Stoney Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Isn't it worth talking to this kid - I thought there were rumors last year about a possible loan deal (now a free agent):- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jose_Baxter Thought he had good reviews.

Keepingthe Faith Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 IMHO. Average goals per game, can be misleading, if you look closer at some strikers records, you will see that they've scored the bulk of their goals for one club, that they were happy at, with a much higher goals per game ratio. We might be the club for him that he scores 20 for! Strikers who score goals for any and all clubs they play for, are probably out of our reach financially. (I'm hoping Dan Taylor will be this player for us) If he can contribute to team performance and bring other players into play and provide cover for say Simmo in the link role. Just saying we could do worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4froale Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) from what ive heard this trialist could do a job as a centre forward or on the wing but not a goalscorer , eccleston is certainly not what we need.

razza699 Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Eccleston came on as 2nd half sub v Tottenham in Baltimore Seems to have played whole game v Torotno and set up one and missed one. And played v AS Roma Played v Fulham back end of last season Would be suprised for us, more likely a Championship side. Mega coup if we can lets hope he is not another that thinks he is a cut above, if it happens I wouldn't call a player who has only scored 5 in 37 appearances on loan in league 1 a coup Singe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying we could do worse. I think that's a very valid point. I think it was Twis who also said that if he can be a player who provides genuine assists; then he would become just as valuable a player as the person on the end of them. If he's playing ahead of Simpson; but lays on chances that Simpson takes; he's doing a good job. If he's laying on chances for the likes of Furman, or M'Chamgama, Croft or Wes, then again - he's doing a good job. He doesn't have to putting them away himself to effect us scoring goals.... That said - a striker who looks to be in the box 9 times out of 10 to get on the end of things is still, by the looks of it, a priority. Could be Dan Taylor? Might be Matt Smith? But - PD could still pull a rabbitt out of his hat and bring in that missing link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz_Oafc Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Dont think Lee Croft would be happy if we signed Ecclestone, he was sh*ggin crofty's missus within days of them splitting up! #awkward Edited July 30, 2012 by Gaz_Oafc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4froale Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 ryan lowe to leave sheff weds , couldnt imagine them expecting much for him as he is 33 , probably still more than we can afford mind you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticdickovarmy Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Lowe would be a great sign what seen of him in the past, he will end up in league 1 and probably stay up North.... PNE bound to be linked lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microcuts Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 ryan lowe to leave sheff weds , couldnt imagine them expecting much for him as he is 33 , probably still more than we can afford mind you That would be a signing and a half.
