Johnny Byrom Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 I understand that the Whites have agreed a deal with Crewe for their want-away striker Max Clayton. Was wondering if anyone knew much about the lad apart from: He is 20 years old; He has represented England from the U16s upwards. His middle name is James Lets hope Dougie puts him straight in, Rather than a dozen games in the Development squad. Quote

RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 Will probably be out on loan in January... Quote
Lesbian Keith Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 I think Clayton will be a good signing for this league, struggle to understand why C.Davies was dropped after winning player of the month. Him and Davies could work well I feel. Not prolific at Crewe but he is still developing and could become useful for last bit of season Quote
waffer cup 07 Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Will he be able to get on the end of a 60yard aerial bombardment from the defence and score 30 goals this season. Edited September 14, 2014 by waffer cup 07 Quote
jules_darby Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 Let's give the lad a chance. One assumes that is aimed where it should be; at Dougie the clown, and not at the support Quote
Juan.Kerr Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Let's give the lad a chance. Tell that to Dougie. Sorry, just seen the above. Edited September 14, 2014 by Juan.Kerr Quote
burnden Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 scored 9 goals in 74 games in league 2 and league 1 Quote
burnden Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 Crewe paper saying 300k compensation , substantial add ons for appearances and a sell on clause. Quote
Guest Blixa Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 scored 9 goals in 74 games in league 2 and league 1 The Juke scored 12 in 65 for Boro and he is allegedly the greatest striker we've ever had. Or something. And he's got more years on the clock. Quote
kent_white Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 Supposed to be decent. Lots of big clubs sniffing around him. I'm more than happy if it comes off.. Quote
ianofcleveleys Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Potentially a good investment that, if handled right, could end up making us good money in the future. Would be great if he turned into a real talent for us, our own Jordan Rhodes maybe, though whether he'll be handled right by the current regime is another matter and can't see him being the swift answer to our really pressing goalscoring problems Edited September 14, 2014 by ianofrochdale Quote
jules_darby Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 but can he play right back ?We had a right back last season that was stitched up by playing left back And a left back he likes to stitch up this season by playing right back And 2 young right backs...errm..somewhere ???????????? nice one Douglas Quote
nantwichwhite Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 I know lots of Crewe fans and they all think the Championship is a big step up for him. If he is one for the future we need someone right now. Also, will he just be another player in the way of Wilkinson, Clough, Illiev and Thomas. Although he might be considered a better prospect than these, time will tell I suppose. Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) We had a right back last season that was stitched up by playing left back And a left back he likes to stitch up this season by playing right back And 2 young right backs...errm..somewhere ???????????? nice one Douglas Don't forget the right winger played on the left and the willow the wisp striker asked to play up top on his own against 2 bruisers yesterday. Edited September 14, 2014 by Mounts Kipper Quote
jagermoot Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 He will end up in the development squad until we all forget about him and then when he leaves on a free, we will all wonder what happened to him just as he scores 3 on his debut for his new club and becomes the other clubs top goal scorer.

scallywell Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Have we still got the crackpot jock who twatted someone is it Frazer Quote
birch-chorley Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Another one for dougie's deadwood list? Quote
tarian1979 Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 'our own Jordan Rhodes'. Ha. I don't think 9 in 74 in league one is anywhere near Rhodes huddersfield goals in league one. Quote
tomski Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Have we still got the crackpot jock who twatted someone is it FrazerNo went to Partick last season. Quote
Guest Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Have we still got the crackpot jock Yes, he refuses to go Quote
Ratwhite Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Well considering that Crewe ripped us a new arsehole (possession/passion/determination levels), and he is/was one of their leading lights, I'd have him all day long.. That is all Quote
Ratwhite Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 'our own Jordan Rhodes'. Ha. I don't think 9 in 74 in league one is anywhere near Rhodes huddersfield goals in league one. They've all got to start somewhere....... Lets give the lad a chance. Quote
