Sam Parkin has signed for

[Beach Hut]

Time is running out to sign someone - Can you still bring players in on loan after window is shut?

Yes you can bring in loan players

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Thought that was the case.

Thought that was the case.

Have more faith in your beliefs then

FFS I am starting to get f***ed off there must be a target man somewhere we can sign. I am 6"3, I'll do it for £30,000 pa

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

I expect we will here the Withdean given as a reason again

We can't beat people on price and I guess the likelihood is that we miss out due to facilities and cost of living. It is not difficult to understand. We have no prowess in the transfer market.


Someone must have one rotting in the reserves that can do a job!! THere must be a cheap one going in Scotland.

FFS!! Jesus H Christ, this has got way beyond a joke now!

turienzo is the answer- simple

we let him go, now he has gone on to bigger and better things

Joking aside he has!

 

[portslade seagull]

we will not sign anybody..its just more bluster coming from the club to keep the fans interested...all we seem to do is lose players

 

[DTES]

Where does that leave us

With a team who are playing pretty well. 7 points from 4 - and that's only because we were narrowly beaten away at the League faourites.

Not too worried about missing out on Parkin, and/or Burgess.

So did we really have £350,000 available to sign him? The fee Luton have paid.
Or was it a case of we know he wont come here, but it makes for a little bit of reading for our fans!!

 

[Gritt23]

Parkin was never going to sign for us ever ever ever. Not sure why people even bothered thinking about it!

What he said!

Even with the most fragile hamstring in the soccer world.

This conspiracy theory that so many people buy into on here that we never seriously chase these targets, just put them out in the press to pacify fans.

How does that work then?

We miss another target that we have chased (for the umpteenth time) and the fans are pacified?

Really?

Don't you think that, on the contrary, fans are very frustrated at not landing targets?

So if it is some "cunning" PR spin by Dick Knight, it's not either a) very clever, or b) very effective

- is it?

Which is why I do actually think we are making genuine attempts to sign these players.

 

[Fred Oliver - Legend]

point.

 

[smudge]

Sam Parkin wasn't a big fan of us, ever since they were winning in the play off with seconds to go & saying to Adam Virgo, "I'll call you from Cardiff to tell you what it's like". (Or words to that effect).
Then Virgs pops that header in.

Marvellous scenes. f*** off Parkin.

Harding also kicked his front teeth out in this game. I reckon they are still buried somewhere towards the South Stand touchline near halfway.

I don't doubt we've enquired about all these players but they're all out of our reach anyway. Signing GNW on loan last season was the nearest we was going to get to signing one of them.

interview on Blackpool site does not actually name Burgess - says they have agreed a fee and terms re a player - but awaiting his release from current club
