Scott McGleish

Old, crap and put on the list by The Cobblers who are in turmoil. They have been bankrolled by a couple of brothers who can't get planning permission on the ground and want out. They have slapped their 3 big earners on the list and Scot, who gets 20 goals a season, is one of them.

A cheeky loan bid?
Somehow this bloke always gets goals.

Perhaps with the money that we have saved in appointing SF, this could be a viable option :idea::sorted:
Although we could extend the loan period of the very tall chap from Swindon ( I still don't know his name), and pay Patrick more money to sit on the bench with his lardy (lazy) arse.
No doubt Brentford Football Club will do what is right.

:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

too short!
 

Scott McGleish

Somehow he always seems to score - he just has the knack, He is also good in the air for his size.

I hope that Kuffour will end up as our second striker alongside either Owusu or a new loanee so McGleish would therefore be a low priority.
 

Scott McGleish

McGleish would have been at Col U with Fitz. James Quinn is also on the list at Northampton.

too short!


Won all the balls in the air against us. I'm not saying that is hard but he lets defenders know he is about, a skilll that has been lacking in our side.

Kirk is complete tosh and mean't tio be on 4k a week.
 

Scott McGleish

How on earth can Northampton justify £4k a week wages. :scratch:

They have had the Cardozza brothers funding them whilst atempting to expand the ground. Pree reports suggest they lose a million squid a year.
Gabbiadini was on 4k a week for a few years not so long ago and Martin Smith was not far behind until they freed him to Darlington this summer.
No planning consent and the big chiefs are reigning things back in.

He can't have been on anywhere near that much at Boston, it was a transfer window deal wasn't it?

It was indeed in our Burton/Hargreaves year. This is from memory and I sure I will be geeked out on this.;)

Boston were splashing it around as well I seem to recall.
 

Scott McGleish

Think they paid £400,000 for Kirk didnt they ?

Northampton also rejected a six figure sum for defender Adam Chambers !

Just been put on the transfer list by Wycombe. Does score goals, 26 last year for Wycombe and I think 3 this year. Not sure Wycombe would consider an offer from us though even if we were interested.

I would.
 

Scott McGleish

He must be older than Andy Scott!
 

Scott McGleish

why has he been put on the transfer list? Is he down the pecking order, has he fallen out with Peter Taylor?

Body language was very poor when we played them and threw a wobbly when subbed. Not suprised hes on TL.

We don't want that cocky little dwarf anywhere near us, he's too old, too slow and he would upset the team spirit.
It's unbelievable to think Wycombe are ahead of us with players of the quality ( or lack of) like Mousino and Harrold. I don't see them as a top 3 team.

Taylor is no clown though :nono::nono:Wycombe will be in the shake up come May

Martin Allen tried to sign him in his 2nd season in charge. McGleish was not impressed with Allen, mainly because MA tried to get SMc to sign on with an agent mate of his
 

Scott McGleish

I'd have him like a shot, scored 26 (?) league goals last season and would provide MacDonald with some competition. However probably on too much money to be a reserve.

Provide MacDonald with some competiton ????????...have you been to any Brentford matches this season ?:nono:

I understand that MacDonald has been doing very well this season, scored 6 already (thats nearly half of what our top scorer got last season).

But I think someone on his heels will keep him in better form. Peterborough had 4-5 strikers last season that, when one wasn't scoring, on form, another came in and done the job.
In MacDonalds position, we don't really have the luxury in the shape of someone taking the MacDonald role and giving him the rest he may need.

He will tire at one stage this season and want a proven striker to step in when this happens, not a rookie.
 

Scott McGleish

He may be getting on a bit but a 1 year contract for a proven goalscorer might not be a bad thing after all. What are we going to do this Saturday with Elder suspended? Put Moses on who has hardly been allowed to kick a ball this season??????????We need a bit more choice up front to substantiate where we already are and McGleish would be ideal for it.

Please tell me who else is providing competition to MacDonald, Ademola who has played about 25 mins in total in the league or Montegue who is currently on loan :rolleyes: McGleish is a proven goalscorer in this league and would be a great squad addition IMHO

I agree we need another striker but not him, I just don't see AS wanting him and I don't think he'll want to come and keep our bench warm, I think that's why he had his " discussion" with Peter Taylor. I expect he's uphappy that Matt Harrold is now ahead of him, and you can't blame him for that !!
 

Scott McGleish

They are good goal stats,I can only assume hes fallen out with Taylor,which is quite easy to do.Hes gone to a team in a higher league too.AS hasnt done bad so far but with Elder suspended Sat our options are limited.Mac/Williams didnt work,Moses imho has been used suprisingly rarely,actually almost never,time for AS to bring in one of the loan strikers hes got lined up:sorted:

really?????????????????????????????????????????
 

Scott McGleish

Monty's doing well at Basingstoke and needs to continue at that level for them. When he comes back, he should be in much better form than he was for us at Luton in the JPT.

I want to see Scotty use him contacts to bring in a Championship level striker fed up with sitting on the bench on a short term loan. Either than or sign up one of these strikers supposedly training with us. Get Ide back for one match whilst Elder's suspended if you must lol
 

Scott McGleish

Oh, if only we had McGleish at this point of the season, who knows what we could be doing at the top of L2!!!!!!!
