[wilsdenrover]

I’ve posted this in the correct thread too but court case adjourned again (I think I heard 25th March)

To be fair, Wikipedia isn’t really the font of accurate knowledge 

I expect you to come up with something more accurate then.

"The 32-year-old has had trouble staying fit since joining the Pilgrims from Norwich City in January due to a series of minor issues, which has limited him to eight starts and four substitute appearances. Forshaw lasted only nine minutes of the match against Steven Schumacher's Stoke City at the bet365 Stadium on Saturday before he had to be taken off."

This same tactic worked for Szmodics too, maybe we should just blow the remaining January budget on peroxide?

Embarrassing the lengths you are going to prove your point. Do you have any evidence what Gestede has publicly to the fans forum isn't the way transfers are done here? 

and this season he has been fit. Simple As. The past is the past. 

he has started 7 games, came on as a sub 9 times and unused sub 5 times. not selected 4 times. 

 

It’s not lengths chaddy it’s right infront of my eyes this last 14 years and more specifically 3 that we get told one thing and another thing tends to happen or be the case

its cool you love and like and believe everything the club does I just disagree and if you don’t like to debate it or be called out on it scroll past

Just saying if you’re gonna slam someone for being a couple of numbers off, which is largely unnecessary anyway, that Wikipedia might not be the best source. That’s all.

I wonder what happens if Eustace doesn't like any of the names presented to him?

I hope you’re not suggesting wiki can be fiddled with…

Huh? Do you agree he's injury prone or not? That's the question - not whether wiki is pin-point accurate.

Same to you, what's your point?

I would expect Eustace to have suggestions just like every head coach does and will suggested. JDT did, Mowbray did, etc. 

no-one expected Baker to be recalled but Rovers got a replace in and quick. Good quick management from Gestede and Eustace, Similar with Sanderson which no-one had the inside scoop on and when I saw the notification on my phone when I got to work I was surprised but happy with the signing 

I wish we would see good quick management bringing in the forward players we've desperately needed all season.

I don’t have a point.

I’ve just watched two hours of a court in India and it’s put me into a silly mood.

Can we just summarise all this as chaddy believes that everything the Club says will happen does and you (like 99% of the rest of us) dont?

Doesn't look like Bamford will happen, thank God

That’s the same dodgy ‘journalist’ who had about 10 different managers joining WBA last week.

And yet they deemed fit, a player who managed 20 minutes then retired.

John Fleck didn't retire.

He signed for Chesterfield and managed 18 minutes in the cup against Horsham. Made the bench on new years day though. 👍

yes, Gestede word and the fact we have already signed 2 players in this window.

My issue with Rudy was when he said one of the reasons we couldn't spend money on players was because "the money we receive for outgoing transfers is paid in instalments".

The club has since rowed back and acknowledged that incoming transfers are also 'paid in instalments' so it shouldn't make a difference.

The problem is, once Rudy is caught out trying to pull the wool over the fans eyes you then start to doubt everything he says. 

The Forshaw signing looked a strange one on paper, and now we have the Boro link it starts to look a little bit 'lazy'.

From The Star

Ben Brereton Diaz’s Sheffield United return has been plunged into doubt amid reports one Championship promotion rival holds a key advantage in negotiations.

United have been interested in signing Brereton Diaz all month, with manager Chris Wilder prioritising the arrival of attacking reinforcements. The Chilean international bagged six goals in 14 Premier League games on loan in South Yorkshire last season and parent club Southampton have made him available just months after agreeing a £7million fee with Villarreal.

Bramall Lane chiefs had been hopeful of sealing a move for Brereton Diaz this week but as of Sunday, that is now highly unlikely - and there has now been fresh suggestions a move might not happen altogether. Sky Sports claim that while the 25-year-old is ‘keen’ on joining United this month, Sunderland and another former club Blackburn Rovers are also interested.

Schlupp not looking very likely either - Palace manager saying that he doesn't want to lose him and the player hasn't asked for a move. Bearing in mind his contract expires at the end of the season, the situation only likely to change if someone comes in with a 2-3 year deal and Schlupp decides he wants the security.
