NottsCanary 0 Posted May 21, 2008 With all this transfer talk I''ve heard from so many different people possibles and definites that I am wondering what everyones opinion is of our opening day of the season lineup...We could make some sort of competition out of this surely? Points for correct players?I''ll start off with a long shot but hey we can dream can''t we? MarshallOtsemobor Gorkss Taylor BertrandChadwick Russell Fozzy Etherington Rigters EvansI''ve heard from someone Etherington, Rigters, Taylor are close to signing and Gorkss is possibility but Palace have inside track... Bertrand and Evans would be nice additions but can''t see it happening myselfLet''s see some more predictions, realistic or not who cares Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NottsCanary 0 Posted May 21, 2008 if Fozzy goes then who do you reckon will be in his place? We haven''tbeen linked with many centre midfielders, i can''t think of any apartfrom Gibbs back on loan? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigGreenStoppingMachine 0 Posted May 21, 2008 My team is based on if Doc and Fozzy resign and that Croft and Marshall don''t get snapped up by Stoke or West Brom! Swap them for Rudd, Eagle and..........Oh dear!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Bunsen 0 Posted May 21, 2008 come on people lets be positive. I honestly think we''ll sign about 8 players. yes good players at that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If GR went to the board end of season and they told him there would be no money to spend would he have released 9 players? and not signed up Doc and Fozzy by now?Whats wrong with thinkin positive? Majority of this forum are all doom and gloom, nice to see a few positive posters out there :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheCardinal 0 Posted May 22, 2008 I think it''s hard to make any detailed guesses, but what the hey!I think Marshall will retain his place in goal with Declan Rudd providing back up. I think Gilks will be sold.Right back will see a new player come in - Jack Cork from Chelsea would be my bet. I think Otsemobor will probably start on opening day, though with Cork as the versatile player on the bench for now.At left back I hope we''ll see the return of Plastic Bertrand. He''s a class act and I think will start on the first day of the season ahead of Drury.Center half I think one of Doc (after he signs a new contract) or Shack will be joined by Kasper Gorkss. If it were me, I''d play Doc with Gorkss and Shacks on the bench.Right midfield will be David Bell with Luke Chadwick providing cover; Lee Croft will be sold. Left midfield will be Matty Etherington with Matty Pattison providing cover.Central midfield will be Russell and Fotheringham with someone else in to provide cover. No idea who - possibly this McDonald chap.Finally your strikers; I''m going to guess Rasiak and Rigters with Curo on the bench.So team is:MarshallSemi Doc Gorkss BertrandBell Fozzy Russell EtheringtonRasiak RigtersSubs: Rudd, Shacks, Cork, Chadwick, Curo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
