't have a striker playing on the shoulder, you've lost half your attacking options
Remains to be seen if those at the club feel the same. I think they may have snookered themselves by making Stockley captain. Having said that Pearce was dropped fairly frequently
Stockley comes across as a really nice bloke but whilst playing all he seems to do is give a thumbs up when acknowledging a good ball he failed to connect to or waving his arms about and whining. As good a target man he undoubtedly is, it doesn't suit this game plan.
Stockley to me seems a good captain off the pitch, but is a bit moany and self centred on the pitch for a captain
Far bigger problems for him are his pace and inability to score from open play with his feet.
Nothing against Stockley personally (seems a great bloke) but we simply need our main striker to be able to score more than 1-2 goals a season from open play with their feet.
If the only service you give him is 30 yards from goal with his back to it then yes he isn't our man. Fact is we've created 1 chance per game for him. Our crossing is shite and from the wrong areas
So, TS headed back to the US after the Cambridge game. I thought he would’ve waited until after the end of the window had closed unless the business is done? New signings lined up? Who’s in charge? Should we be worried?
TS is currently based in England until at least the end of this year, if he's gone to the US he will be back shortly.
That’s unusual for him isn’t it? Could fuel the rumours he’s looking for investors or a sale…

What rumours?
You mean the made up ones on Twatter?
Along with other places.
I’m not saying they’re definitely true but I wouldn’t write it off entirely. He doesn’t give the impression he’s able to find the club for years to come. He’s aiming to break even next season for one thing.

Wouldn't anyone running a business want to break even?! It seems a bit insane that that should be held against him

In "normal people" terms, he's a very rich man, in football terms he's not so much. Certainly not a pauper (or a chancer like Southall and that mob) but his pockets are far from infinite.
I would be very surprised indeed if he WASN'T at least looking at the possibility of other investors coming in, even if only speculatively at this time.

I agree - all the signs are there really. Doesn't mean it needs to invite vitriol but that's what it looks to me.

I certainly don't hold it against him but the truth of the matter is that barring a truly miraculous set of circumstances you don't get promoted on a break even budget.
I'm not saying that this is a good thing and it's certainly not Sandgaard's fault specifically but he seems to have taken a very long time to realise there's no magic money tree or secret formula to getting profit and promotion in League 1. It's one OR the other, at best, or neither at worst.

Got a song sorted at least

However I remember well the days when you know where you were with DD! (great adverts back then, shame about the beer)
Not sure if he could handle the move to a bigger club like Charlton and his attitude and disciplinary record stink but he does know where the goal is.
