You've literally just said on another thread that we should sign James Collins because he would guarantee us more goals than he has ever scored at this level.

I’m sure we will be or already have been,it comes down to money and what other offers he’s got on the table compared to what we can offer

To be fair though, again, has anyone with any knowledge at all even suggested this might happen? Like as far as I’ve read not even so much as a “my mate down the pub told me....”?

Wasn‘t Hamer constantly linked on here a couple of months before we signed him?

I'd be surprised if we didn't at least have a conversation. I'm not sure it's a huge position of need though.

He could potentially be worth a lot of money to the club if he stays injury free and finds his feet at this level

Agreed. I'd be all over it personally, I just wonder if they'll want to address other options first. Also, if bringing James & Sheaf in may not want another in that position.

First tweet about Hamer to Coventry was June 3rd. Signed on July 3rd.

I like James but if it was a choice between him and Walsh I would much sooner go for the latter. He was tremendous in our promotion season, probably the player who contributed most to us going up and I would be amazed if someone of his talent couldn't compete in this league, even after a year out.

In all seriousness this would give a lot of options. Plenty of rotation. Could play a 3. Walsh and Hamer both capable of pushing up alongside O'Hare.

Financially unviable and appalling for morale in the dressing room, but hey ho. What would you think if you weere Eccles?

Eccles is still a development player anyway. The only way I'd worry about Eccles if I was bringing Walsh in is if I thought Eccles was a better player than Walsh. He's not.

Anyway, let's say we sell Shipley and bring Walsh in. We've not increased the number of players in that position. Was it bad for morale this year? Too many players?

End of the month accounts are due. We can't sign anyone before that anyway as windows not open. Doesn't matter unless we miss the end of May deadline.

Just a hunch but I would imagine a game of poker is currently being played behind the scenes. Walsh like COH enjoyed his time here winning the league. COH was on a free and we took him, Walsh wasn't. I am confident he was spoken to in detail about future opportunities. I think Osti and James the same.

Of course Walsh can't sell himself short and take over 25% less than elsewhere. However, I suspect he would like to return to the faces and fornation he gelled with with. Money talks and his agent will have options lined up for him to consider so fingers crossed as he would be a very good addition.

If commited to sign Sheaf and then getting James then I can't see Walsh as well ,seems to overload a good midfield already unless hamer moves,and think the defence and striking options along with a keeper to replace is a fair chunk of budget which at the level we are at will include a couple of loans at very least.

Walsh is far superior to sheaf,I don’t think many will disagree...one of the main reasons For league 1’s success was down to Walsh a team that even this seasons stand out player O’Hare struggled to get into.

Everyone saying we can’t fit Walsh in are forgetting he would arguably be our best midfielder and we are looking to improve the quality of the first team. So that means Kelly potentially not starting most games. If Shipley and Allen move on then plenty of room.

WE NEED WALSH!

James Hamer Walsh O’hare - Wow!

You seem to have a crush on Gnanduillet its about the fifth post youve put up about him this week. Are you his agent ?
