Shamelessly nicked from Cheltenham's forum, (I'm even too lazy to type it out again so cutting and pasting). Because of the financial difficulties the club has had, and the resulting loss of the scouting network, MA has asked fans to email suggestions of potential signings, so there a few similar posts.

I'd hazard a guess that the reason that most of those players are being released is because they are  League one's equivalent(s) of David Bus.....

 

Although having said that there must be someone in the 100+ players that are listed there that could do a job for us?

Chances of AFC finding said player? Fuck all.

I don't know?

 

Luke Rodgers - a lot of unfulfilled early promise

 

Ryan Lowe - 16 goals in a relegated team

 

Paul Ifil - Decent right mid

 

John Oster - Worth a look

 

David Sousa - Likewise

 

Alton Thelwell - Not sure why Orient are releasing him

 

There's not a lot in there worthy of interest I suppose.

 

Does Jamie forrester not score a lot of goals? Not sure if he's any good, mind!

Is this the League One we can't compete with?

 

Fuck me, we're doomed.

Think so, I just assumed like the rest of the Notts County squad he'd be at least 40 at his next birthday.

Where do you guys find the time ?

 

I barely know the starting 11 of the top 6 SPL clubs names let alone whether they are good enough or not. I get my two daughters names mixed up for fuck sake.

On my watch, Ajja...

Baggy lives down south and follows Cheltenham    I imagine he gets to see a few folk playing

 

I have no idea who most of them are but good work btw, want to pass them onto Jimmy

A man after my own heart 

 

 

Hodgkiss to come back?

 

West Bromich Albion have told Carl Hoefkens, Pedro Pele and Jared Hodgkiss that their contracts will not be renewed when they expire this summer.

 

And on-loan pair Jay Simpson, 20, and Ryan Donk, 23, will be returning to Arsenal and AZ Alkmaar respectively.

 

Reserve striker Sherjill MacDonald is also set to leave, with Belgian side Germinal Beerschot keen to sign him.

 

Baggies chairman Jeremy Peace says he wants to reduce the number of senior players at the club from 30 to 21.

 

"Buying players is certainly a possibility but what has proved successful for us over the last few seasons is the strategy of loaning players with an option to buy them," he said.

 

"Players such as Ishmael Miller, Juan Carlos Menseguez and Youssouf Mulumbu fall in that category.

 

"This summer we want to bring people in who can further strengthen the team even though we have gone down a level."

 

Manager Tony Mowbray added: ""I would suggest working with 20 players is feasible. I've always said 20 players is fine as long as I like them all and they are my players.

 

"The emphasis can only be on quality. We have got some quality players. We haven't got 20 at the moment but we have to strive to reach that figure.

 

"If you get 20 really good footballers that you like, there should be no problem. I think the nucleus of this squad can play in the Premier League."

I liked him. But I reckon Vidal is the man in possession.

Agree on both points.

 

Wonder if Kerr will be added to the list in the original post. 

Hodgkiss clearly knew how to play the game, but I worried about his height especially with diagnol balls to his post.

Put the beer down man. 

 

He was such a short arse, it certainly was a worry. But he had pace, could tackle and could pass.

If only I'd started... 

I know he's been playing in the Prem but I wonder waht the score with Hoefkens is. Was highly rated a couple of season ago wasn't he?

I see Liam Miller has been released..... No? Oh, ok then.

I wouldn't mind seeing him at Pittodrie, but surely way out of our league?

I would be delighted to see him replace Jamie Smith

Imagine him and Kerr together

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The club owners in Aberdeen would be wetting themselves at the thought.

Released by QPR after three months, released by Sunderland for a shite attitude and not given much of a chance at United mainly because of a shite attitude too.  No doubting his talent, but I'm not sure we can afford another big time Charlie... no pun intended. 

Miller would definately put a bit of urgency into the midfield, not sure we could pay what he'd ask though.

Why can't we steal Kyle from Killie?? He'd get us 20 goals and do Miller's job too.

I'm sure if someone suggested Kyle before his spell at Killie they'd have been shot down, no? Hence why Killie took him on and not a better team.

 

To be fair, he's probably stopped them from being relegated though.

 

Kevin Kyle - 20 goals per season. Not even funny.

Surely you're having a laugh? He's a pile o pish despite having kept Killie up this season. There's no chance he'd score 20 goals.
