To be fair he is a direct replacement for Goode.
Are the cobblers cloning these defenders!

He looks decent.


Morrison’s.  Grin

I dunno i'd say he is verging on sainsburys

Apparently Wolves and QPR were after him in 2018.

Seems a decent player.

I’d be interested to know what happened to him and his career over the last couple of years if he was rated at £200k and attracted wolves and qpr in 2018 and ended up at Macclesfield.

I see we are back to plundering the bottom of the football league for players, if I’m honest he doesn’t look like he is blessed with pace but certainly can pass a decent ball.
Is he a better replacement than Turnbull? not a chance.

you have literally just described him as the same player as turnbull then said he isn't a replacement for him.

that said, the only person who thought turnbull was a footballer and not a defender was turnbull...................its why he has once again ended up at a league 2 team - big fish, small pond. Bang average centre half.

I always wondered what Woody was short for, that’s cleared that up then?

Yet, he's probably on a quarter of what Turnbull was...get with reality and the current state of lower league football  Roll Eyes

Good housekeeping as per by KC  Grin

Not expecting anything.

A bigger question now, does 1 signing constitute a busy week? (Asking for a friend)  Grin

Lets not forget that Macclesfield were deducted 17 points and would have finished 16th under normal circumstances. They conceded 47 goals, which is only 4 more than promoted Crewe.

I think this could be a very decent signing. Curle has proven that he can develop centre backs and hopefully this guy can be the next Goode/Pierre.

What we need is some experience alongside him. In an ideal world of course that would come in the form of Goode but obviously that's looking increasingly unlikely.  From a more realistic perspective, I'd like to see us sign an experienced centre back and leader and also a third centre back with pace. We would also need at least one more to provide back up/competition for places.

It is so easy spending KT and DB's money.I am so glad you have no say in the running of the club.

Stick to your keyboard and the fantasy football manager and leave the real world to the professionals!

That’s just it though, it’s not just KT and DB’s money is it?
It’s the season ticket holders and sponsors money that expect a competitive L1 team and right now we are a mile away from that.
We need some experience and a marquee signing.....

Morton looked terrible in his first few games Fact.
I give you he came very good to such an extent that he will never play for us again.

You also said James Collins was poor, which also didn't age well. Maybe judging strikers is not your thing ay.

Regarding Morton not looking like a world beater in his first 5 seconds, he is young, had been out injured and  was playing in a new team? If you know everything about football, like your statements seem  to indicate you do, you will know some players sometimes need to adjust.

I recommend listening to bit of Bob Marley...Positive Vibrations, might help.

Macclesfield triggered a 1 year extension to Horsfall's contract in June but it was null and void if they got relegated thus no fee. It seems KC would appear to consider he can progress his career with us similarly to Goode. The lad appears to have the ambition to push on and further his career and trusting KC's transfer record to date I doubt this horse falls at the first hurdle.

It would seem pointless to pontificate over future signings as so far we have signed 4 players and not 1 got a mention on here before they signed, nobody had a clue.
