I'd guess that's geared to the end of the EFL transfer window so that they can decide if they need him for the run-in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loans usually go 6 months to January or the end of the season. everything has been agreed and Wigan have their replacement. Club believe as of this afternoon he’s ours 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will need to see a vast improvement from 2 of these 3 if we are compete in the top 4. They are key We ain't getting better than Conlon in his role whilst we are operating on the budget we are. Agree on Lundstram and Hammond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boyyou Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 (edited) Stones will be reet, so long as we don't expect him to be the second coming of Alan Shearer. More of a younger version of Garner I think in that he will pester defenders, press well, run the channels and, hopefully, finish as well as he did in his first spell. A useful addition.

Only Blue Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 As someone mentioned Stones is not our saviour, he is a young lad who may have a dip in form but I think overall if he shows the determination and clever play like last time he does improve the team massively. He seemed to love it here as well and it just seemed to work, let's hope it does again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightDN123 Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 The pressure isn’t on Stones to score, but he needs to chip in with his fair share. The pressure is on Norwood to score our goals. Which I’m sure Stones will help with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Branston Pickle Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 They looked a much better team on Monday when they started to close down and harry Gateshead from the front, that's the kind of thing that of thing Stones will be very handy for. I think it was at Hartlepool last season where he absolutely bulldozed one of their defenders to win the ball and set Norwood up for a tap in. Happy if it's true 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully aware that Norwood starts when fit. So my point would mean Stones would be under pressure to provide the goals if that was to happen.
