If Garrity goes and we have no decent strikers, I will be completely convinced that nobody at the club wants any more league 1 football

Look at Garrity goal average under Moore than Clarke/ Crosby and 24/25 was a promotion year, our best goalscoring midfielder is being played deeper

Byers, 1 goal in 6 for Sheffield Wednesday. 1 goal in 13 for us.
Walters, over 2 dozen games for the Vale and no goals in fact I can hardly remember him having a shot at goal 
 We aren’t playing a system which allows the midfielders to get in to the opponents box enough, hence why we aren’t getting many goals from our midfielders, add the fact that we have poor strikers at the moment is a big reason why we are not scoring many. 

I agree with you on the logic of playing Garrity in a role where he can get forward more. However the irony is, is that when he played in that deeper role we were winning games.

But his best 2 seasons were when we got promoted the first time and the season when we went down but nearly all his goals that season came earlier on in the season when we were doing well.

He has scored goals in League 2, not League 1 where he only has a few.

Croasdale offers the same energy but is a better player.

Sounds like BG might be going to Walsall

 

So Byers to get the armband full time. But if anybody could choose any other player in the squad to be captain, who would you pick?

He was, the last we were in league 1, one of the very few players who looked a league 1 player.

Probably Curtis, if he starts often enough.

Ben kinda is a poster boy for the club, everything about him is what this club is about. Will be sad to see him go too. 

Just got in. Happy that we've got a CAM in. Gives us options. Good luck to the lad!

The York City commentator for Radio York has been asked to go on Radio Stoke to talk about the Ollie Pearce rumours and he couldn't go on which makes me believe that the rumours about Ollie coming to us is true.

Meh, the deals are all done at this point. Paperwork, coordinating comms will be what is going on now I’d imagine. It’s just all theatre now lol. 
 

Just wish they’d announce and put it out.
