lappinitup 629 Posted January 21, 2015 Graeme Bailey @GraemeBailey Hearing Milwall trying to sign Jos Hooiveld - would be a huge signing Ian Holloway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Move Klose 303 Posted January 21, 2015 Be good for all parties i would say, a strange signing at the time when we had so many other centre backs, maybe a new coming in or a certain someone is back in the first team frame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lewis Esquire 0 Posted January 21, 2015 So many other centre backs... But you still think someone new is coming in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Move Klose 303 Posted January 21, 2015 Well at the time we had so many yes. Martin appears to be a right back again, Ryan Bennett is injured. Cuellar & Turner didnt exactly set the world alight. And you never know our NEW manager mightfancy signing his own players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he''s truly back in the fold it will give us Bassong, Turner, Cuellar, Bennett and Martin as back up meaning Hooiveld would be well down the pecking order.Going to be an interesting few days.....

River End Canary 0 Posted January 21, 2015 Would rather have a motivated Seb than JH any day of the week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daly 500 Posted January 21, 2015 So many center backs and its now its near end of Jan and still no idea who is able to perform week in week out.Clear half of them out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DanTheMan 2 Posted January 23, 2015 JH doesn''t really bring anything that we didn''t have already. A fit Bennett or motivated Bassong makes him surplus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woodman 92 Posted January 23, 2015 [quote user="DanTheMan"]JH doesn''t really bring anything that we didn''t have already.

lappinitup 629 Posted January 23, 2015 Paddy Davitt @paddyjdavitt #ncfc boss AN confirms hooiveld free to move on. Not going to be involved hereThat''s it then, he''s out of the door. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 271 Posted January 23, 2015 and seb is back in then. Good to be certain & time move on; from what I have seen he was v similar to Turner (matched him most of the time, one game significantly better for each) but Cuellar has impressed me more at cb so its good decision. no refund on the loan fee I assume - good spending.Leaves with an unbeaten record W3D3 12 points from 18.

wcorkcanary 4,329 Posted January 23, 2015 I think this an indication of how AN will go about things, no ''will he, won''t he'' just make an appraisal and inform the player that he''s free to go. job done thanks and bye.Jeez, i hope we get Seb Bassong the pretty decent CB not his identical twin that has sleep apnea .

Horse Renoir 1 Posted January 23, 2015 Bassong for Hooiveld is a hell of a trade up! :P Even in second gear Bassong is streets ahead of Hooiveld who for me is a poor man''s Cuellar...who in turn is a poor man''s Turner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newton 0 Posted January 23, 2015 The first of Adams terrible transfer dealings to be moved on - wonder what the loss is ?Anyone know ?Doubt if we will get any of the fee back we paid Southampton & may even be subsidising his wages to get him off the books for the next 5 months Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,638 Posted January 23, 2015 I didn''t think there was a great deal wrong with Jos - our form with him at the back was pretty good; clearly if SB is back in the fold he is surplus to requirements, though - and nothing really to do with being a ''failed transfer''.

Barclay seats 4849 the 3rd 0 Posted January 24, 2015 It also begs the question ; if AN is to make these decisions , seemingly with no messing around , ( short time for contemplation ) will he make some good , some bad judgements ?On a more positive note ,, is he clearing squad numbers to get more attacking players i as opposed to a plethora of defenders midfielders that we have at the moment ?

Newton 0 Posted January 24, 2015 Barclay agree with you - think AN has started to clear out the dead wood Adams assembled in the summer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
