steelboy Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Gavin McCafferty saying 1 more player. Hopefully a left wing back so we can play Brodie on his stronger side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellfan Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Georgie Gent, a young left-sided player, is set to join on loan from Blackburn. If so, he's the Furlong/Penney replacement we've all hoped for. https://www.lancs.live/sport/football/transfer-news/blackburn-rovers-john-buckley-latest-27632388 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelboy Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 He got a goal and an assist in a reserve match against Leicester last weekend so he should be coming in with a bit of confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewelllfan Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Georgie Gent it is then can't help but feel we're still one short in the midfield but hopefully we've got enough in the team to mount a top 6 charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mio Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Another left back 😞 he seems to be a decent prospect the lad but again it’s a loan deal. the boy Wilson looked better than soare and definitely better than mcginley. I’d have liked to have seen him get some time on the park, I’d hate to see this boy farmed out like Max Johnson was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The highlights I saw of Gent he has pace and a good left foot. He hasn't played any first team football so we don't know if he can defend but Kettlewell has presumably watched video of full matches he's played in PL2 and seen enough to think he adds something.

I imagine Wilson is being handled in such a way to allow him to further develop (likely out on loan) to be our first choice option in the future.

wellsince75 Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Fair play to SK he’s addressed several of the areas we’ve needed cover . Suspect this pushes SOD back in the pecking order . Born out of injuries , suspect the three signings in the last week to be better than those they replace . A good sign . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Pretty sure I used to watch Georgie Gent on the Saturday afternoon World of Sport wrestling in the 1970's.

mfc Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Hopefully gent works out like furlong did for us,he seems to have a bit of pace about him so between him and spencer we may be back to young pacey fullbacks that like to get forward.

santheman Posted September 1, 2023 Report Share Posted September 1, 2023 Good signing on paper. Tall, athletic, pacy and can play anywhere on the LHS with a wand of a left foot apparently.
