vulva Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Megson commented in the BBC interview earlier that the club had moved on from Plan B to Plan E & F etc... Its official: we are desperate for strikers. Our pre season mistake has been to consider Mellor a done deal. It's confusing as we've known the details of his contract for 18 months, so we would have known a long time back whether we were in a position to afford him. Either someone has moved the goalposts, or we are being cheeky shites and trying to get him for a song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frastheowl Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Decent player for a mid table team, did very well at Bury last season and scored some crackers too......if we were to sign anyone who played for Bury last season it would of been Ajose who they had on loan from Man Utd, cracking little player great pace and can finish! I had heard he'd signed for bury not 100% sure! He's signed for Peterborough I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Saturday Owl Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 He's signed for Peterborough I think. Yep he went to Peterborough on a permanent deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WoodhouseOwl77 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) Yep he went to Peterborough on a permanent deal. Nicky Ajose would have been a good signing!!! Edited July 31, 2011 by WoodhouseOwl77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shezza91 Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 I startd this thread back in July and as you can see from the comments, people just took the wee wee, called it bullshit and slated Lowe. It seems from other, more recent posts thay there may have been some truth in it after all and it seems that now, the majority would actually welcome him to the club and see it as a potential good signing. How things can change in just a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How things can change in just a few weeks. Like we both said before his goalscoring record in recent years is very impressive. The start he has made to this season in League 1 will have impressed too. I'm sure he wouldn't have been most peoples first choice, but if he delivers the goods that is all that matters. :wink: I think some peoples opinions will have changed after the game at Gigg Lane too.

Bluesteel Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Wouldn't be my first choice, but you can't argue with 7 goals already. Its like Dzeko, he's right on form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curren Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 (edited) The Ryan Lowe i saw at Gigg lane would walk into our side 32 or not but ill bow to the knowledge of folk on here who have probably never seen him play.. How old is Kevin Phillips anyone? Edited August 29, 2011 by curren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Like Phillips, Lowe doesn't need pace so you could be right. You'd think Morrison could do the same job but it isn't happening...not yet anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think Morrison could do the same job but it isn't happening...not yet anyway. exactly. Lowe could take the role Clinton was meant to be filling and hasn't been able to. i praise Morrison's effort and work-rate so far this season; he has improved that area. still doesn't carry much of a goal threat though. Madine's first goal saturday should have been burried at the near post by Clinton before it even got to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stevenfox999 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Are people being serious when they say they have never heard of him? He has been banging goals in consistantly week in week out now for the past 2 1/2 years. Ok he is old at 32 but if we are wanting to get out of this league, he could be exactly the type of player we need, if only for a season or so?

davey_wells Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 They had an interview with him on Football League Weekend or something the other day on the build up to the Bury vs Charlton game at the weekend just gone - seems a decent souser - and someone who is already one of the best strikers in this league. Has a wicked free kick on him too. I think at least 2 of his 7 have been free kicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southportdc Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Would Bury want to sell him this late though? He could be the difference for them this season and they probably won't get a replacement in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
