Is he still training with us? Or left to look for a deal elsewhere?

He's posted this on his twitter page: "its just gone through loan deal waiting on international clearance."

Think he played for Acci v Liverpool yesterday(behind closed doors game).
Played up front i think in a 1-1 draw.

anyone actually seen the lad play? whats the S.P. on him?

Whalley Red · 24-08-2011, 11:02

Looks like he'll be a Stanley player

We're certainly not short of strikers now!

An introduction to him here: Introducing Padraig Amond

Think it's exactly what it says on the tin, international clearance can take weeks depending on who you're dealing with

I think he played as a trialist against Stockport, can't remember much about him.

Your right Jeff,he did play against stockport.He was in midfield and looked a nice tidy footballer,but as we know,the pace and intensity goes up a notch when playing league games.
His position would probably be in the forward/midfield three,and i would be amased if we dont return to that formation,as it makes us a little more solid,and suits the playing squad we have at the moment.
I think key to a good season is getting/keeping Coid fit,he could give us the energy/goals Jimmy did,letting craney float like sean did and one other in the three.(hope young Gutherie now realises whats required of him and ups his game).
Possibly try young Wes in the three,as he seems to have a good football brain

Surely that's asking the impossible.

Has he been in any doubt about what's required of him? It's those who should be providing him with a service who need to up their game, especially "the floater".

Think Dan has said before it won't go on fishy site until official, on the assumption he is signing then it won't be official until clearance comes through.The Portugese won't rush anything

Bit harsh that Revived red!!,Craney has still got it in his locker to unlock defences and influence games,he just needs to get fitter and come out of his comfort zone,which older players tend to operate in.
He performs better at present coming off the bench,which with his ability,in unacceptable really.
Regarding young Gutherie,I meant he probably hasnt played a lone striker role before,so needs to learn pretty quickly as i would imagine we will revert back to this style of play

In that case, he needs to beef up. Can't the club find a local butcher to sponsor him with a weekly supply of sirloin steaks?
