Ha! Even if that were true Adkins is FAR too professional to have told anyone that.

Ask him he is here.ValleyGary said:No idea what thrill these people get from making so much shit up3 -
Impatient people projecting their emotions onto the manager. Very weird behaviour.5

People just love to moan about something, I don’t think Gunter playing as left back is the complete end of the world like everyone seems to think, we could be a lot worse off! I think he played well tonight and could actually be an advantage with him cutting it on his right foot to cross to Stockley.8

Agreed. I will be negative if we don't sign a LB by the end of the window but having Gunter or even someone like Oguntayo for a few games shouldn't hurt too much.SheedyCAFC said:People just love to moan about something, I don’t think Gunter playing as left back is the complete end of the world like everyone seems to think, we could be a lot worse off!

It's not the end of the world, I don't think anyone is claiming it is. If, for example, Purrington did his Acl on the 1st of September we would be left with 2 right backs who have to both play every week and Roddy and Barker as our only professional cover.SheedyCAFC said:People just love to moan about something, I don’t think Gunter playing as left back is the complete end of the world like everyone seems to think, we could be a lot worse off!

You can't go into the season with 1 left back, those days need to be in the dim and distant past. Look what happened when we did it with Page, we were lopsided for months until Purrington came in and we improved massively just through balance. He isn't Ashley Cole is he.0 -
If we're not after a left back (even before BP was injured) then Adkins is deluded or has been lied to about the budget. I don't think that is or ever was the case though. It's a good point that he doesn't want to come across as desperate to sign one in the media.

Ogilvie is still without a club after leaving Gillingham, he’ll be on our radar for sure0

Seriously?DDOUBLEE said:
Okay, good for Adkins then. Won't be enough for promotion but as long as Mr. Walking is Brilliant is satisfied then everything is fine.BR7_addick said:
Doesn’t matter whether you are or not, Adkins is satisfied to the point where he’s refusing to loan him out.DDOUBLEE said:
Okay, I'll just be satisfied with Josh Davison who scored 3 goals for Forest Green Rovers in the division below then.Swisdom said:
Why are we getting the hump with every signing by our rivals? Who really cares about Conor Chaplin? We’re his 4 goals last season especially remarkableDDOUBLEE said:Ipswich just announced Conor Chaplin while we're busy announcing stupid f**king songs 🙂🙂🙂
the game isn’t played on paper, or based on signings - it’s a team game. We finished the season as the form team so maybe, just maybe, we’ll do okGetting snidely digs in before the season’s even started is bed wetting of the highest order.7 -
Interesting that’s he’s played the last two PSF’s for the Gills. He’s obviously still hopeful of a Champ move but fingers crossed we’ll go in for him.SheedyCAFC said:Ogilvie is still without a club after leaving Gillingham, he’ll be on our radar for sureDempsey is a decent player there too.0 -

Don’t understand this at all. Just me?Cafc43v3r said:From the match thread
Before anyone wets the bed Nigle isn't talking to us. He is talking to anyone that just added 100k to the loan fee for their left back or an agent representing an unemployed left back in the Gillingham area.Canny fucker is mister nice guy.1 -
If a manager publicly says we urgently need a left back then any club/agent we're talking to will increase their demands knowing we're desperate to sign their player ASAP.cafcsinger said:

That’s true but won’t any club or agent knowing we probably do need a left back know that Adkins would say we don’t. Also most agents know exactly what positions we’ve been enquiring about for monthsScoham said:

I'm sure they will, it just means we don't look as desperate compared to if he had said with BP out we need someone in this week, for example.ShootersHillGuru said:

TS has retweeted this... he still believes.

Yes it's a bit optimistic to think that clubs will look at us, a club clearly trying to make signings, and think we're not after a left back. Especially when we've previous said that we would have liked Maatsen backShootersHillGuru said:

I'll be negative after we have lost several games we should have won. After we have consistently played badly. This whole "we've been through so much it's made me negative" is just getting f***ng boring.
A league one club with the likes of Worthington Stockley Famewo Innis Clare and some excellent young players coming through is in a strong position.
Let's wait til we have played at least ONE match FFS24 -

We haven’t had a house analogy for a while.. feels like we’ve bought a new house, but have no furniture, and just don’t know where to start, hope we haven’t got subsidence!0

We are after a left back.
Gallen has said as much in a previous interview with Olly. Saying is a left back more important than another position etc. He said he wanted to ensure we got the keeper and striker right first, which we did. They’re working on other targets all the time.
Just because Adkins has not come out and said “yes, we will be needing to sign a left back soon as we are in desperate need for one” or of that type, doesn’t mean we aren’t actively pursuing.
It means “until our targets become realistic with wages, until clubs drop their price to fall in line, we have enough to get us by for a couple of games”
They know what they’re doing, they know we need more senior players and strength, even if we had every senior player available, they know we need more.
Let’s not start hanging on every word our manager says. It won’t do anyone any good.48 -

Did we ? don't remember replacing Chucks. Must have missed that one. Unless you mean Davison, who scored 3 for FG last season.Sage said:We are after a left back.
. He said he wanted to ensure we got the keeper and striker right first, which we did. They’re working on other targets all the time.
Of course I'm being facetious - we brought in Stockley. He just happened to be here last season........along with Chuks 🤔1
