Signings - Part 2

[EricHamesis]

Make that keeperS with Sam Hornby from Burton.

[valeparklife]

Yay another Goalkeeper

 

When is Shay Given signing?

[Valenick]

Brown must be getting desperate signing Davis on a two year contract.cant see these signings pushing for promotion.

Hopefully Brown will be out of a job by Christmas and we can get a real Manager in.

 

Hopefully you really are stupid hopefully we will be in a promotion potion you must really be immature if you want us to do badly so we sack the manager unbelievable jeff

[GibraltarVale]

Good bunch of signings recently. A couple of young players with potential. Particularly rate hornby. Montano looks like a quality player for league 2, and lainton comes with good reviews from bury fans. All in all, a solid start and definitely building a squad with good balance and ability to push for the playoffs at the bare minimum.

Crap pun alert.

I never had a train set, but:

If Sam keeps two consecutive clean sheets, will he be Hornby Double-O?

[Warren]

Welcome to Sam Hornby also.

The thing about a model railway is you can run it at reckless speed and there are only plastic passengers on board when it crashes. Looking for a mature judgement in coming for crosses and one on one situations.

Crikey, yewth - hope he's better at goalkeeping than you are at puns or we're in real trouble! 🙂

Try and be positive or go bury yourself!

 

I agree with Alan that the signings will not have people queueing for season tickets. That's an opinion. You're allowed to have them you know without being told to "go bury yourself". Just because we are not dancing in the streets at the moment, doesn't mean we won't turn up and support them every game.

[Jacko51]

Pardon me for saying so, but he hasn't anything to reform - he has no convictions and is just as innocent as anyone on here, probably a lot more than some.

Not aimed at you specifically, but loads on this thread seem to think we are signing a cross between Ian Brady and Jimmy Savile, when the poor guy has not been found guilty of anything at all.

 

He's had a few issues at his former clubs which don't reflect well on him. I never said he had any convictions. I was simply pointing out that we have had characters at the club before who have come with a murky past and done OK.

[darren1810]

Again seems promising and a good age. Clough spoke highly of him.

 

The only thing i can add to this and it will appear a negative comment but can anybody explain the re-signing of Ryan Boot year after year ?

I don't wish anyone to be out of work and looking for a club but Hornby is younger than Boot so how much longer can Boot be considered a ' prospect ' .?

[Jacko51]

It would appear you consider every opinion but your own irrelevant

 

 

It's a common feature of several posters on here.

[Wise Owl]

Some of the view points on here crack me up when it comes to signings

 

Joe Davis- since leaving vale in 2014 he has made just 29 league football appearances, only managed 14 last year

Lainton- whilst looks ok has a horrendous injury record, 49 apps since 2013

Pope- decent signing

Montano- winger that his goals ratio is absolutely horrendous (17 goals since 2010) not sure on assists but lets hope its around 1 every other game or he brings nothing to the team other than a body.

 

Some big gambles just like January from Brown, if they don't pay off like they didnt then, hes in trouble big time. I said it then and ill say the same now, Brown has to take some blame for relegation following poor signings in Jan and gambling on players he brought in with poor fitness and injury records. If the like of Davis dont and Montano dont make the grade and Lainton gets injured (as usual) you are left scraping for loan signings and budget gets wasted again with no supply to the forward line as it stands. Lob into the mix adam yates injury record is suspect over the last 2-3 years and the fact we don't have a midfield other than Pugh id say signing both Bikie and Davis is perhaps budget that should be ploughed into the midfield area. Smurf and Bruno gamble on foreign players...idiots and damaging to the club....brown gambles on british based players and he knows what hes doing.... really?

 

So your glass is half empty then!!
