Johnnyrotten Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 With about 3 months of transfers to go, there are going to be some interesting moves in this strangest of years. A few have caught my eye in recent days, a few involving ex BW. Jake Turner, remember him? Gone to Morecambe on loan. Why is he not still here? Joe Riley left Bradford to replace our new right back at Carlisle. Bridcutt permanent move to Lincoln, he’s better than that. Away from BWFC, Kemar Roofe, ex Leeds, gone to Rangers. Richard Keogh, ex Derby, great signing for MK Dons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWFC_LOVE Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Turner caught my eye, will be interested in seeing him in comparison to Crellin. Different Joe Riley though. Our ex mon is at Mansfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkonion Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 (edited) I liked Bridcutt, 31 now though and had injuries. Maybe he had limited options but in any case Lincoln comfortably finished above the relegation zone in League One last season.

Eddie Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 1 hour ago, Rudy said: I liked Bridcutt, he looked a cut above shame about his injuries Must admit I’d have loved to see Bridcutt in the centre of this ‘new era’ Bolton team. He was a class above the rest of our team last season and genuinely looked too good for L1 when he was in form. Unfortunately he was surrounded by shit and then ridiculously (and the key decision that showed KH had no idea) played at centre back. I’m sure there’s reasons why we haven’t got him - the main one of which might just be that IE didn’t want him or he didn’t want to come - but he’s one player from our recent past that looked a genuine cut above the rest. I’ll be interested to see how he gets on this season at Lincoln, based on the Twitter comments (I know) they seem to be very happy to have him back!

Apparently he had a “miraculous” season with Chenayiin or whatever they are called, improved their league position and got to the cup final, that got him a move to a better club.

Enjoyed watching him play for us, not perfect but a great attacking attitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowball Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Bradford fan on their forum reckons if we had their four strikers we would be happier as they will score more than ours! For the record hes on about Vaughan (most think hes odds on to leave) Lee Novak, Billy Clarke and wait for it Clayton Donaldson! Reckons those four can fire them to promotion. TBF a fair few Bantams remain sceptical! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted August 8, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2020 Vaughan is comparable to Delfouneso, if we were being ultra tight on Faal and say he’s only as much use as Donaldson, that leaves Novak and Clarke or Doyle and Politic/Darcy. id rather have just 2 of ours than all 4 of theirs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did look quality at Bury a few years ago (and Huddersfield before that) but seems to have gone off the boil. Can’t really compare Fonz to him though, looking at Fonz’s stats he’s not a goal scorer, more comparable to Donaldson in being a support striker and not necessarily playing down the middle. Didn’t realise he’d played for Bury, Burnley and Blackburn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though this salary cap malarkey will make a mockery of buying out what is left on a player’s contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 Jacob Mellis gone to Gillingham, another that passed through this way briefly. Steve Evans is manager, had him at Mansfield, another "its who you know" transfer. Ben Pringle to Morecambe, this time last year wasn't he training with us and we were really hoping to sign him. Things have definitely moved on for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
