I thought JFC may play today as anyone interested in him would likely be keen to see him in action to assess where he is on the road to recovery /whether he could manage a whole game
I remember Boyle when Cheltenham played us last season. Ugly sod easy to remember. Seemed to hold it together for them but doubt it's him we are getting.
One of the defenders Huddersfield are apparently after is Helik at Barnsley. And with Boyle’s former manager now with the Tykes, that swap might make the most sense for all parties.
Fingers crossed therer's more excitement than just one loan defender coming in.
It’s getting tense - I still believe we can sign an established forward who fits our system - a lot say it’s impossible, it can’t be done, never has been done - I’m reading comics? dreaming too big and should be happy with a centre back / left sided job lot but no, I’m after the missing link - the final piece of the jigsaw - I’m praying cel cel is wrong and this striker will improve our first 11, not just our squad 🙏🤞👍
I don't think we are signing a striker.
I’ve got a nasty feeling u might be right
So 51 minutes before this message , everything is positive re forward now not. what has changed your mind.

For me I still believe forward coming in.
Foward yes, upgrade/direct replacement for Stockley not likely.

Well if we don't mind taking a gamble there's a young lad up at City whose doing okay, Haaland or something? Don't know if he passes the CL height test though and never done it in League One before.

I was going to have a quick scout tonight but they subed him as our game finished. Brought some lad Kevin de something on. Manager obviously doesn't fancy him if he is on the bench, could be worth asking about.

I thought TS comments regarding a forward were quite positive. At least he's actually seen for himself and acknowledged that our forward play breaks down due to not having someone playing on the shoulder of the defenders and I'm intrigued to see who we bring in! Don't think it will be Haaland but hopefully will turn out to be an astute acquisition. Fingers crossed boys and girls. I honestly feel like it could most certainly be the difference in this seasons aspirations for promotion.

Stockley also limits our high press, he's not quick and agile enough to do it effectively.
Comments
He’s a potential option though.
The Mirror doesn't rate him. It's a no from me.
Striker 95% done. . . Experienced at this level and has pace. Loan deal. Won’t be a last minute announcement tomorrow.
Working on a centre half. Needs a few things to fall in to place to happen.
Outgoings:
Gilbey didn’t want to go to Lincoln, no other offers in.
C Mcg offered more money than he is on here by Wrexham but turned it down.
Miles Leaburn. Champ club interested but knocked back.
Sean Clare. Agent looked for a move but club want to build around him. Has a figure he will move for but nowhere near what has been muted so far.
