Marc505 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Great news that, well chuffed. And a very positive message to send to a new manager too, here's one of your main assets and he wont be leaving without a fight from us for a while.

I think Hill stays and he wouldn't have signed IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but I think the interest in him fizzled out due to the pandemic, if he'd continued as he was going until the end of the season maybe he would have had more options. Glad he's stayed though whatever his reasoning, we need to start getting value out of our players! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Aldo Raine Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 It's brilliant news. I though in all likelihood he'd move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think weve heard the last about Hill either from himself or from players' comments after June is up. Next up, manager, then an announcement about the club's direction and ST plans then a signing per day for a fortnight, cup run, promotion and chill.

Site Supporter desperado Posted June 15, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted June 15, 2020 Really great news. Another one of the young crop, arguably the one with most potential, signed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delaney ?? Looked him up & he played 4 games & scored 1, but i don't remember him at all. Was he any good ? & I thought Darcy might do a "Connell ", & i wonder if it's just a coincidence that he signs as soon as Hill goes, but great news whatever.

He's a bloody big bugger, not too bad on the ball but no one looked that great by the time he was in the team. I think he'll do well at L2 level.

Johnnyrotten Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 That's fantastic news. I rate him in the McAteer class in years to come. If he turns out to be only a 1st division version of McAteer that will be more than enough to be going on with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawford, Lowe, Zouma, Emmanuel, Remi just dont belong to us any more. Completely different to Darcy who's local and from the youth set up, and who the club know is a saleable asset in future. The others passed through and the new manager wont have a clue who most of them are. And out of those only Zouma is arguably a Div 2 player, the others will get Div 1.

Johnnyrotten Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Just on Faal, I hope he's brilliant for us, but I feel like he's not going to get a look in with the new manager. They have no excuse not to sign tried and tested Div 2 strikers, given that we are the big fish in that league. Which manager is going to put his reputation on the line using a player from the 7th tier in such a crucial position. Faal's best bet is to go to wherever Hill ends up, we might even get a small fee.

Johnnyrotten Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 You might be right there. I'd be amazed if he starts 5 games for us, in fact I'd be amazed if he starts a league game given the trend for playing 1 up front. These days a striker has to be a decent winger if he wants games (Dodoo, O'Grady the most recent examples) and that means tracking back and helping the full back, Faal isnt going to be given that role by a manager that's never heard of him.

He doesn't need to have heard of him. The new manager will see him day in, day out at training and will be able to suss out if he thinks he's good enough or not. Hill said he was miles away from being ready, but then again Hill was a cock who spouted all kinds of bullshit, therefore none of us have any idea if he's good enough or not yet.

radcliffe white Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Faal signed on an 18 month deal he could still play a big part, just because the trend is 1 upfront doesn’t mean that will continue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
