There was rumours of Stockley being linked with us too, Just watched his goals from his time playing for Exeter, Not a bad record there (51 goals in 98 apps) Can't remember him Standing out too much at aberdeen, Although i wasn't really watching him too closely, Maybe worth a loan until end of the season to see how he goes and then offer him a deal if he does well.

Big Moysey Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Stockley perhaps seems the most likely of the names mentioned to date? He did cost Preston £750k from Exeter and is reportedly on around £5k a week wage though. That said, if we can ship a couple like Zlamal and Damour out, he may be worth the investment? Would give us a different option from our current forwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy the jambo Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Are players reluctant to leave if they’re on easy money and settled with their families,Compared to moving to a new place with local restrictions due to covid. If it was me,I’d be holding tight and see what the summer brings if I was looking for a new club. I doubt our wage thieves players will leave as they’re rubbish and clubs know that.

When he was at Motherwell, he was immense and if he is still at that level he'd be a cracking signing. However, he's not really maintained that consistency after moving back down south and has had trouble with injuries. Seems a bit Stevie May territory, he might not be half the player he was. Seems like a bit of a gamble if we are interested and I doubt he'd be cheap either. We definitely arent intrested so wouldnt worry too much.

TheBigO Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 22 minutes ago, BarneyBattles said: Some players just fit certain clubs. I believe Ginelly is one of those. He’s looked excellent for us and I really hope he stays. I've always been jealour of teams in Scotland who've had really quick, dangerous wingers over the last few years. There have been loads it seems at Motherwell, Aberdeen, Hibs and we've been on the receiving end a few times from it. We tried it with Mulraney and basically he very very rarely used his pace, despite being possibly the quickest player in the league! Having Ginelly is brilliant. He's so direct. His first thought every time he gets the ball is to drive forward. Roberts is quick as hell too, and powerful. Robbie needs to work hard on him to get him to use it. He kept cutting back against Alloa. Maybe it's a confidence thing. It's so basic, but a guy who just runs and drives with the ball is a nightmare - I know, I was a FB in my uninspiring playing days!! You might get the better of him 20 times, but if he gets past you the 21st, it's a goal. Or you need to drop deep, but then the whole defence has to, and that opens space for Irving and Boyce etc to work. If we get our target man, a deep defence allows him to boss them too, so it's a real problem for a defence to have real pace to think about.

Absolute Scenes Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 If we are after a striker I hope it’s stockley. Decent record overall, 1 in 3 near enough in his whole career. Not really shone at Aberdeen but was at a time where Aberdeen were consistently finishing 2nd and had strikers ahead of him. Not the worst record at Preston considering it’s ranked a higher league than the Scottish. Would be happy if it was him, would definitely give us grit up top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be nice to perhaps get a wee pre-contract or two done.

Batistuta87 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Its looking like big Lee Gregory is leaving Stoke. He's out of contract at the end of the season and a mate tells me they're trying to sign Cosgrove from Aberdeen as a replacement. His record with Stoke isn't excellent but looks alright elsewhere: 2011–2014 FC Halifax Town 129 (82) 2014–2019 Millwall 204 (64) 2019– Stoke City 46 (7) 32 y/o, but he's 6ft2, big strong aggressive striker who has at least got some goals to his name. Could be useful for next season but don't know what his wages will be like. Assuming Stoke will be paying an average of about £10k p/w...

Even Kingsley is not quite back to the level he was where he got caps. When you have two strikers at the club who are similar in style and injury prone I think it would be best to steer clear. A big guy and a quick one might be the way forward unless Savage can unearth someone who is both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
