I would like to see the following with us :
michael kightly - Quick winger just what we need!
kieth andrews - old but still has alot to give.
luke chambers - I'm sure we enquired about him and we definately need a centre back to pair with Turner.
wes morgan, - Linked to in transfer windows.
Casper Ankergren - Cover for marshall since Heaton is on his way out.
Vassell - Can score at this level.

What are all your thoughts on this?

Are they all journeymen who won't really make a significant difference, or am I being cynical?

If last summer is anything to go by you need to be looking younger, mid-20s looking at Taylor, Conway, Gunnarson, Gestede. Earnie and Cowie were the only older players brought in on freebies and both were special cases with their connections to the club and manager.

I agree with you
think Vassell would be good cover as well as it seems Parkin is going in the summer with him being Loaned out everywhere so far this year

would really love to have Luke Chambers and Michael Kightly :ayatollah:

GK - Guzan and Fulop out of contract in the summer or possibly Joe Lewis of Peterbrough
DEF - Chambers (forest) and Loovens available?
MID - McGugan, McCann (Burnley), Liegertwood, Anderson, Stock, Thomas (West Brom), Gomez, Buszaky, Andrews
STR - O'Connor and Elliott out of contract in scotland, McFadden, Lovenkrands, Fuller, Simeon Jackson, Jay Rodriguez, Barnes (Brighton)

I wouldn't mind Lloyd Sam, Ashley Barnes, Paul Anderson , Micheal Kightly or Butterfield here would all make good addition to the squads imo, but i thought McKenna signed for Hull permanently on a two year deal in the summer ??

Re: Players from other clubs out of contract in the summer

Fri Mar 23, 2012 6:45 pm

Lloyd Sam. Quick winger is what we need

Re: Players from other clubs out of contract in the summer

Pretty sure McCleary (of Forest) contract is up shortly - as they were lining up a new offer for him. He's a decent player.

Re: Players from other clubs out of contract in the summer

Fri Mar 23, 2012 7:25 pm

Loovens, Kightly and Andrews please

That should do the job!

Re: Players from other clubs out of contract in the summer

has i have said before what we dont want is lots more young up and comeing players if we do we will not be in any better position than we are this season! we def need is a proven striker to supplement or join kenny up front! as that is our main failing this year having inexperienced backup/partner for kenny (dont say ernie ffs) but going on malkies history ect dont think we will get one so not that optimistic next season but will still be there! :ayatollah:

jackson would be a dream, proper pace and a goal scorer. dare i say it a bit like earnie in his younger days!

Re: Players from other clubs out of contract in the summer

Fri Mar 23, 2012 11:33 pm

Jackson is very much a young earnie. Comes alive in the box.

Would welcome him here. Will get goals at this level if we attack that is.

Problem is, a lot of the posters don't like the Polish coming over here, stealing jobs etc. Just take a look at some of the threads.
