Now it's into January time to bring this thread back!

https://twitter.com/JonPalmerSport/status/1345675398764498947?s=20 He would be a very useful addition to the team and I believe C********m are looking at moving him on. They also seem keen to move on Ruben Reid who would be a fantastic signing if we could tempt him.

Another player who along with Reid has had alot of clubs in a relatively short playing career - doesn’t sit well with me.

More of a worry is someone posting on Palmers twitter account that Daly may be going to Barnet?, that would be a disaster but he has played under Flowers so may have some truth. Daly has been immense this season.
We can only hope given how all clubs are cash strapped that some budget will be going to rebuild and we can finish in play offs at least.
All above rumours I know but we do need replacements ASAP.

Thats 1 player probably that you can’t replace, Flowers feeling sore that he got rejected by us and trying to get his revenge?


RE: Transfer rumours - Alex Petheram - 03-01-2021

Liam is committed and wants a new deal at the club. Alex does want to leave.

The issue we've got at the club now, is one we've not had before ... when you're at the bottom, clubs in truth don't want your players and no one really cares ... and attracting players in is hard, so you need to over pay or gamble on lower leagues ... When you're top, other club will want your players to better themselves ... yes players are in contract but they only protect the player ... fake an injury for example and the club can't do anything ... if we wanted a player out, the contract will defend them ... if they want to go ... they can cause issues and fake injury, we cannot do a lot .... you can't fine someone for being injured .. bigger clubs can afford to sit them at home and just pay them ... we need everyone pulling together. If you're here it's because you want to try and make history ... if you don't want to be here ... don't let the door hit you on the arse on the way out.

PG is very calm, he won't knee jerk about anything ... he's very reassuring ... not like any manager I've worked with before ... he will only bring in players that will make us better ... he'd rather work with what we've got then gamble ... he's 100% the right man for us. Like i've said before ... he's got a budget to bring in players, but we only wants to bring in players to better us.

Well there you are - ( Alex P not AW excuse the phrase) straight from the horse’s mouth. Don’t panic don’t panic ...


RE: Transfer rumours - Severnside - 03-01-2021

Thanks AP honest as ever.
Great about Liam he is the leader on the pitch we need.
We do trust in PG but after years of struggles sometimes as supporters of this great club we can get impatient and want to keep being at this end of the table!!!


RE: Transfer rumours - Alex Petheram - 03-01-2021

My statement is simple ... we need to remember that we're at the start of our journey ... when I joined we wanted to do one thing ... get home ... me being me wanted to push and push ... BUT I will not put us in financial issues ... so in these uncertain times ... keep in mind we've zero money from the NL, lottery or FA for January, February, March etc etc yet ... and still no fans ... so yes .... we all want to be impatient, keep us at the top of the table etc ... but we need to remember we are little old Gloucester, it's Rugby City i'm told and we're the smallest of the three Gloucestershire main football clubs still .... with shipping containers ... we're being shot at by everyone at the moment and that's a mark of us progressing, it's just like when Soldi went from 10 staff to 100 then to 250 now to 500 ... going from £100k to £100m ... when tides change people take note ... sometimes to criticise, get self gain or just to try and stop us ... But we smash down the walls and barriers ... moving forward.

What's happened at the club of late is 100% the best thing for the club ... we stick together and dream the impossible into reality ... if we finish above 17th we've progressed and moved forward during my time at the club ...

Hallelujah. The voice of common sense and, at least so far as our leadership is concerned, common purpose.
