Probably inside right.

Nah, he'll replace Mr. Crooks up front

Is this yet another bench-warming midfielder? Has Anthony Barry left? I think his loan was "until January".

....and Craig Rodden?

Will be interesting to see if he figures, his goal tally suggests the Tactical Genius my put him up front!

Antony Barry trained today,so did Seamus ,I never saw Rodden

Ah, yes. Craig Roddan. I had totally forgotten about him. Signed on a short-term deal if I remember rightly.

And the manager's words at the time: “We have to fill a hole in our squad and he fits the bill. I’ve got no problems with playing him if I have to.”

We seem to do quite well with players who "fit the bill" and "tick the right boxes".

This is an interesting new quotation from Coley: “What I will say is that just because a player isn’t playing one week, doesn’t mean he won’t be playing the week after.” It does seem to mean exactly that for James Gray.

It would be a start if he actually told the truth for once.

Given Stanley's reluctance to put the ball in the net it does seem a little baffling that the first arrival of 2015 is yet another defender. Having said that, I hope he adds something to the squad.
But I also hope that such a defensive 'coming' does not presage a 'going' from the heart of what has been a pretty solid defensive squad.

I wouldn't mind betting thats exactly what will happen,

Reluctance to put the ball in the net? Up until last weekend we were the second highest scorers in the league

Aye but super john is reluctant to play goalscorers.

Of course your right. I should have said a reluctance to take chances when they come (I still go cold thinking about Yeovil).
