Could be a similar situation to Arblaster. Burnley may want to try in him in league 1. Be a decent bit of business for us - I guess Thomas will go back if he hasn’t already

Stop signing injury prone players maybe? It can’t come as a shock that players like Grant, Clarke and Wilson have been injured. Maybe approach a window where we don’t go for players with poor injury records.

How many games will Clarke and Ojo play? Smith and plant are ok squad players. Yak and jones aren’t at this level. Jones never fit either. Agree on loft, smith and McDermott. Disagree with you overall squad needs a lot of improving in the summer

Is it? It’s extremely weak. I would say only half of that list are good enough and one of those is injury prone. We’re crying out for a decent centre back as well.

He’s still at league 1. In a brand new environment. When staring in a league 1 side were loved by fans. Makes literally no sense

Arblaster to Derby. Now that is a loan that makes literally zero sense why so ever.

I don’t rate Yak personally. Think he flattered to deceive at the start and is a league 2 player. We over signed in midfield and left LWB wide open as well as up top. Same errors over and over again. I’m not concerned about the lack of signings yet it’s very early days, but given our injuries I would hope we are in advanced stages for a couple of signings - I very much doubt it though. We didn’t take the chance last season and went backwards and I think the same will happen this time.

Got my hopes up then

That’s a crazily good appointment

Agreed, to me he’s shown less than Shorrock. Looked good against the under 23 sides but in the league to me it seems he needs to much time and is a little off the pace. Not sure what kind of fee we would get given that we have offered a contract. Personally don’t see the benefit of him going there to sit in the u23 side

Rumours on Facebook that walters is going sjoke / has agreed previously to join

I like signings / potential signings like this. Clearly a fair amount is scouting has gone into this and like Jesse could hopefully turn out decent. No harm in a short contract to see if he’s up to it

Weren’t we after that portsmouth wing back in the summer? I’d be surprised if we’re not back in for him if available

Hopefully he follows them

What level is Irish prem? (In terms of league 1/2 ect. Seen Waterford striker is leaving on a free scored 33 in 29 last season, leaving to play in England. (Ronan coughlan)

Makes sense to sign Wilson up. Our forward options are woeful and don’t suit our style of play, Wilson does. He will more than likely only play 10 games but given our current situation that’s better than playing Loft for 10 games. End of season deal makes sense, re asses at the end of the season if he can’t get through with no injuries then maybe another contract. Needs more goals though.

There’s a lot worse places for a young lad to go out on loan.

Shame RE Arblaster but was always going to happen. This is the danger with loans. Fantastic player and one of the best I’ve seen play for vale period. Destined for big things and I hope he makes it big. Going to be tough to replace him in Jan. I think we saw the state of our midfield without him in recent weeks. (And Ojo)

If he’s on about summer (in window signings) then I’m guessing he is excluding Uche but leaving in Jesse as he’s done well. So by that count it’s 5 in 14. Either way the window was a right mess again

Hell yes, that would be horrendous. What other good signings did we make? Iacovetti is very poor. Chislett and Deborah great signings. Devine and Arblaster as well but both will probably go back. The rest have been very poor

Don’t think he’s been very good anyway. The odd good moment but largely ineffective. Arblaster is a class above him

vegan club as well, like you say, stinks of a publicity stunt. Will not end well, that club is on a downward spiral, I think they needed an experienced manager, not Duncan Ferguson and not a female manager

Crazy, one of the managers of the season replaced for no reason by someone who hasnt managed over here. Mental, id be fuming if i was a Bournemouth fan. Cant see anything other than relegation now

Overrated boxer and I’m surprised he went into the fight as such an odds on favourite. Delighted he lost and in such a fashion, can’t stand the bloke
