But is working on a shoestring with 4 options at right back Yes this is definitely a DM signing. Love posts like this, when a player says he signed after speaking to the gaffer and what he wants and expects from him. Hunt why are you lieing 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Surely we should have been in for Mullin. We are so unbelievably short upfront and he should have been an achievable signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping we have our sights set on slightly better players. Such as loans from PL clubs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plonk Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 And we are off. Every signing so far....brilliant that DMs in charge of transfers. Chansiri has seen sense. Hunt signs....obvious now that DMs not in charge of signings Chansiri is a clown. Just amazed nobody has said it’s Paxo yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Darren Moore managerial career spanning West Brom, Doncaster and Us, Jack Hunt is only the 5th player out of about 40+ signings that DM had made that is 30 and over. When DM came in he was too make us a young, hungry side, with energy. We have next to no money to spend on anyone and bringing in a 4th option at right back is one of the managers priority before signing a striker or keeper??

I know Wrexham are quids in. But a very odd move still. They’re calling him Paul Mullon on their OS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzys Dad Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Why do so many assume, that any player who signs elsewhere, we weren’t in for? We have an unbelievable belief, that all these players are gagging to come here. They’re not ( shock, horror). We are an unattractive spent force, that will only attract players that no other clubs want. Get real. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Whatever your thoughts on us signing Hunt, he’s arguably better than any of the right-back options we had before his arrival? But we’re not signing any strikers so let’s all jump off a cliff? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only managed 3 teams its not a long list. But I ask you, if you are having kids on trial, have signed a left back with next to no first team experience, a central midfielder whos 22 only playing 20 odd games, then brought in a lad from QPR for the wing whose 24 with no experience above league one. We have a manager saying in public he is looking at keepers and strikers then we sign an ex player right back, even though we have 2 senior players and one kid making the step up, who can play in that position. The sign just make no sense unless we have players being sold which in Palmer's case is very unlikely. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palmer, Iorfa and Dawowu Palmer is a right back Iorfa is a right back converted to centre back who previous was signed as a right back and has played many games there but for injury last season would still be a right back. Josh Dawowu sign from the Arsenal youth team a few years ago plays right back and has played that position in some of the friendlies this preseason. 3 decent options Striker options err we dont have any Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has brought in four players so far. Two 22-year-olds, a 24-year-old, and a 30-year-old. The common denominator being that they were all free. Seems pretty normal to me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minesapint Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 DM needed to sign a whole host of players and yes the strikers position and probably goal keeper are priority. But I don’t understand why no one should be signed until these positions are filled first which is what some seem to be implying. He presumably has a list of positions and when the right opposites Along signs someone and ticks that box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
