  • How about Kane coming in so we can sell someone....Lavelle ? Ness ?? 
    Todd Arthur Lucien Kane (born 17 September 1993) is an English professional footballer who plays for Coventry City in the Championship.

    He plays primarily as a 
    right back, but can also play at right midfielder or left back.
    He is also eligible to represent Scotland.


    Well, that's what Wiki says.


  • Mattie Pollock from Watford May be the next one in ?
    @RonnieMoore       Is that your usual Pollocks? :smile:


  • Kane can, and has played LB too.
    so RB/LB & possibly RM?

    presumably we stick him LB and get sess to play natural RB
    And the Blackburn lad? Thought he’d come in as LB with Sess switching to RB leaving Kane as the spare.
  • According to an ardent gillingham fan I sometimes work with he reckons gillingham are in for macgillivray jaiyesimi and stockley but stockley has an offer in Australia but Gillingham has put in the better offer. How true this is will pan out in the next fortnight.

    gillingham could solve a lot of our problems - always been useful like that 
    Yes , come on Gillingham sign Bonne 
  • It can’t be Bonne for Stockley and no other strikers.
    We’re already short with Stockley. 

    It’s going to be thought isn’t it…?

  • Like the Kane and Edun signings , gives us options in positions we really needed options. Would expect Sess and Edun to be the main starting fullbacks and Kane rotates in for Sess as he's had a few injuries. 

    Not convinced at all by Bonne.

    I welcome these moves as long they don't mean any key player is leaving.Both Bonne and Kane have a six month window to earn a contract.

    In squad terms I see Kane as a replacement for Egbo as Manny has a season ending injury.Adding Edun would mean that we have three fit specialised full back options plus Clare as a utility defender/ midfielder.

    I would still like a couple of others so that we can build a squad ready to kick on next season.
    We are building a squad of players that will be out of contract at the end of the season. By the end of the window we will probably have about eight players contracted for next season and one might be Stockley who we don’t really want. In the summer we could need another massive recruitment drive and maybe, hopefully not though, looking for a new manager. Not any long term planning going on.

    Unfortunately that's probably currently because no-one currently knows who is going to be running the show/footing the bills in the summer. Methven and Co? Sandgaard? A.N. Other?

    Its not a great situation but not one the actual hands on side of scouting/recruitment are to blame for or able to change. Its purely makeshift and make-do and that's what they have to work with.

    dded to the fact that most of the players we've paid money for and brought in on longer deals, are the one's we're trying to get rid of !!!  :D

    Where is this coming from that Bonne is signing a six-month contract? Hard to see that happening
  • Have I missed something? Why are people talking about Bonne only getting a contract until the end of the season.
    Surely he has better options than that.
    I reckon he will get something longer personally.
    Hopefully Bonne isn’t going to take 10 games to get match fit.

    The problem is we are only another  2-3 key injuries away from slipping back into crisis mode, because the squad we’ve got is a ticking time bomb (tick tock) if everyone’s fit and in form it’s all right, but the squad has a few injury prone players, and a few players who are lightweight and bang out of form.

    Ive no idea whether the players we are being linked with are injury prone or bang out of form.

    Given our recruitment in the summer was shambolic, what’s changed?

    T.A.L.K that’s always a good sign.
  • Bonne, what a joke!

    Everyone goes on about how important it is to have long term planning, and get key players signed up on long term contracts. The flip side is being lumbered with unwanted or unfit players signed up on long term contracts. The likes of Stockley, Aneke, Kirk, DJ and Lavelle.

    Also from Wiki:
    Eden Edun and Kane, is an English pop/rock singer, musician, record producer and actor best known as a teen idol in the early 1960s.
    He had a top 3 hit with the song "Forget me not", which was purportedly written for Macauley Bonne.  ;)

    It was mentioned somewhere, can’t be arsed to trawl back as to where. Is it correct, who knows, BUT until the new group are in charge are they authorised to offer longer? Does TS want to be saddled with longer? Sure we will find out soon but it wouldn’t surprise me. Bonne might accept if the weekly wages were higher as he’s putting himself in the shop window for a decent summer move. All signings seem to be loans or out of contract players, Holden on six months only, Andy Scott six weeks etc so I can’t see any permanent signings beyond the end of the season.

    Thought Bonne was a fluffier in front of goal and need convincing otherwise. If he signs, we need goals from him because we don't score anywhere near enough from the chances we create. 
  • Seems strange to me that Bonne would want to get released from a (not bad contract) to then sign up for just a 6 month deal.

    Not particularly savvy is it  ?

    I think the six month contract rumour came from Peter O’Rourke (Sky reporter) saying it was a six month deal. 
  • Oh no! Not Bonne please.. Everyone will go on about the goals he scored.. He should have had 25 goals, the amount of great chances he had. Still believe if he had put away a couple of those we would have stayed up, and might be a different story now! 

    But lets get realistic - unless we are paying to wages, this is the pond we are fishing in!

    Bonne was good before Christmas in the championship.  He fizzled out just like everyone else that season .
