Is Hardie likely to be coming on loan or permanent?

I think it could be permanent as Wrexham are trying to off load a few players , Mullin off to Bradford.

Olaofe gone to Stockport on loan.

No issues with Morley going and wish him all the best.

He's been a brilliant signing for us and never really done much wrong - I think he needs to move on as much as we probably need him to.

He's absolutely nowhere near as bad as some on here would make out and has given us some fantastic moments (the goal away at Accy in the semi-final and the free-kick away at Charlton spring to mind).

No doubt he'll do well elsewhere, with some proper coaching and some consistency.

Good riddance the way he played on Tuesday was bloody awful.

Really surprised that Hardie is our number one target. Could be another month or so before hes anywhere near the first team. Then again, who is available?, and at what cost?

 

Strangely, considering the team gets leaked on here every week, the club have been pretty good at keeping transfer business under wraps. There was some talk of Apter but I hadn't heard Blackett-Taylor's name mentioned at all.

Not saying we aren't in for Hardie, I'm sure we are, but I expect we'll sign at least two players before the deadline and one will be someone not being talked about currently.

Nombe seems to have been priced out and nobody else of note has been mentioned, but I think we should be casting our net wider than we seem to be doing and going for a permanent deal for someone who can hack it in the Championship as that would be helpful in getting there and one less thing to worry about about if we do.

Out of curiousity......how wide have we cast our net? Or would i be safe to assume that like myself you have no idea?

He was already out the door tbf on Tuesday. Once you’ve checked out there’s no coming back. Which made his inclusion even weirder

That’s what I thought he offered nothing all the game which showed to me he had made his mind up to leave. 
Good luck to him .

He’d agreed terms last week. Just waiting for the clubs to agree payment structure 

a bit like when you’ve handed your notice in at work and they keep you until your final day on filing duty 🤣

I think the Morley fee is going to be close to a mil after some back and forth with Luton and Wycombe, hard to really feel anything other than happy with that deal.

Seems a nice lad and I thought we had something special that first full season, but he's just never kicked on unfortunately. Goes with my best.

Harsh.  Do we get rid of any player that has a bad game?  FWIW I thought he struggled to get involved in his correct position as there was an overload of players in centre mid (EE, Dempsey, McAtee coming deep) so he was sort of forced wide and its not his game. 

I've seen a few questioning having a go at him for that game, I'd say put yourself in his shoes if you know you're leaving in a few days.  They are human beings not machines, probably spent half the day wondering if he'd be playing or signing for Wycombe.  Been a great pro for us and is allowed a below par game, others have them and don't get told good riddance 2 days later.

This, hes a good player. Good luck to the lad.

So another Evatt player has been sent packing. That's about 15 at least out the door since SS took over. How many remain now besides Sheehan, Toal, Osei Tutu, Dempsey, Mcatee and Johnstone?

Good luck to Morley, but his hiding on Tuesday night was disappointing.

My opinion and I did post good luck to him.

That leaves just Toal, Sheehan and Demps of the Oxford Wembley squad. Johnston was injured. That’s a lot of players moved out in 20 months.

Not sad to see Morley go, good luck to him.  Did he sign Forino as well?  They are decent League 1 players but as for the Championship....

Confirmed Morley gone. Wycombe. Undisclosed. 

Said on Tuesday we would be getting him match fit same as Cogley with port vale game strange decision to play someone half way out the door who as not figured for a while

The team gets leaked by some dude that watches them train.

Anything board level is a closed shop and rightly so.

 

750k upfront rising to 1M ?

WANDERERS aim to use the cash generated by the sale of Aaron Morley to Wycombe for two more signings before the close of the transfer window.

You have absolutely no idea what the club are doing behind the scenes.

Some deal, that.

Think it’s a bit of a shame how it has worked out for Morley. Hit some seriously high levels, peaking around the Papa John’s win, but just stagnated after that. Probably an argument that Dempsey and Toal are in a similar boat.
