Good move,top of league 1 to bottom of league 2.

 

He's obviously after game time, World Cup year after all! 🏆

Kelly couldn't play for us anyway as he has already played for 2 clubs.

 

Is that any clubs then, even ones as far down the pyramid as Bradford PA?

Port #Vale have confirmed the signing of @WBA defender Kyle Howkins, on loan for the rest of the season. #PVFC

Welcome on board Kyle. Can't decipher much from his wiki, apart from dodgy hamstrings !

 

WBA think highly enough to recently give him 2 1/2 year deal.

Big centre half. Now have Smith, Davis, Raglan, Howkins, and Jules there. And one proper full back in Gibbons.

 

6 loanees too, meaning one will miss out every week, or we'll send one back.

 

We still need a proper left back, and with Smurf looking to pocket over 1.5m with the Hugill to West Ham deal, you'd hope maybe a cheeky bid for Sam Jones.

Dodds signs an 18mth contract at Chesterfield.

Is this lad a centre half?

[j_grainger10]

I don't get if we were going to sign someone on loan that it wouldn't be an actual left back.. baffled.

[Hagrid]

Is this lad a centre half?

 

Yep, 6 foot 5. I don't know if he's ever played full back. Been injured/not playing for Cambridge so far this season.

 

Good to have a bit of depth at centre half, meaning we'll never have to see Kay there. Weird its another loanee, and what appears to be a depth signing more than a lad who's going to cement himself in the first 11.

 

Would still hope for another signing.

Another body for the defence at least, hopefully a good one. Looks like it's loans or nothing for us at the moment but maybe Aspo wants that so he can do some proper surgery in the summer?

 

I'm a lot happier than I was a couple of hours ago but we could really, really do with a decent left back because we haven't got the players to play a wing back system.

Former Vale winger Shodipo has joined Colchester from QPR.

Was convinced he was a good player. Was unfortunate to be managed by Brown. Undoubted ability.

Why have we signed another Centre back that has just come back from being out injured and hasn’t played since September? We need a keeper and a left back. Possibly another central midfielder.
