Re: Summer 2020 transfers
Bit of a shrewd move to unveil the marquee Delfounso signing so soon after the Jak Hickman announcement... young Jak seems to have gotten away with it!!

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
Bap is back (or bread cake if you prefer).
Decent signing at this level surely?? And nice to get some experience on board...and finally kudos for DSB for calling this one way back when!

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
Baptiste is back! Brockers will definitely be going on loan now I reckon.
Age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill!

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
He adds versatility can play CB or RB/LB in a back four which we might not play much but might sometimes. I think it’s shrewd. Experienced and knows Evatt. Have to say the club have absolutely excelled this summer. Getting a new management team squad together with more than a month to go and absolutely no fuss. The days of managers being unhappy with recruitment etc and stuff dragging on to the last week or so seem to be behind us.
Plenty of time for them to bond and work on shape. One more striker maybe and another midfield player maybe. But we can wait and be picky.

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
Need another left wingback, preferably experienced, and looky here - Callum McFadzean, promoted with Bury and Plymouth, has now left the latter because he wants to move back north.

He’s been linked with Donny and Salford but considering his mate Sarce is here and we’ll be playing a back three like Lowe, I imagine we just be trying to tempt him.
Oh and he also played on loan in this division in 2013/14 with another team destined for promotion. Chesterfield. With Doyle up top and Evatt at the back.

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
I think he'll play in the middle of the three (competing with Delaney?). Two big lads with pace either side who want to step out into midfield and get us on the front foot. More experienced head directing things from the middle.

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
Agree. Perhaps also spotting a longer ping. Evatt won’t want pointless tiki-taka: if an accurate ball to a player in space is available, he’ll want it taken.
Re: Summer 2020 transfers
Do you think we may have got wind that players signed before the salary cap is officially announced won't fully count against it? I'd be quite surprised if we've managed to squeeze all these in for below £1.5m p.a.BWFC_Insane wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 12:38 pmHe adds versatility can play CB or RB/LB in a back four which we might not play much but might sometimes.

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
I would say that this is extremely likely given the EFL just confirmed the allowance for contracts signed before today.The_Gun wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 1:47 pmDo you think we may have got wind that players signed before the salary cap is officially announced won't fully count against it?

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
I'm sure that plays a part - but not furloughing Phoenix (for all the flak they took) looks like a genius move. I'm sure he lined much of this up in that period - and I'm sure he and Evatt were planning before Evatt was announced as manager....The_Gun wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 1:51 pmI would say that this is extremely likely given the EFL just confirmed the allowance for contracts signed before today.The_Gun wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 1:47 pmDo you think we may have got wind that players signed before the salary cap is officially announced won't fully count against it?

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
Lets hope you are correct. I know virtually nothing about the new players coming in except what can be found on YouTube and Wiki. I think us Bolton fans could do with a bit of excitement and entertainment after years of dross.BWFC_Insane wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 2:11 pmI'm sure that plays a part - but not furloughing Phoenix (for all the flak they took) looks like a genius move.

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
I'm not saying they are going to be amazing - as much in the dark about most of these as you are. But the plan feels solid - like we're recruiting to a system and style with a manager who knows what he wants. We've had most of them training with us before they signed and the group will get a full pre season. It may still be a disaster but it just feels like we might be on the right track....malcd1 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 2:56 pmLets hope you are correct.

Re: Summer 2020 transfers
I suppose the downside to all this activity is that when the transfer window is slamming shut as it inevitably does we will all be tucked up in bed as the quota of signings will have been reached many days previous.

It's probably not worth the watch tbf. Young footballer, too rich too soon, makes c*nt of himself.
Imagine Alan Stubbs if he was off his tits and, you know, hadn't done anything in the game yet.
But I mean he's still a kid even now. Clean slate for me.
