Ex-Player Watch 19/20

Went to watch Danny Graingers managerial debut ,he seems to have the reds a lot fitter and more organised trying to play on the deck and out from the back,Dave Symington scored 2 long range efforts but I was very Impressed with Casson and Brockbank ,both released by the blues in the summer and both look like they have the determination to pull themselves back up the football ladder

Danny Livesey scoring a fluke for Chester City last weekend, hope link works. His goal from about 1 min 20 seconds

I misunderstood above when it said not alone.

I misunderstood when he said George Waring scored. His goal is at 13 days, 9 hours and 36 minutes

Sam Cosgrove linked to none other than Lazio today. La Gazzetta dello Sport are a big Italian news organisation, so must have a decent source. That sell-on clause could be massive for us if the deal is with a few million.

Did we have a sell on for Cosgrove?

2% Rising to 5 if he wins 100 caps.

Lummy was saying on the radio that the sell on is a 'substantial' one pal so the way Cosgrove is playing then we could be set for a large sum.

Bennett and Amoo scoring for Port Vale.

Congrats to Paddy Madden on his 100th league goal tonight

Wyke also scored tonight

3 cheers for Paddy Madden. Hip hip hooray

Munchy is the 30% mentioned on the other thread right or just a guess, seems a very good sell on if true?

Just guessing pal, 30% to be honest I would call substantial but it could be even higher as I bet Aberdeen didn't expect him to be as prolific and they hardly paid the world for him so should have worked in our favour.

Lummy will have a better idea but I would imagine it is around that.

I know we bit Aberdeen's hand of at the offer but in hindsight maybe if we had kept him till the end of that season he would have fired us to promotion but then again we needed the cash and it is only because he has shone at Aberdeen that we could pick up some proper money.

OK, pal thanks. I really can't see it being as much as 30%. IMO Aberdeen would be mad to let us have that amount. Would think more like 15/20% and i think that is fairly substantial, considering they would have got him for nothing 5 months later. I maybe very wrong tho

Still circa 400k would not to be sniffed at, especially if we get it in January of course - I am hoping for a Cosgrove bidding war then who knows how much we could get

whatever the fee the club get from Cosgrove transferring anywhere, you can be assured any money owed to the club, the current transfer policy will continue. nothing will change!

The word from the cub was that it was a good sell on fee when he left.

Good step for O’Hare. Way too good for league 2 once he found his feet.

Good attitude and mentality as well as his obvious ability, I think he’ll do well in League 1.

O'Hare was an absolute joy to watch. Hope he goes on and does well at Coventry, would have loved him back here for one more season.

Exactly what we need at the minute, shame we probably wouldn't have entertained it.

To be fair, he wouldn't suit the way we're trying to play. Not really mobile enough. Not saying that we're playing well in the way we're trying to play, but still.

No matter how we want to play you'd have to be mental to have Scougall and Bridge over Devitt.

I'd have him over Scougall in a heartbeat but he'd be mad to come back if I'm honest.

Ryan Bowman scores for Exeter, they're clear at the top now

Jerry Yates - 2 in five minutes for Swindon

Jason Kennedy for Hartlepool

10th of the season for Sam Cosgrove, and it's still summer

Wyke sent off for Sunderland

Callum o'hare Coventry

See George Glendon signed for Chester....shame for this lad thought he looked classy at times...that's it tho, "at times"

See Mansfield had a red issued( Sweeney)for an elbow on Bowman.....up to their horrible tricks still then.

Just noticed Parkes was an unused sub for Exeter.

Meppen-Walter was a sub yesterday, but getting some games before that. I understand his history, but, sh*t, he could've been a player... He looked a great talent on occasion...

Nadesan on the bench for Crawley yesterday.
Sowerby not even in the squad for Fleetwood, is he injured??

CMW had everything but common sense - still applies now.

Sowerby picked up a knock in their midweek league game against Wycombe on 20/8 and they didn't want to rush him back.

Connor Simpson on loan to Accrington.

He loves Nando's. Struggles with his weight but definitely has some ability.
