DCFC1388 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I think with Collins out and him being our only number 9, that we will syart to see more of a 3412/3421 like we finished with yesterday meaning Gayle would likely be in a front 2 with NML until Waggy & Washington are fit. We could switch to 343 with Barkhuizen, Sibley & CBT. In the next few weeks our attacking options could well be Gayle Waghorn Washington NML CBT Barkhuizen Sibley Wilson so thats still alot of good attacking options at this level JPRamFan, Caerphilly Ram, emjem and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eoghan1884 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 This thread does remind me a lot of the Jordan Rhodes thread when we were linked to him in the summer. Similar concerns and arguments around the signing and he’s 18 g/a in 25 games now. I think he’ll come in score a couple goals start the odd game be useful off the bench and then leave in the summer. Decent deal. Ram a lamb a ding dong, norwichram, Caerphilly Ram and 4 others 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC1388 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 We have seen that strikers of a certain quality can drop down to this level and can score plenty of goals. McGoldrick did it last season, Rhodes, Martin & Collins have this season too. I have no doubt Gayle has the quality still to score goals in this league. norwichram, Caerphilly Ram, Jimbo Ram and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyBritishMidland Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 He’d do a job in the last 1/3 of the season. He could come in, play 10-12 games and maybe get around 5 goals, give or take. Couple of things I picked up on Warne’s interview. He said we’d been working with the EFL on the deal ahead of submitting it on Friday. Given our new improved relationship with them, I’d like to think we’ve put something together that meets their criteria and this gets done early next week. He also said Waggy’s fit enough to play 20mins, another week of training and he could be on the bench next week 🤞. emjem, SKRam and Caerphilly Ram 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After listening to the Pearce/ Dom Dietrich interview on Radio Derby, Pearce said that once the January window closed, that brought an end to all EFL restrictions, so why are they still involved in the free agent market ?

My understanding of that, which I could be wrong and happily be corrected, was that this was very sloppy wording and what he meant was this was the final transfer window with restrictions In theory as you'd only be doing deals in the window, that would be the end of that...

Thameram Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Interesting that all the paperwork was done before the deadline friday so he could play against stevenage but efl held it up but they let reading sign player after player and do not pay them on time i've got a feeling they might block this don't know why but it seems a bit weird not to ratify a free agent who needs a living wage a job LeedsCityRam, Jackal, Carl Sagan and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether he would is unlikely but I would guess offers from other clubs should be considered irrelevant. therealhantsram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StaffsRam Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 If it is blocked by the clowns at the EFL then I'd be demanding a full rationale as to why. - We have whatever we got in the Bird deal - They were happy enough for us to sign a striker on deadline day - Presumably Collins' injury is covered by insurance So, WHAT exactly is the EFL's problem with this? Other than to blatantly screw us over one last time while they can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The restrictions of the BP are in place for the rest of this season. I think he wasn’t anticipating we would need to make any further signings this season but now that we do we need to comply with the BP. He did say they had to agree the Nyambe deal with the EFL, which was a similar situation. Otherwise, when it comes to the next window we can operate the same as any other club. That’s my take on it anyway. Edited February 18 by FlyBritishMidland jono, hintonsboots, rammieib and 2 others 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
