Bluesteel Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Megson confirms on the OS that he has handed a list of six names to Aldridge and Milan as players he would like to sign. All "British, experienced and of the right character to get us where we want to go". All will become clear in time but I think we will be pleasantly suprised as to who we go for, Milan seems to like being ambitious. Robbie Blake has been one name mentioned on here by various people, I'd say Rob Jones and Danny Baath would be another 2, Steve Howard? It certainly shows there will be a fair few leaving which is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lincowl Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Baath has just signed a new 2 or 3 year deal at Wolves, he won't be one of them. Four year and he could be possible for a season long loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be interesting, if not a bit messy. Edited April 30, 2011 by Weshallovercome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcclesallOwl Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Interesting... Megson definitely reads Owlstalk. He knows that Owlstalk would be boring over summer because of the disappointing season so he says their are 6 new players that he wants. So now their will be speculation ALL summer about who these six players are. And their will be a lot more people ITK throughout the summer :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Saturday Owl Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Sammy Clingan? Robert Earnshaw? Rob Jones? These sprang to mind when he said experienced, I can see a big signing too this summer. Next season we'll blow the pigs out of the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I trust Megson to recruit. He made some excellent signings during his time at West Brom and Bolton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danblakemore Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Why? Just my personal opinion. i think there are a number of factors why we failed with a promotion chllenge this season, but the main reason in my opinion was the recruitment of players at the twighlight of their careers. For me more recruitment needs to take place from teams around us who have played a majority of games around league one. its a horses for courses plicy for next season, then build again if successful. I worry that someone like Earnshaw would not be fully commited and also his number one ability of pace, may be going. Teale, Sedgwick and Morrison havre all shwon that buying players from higher divisions doesnt always prove to be the right move. If i was GM, I'd be sniffing round Rochdale, Exeter etc, offering terms to players who will further their career by coming to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eckington owl Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I trust Megson to recruit. He made some excellent signings during his time at West Brom and Bolton and his short time at SWFC, albeit loans but good signings none the less. Added to his impressive player recruitment record for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
