    Forward is close but as others have said depends on outgoings.

    Both good players at this level and improve our squad for sure.
    We're into the bollock tingle zone - or at least I am.

    This has nothing to do with my morning Original Source Mint + Tea Tree shower.

    Will Boyle available for loan from Huddersfield might be our defender?
    Would be a strange one considering they just signed him

    Didn't he play at this level last season?

    Be surprised if he is because he went there to go "home".

    Interesting to read on the Sunderland site that Alex Neill wanted to sign Stockley but was blocked by the board.

    £600k!! No wonder Stockton hasn’t moved yet. Teams leaving it to the 11th hour to test Morecombe’s resolve. 
    With a price tag like that, this is why the lad hasn't moved yet. However, I think the suggested £300k-ish plus promotion addon-on could be where we might land on this deal. I still hold out hope that we can do a deal, particularly since he has less than a year on his contract and he can do for a free.

    I feel like every player we're looking at has some element of risk. Sam Smith scored a hattrick vs. the team that is now bottom of the league - great time to score it, before the end of a transfer window. I wonder if we'd have even been considering him if he hadn't scored those goals when he did. He's bundled around on loan for a while and now seems to be happiest to have gone to Cambridge permanently after being there on loan before. In the very recent game vs. them, I don't remember him being particularly tricky or useful, but it was his header that contributed to the goal. I have reservations about his quality and I think the resale would more likely be to another L1 club below us in the future. I also think that Cambridge would probably want something stupid like £500k too.

    Stockton is the one that impressed me the most last season. I think he's worth it, but the resale is nominal. Not every player should be seen as an investment for the future - sometimes, you need to get players for the now.

    One comment on there to the effect that the Charlton fans unanimously love him. You're about a month out of date with that mate

    perhaps not getting games at Coventry so recalled to go on loan somewhere else.

    Obviously not to Charlton as we won't take a Palace player and we don't need a left sided defender, just a striker.

    Original source shower gel or not I reckon we're still mired in the same load of old bollocks zone
    Rehashed empty phrases on repeat
    Signings are reliant on an egomaniac ballbag with no clue about running a 3rd division football club.

    I like the direct debit Likes you have with the Management of CL.

    I may wait until the the deals come to fruition to add to your collection but thanks for sharing your insider knowledge.

    Mentions Gilbey, JFC and CM could all still go too.

    Can see the sense in DJ out and a striker who can play wide coming in.
    We already have enough players who can play wide in the squad

    Kirk, JRS, CBT plus Leaburn and Payne who have played there this season already.
    I agree, I want someone who’s firstly a striker rather than a winger who can play up front.

    However given we want one with pace it’s likely have some ability to play wide too. It makes more sense than a pure poacher or another target man.

    Another interesting thing about Sam Smith is he’s left footed. He could give both Stockley and JRS competition. Our left winger in Kirk or CBT is then more of a creator, with the main goal threats coming from the striker and right winger.
    This.

    We have enough wingers/wide forwards  - we need an out & out striker. Someone (like TS stated) who can run in behind defences & not struggle to get into the box 5 seconds after releasing the ball (Stockley)

    Is the forward a free transfer or for a fee ?

    Notice the use of the word foward, not striker.

    CAFC Deadline day bingo:

    Slams shut
    Couldn’t get it over the line
    We were very close
    One or two
    He felt it wasn’t right for him
    Loan window opens soon
    We wish him all the best
    Exciting young players pushing to be involved
    Happy with the squad overall

    "We accepted the offer as the fee met our value of the player, and the deal was right for the health of the club moving forward."

    Smith fits that description as he’s played on the right, though Scully could be another possibility.

    Perhaps Stockley will go to Stoke then? It might be worth keeping an eye on Stockley's movements in the next 24 hours.

    Stockley out for £600k, Stockton in for £200k?

    My only concern with the forward is that other clubs at this level are also interested and we are reliant on shifting a player or two to make it happen.
    hmm. Not sure about that

    Forward makes me wonder if it could be Scully who has played centrally before

    Tbh if we are actually going to spend money on a striker / forward that played in L1 last season then of all the names mentioned I think I'd take Udoh.

    Maybe it could be Scully, and certainly fit's the bill.. But I would have thought he is out of our budget, he would be close to 750K

    If it is him, we would have had a good window.

    I think he’d be the best but got injured on Saturday and I’ve seen one rumour it was his ACL. So we will probably sign him!
