Yeah, some womens games are worth a watch but they couldn't live at tier 10 level. They have narrowed the gap and we are going through a period where the men have better training than ever before and are more skilful than ever before. Women and men will never be able to compete against each other purely down strength and maybe we should stop making the comparison between the to and just enjoy each the games they play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprised he is more than capable of being a decent squad player for Newcastle and will be a relatively cheap option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Daughter got player of the match last week when they had a training session and went in goal. Pulled off some great saves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moved to Crawley last season with a tally of 13 goals at better than one in three. Wasn't we linked with him last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose if he has the right attitude then he's still got plenty to offer at this level; if his new teammates end up calling out his effort in training as happened here last season, then he'll probably continue his downward trajectory.

Plonk Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 So based on the bookies odds for next season that will be fox fletcher and FF all moved on to sides with better prospects. While we still have one non firing striker on our books? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westy365owl Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 If we're going to be signing anybody from Europe or beyond it needs to be getting done this week at latest as we have to take into account the fact the player will have to quarantine for 14 days before he can even start to train nevermind be involved with the squad . Which means he will be atleast a month behind the rest of team before we will see him on pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloxwich Owl Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 According to a report from the Daily Mail, Brentford are ready to rival “a number” of Premier League sides in the chase for £5m rated German winger Robin Hack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Unfortunately I think it’s time we have to move on from Murphy with it sounding like he will be staying at Newcastle. Shame because he is a very good player at this level but we can’t sit back and wait imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'A raid' makes it sound like the Forest officials are going to rock up at Birmingham's training ground in ski masks and balaclavas, pile Jutkiewicz into the back of a van, and make a dash for the Nottinghamshire border. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed although in fairness, if the link to the Rangers winger is true then I think Monk is already exploring other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
