To be fair I think the reason we never saw him in the first team here was mainly down to the fact he wasn't signing a contract. Maybe he was demanding more than we thought he was worth but it makes sense that we weren't going to push a player who could be leaving for free so soon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shefcanary 2,409 Posted January 4 Matos has to be careful he doesn't go the way of Alex Kiwomya, my daughters pal, who signed for Chelsea youth at 14, was in their youth team that lost to us in the FA Youth Cup final, appeared on the bench for their first team a few times at 18 and represented England from U16 through U19, but then went out on loan to the likes of Barnsley, Fleetwood, Crewe before signing for Doncaster, then Chesterfield, Kings Lynn and now plies his trade at Stalybridge Celtic and is only 27. Kiwomya had a father and uncle who had what in hindsight were better FL careers, after blossoming late. Matos needs to keep his feet on the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's made this "quick progression" by going to a team below us in the League who we've already played and beaten twice???????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarge will gain cult hero status, and can help re-galvanise the club. I really hope he’s here next season and stays fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,234 Posted January 5 Surprised we would be looking for a striker but if he's without club.... Hwang won't be here next season and Barnes will be 35 (!!) so if the data crunchers think he has more going for him than what we already have on the books then could be worth a punt.

Why wouldn't we be looking for a striker. We can never have too many and the ones that we have (Sargent possibly excepted) are currently not up to the job.

Big O 225 Posted January 5 Notice the noisy neighbours have been fairly decisive in bringing in a couple of players on loan. I get the sense that we will be very quiet in this window other than bosmans or younger players for the U23’s from lower leagues who have potential. Would like to see us do something for the first team but get the sense we need all the out of contract players off the books to thin out the wage bill.
