Is it just a case of creative accounting to move £200k from your current academy budget to first team budget to use the cash appropriately..?

Stuwell2 Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 Think it’s more a case of £200,000 they don’t need to find for the academy which could save the society from having to help out so the society’s balance manages to get stronger which should help in the long run.

texanwellfan Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 Not long till window closes so hopefully some news to come soon or are we waiting on free agents but I’m not sure who free agents are? Is Snodgrass one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellsince75 Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 Longer this goes on the more likely we'll grab loan signings. Ideally get a few season long loans from better teams. In reality the Jan window won't solve much either, given so many players on contract. Hope we can get a couple/few gems in asap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which will be a total disaster of a move if we don't bolster the frontline anything happens to KVV and we are bang in trouble don't see any of the current frontline stepping up tbh.

fizoxy Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 At this point, we don't need just numbers. Squad players aren't going to move the needle, so if we're unable to get guys that are capable of kicking current first teamers onto the bench, then we shouldn't panic and just work with what we have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I am hearing only want to bring in quality better than what we have our frontline is pretty poor it wouldn't be hard to bring in better really. I think it's the only part of the pitch we are weak on if KVV gets an issue.I am now not bothered about a natural left back think the cover we have had has been excellent.

weeyin Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 If it was easy to bring in strikers every club would have a couple of great strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfc Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 From what we have seen of odonnell this season,I would have no problem with him being used at left back but we definitely need another full back as we're only one injury away from having to play either mugabi or lamie at full back and we don't want to be going back to they days.hammell has said he wants another striker in so hopefully that happens,van veen will be first choice so we won't be going out to try and replace him,someone that can do a decent job in the central area when required and take the burden off him is what we need for now.

MJC Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 Matt Penney confirmed on loan from Ipswich. I know nothing about him but the official sites description would suggest he is a left back or can at least play in that position. Welcome to our club Matt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfc Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 I don't know anything about penney but he has a decent enough cv,he's played a few games for the likes of sheffield wednesday,st pauli and Ipswich,it definitely looks like not a bad signing.

If he can play left back and is a genuine left sided player then you’d like to think this is an improvement on what we’ve got. With Carroll and McGinley injured, having to rely on right footed S’OD as our first choice left back wasn’t an enticing prospect. Hopefully this lad will help solve that issue.

GazzyB Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 If this guy establishes himself at left back then I wonder who takes the right back slot. Both O’Donnell and McGinn have had great starts to the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 Looking a at this BBC article, Penney is a left footer that can play full back or wing back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
