CumbrianRam Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Billy Kee is ***** If he didn't play for some Staffordshire team who play in Yellow, he would never be mentioned on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddesdenRam Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Baptise Forsyth Right Winger (bit of pace) Centre Mid (old head) Jackson Martin If we sign 6 I'm not too sure if the right winger needs that much pace. I have been saying previously that someone with unreal pace like Llyod Dyer is what we need but we don't really have strikers that are likely to get on the end of crosses. I think someone that knows how to get past their man (not necessarily through pace) and create chances is what we need. if we are going along this experience route then somebody with lots of assists.

Leicester Ram Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 It seems top be portrayed that we're heavily investing this summer in experience. Baptiste- free Forsyth- minimal Crainey (?)- free Martin- free Jackson (?)- free Hammil (?) - 500K Other than wages, which will partly be covered by the likes of Tyson and Theo leaving, there's not much of an investment. Unless we sign Billy Sharp of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddesdenRam Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 So Defence we seem set on Brayford Keogh Baptiste Forsyth...... Freeman as fullback cover, Buxton as centre half cover, Barker to come in potentially. Forsyth will be on a very low wage coming from Scotland to Watford and not being a first team player and being young. Baptiste will be on a standard championship wage being a important first team player at Blackpool. 2-3k a week Forysth - 100-200k transfer fee 6-8k a week Baptiste - free agent Bosman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point. But the ability to take on a man is needed. I for one will believe it when i see it, but i am looking forward to see what happens this summer, could be v-interesting!

I have been told a few names in positions you wouldn't expect, kind of annoying that I can't say anything but thats the situation. 2 people mentioned would be great signings with excellent, proven experience.

ChaddesdenRam Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 There will be a host of other Championship clubs after Baptiste, what would give us the edge over our rivals to sign him? Nothing. Maybe the fact that he used to play with Buxton and Barker and he is local might play a part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think we are urinating in the wind, if he's any good then he will be going elsewhere and if he does sign for us means he's not very good QED what seamless logic lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there have been signings in the past where we have beaten off competition. Barker had several clubs in for him including Forest (the club he supported). Shackell we beat Burnley who were desperate for him, it's rumoured that one of reasons why he went for derby was because of the other squad additions we were making. The same could work this summer; a kind of positive multiplier effect in that we could bring in one player and then other experienced players see the signings and feel more inclined to sign themselves.
