No, he probably won't. But the question was, why did you sign him? The reason was, he had an excellent season playing in this league last season.
................and that is a straight and accurate answer to a specific question. I don't know what makes it different playing for Morecambe and playing for Port Vale - that is for you to discuss and analyse. His time at Port Vale has certainly been a disappointment - whatever the reasons..

He's not good enough mate. He may have had a purple patch last season but I've seen enough of him to think that he'll be lucky to have a career in non league.

It wasn't just a purple patch though - there was also the 'purple patch' the season before, playing very well on loan in League 1 for Cambridge. At Blackpool he just wasn't getting the game time, which is why we pulled the plug on his loan.

On paper - and on previous performances - it should have been a good loan move. Clearly it hasn't been, and that is a disappointment.

He is absolutely <ovf censored>. He will never ever get anywhere near your 1st team and will be very lucky to play above L2 level next season.

Why was Weir signed? I'm seeing Natuonal League with him. Our youngsters, Dipepe aside, are not L1 level yet - maybe never. 

But we just have to give it max effort and hope we have a bit of luck. It's a confidence game and we must hope Wycombe don't score first or the wheels may come off big time. 

Perhaps because he scored 10 goals from midfield in this league last season, for a team fighting relegation?

Not sure on Weir there, I haven't seen him positively influence any game really, looks like a bit of a passenger.

Can see in his recent performances why he struggled to get game time elsewhere.

I can't put my finger on whether it's a positional thing, or that he's just too lightweight but even Walters feels like a better option based on the last month or so

He didn't - only at Blackpool, which is why we pulled the plug on his loan there. 43 games (and not late cameo appearances either!) in League 1 for Morecambe last year (10 goals from midfield), and a successful spell at Cambridge the season before until it was cut short by injury.
