The fact that there is no news from WR re the 2 signings expected is in my opinion bad news
we are 3 weeks away from kick off and lets face it if you go running by yourself it is not a substitute for a day at the racecourse with your new work mates

Striker will be holding out for a better deal elsewhere
candidates are R Howe, Jack Midson, are names being put up , but I expect it to be someone not on the routine suspects as we will be looking at better and they will be hanging out for more
Left sided - someone with pace
I suspect that ODonnell will not be going to wales the other trialist will and I would be surprised if Rees hasnt signed by Monday

Not too sure, there are whispers we may announce a new face before Wales and quite probably today - I have no names but have heard this from a few people and not in direct response to the MY interview either.

Was at Aberdeen just sticking his name out there but then googled him and realised he's signed for RovRum.

Ah right.

Not really sure who else is available other than Rooney and Vincent. Would have liked Courtney Cameron but he's gone to Torquay.

Why didn't you google him first, and then you would have realised that the Aberdeen full back had signed a 6 month contract with Rotherham United. :roll:

Because googling would take at least 20 seconds more than just typing his name...
Then again maybe you should google him and learn that he's not a full back but a left footed midfielder who can play out wide or in the centre?

Best you tell the BBC that he is not a full back then.

Well in two and a half seasons not once did he play full back nor was he signed as a full back and as far as I am aware did not play as a full back for Fulham's youth teams nor in Finland where he was on loan. Maybe you should contact the BBC as you seem very concerned by it.

It does amaze me how you always seem to adopt such an aggressive attitude in all your posts.

Mmmm... Probably a perfect example of how humour (nay sarcasm) is completely lost on Internet forums.

Then again your know it all persona comes across very well ;-)

I doubt we would take a chance, he seems very injury prone.

Possible suggestions for Left Wingers I would take (granted some may be far fetched and some perhaps underwhelming):

Mark Wright- Shrewsbury
Medy Elito- Dagenham
Salim Kerkar- Charlton
Rommy Boco- Accy Stanley
Jordan Obita- Loan
Luke Rooney- Swindon
Kevin Elison- Morecombe
Ryan Hall- Loan

People that would of been good who have joined other clubs:

Courtney Cameron
Lee Molenyeux

That list makes pretty grim reading!! As we are in for a permanent winger I would imagine Lionel Ainsworth, Mark Wright and Luke Rooney are most likely. Alan Gow/Kevin Ellison will cost fees which may still be in our range but I think are unlikely now.

Rom Boco is a player that would fit in well.

It would be unlikely we try for Elito after the trouble on his second loan spell with us.

Going by JP's remarks on TIG earlier when Vincent was brought up, I wouldn't be surprised if he was the person we're speaking to.

I like Ash, so I'd be all for it.

Agreed,7 goals from the wing is decent.

I would for better than Vincent, also would a fee be involved for Vincent?

Can Ash play on the left wing? I'd prefer a left footer out there.

Also, Kerkar was released by Charlton.
