MavericK Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Simple question folks..... Accurate answer required please no he wasn't registered before the first leg, jennings is available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan09 Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 Gutted he cant play, his pace that is widely mentioned could have given him a real advantage over the albanians Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East_Stand_Al Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 I'm fairly certain if we get through the next match with a win he will be eligible for the next round though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimus Prime Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 In answer to your question NO. There are 2 issues here though, as we've seen with Steve Jennings. They may be eligible but are they fit? Thats an entirely different question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East_Stand_Al Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 In answer to your question NO. There are 2 isuses here though, as we've seen with Steve Jennings. They may be eligible but are they fit? Thats an entirely different question. Thats actually a really good shout, I reckon we'll see Jennings on as a sub at some point on thursday. It might not seem much but the rest of the team have had some pre-season training and now 3 competitive matches, that has to help their fitness. Hopefully that wll realy tell come the start of the new season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu92 Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 I thought he was eligible. After he signed did Gannon not say something along the lines of him being their wildcard for this round but with him still being unsure about whether he was going to take him to Albania with him at such short notice? Would that not mean he can still play in the return, should he be fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Last post by: Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 That was my impression and the official website mentions something that makes me think he can play too (if fit) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 I thought he was eligible.

Would that not mean he can still play in the return, should he be fit? That's what I thought as well. Was the "wildcard" deadline not Wednesday night? And I'm pretty sure we signed him before hand? I got the impression that he was available but not fit enough to feature so was left at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yir Elder Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 It is mentioned in the Sunday Mail about that. I suppose we'll have to see an actual quote from someone within the club on that. It would be good to have that other option, although I suspect he'd only be a sub anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madwullie Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 That's what I thought as well. Was the "wildcard" deadline not Wednesday night? And I'm pretty sure we signed him before hand? I got the impression that he was available but not fit enough to feature so was left at home. From the timing, I was pretty sure he was signed in time as well. I remember an interview where Gammon said he was going to be signed in time but that it wasn 't fair to stick him on the first flight to Albania. But then the day after the deadline had passed I'm sure i read an interview where he said he hadn't been signed on time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmcd Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 its in the news of the world that gannon says he hopes to unleash humphrey on thursday so by that it would suggest that he can play and looks like he will play to destroy the albanians Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special aka Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 My belief was that he is a permitted 'Wild card' signing, and is able to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katie Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Also in the Record that Gannon hopes to play him on thursday, feeling that a week of training would benefit him greatly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav212 Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Hope he can play, the guy goes like hes got a rocket up his arse he will be eager to impress and hopefully would tear their fullback a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mon_da_well Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 As far as I'm aware, players who are 21 or under to not need to be registered to play in Europe. Isn't he just 21? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
