chaperz21 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Heard from a Scunny mate that we are leading the chase to sign Mirfin who is out of contract in the summer. He has nothing but praise for him, and he says Mirfin deserves Championship football, maybe even higher one day. Don't know much about him, not the most reliable source I know but thought I'd let you all know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hucknall Ram Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Why because his leg fooked and had to retire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks a bit "special" to me. If we sign him we would have to put a lock on the cupboard under the sink- we don't want him drinking all the bleach....

samtheram83 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 his nickname is 'The ox'. wonder if he'll be like mooro? not sure that i'm over confident about signing a 26yr old 6'1" CB from relegated ssausagehorpe! although on SSN website their manager seem to think he is championship quality. don't know anything about him. is he a head an kick it or a ball playing center back? anyone know anything?

p.shilton Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 judging by his nickname and his size/ weight (14 stone 4!) I'd say head and kick as he is likely to be pretty immobile! I know that Leacock and Anderson have had their problems recently but not sure that this guy is going to be an improvement- haven't seen him play though so reserve judgement. Just a thought, maybe he could fill in for Barker if he is going to be out for longer than they are letting on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samtheram83 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 14st seems pretty weighty for 6'1" but maybe not for a centre back. i'm 6' and way 3.5 stone less than this guy but would probably get knocked of the ball by bueno! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfcdavecov Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Muscle weighs alot. I'm classed as overweight on the BMI but it's because i go down the gym alot. Probably about right for a strong CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p.shilton Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Not suggesting that the guy is overweight by any stretch- just saying that taller, muscular players don't tend to be quick/ charge about the pitch. I imagine that he is a header/ kicker rather than someone who is going to come charging forward with the ball (which I don't think a CB should do anyway!).

NothernRam Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Compared with Mirfin Barker looks like Kate Moss. http://i006.radikal.ru/1105/9e/3200778cab56 http://s58.radikal.ru/i159/1105/8d/d94b941adbd6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samtheram83 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Oh and my nob is massive. That's a Daveo classic. i can see that judging by ur avatar but it must be a pain what with it being a florist fan. i know muscle ways more than fat and i wasn't suggesting he is a porker but 3.5 stone for an inch of height? the guy must be beefed up to the max and not someone i would want to be colliding with! could be good. very deceptive against bigger forwards and a totally rock hard center back!

This point about not being mobile bcause you're big doesn't stack up though. Addison looks less mobile, because he's got alot bigger on the top half of his body. I'm guessing due to his foot injury, leg work wasn't an option, and i think that's the prolblem with him. If this guy works his legs aswell then he won't be any less mobile....quicker if anything.
