Well David Unsworth did say he favoured 4-3-3, so if we did sign him it might suggest that is a preferred formation. With say a number 9 Fondop or Nuttall with Reid/Willoughby/Dallas/Geen playing as the wide forwards. Tollit and Hope could also be options as a wide forwards in a front 3. The 3 behind could be Ward and Lundstrum with Sheron or Shelton shielding, then the new back 4 is Kitching Hogan Hobson New RB with Couto as an option/back up on the left and Sutton as an option at CB or RB.

Potent forward line by all accounts. Chesterfield fans seem to rate Dallas and looking at their forum they’re hoping he signs ASAP . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ackey Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Lads - no one fucking cares. It's bland, childish bickering. If a 5 year old did it I would be disappointed in their immaturity. I've hidden some of it, I can't be arsed finding the rest of it. Just stop. Grow up. Or DM each other. Or meet up in person and just have a good rummage under the sheets, get the tension over and done with. But it stops here. You both post perfectly fine most of the time, but I will just ban you in the end - I'm far too lazy to go cleaning up threads these days. Please and thank you. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigfatjoe1 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Some people are very confident that he's signed. IF he has, then we have a very exciting attacking line-up, with options: Willoughby/Reid Ward/Tollitt Nuttall/Fondop. Dallas/Green Lundstron/Sheron Shelton/Gardner Kitching/Couto Hogan/Oil tanker Hobson/Sutton AN Other Norman/Hudson Just need a RB (or two) and a CB (with McGahey leaving at some point). This is starting to look really, really good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzlatic Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 If Dallas comes in, surely that would mean one of the other forwards would be on the way out. There are max 3 starting spots for forwards and we would have Nuttall Reid Willoughby Hope Fondop And I'm sure he's talked about using Ward up the pitch. I would say out of that list that the top 3 would expect to be starting most games with Hope and Fondop more ok with a predominantly sub role, so if you add in Dallas then that's 4 "1st choice" forwards. Given we can only have 5 subs (or has that changed?), that seems top heavy so someone would have to move on. Is Dallas more of a wide forward or an up the middle player? So if he did come in, could mean Reid or Nuttall maybe out depending on the type of player he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can't see Reid being that out of favour. I'd get rid of Fondop, can't run over an hour, only plays one position and is miles off the others ability wise.

LaticsLegend Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I think this signing would probably mean the end of Hope and/or Tollitt. We'll likely play 4-3-3, with Willoughby and Dallas in the wide positions. That leaves Reid, Nuttall and Fondop competing for the centre forward position. Reid could probably play in the left sided position if needed, but I can't see Fondop staying around too long if this is to be the case.

Shrek Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I don't think we are in for him myself. Agents playing games. If we did sign someone who plays up top or wide left of a 3 I'd imagine both Tollit and Fondop will be gone. Both or one would be used to tempt Halifax in selling their right back no doubt.......

I don't think that Hope leaving if Dallas came in solves the problem. We'd have too many forwards who'd expect to be starting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrek Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 3 minutes ago, League one forever said: Possibly- but Hope is an Unsy type player. He’ll run all day for him. 4 outfield subs. He can play left wing, right wing, up top in a 2 and any of a 3, and I'm sure Curle had him wing back at one point! Great option off the bench at this level if he's not starting. Tollit like Rooney and Fondop can play one position. Not good enough to command that stop so IF we sign this lad Tollitt needs sending to Halifax.
