January transfer window

Never heard of him; probably a good thing! He’s the exact kind of player I think we should be signing. Can’t be that bad if he’s been at Man City. Short deal to prove himself. There’s no bad side to the deal for the club. Trials at two championship clubs as well. Welcome and good luck

I like the profile of the goalkeeper signing. Under age so not going to affected the squad registration but signed until the end of the season so we can get a really good look at him.

Keepers from the top teams tend be very god with the ball at the feet.....just saying😀

I take it you don’t remember the world beating Alex Nimely then? 😉

Maybe the club are after someone - if they deregister Leon now and don’t get the target, then that would put us in a mess.

I think Leon's contract is the problem. He clearly doesn't have another season in him and I think he's in the cusp of earning another 12 month extension based on appearances. Its a good move by Vale.

Even in the short term for tomorrow I wonder if we would re-register Robinson as I think we are very short up front with Rodney and Pope injured plus Cullen can no way play tomorrow and Saturday.

I think we are trying to get someone in - we desperately need it at CB with or without Leon in the squad.

If we re-register Robinson we will have to de-register another player won't we?

Your post seemed to imply ‘everyone but me’

the lad has obviously improved / shown more than he did when he was here

If Visser is de-registered then there will be a space in the 22 as Scott would not take up a place given his age.  Unclear whether Visser injury likely to be season ending?

Makes sense. It was also the way smurf wanted to take as well. Clearly didn’t work. Still think it’s the right option. No reason players who’ve been at Man City can’t be decent at this level

If we have nothing to play for in the last 2 or 3 games then this keeper scott will hopefully get a chance prove his worth.

Nothing that the fat blue one did worked, that was because he was rubbish at it not because the idea was poor.

I mean it would take a seriously bad performance to be worse than brown was on saturday if he is thrown in
