Only on an Emergency loan!!!!

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

so if he is on that the max he can be here for is for 3 months so if he is a hit we are screwed come December,

Hope he can improve on last season's performances and goals and does actually play up front

I'm content about this - better than Chadwick and Feeney but not totally convinced by him (though I don't trust anyone under 5ft6 )

Him and Fireman Sam will be very good up top together, hopefully they both start tomorrow.

Scrabbling around before the deadline to get a player who was half decent compared to the crap we have, off a good mate (Eddie Howe) for 3 mths is indicative of the crap situation we have at HP. We are supposed to get excited?
BYE BYE FLETCHER.

To play tomorrow, he had to sign before 12 i think.

It will probably be extended so no need to get angry about it, im glad to have him back.

A front 3 of Baz Griffiths Macca looks pretty decent to be fair.

I'm okay about having him back, bearing in mind he scored 4 goals in 15 starts. I know I posted a negative view but it's just the whole situation that we have a manager with clearly very few contacts in his phone book apart from Edie Howe and the squad looks mismanaged. Of course I hope Alex knocks a few in and his stay is extended.

Oh i agree, Fletcher has no contacts and in my opinion is well out of his depth

Our left back, a 32 year old fireman from the part-time league of Wales, and Macdonald.

'Pretty decent'.

?

How can it be described as an emergency loan when he have so many strikers on the books? Don't get me wrong, I'm pleased as he's a very good player at this level and shone in a lacklustre side last season but how can it be an 'emergency' loan? That's usually done with goalkeepers when you don't have one able to play.

He's a much better left winger and Rhys has 180 goals in 181 appearances for Llanelli, 51 goals in 35 appearances for Port Talbot, with the right service he will score quite a few goals.

I think its a little unfair to judge Rhys before he kicks a ball in this league IMO

It's basically another way of saying short-term loan.

I like the idea of Baz as part of a forward 3. He's pacy, energetic, good passer and a good eye for a pass. Good off the ball too. At left-back, he's looked a bit patchy and almost as if he's fustrated as the standard of play around him is lower than what he's actually used to playing, thus looks iffy. I think further up the pitch he'd be able to show more of what ability he actually has.
