Our chairman has started following Palmer and Morton on twitter, finally happening?

Please, if only to stop some of our fans who still believe that we'll have Morton back again...

 

[Davidimp]

Our mystery man trialist as signed this morning on a one year deal, Welcome Remy Howarth.

Maybe going to drip feed signings during the day.

We've been rumoured to be signing the pair of them for at least a month.

We've raided WBA u23s quite a lot since Appleton arrived, surprised we haven't got a few more from his old clubs.

 

[MatthewArgyle]

We're set to sign Jack Ruddy ex Wolves and Bury keeper as backup to Michael Cooper as Luke McCormick is out injured.

We've raided WBA u23s quite a lot since Appleton arrived, surprised we haven't got a few more from his old clubs.

Have we? I can only think of Melbourne, but he was a Cowley signing (albeit on loan initially) before Appleton signed him permanently.

 

[Crewelad87]

Weve resigned Luke Murphy after selling him to Leeds for a million 7 years ago. A good signing for us who will add some experience to our midfield.

 

[gijsbert_bos]

Of course he hasn’t, it’s aiming to go in the Guinness Book of records for the longest rumour in history (along with Morton).

Oh god, I hope it's not going to be another Akinola. Luke Imp have you had your shirt printed yet?

 

[gijsbert_bos]

No, it's Alex Woodyard. Pigott is 26. Ollie Palmer is the oldest probable starter at 28 but not fit yet. Staying up will do me, but without getting carried away and looking at the other squads around we may even reach the dizzy heights of lower mid table this year.

Is Palmer carrying a bit of timber?

 

[Luke Imp]

I wore it when we signed the youth lad Tim Akinola, who bizarrely left us for Huddersfield, got released, and has ended up at Arsenal I think!

Cunning if a bit extreme of you to get the Cowleys to sign another lad called Akinola just to spare your blushes. And yeah, a bizarre career trajectory.

 

[Davidimp]

Thought Ethan Ross had links to WBA too? I know he was at Colchester befpre we signed him and wondered if Appleton had spoken to people in the u23 set up there prior to us getting him here?

 

[Luke Imp]

Yep, just checked, I thought Ross came through Colchester's youth system.

 

[Indian Dan]

Brett Pitman imminent!

 

[Fedora Dale]

Brett Pitman imminent!

Brilliant. Guess who is going to score the winning goal in the opening league game...

(Always scores against Rochdale)

Weve resigned Luke Murphy after selling him to Leeds for a million 7 years ago. A good signing for us who will add some experience to our midfield.

Very happy with Murphy returning, midfield three of Wintle, Lowery and Murphy looks very good for L1.

Happy he's signed a 2-year deal, was afraid Dave was going to price himself out of the deal by only offering a one year contract. Bolton fans what was he like for you last season?

Also heard we had Alex Bruce on trail in our last pre-season game, any more news on him signing? Surly it's got to be the end for Lancashire if he does sign.

 

[Deepcut Cobbler]

We generally have the feeling that we haven't done much or enough and the start of the League season is getting ever closer but reading you lot on here, it appears that we all have similar concerns for our respective clubs?

Shocking player....Was a £1m player at one stage....Some clubs suit a player maybe he suits crewe

Most agree that we’ve upgraded on the players that have left. Smith J is definitely better than Isgrove. Jack Payne looks better than Keshi Anderson. Brett Pitman is a bit of an unknown quantity when it comes to replacing Doyle, but he has a better goals to games ratio at a higher level than L2. Smith T. is probably our Yates replacement and again not seen enough to be sure, but he looks more than adequate.

The new keeper will have to go some to better Benda, though.

The defence is pretty much as you were with, again, Grant and Doughty protecting them.

We’ll be more than fine.

Not sure Messi would look good playing for your lot over the past 2 seasons.

 

[Guernica]

Morton and Palmer confirmed on season long loans from WBA, much needed additions. We may have 1 fit centre half but have 2 GK's and 2 Strikers - Huzzah!

He was awful last season....Bridcutt and Crawford excellent when they played

 

[Indian Dan]

Brett Pitman imminent!

Confirmed!

 

[gijsbert_bos]

Please, if only to stop some of our fans who still believe that we'll have Morton back again...

Now both confirmed on season-long loans.

 

[masi51]

Confirmed!

same age as doyle?

 

[Agombar stool]

An upgrade on Doyle in my opinion. Reckon Pitman is going to thrive in a Wellens team!

And a 1 year deal. That’s good given his age.

Two stone overweight, be reet for christmas

He just needs to hang around in the box. He’ll be ‘reet’

 

[Third Team Lucky]

Lasse Sorenson in on loan from Stoke. Apparently we've been tracking him for a while and is the replacement for Alex Gilbey.

We'll see
