England Ram Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Not going to knock the thinking from Clough behind this. His record with Hooper was spot on (lilttle and larger partnership) and if him and Ward can get some partnership going even half of that then lovely, it would still make it 10 times better than what we have now. If not, then we are screwed anyway. Doesnt look like there is much of this Premiership quality out there available in the loan window:-( Although, Balotelli is back fit so Man City may be willing to release thier bench warmer, whoever it is to us now. Thinking ahead to summer, if we survive in this division, when all the loanees go back to their clubs it leaves us with a next to nothing squad:-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh dragon Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 You're right, we should have got Adebayour, Santa Cruz and put cheeky bids for Henry and Beckham:rolleyes: yes you are rhight even the blades are going for prem strikers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rynny Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 yes you are rhight even the blades are going for prem strikers Marcus Bent would have a similar response to what ward has, and others recently, like Kuqi and Dickov, but wouldn't have the effect that they did.

Mary Hindge Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Just like Keogh was the reason Billy Sharp scored so many for Scunny imo Hayes was the reason Hooper scored so many so happy with this, I have no idea why it hasnt worked out at PNE for him, I think our attack is looking alright now! Just wish GSE had tried harder in the window to make some of these perm in the window!!! hope we add more quality in the summer COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramexpat Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Yes ok the Names , Ward & Hayes dont fill us with confidence , but neither did D.J Campbell or Shefki Kuqi ,, give them 90 mins and then past judgement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly a squad full of loans is it? (3 of them 4 haven't even played for us yet) No, but then take away Savage, take away Porter possibly as he ends his contract and I'd be amazed if anyone gave him a new contract based purely on helath grounds. That leaves us with(realistic first team players who are not perenialy injured or reserves): Bywater Brayford Roberts Barker Leacock Addison Cywka Bailey Pearson Green B Davies S Davies Ward 13 players at my count, half of a squad, and not a very good squad at the mo either. Don't get me wrong, most of these played earlier in the seaon when we were doing well and I rate a few of these, but looking at it like this shows how much quality we need to bring, compounded by having so many loan players to tide us over.

UTR.93 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 christ, some people get worse! You would moan and whinge if Clough never got anyone in, now he's actually making progress signing a few players your slitting your wrists! Give these players a chance just because they don't cost multi million pounds and all come from the likes of Man Utd or Chelsea doesn't mean they won't perform for us, GIVE THEM A CHANCE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
