Would be a target man, cheap price, scores goals in the championship and a former player. Can’t see it being him... Warnock said the striker will be a loan. Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,401 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 A week left in the window. I can't see Fry playing on Wednesday, though he may be back for Norwich if there's no bone damage. I think the injury might well prevent Nathan Wood going out on loan, which is a shame for him. Link to post Share on other sites

Would have been crazy to send him out on loan without a replacement anyway. As yesterday showed, one injury to fry or McNair (historically injury prone) and were down to nothing it he isn't here.

SmogDane 4,052 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 When is Hall expected back in full training? We could certainly use another CB Link to post Share on other sites
GrimsbyBoro 1,959 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I think he is training already. Looking at the end of the month for first team. Think Warnock said the Norwich game. really low on numbers until then. I think our window now revolves around Fry. If he’s out for a long time we need someone who can come straight into the team. Can’t rely on Hall or Wood. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
edinboro 804 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 It seems most January windows end with Gibson having a call to make on what he wants to do. I hope we have a Jordon Rhodes/Ramirez week rather than a Gestede week. Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,246 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Chelsea have apparently sacked LAmpard. I would nok mind him here at the end of the season if Warnock decides to leave. Maybe come in during the autumn for a smoother transition. But he'll probably have bigger suitors. That said I reckon Gibson will be happy to give Warnock another year or two.

I don't even agree with the sacking and I imagine there are clubs around the Prem who will be questioning whether they could have it better with Frank or if the timing of it is lining up well with the way things are going. Bielsa's contract is up in the summer, Bruce seems to be on borrowed time at Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites

Think the fact he was in charge with all those top players flattered him. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think there's any chance of him dropping to the Championship, even if he has to wait a little longer for an opportunity. He's very highly regarded by people in high places. He'd be the perfect fit at West Ham, but Moyes is doing a good job so can't imagine them changing manager any time soon. Supposedly Hasenhüttl is of interest to Chelsea. If so Southampton could be a decent fit. (EDIT: Scrap this last bit. It's Tuchel who's got the job by the look of it). Link to post Share on other sites
Alves car salesman 152 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 He’s a victim like many Chelsea managers of the expensive signings not working out! This could be down to many factors but it’s a results driven game so makes sense for him to go. Lets hope we weren’t after any players from Chelsea as this may not happen now.

Redcar Rioja 5,872 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 If we are to be reliant on Grant Hall then I'm genuinely worried. I didn't rate him but figured he would bulk out the squad with some experience so fair enough. He looked very ring rusty at the start of the season but I hoped that with a few months under his belt he would settle in. Now another lengthy injury lay off and I can't see him returning to a standard that we immediately require. In time he may improve but there is always that risk of a Gestede moment just waiting to happen. If Dijksteel is out we need to switch Howson to RB and bring in an additional CB on loan if we can't buy. The Tav injury I'm guessing will mean some time out for him if it is as bad as it looked. If we go with Watmore on one side and Johnson on the other with Spence/Coulson as back ups we can muddle through if Tav isn't out for long but the thin veneer of the squad is very apparent. The obvious would be to use Roberts instead of Tav especially if we are playing Howson behind him but I think Tav's grandmother has a better chance of getting game time.
