Hans Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Notwithstanding trying to sign Thorne we have had a relatively busy transfer window. Even if some of the signings aren't significant first teamers. Jonathan Mitchell Alban Bunjaku Andre Santos Lee Naylor Zak Whitbread Cyrus Christie Apart from the two old timers, and particularly with Santos and Bunjaku we have some promising young players this transfer window.

As you say they aren't significant first team players(Mitchell, Bunjaku, Santos, Naylor) , won't be happy until we have a stellar signing like Thorne and another right back.

Agree on how ***** some of our loans have been. But that's not the fault of the loan system. From Nicky Hunt to Sunu we've had some donkeys. But there's lots of cases of great loans. You get players you can't really dream of buying. Sometimes they might stick around too if you're lucky. It's when lads have gone to big clubs and see being loaned out as step down rather than a chance to step up. Like the Chelsea lad that was on loan at Forest and Boro. Clearly talented but he obviously thinks he's done his lower league service and earned his move to Chelsea. Certainly didn't embrace his time at Forest. Compared to Wisdom who got really into what we were about and really seemed to focus on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawkins, Wisdom, Thorne and that prancing Chelsea tosspot Bamford? Yup, all played their part. These are the loans we want. Highly rated kids and/or players left out of the very best teams squads. Not Michael Tonge. Ah! Just remembered Michael Keane. Didn't like him. Not that good and couldn't be arsed to fight for his place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Were Keane and Smith in pre-mclaren? Not using them to Clough-bash, just wondering. Smith was. Now that you mention it Keane was set up under Nigel and completed under McClaren I think. He's probably a good player but when he didn't hit the ground running and lost his place he went toddling off looking for guaranteed first team football. As if such a thing exists. Has to be earned fella!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
