I reckon Stones might be announced before Khan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boyyou Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Thanks to all for the Otis Khan updates. I have a feeling he'll do us a good job. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penrhyn Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Yes I also have a sneaky feeling about Khan has the guile and could chip in with a few goals . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlossopLatic Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 He stays at Wigan he might get 10 minutes off the bench here and there. If he comes to us he goes straight into the starting line up. Looks like Maloney isn't going to stand in his way. He'll be in the team against Altrincham on Saturday. So will we adapt our formation maybe going 3-5-2 or will we drop Norwood or Stones into the number 10 position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldham57 Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Stones will be great for us, his aggression with and without the ball was great to watch especially at Solihull, at last it looks like we have a midfield with some legs, pace and fight, give them all time to gel and we'll be up there for sure 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll revert to a 3-5-2, Stones and Norwood upfront with Conlon, Charsley and Gardner central to the two wing backs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't think it possible he could be revered if he comes in and scores 20 goals helping us to promotion then?, I think it's perfectly plausible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fervid Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Did pretty good last season if it only was for 4 plus games. Be interesting to see how he does for a longer period. Could finally be that piece in the jigsaw that gets us out of this shitty league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradKnowles1 Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Gone back to Wigan with a cash offer. Original was a small fee 50% earlier in the window. Think we have now offered 150k. Not sure it will be done in time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Sinnott Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Wigan must think he's shite if they've gone from wanting him in their team going into the new season to being allowed to move to the NL permanently... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might not currently be good enough for league 1 / Championship level. He could come here and score goals, he’s still only 20. Think we as a fanbase need to chill out a bit on him though. He only played 4 times. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we not think £150k + wages on a young player who has a known medical issue, who admittedly did very well (but for only 4 games nearly a year ago) is a huge gamble? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
