kent_white Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 "Initial thoughts are that we've missed a massive opportunity there, would have loved to have seen him sign for us, though I did think Weds/Sunderland or a Championship club would get him. Gutted them lot have got him, but guess we need to reserve judgement till we see who signs for us as replacement" From the Wigan site. General concesus over there seems to be that obviously he would have wanted to stay with Wigan if he'd had the chance and that the new owners must have someone massive lined up ready to come in. They still haven't figured things out have they? 😁😁😁 Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Perhaps they're going to replace them all with the Bahrain national side. Tea towel f.c. Quote

Personally I wasn't creaming myself over the signings in January apart from Kieron Lee as I knew sweet fa about them, but the lads we brought in were excellent. We now know what a prospect Afolayan is & his signing was a great start to the window. Gethin Jones is a solid addition, as is Johnstone but it's the signing of Sheehan that sets the benchmark for me. With him, MJ Dapo & Sarcevic in midfield we are going to be a force next season. Can't wait to see who IE is going to bring in upfront as I reckon it's going to be another marquee signing. Quote
RoadRunnerFan Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 (edited) Yeah I know where you are coming from Ronnie feels good to be excited about signings and getting our business done early. To be fair we did Sarce & Doyle early last year with the wage cap but brought a mixed bag in after that. Trust Evatt enough to think that wont happen this year.

Burndens Bogs Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Can’t beat a bit if early business. Evatt knows exactly who he wants/needs. i’m happy to just trust his judgement and enjoy the ride.. we’ve got a proper club again and it feels great. Quote

Blondi Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Looking promising already in our recruitment drive, the hard part will be to sign a decent striker to push Doyle. Quote

RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Just looked, can't see it so just a rumour I guess. Quote

Steejay Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 We need loans out sorted out for Comley, Crawford, Gordon, Greenidge asap. These guys are just not going to be in the squad, so any announcement about their departures would be as good as any new signing. Quote

Comley Crawford and Gordon Greenidge should be opening the batting for West Indies. Quote
Zico Posted June 5, 2021 Posted June 5, 2021 Never heard of this George Johnston before Sounds like he's got a decent enough background Maybe a long term replacement for Baptiste And it's pissed off Wigan, for that reason alone it's a great signing Quote
Dr. Feelgood Posted June 5, 2021 Posted June 5, 2021 17 hours ago, Breightmet Boy said: George Johnston from Wigan, 22 year old defender just signed Former Liverpool Reserve captain, moved to Feyenord & joined on loan for Wigan's great escape last January (bastards). Played 22 times. A left sided centre-half but able to play across the back. Despite never having heard of him that's a decent pedigree for a 'one for the future'. I felt we needed a good, ready made centre half to join. I assume this guy fits that bill. Now get John signed. What then ? ... I still think Evatt has another 3 of 4 in mind. If Sheehan is the extra midfielder then a proper good striker to join Doyle. Tempting to say a trickster winger on the right but maybe Evatt sees Politic doing that. Not to mention a couple of high quality loans. Quote
