Callum Elder played 29 times for a side that finished mid table in the championship last season. Give them chance to show what they can do with a ram on their chest before completely writing them off. To be fair Elder could be reasonable signing. Hope the do OK but we'll need some quality to go with grafters if we're after top 2. Andrew3000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramarena Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I like the business we are doing. Whilst some of our fans have been losing their minds, our management team have been working hard and getting what look to be solid signings in key areas in defence that needed addressing. Hopefully they are in the process of pulling the same trick with midfield and attack which also need addressing. Obviously there’s no certainties with new signings, but things look good on paper.

Ram1988 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I am impressed by his interviews. Very positive and speaks well. He sounds like a likeable chap who will fit in with dressing room well. Already knows Mendez-Lang, Collins and Hourihane. SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsamwidge Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Solid signing for me. It may be a cliche but I like the way we're building from the back. FlyBritishMidland, SKRam, Caerphilly Ram and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rample Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Decent enough signing adding more experience to a revamped backline but a bit surprised he's only 6 foot and not a regular scorer. Prefer him to Bradley as Bradley has no pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSD Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 He's got league one experience. He's got a beard. But he's 30 years old and not late twenties. Booooooo awful signing. Against the transfer policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Names and reputation aren't everything. all true but mcgoldrick carried us, like with any signing it can go either way! i dont think reputation matters that much this signing doesnt really improve our age profile though which is my major worry, but at 30 will have a few years left in the tank yet Edited June 23, 2023 by alram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blondest Goat Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 2 hours ago, Gee SCREAMER !! said: Was Hoping for Bradley too be honest. I assume he has a championship offer. The players we're bringing in are not the calibre we brought in last season under tighter restrictions. No, but maybe they will be more effective at this level. Barkhuizen appeared a good signing on paper but wasn't particularly effective. NML ran out of steam, Chester barely played. Didzy obviously smashed it and Hourihane, for me at least, did well too. A mixed bag really. Nelson is another captain. Warne seems to be going for a certain type (leaders) which given the number of points we threw away last season can only be a good thing.

CapeTownRams Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Good signing I reckon. You can see what PW is trying to do and I like it… if we can just get those couple of strikers and attacking players….. will be the key …🙏🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see if the likes of nml and barks benefit now we have some actual wingbacks the aforementioned can concentrate on playing higher up the pitch where they do theyre best work… ditto sibley Andrew3000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Very pleased with this signing. Looks to be a solid and accomplished player with vast experience, in a position that’s in dire need of reinforcement. Will without doubt be an upgrade on Davies and Stearman who were both finished last season, and also should be much more reliable than Chester. Welcome to Derby Curtis! Still need a couple more at CB though imo, if we’re playing 3 at the back. We’re very short there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Ram Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 15 hours ago, Kokosnuss said: Sounds like an old school defender from what Blackpool fans say, make the tackle, clear the ball, by no means a passer and not particularly strong in the air but a good leader. They seem to have one fan on their forums who absolutely hates him but you'll pretty much always get that. Just had further liaison with my Blackpool season ticket mate who had originally responded to my enquiry with ‘donkey’. He was winding me up. He says he is a very steady, solid defender which is good to hear as he would have seen him more than any of us 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
