Believe this is wide of the mark, expecting them to sign Stockley from PNE shortly.

Were we ever in for Stockley? He seems the perfect fit for what we need right now and have missed since Oliver left, in my opinion a massive step up from the 2 attackers we actually signed. I’m guessing it was a case of 2 players in Miller and Edmondson that KC had been after a while becoming available and that was it they were who we were going to sign, maybe it was financial but for me a missed opportunity. I’m still hoping Stockley signs for Sunderland instead with Bristol Rovers with them being a relegation rival.

I don't like to go against what you say, because you definitely are in the know. However, reports suggest he's turned Bristol Rovers down and is heading to either Sunderland or Hull City. We shall see  Wink

Hell of a signing for them...obvs the Tisdale link!

Anyone else in to take Smith on a perm or just loan interest from Chelts?

The Tisdale link makes sense.

Oh, yes please. That'll mean they will always be playing with 10 men, if selected of course.

I saw an article somewhere saying they want his 7k a week salary paying... think most teams in L1 will strugggle with that given the wage cap, Bristol Rovers especially. Hopefully they end up with a bargain bucket alternative.

The Stockdale link was always BR but never us! It appears that now according to TP Stockdale has turned down BR and heading for Hull etc.

As I understand it, Stockley has agreed but there’s a bit of wrangling over the wages and who’ll pay what. Someone mentioned £7k but I think it’s even higher than that.

Anyway I think their plan B has gone because I think Smith is off north of the border for the rest of the season (loan)

Think the big takeaway is that a permanent move to Rovers is the ideal situation for the club and Smith.

Rovers want Stockley, Smith second choice. Rovers pretty confident they’ve got Stockley.

As a result looks like a Scottish team has swooped in and will take Smith on loan for the rest of the season.

Hope that’s cleared it up and apologies for any confusion  Grin

Wages far too high for us

What has actually happened with Missilou and why is he now out of favour? Whenever I saw him earlier in the season he looked like a solid signing!

He runs around a lot and granted gets a foot in and wins the ball but it’s downhill from there he usually kicks it into touch. Not L1 standard IMO.

Am I the only one who also has doubts about Sean Mac in that respect?

Shaun McWilliams is comfortably our best player in my opinion. If he goes the rest of the season playing week in, week out, expect to see lots of interest in him from bigger League One sides.

I'm not sure I've seen a better ball-winning midfielder in the league this year watching on iFollow, his tenacity and ability to poke the ball away from opponents is top class. His ability to drive the ball forward breaking the lines is also quite impressive, and he leads by example with his aggression on the pitch. I know this sounds quite premature given that he hasn't really played a full uninterrupted season yet, but if I was KC I really would be sorting him out with a new multi-year contract and thinking about making him captain for the 21/22 season.

Championship quality, hence Derby's previous interest.
Hopefully contract talks being concluded.

For me we have had 2 players this season who have looked league 1 class in Sheehan and McWilliams, Shaun looks miles ahead in terms of quality to Sowerby, Watson and Missilou. Completely agree with OCoole in that if this club ever wants to be considered a professional outfit it should be offering McWilliams a new contract now instead of waiting till the end of the season and being shocked that he end up elsewhere.

So, Hull have withdrew their interest in Stockley, after having bids turned down & being unwilling to pay the wages he's currently on for a loan option...

Can't see how Bristol Rovers could gazump Hull financially...I appreciate the Tisdale link but pretty sure PNE ain't gonna be that sentimental during a pandemic!

I used to think similar to you in that respect BUT this season Shaun has come on and really looks the part in Center mid, as others have said miles better than Missalou.
We desperately need a right wing back, defender as a must once the utterly useless Smith goes.
Hats off to KC for this one, oh and if I’m being greedy a new L1 standard keeper.

Obviously we have no idea how much money he is on, say a rough estimate at £10K a week, you’d be talking around £150K for the last three and a half months of the season. There could be an issue with FFP but I don’t think if that sum is anywhere near correct it is that huge for a player that has the ability to be a game changer and keep you in the league.
