Steven Watt

A good source from Chelsea told me that we are getting a 20year old defender from them called Steven Watt. He is 6'3" and a current Scottish U21 - also apparently "class".

Dont know if it's a loan deal or complete bullsh*t - but I haven't seen any more interesting rumours recently.
 

Steven Watt

Looks like he was released by Chelsea in May.
 

Steven Watt

he's not going to get a game there ahead of terry/gallas/carvalho/huth though is he.

skulason didnt consider it too much of a step down

No he wasn't. Check your facts, ****.
 

Steven Watt

if there is a problem with Sammy then of course we need someone on loan. This Scottish minger may fit the bill.
 

Steven Watt

I hope we do get him...he sounds pretty good!

By what he is saying in the above interview it sounds like the sort of move he'd be keen on ....a loan to a club still in London....perfect all round!

MA - do your magic!
 

Steven Watt

I believe he has signed an extended contract at Chelsea. From following his progress on the Chelsea website, he looks like a very good prospect.

Also, a number of players who are involved in pre-season matches for P/Ship teams end up out on loan - Dean Marney is a typical example, just gone to Norwich.

Hopefully we might get one for midfield - Pratley or Timlin from Fulham? Yeates from Spurs?
 

Steven Watt

Hmmm.

Could it be less that there's a problem with Sam than that MA is chewing over whether Mr Sodje could cover in midfield for the moment?
 

Steven Watt

whatever is going on if we can get this fella and Pratley on a year long loan before Saturday...I would be super confident that we can go all the way this season

The link to the Scottish Herald suggests that Watt could play defensive midfield as well. Anyway, as I said at the start, this could prove to be BullS***

Or play Sodje at RB as O'connor may be needed in midfield and Dobson will cover all positions across the back and central midfield as required. :idea:

Be nice to have some attacking midfielders too !
 

Steven Watt

I see your point: So when we lump it over the top, Owusu can hopefully head it back to a 'midfielder' to shoot.

next thing you know he is signing full time at Swansea....

Gotta wonder if the original rumour had any truth to it...seems we are not taking full advantage of the Chelsea situation as many pretty good youngsters are leaving now...and seemingly they are prepared to play at our level!!

However a centre half was not a priority, we may need cover in that position, but Watt would expect to be playing.

As far as cover is concerned, I notice that Joe Dolan has just signed from Orient. I seem to recall him being a big, hard, lump of a defender at Millwall but I know he's had his injury worries. Perhaps he was worth a trial?

Do you think we can afford to employ all Chelski's cast-offs?

In all fairness, Swansea can aford to pay a lot more than us.

They were prepared to break their record transfer fee paid to land someone up front regardless of whether Trundle leaves or not, and if they are goiing pay out that sort of money the wages will need to be attractive as well.

Our priority would not have been an expensive reserve centre half but more likely a quality midfielder or forward and it's boring but there aren't many out there and they certainly ain't cheap.

We still ahve to cut our cloth accordingly, hope that MA continues to unearth the odd gem like Sam, Turner and DJ and then keep everything crossed that stay fit and don't het too many bookings.

lucky sods with the money put in a bid of 300,000 for rory fallon
 

Steven Watt

Been offered a free by Swansea.
Not quite the success story we were led to believe as he struggled at Barnsley and now in Taffyland.

Danny Hollands struggles for a game at Bournemouth and Sam Tillen has turned poo.
Chelsea rejects!!;)

I'd give him a trial. We'll have to tell that Fitz bloke to **** off first though.
 

Steven Watt

Decent player but massively injury prone and is as mobile as Heywood.

The right player available at the wrong time - we just do not need another centre half
