Was told a few weeks back that Cory Hall from Rovers would be joining on loan after the derby, whether that will actually happens or not we shall find out shortly.

Would be disappointed if we did that personally. Hall has potential but from what I've seen doesn't physically look ready for SL. And if that's the case then we should be playing our own players who have potential, not blooding Rovers' players for them.
Bullock and Russell were the perfect loan signings. Both have a lot of experience and trying to play their way back into form who both added some solidity and reliability to our team. Hall is a relatively inexperienced kid with less than 50 games under his belt who I don't think would really improve us.
If it was with a chance to then sign him long term it could be worthwhile, but I would disagree with just a short term loan move.
Obviouls nothing concrete at the moment anyway so will wait and see how it plays out.

A player who has worked under Smith and not playing at Wire is Ratchford…worth a cheeky inquiry?….good pro…goal kicker and can cover fb/centre/stand off.

Re: Huddersfield (H) : Wed Apr 03, 2024 11:35 am  

Season over, I'd make any signing one that could be looked at as long term.

Hall is better than what we have, does a good job at centre or backrow

Ratchford, no thanks.

C Hall named in their 21 man squad so we can probably rule that one out

You really are an angry man, why get so defensive just because someone gives an opinion. You need to relax a bit.

I'd rather play Charles and Smith, I think its better for us long term, just my opinion before you get all defensive.

I'm not sure you understand what the word opinion means.

Not for me, is an opinion isn't it?

I also justified my reason for my opinion by giving the reason that I'd like any new signing to be a possible long term one.

Not sure what else you want.

You think it would be a good signing I don't, not sure why you ate getting so touchy about it.

Re: Huddersfield (H) : Wed Apr 03, 2024 1:37 pm  

The only silver lining to this season is the opportunity to get some youth out there and gift them experience.

All I need to see is signs they will be good enough. It's a step up, so they'll do things well and some things terribly, but having a season that is literally a write off means they can get a string of games, experience and we can get a good look.

Would hate to see any rash signings on more then a this season basis as we will perpetuate our existing problem.

Ratchford - no. Blocks the path and opportunity for Charles.

Hall - if just for this season, why not.

Re: Huddersfield (H) : Wed Apr 03, 2024 1:59 pm  

Staverley out for the season, 9 months out, absolutely gutting.

Hope we announce a new deal for him soon.

Ashworth out for about 6 weeks, Houghton out this week.

Cator and Tindall back.

If we play Cator as a hooker I'll cry.
