Your lad should thrive here. My observations of Callum are that he’s a man now and has more of a physique but this has dulled his pace a bit hence why he’s plays centrally. What are your thoughts on that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc1955 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 With Otis Khan who’s been here for a while, now Callum Dolan, and the possibility of Stones or a n other coming in then there has to be outgoings surely, ie. Norman, Hogan, Reid, and maybe even Hudson. Perhaps we’re waiting for it all to click into place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard it’s currently dead in the water Brad unless something significant changes. Let’s hope so though, I think he’d take us up.

There's obviously money in the pot, given the fact they're signing Dolan and were willing to give Smith a two year deal. I know there's no sentiment in football, but it's not really fair on Khan to keep him here unless they were planning on signing him... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardie Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 I know it's all about opinions but some posters [not many] appear to think Latics should be signing top-class or marquee players. Tier five football is not going to achieve that. I trust BP's observations that Dolan will be a decent signing. Khan is a bit of a strange one, in that he has been training with the club for a period of time but no offer has been made..unless it has and there are details to iron out. Stones on loan would be great, although we didn't really see him for that long, due to the injury. I think the squad is going in the right direction and certainly I have more confidence than this time last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarddog73 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 I've watched the extended highlights from Torquay v Yeovil last season and you can probably see why Micky and Gary fancy Dolan, comfortable with the ball at his feet he plays those balls in behind the centrehalf that the likes of Norwood would thrive on, always looking for the forward pass he'd probably fit in with what they are trying to build, he's always looking to get on the ball as well and make something happen which is something else we need more of, looks like he'd have a goal in him as well playing more advanced, I also think he could slot in deeper in the midfield as he has a decent passing range and would link up well eith the better footballers that we have. That's only a 12 minute highlight reel but that performance was encouraging in front of a decentish crowd and a big game for Torquay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 1 minute ago, Guy Branston Pickle said: He's a Pakistan International International clearance is only required for players moving between associations, more or less: ”an International Transfer Certificate (ITC) is required for every player aged 10 years or over … who is not an English national, and is registering for a club in England for the first time, as well as any player who has played under another National Association (including the other Home Associations) The process of obtaining an ITC ensures that a player, when moving from a club in one National Association to a club in another, is under the jurisdiction and disciplinary powers of the new Association. It is a key element in the registration of a player and ensures that they are eligible to play for their new club, as well as acting as a check to ensure the player is not under contract with their previous club, or subject to any suspension.“ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying people of one generation are more likely to take a particular view on a particular matter is about greater prevalence than a blanket assumption.
