Site Supporter barryk32 Posted June 17, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted June 17, 2021 We sign a player and the first I hear of it is when hes announced on the official Facebook page. God I need this site back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanu Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Argyle fans saying slow as fuck but a very good one on one defender. He was part of a back three last season that shipped 80 goals which is absolutely shocking but was let down by a few inexperienced centre backs next to him apparently. The way I look at is he's probably 4th choice & his resume looks pretty good for a supposed backup CB whilst also being at a good age where he should be coming into his best years. He's labelled 5'10 which is on the shorter side for a CB but he looks to have a few goals in him from set pieces which is a much needed dimension in which we need to add this upcoming season. Like others in our squad he's had three promotions with Blackpool, Bury & Plymouth for L2 so should has some winning mentality. On top of it I cant see how he could be worse than Delaney in our system & style of play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passmosster Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I remember his Grandad Paul Aimsom who was a useful lower divisions goalscorer with Bury and York City among other teams. Paul Aimson's parents ran a corner shop in Macclesfield and Paul sometimes worked behind the counter and you could have a football chat with him Those were the days..

Pratley had a goal in him as you say but I expected a few more than his 12 in all the time he was here. Good engine, covered most of the pitch in most games. Williams doesn't threaten the opposition box, much more defensive minded but far better at winning possession, DP gave away too many free kicks and fell over a lot. Williams far more consistent at keeping possession, and a better range of passing too. Neither tick enough boxes to be championship standard for me, but more than happy with either in league one. Pratley joined us after being Swansea’s key man in their promotion season from the Championship and he was our best player in the Championship in our first year back down. So at more than one point he was plenty good enough at that level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So at more than one point he was plenty good enough at that level I could be wrong but I thought he was being edged out at Swansea, on the bench for the play off final, they had the likes of Leon Brittan, Joe Allen, Nathan Dyer, Scott Sinclair (and Dobbie!). Either way I was expecting more goals than he delivered. I thought Chris Eagles was our best player in that championship season followed by Spearing and Alonso but its just opinions, I've nothing against an honest player like Pratley, just thought he was limited but he's not on his own there.

SirNatsDog Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Glad to see the sites back up but why can’t you look at previous pages, or am I doing something wrong? On Aimson, could IE have signed him with defensive midfield in mind as I understand he has played there before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Feelgood Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Arthur has signed for Morecambe. I feel less unpleasant toward them now Adams has moved. Well ... a bit. I'm certainly pleased Arthur has found employment. Always nothing less than an honest, hard working player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn’t edged out due to performances; he’d refused to sign a new contract, til then he was arguably their best player - certainly key And he was admittedly limited, but folk forget all the good he did. Same was happening with Muamba til the incident in all honesty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Coyle treated him disgracefully as a player. His substitutions, often prempting a game turning negatively, or benching him after good performances were lunacy. I've wondered sometimes if fitness & energy levels dropped in the lad & were a sign of issues to come but I'm blessing Coyle with more nouse than he was capable of. Despite St. Owen getting a lot of plaudits after the medical emergency, Muamba had come to seriously dislike the man and in his book says he was going to leave if Coyle continued to mess him about.
