Interesting that FB says about 4-5 players still potentially to come in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midsblue Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 So, in the next six days what do you forecast? Miller & OGrady signing? Doyle signing? Completely different striker / strikers signing?

I also forecast O'Grady and a loan striker. Which is better than a lone striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will then see both Gerrard and Byrne move out of the club either permanently or on loan and then bring in a couple of loan signings atleast one will probably be from a prem U23. If we can get both Byrne and Gerrard off the books permanently then I expect atleast 2 more permanent signings after what Ive slready said.

Let's face it and be honest with ourselves here we need two quality strikers and sharpish, this season isn't the one to be starting off with a partnership of a young raw forward coupled with an old carthorse, teams with far better strikers than what we currently possess - Barnet (Akinde) and Chesterfield (Dennis) were relegated from the division we will be plying our trade in and it's imperative that this obvious weakness in the team is addressed. He’s scored 3 pre season so he’s averaging better than 1-3 this season already. Maybe he’s going to prove you wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unsworthlatic Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Another rumour to add, apparently David Cotterill was seen walking into Latics this morning past people queuing for Forest Green tickets. Not quite sure which one sounds a more far fetched rumour, people queuing for Forest Green tickets or David Cotterill walking into the club...

There's only about three on Latics' books that I could pick out of a crowd. As Cotterell was last seen playing a handful of games in India seems plausible that he is looking for a club back here.

Anyone with George Best for middle names is worth signing, operated at higher levels and would add a bit of quality to the squad if he's anywhere near the player i remember (although I had the same opinion on Ben 'where did it all go wrong' Pringle).

Cannot disagree. Certainly comes with a decent past, like Pringle. Couldn't believe he was only 30! Seems to have been around for ages. Hopefully he can add a bit of quality like you say as we don't have a natural right sided midfielder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
