That would be a good signing for Stockport

Just released I put it in the wrong forum.

But while you’re here - beat position? Strengths and weaknesses!

 

[MatthewArgyle]

We played him as centre midfielder and he scored goals when he was with us don't think he has a weakness but he had an ankle injury with Bolton the other day.

 

[MatthewArgyle]

Forgot to put he will give your team passion and he won the Player of the Season award before he left the club

 

[Boletus Edulis]

Sarce runs north/south, so very direct. Reasonably good shot, though not Tuesday night when he really should have made Cooper work harder. Very passionate with us.

 

[Fedora Dale]

If I had the choice of Sarcevic or Rooney I'd choose...

... Denis Politic.

Younger and better than the other two.

Agree 100% I Dont think Evatt knows just how good a player he has got with Politic.......Out the whole of last season with a bad injury, Farmed out to Vale to get his fitness back. Would have just loaned him until Christmas then have him welcomed back in the first team squad. Contract on the table here for him but he is not signing it on those terms thats obvious. Will lose him next summer for nothing.

Politic is the Romanian Ronaldo

 

[shoddycollins]

Having a rethink............Quigley and Rooney are decent and are Evatt ex signings players
The pair of em and 500k you can have Sarcevic and Doyle

If there's anything in this then Stockport can sign players off you because they aren't affected the transfer window but you can't sign players off them.

Doubt theres anything in Sarcevic going.....Evatt did not make him captain for nothing
Yet money talks......so you never know
Doubt the 2 i mentioned would get into a lge 1 team

 

[MatthewArgyle]

It's now confirmed that Sarcevic is going to sign for Stockport County.

 

[Chris FGR]

Proper arms race between Stockport and Wrexham down in the pub League it seems. Is it right that Wrexham have a transfer window and Stockport don’t?

It is. Stockport have a shit manager, though, but seem weirdly determined that he’s going to succeed and are just signing more and more expensive players for him.

It's true and a pure showing of the tinpottery that exists down there.

It's the FAW who set the transfer windows for Welsh clubs, even those playing in English leagues; I don't think they have a good relationship with said clubs though. I don't think they care all that much that it means Welsh clubs are placed at a disadvantage because in their ideal scenario Wrexham would fall in line with other Welsh clubs and join the League of Wales.

Stunned about Sarcevic. Must have been a fall out behind the scenes. I know he’s had a lot of crap from the fans which may have taken its toll but I find it a bit bizarre. On his day he is brilliant but for a lot of fans Sheehan and Lee are both better players. I always felt Sarc is someone that makes people better around him. He runs for 90 mins and everyone follows that lead. He’ll be a ridiculous player for the national league. He was one of our higher earners so will free up funds for a free or January.

 

[Stocky]

Is this Sarcevic injured atm? Saw someone mention that?

 

[stevowanderer]

He played on Tuesday. Papers have just said he had a row with Evatt after being dropped and both he and Evatt have said there is no chance of reconciliation.

He’ll be incredible in the national league. He’s a top end league 2 player/avg league 1 player easily.

This literally never happens. I don’t know why, but it just doesn’t. The only incredible players in this league are signed from Blyth Spartans or Stafford Rangers or someone, them’s the rules.

 

[stevowanderer]

I think 3 and a half year deal may have something to do with it too. He was out of contract with us at end of season. We are looking seriously light squad wise now

It adds a bit more spice to our cup tie in a couple of weeks.

Some talk you might want John Rooney off us in January, he played under Evatt at Barrow.

My opinion is Rooney wouldn't even be good enough for League Two and I think his place may come under scrutiny for our current 11 particularly if we get Sarcevic. So if I were Bolton, I don't think it's what you should be after if you want to push for the Championship.

Yeah I can’t see that happening to be honest. We have a lot of loan spaces free still. I think we will end up with 2/3 quality loans in January and maybe the odd player we can pick up for no transfer fee. I don’t think we are in a position to be paying transfer fees again yet

Some rumours flying about that you might be getting Doyle too today..!!??? What the hell has happened. Must be a massive fall out

Quigley is on £9k a week at Stockport, so Sarcevic must be on at least double that. Insane money for non-league.

£9k a week? You sure, that sounds insane. Matt’s ‘only’ on £1100 a week apparently, and that’s pretty good wages by League 2 standards let alone non league.

I imagine £1100 isn’t too far from the median nowadays.

It's a running joke on the National League section about how much Quigley is on at ours and how much Mullin is on at Wrexham. The figure goes up with every post. With regards to Quigley, it's more than he was on at Barrow but not signficantly so.

There is a long running joke in the NL section (some of us still frequent there).

But yes, The Athletic claims there's a conference player on £9k a week.

 

[stevowanderer]

Confirmed now about Sarcevic. Santos has been given the captaincy … Doyle was vice captain so I’m still pretty sure Doyle has gone too.

 

[Devon_Lad]

Are Bolton in financial trouble (again)? I haven't been paying much attention but seems strange Doyle and Sarce are leaving in October?

Then again, it was a free transfer..
