Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Got a funny feeling that our next captain is already here. Forino. I'm not saying that your wrong, and its only my personal opinion but I really hope he's not. 1. I'm not totally convinced by him as a player never mind a captain. 2. I think that we need someone a little more vocal & can lead by exa...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Thomason inspires a (to me) truly surprising level of hatred from some of our fans. BWFCi's right that everyone has a price and you can't dictate demand, but I would have thought he's one of Schuey's preferred players. He works hard, which is clearly a non-negotiable. He's been happy to adapt to di...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

When the team was not doing well last season I'm sure the sentiment was along the lines of "sell everyone and start over". Now, we collectively don't want to sell Thomason. My question is how well did he do last season? Interesting on YouTube yesterday, going through some of the interviews from Mar...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Should clarify that I didn’t see us challenging for the top 2 in May and still don’t now. I suspect we are fighting for 6th-4th at best. Is there anything that could change your mind bwfci before the season kicks off? Probably not - always we have to hope but there are some strong sides again in th...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

I know the question was to BWFCI, but for what its worth IMO if we where to bring in a Liam Cooper type leader / captain and a proven goal scorer (i.e. a Jatta or a Michael Smith) and Kenny from Celtic I think that we could challenge for the top 2

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

IMO for us to seriously have a chance to challenge for promotion, these two strikers that SS says he still wants need to be proven & names that at least a few fans may of have previously heard of (apart from googling !) - players who we all go 'now then that's a good signing, he will score goals in...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

I meant to say I’d rather stick with what we have. Warm weather, beer and in-laws got in the way 😊 The article published this morning by Marc Iles, he sounds quite upbeat and I can’t remember him being this optimistic pre season , anyway 3 weeks today, can’t wait. I'm not sure exactly where this op...

Re: Schu me the way to Amarillo - Summer 2025 Transfer Thread

Looks like BWFCI was correct all along regarding Ceesay, if the latest interview with his agent doing the rounds is true. His agent saying that he (Ceesay) never wanted to join us & that basically it was his club pushing the deal. The Agent never asked for a large fee as Ceesay wasn't interested in ...

Nixon is linking us to a Swansea keeper. I’m not paying the sub to find out which one. Any guesses?
Some saying that its Nathan Broome - apparently he's in Marbella with the squad.

Never heard of the lad.

Rankin Costello would be great but I feel maybe out of our wage budget?
One or two saying that it may be Stockport that he's going to ?
Or Charlton apparently.

Re: Pre-season 2025

Amen, Pru. In my experience, fans of pretty much all clubs think their players get too many injuries, and fitness staff/training regimes often get blamed. So Dalby who has never had any hamstring issues in his career, gets a hamstring injury 2 days into pre season at Lostock - which I'm sure that S...

With Forrester being injured (again !), I suspect SS was thinking Toal, Forino, Taylor & probably Inwood as his 4 CB's - what that says about Johnston who knows - I do think that he sees Taylor as a CB, at least I hope so.
Could Johnston be on the way out?
Hopefully !

Dalby has never had a hamstring injury in his career, a couple of days into pre season with us and bang. I know it can happen anytime, but questions need to be asked about the BWFC training methods and intensity for 2 x players to get hamstring injuries a couple of days into pre season - surely the...
