Would that mean we can get an emergency loan?

With Willis sounding a bit dodgy yesterday, it leaves us with Turnbull and Harries.

If one of those then gets injured...

Hahaha. We should sign a whole backup squad in case any other players have to retire.

No, backup players in case people get injured / suspended.

If Turnbull gets sent off, we could have Finch and Harries at centre half.

I thought that emergency loans outside the window could only be goalkeepers.

Another player using the club as part of his wind down from football, don't want to sound unnecessarily harsh but didn't impress me last year lost nearly every game that he played in this season, too old and slow as sad that it may be for him personally just want the best for the club and he wasn't it by the time he joined us.

Is Stokes training now?
Will be a class left sided CB once fully fit

Only just on the "grass" it said recently. I'd say a month away at least, then there is match fitness.

Four CBs wasn't enough anyway, especially when one was Sam Ricketts and another is a youth player. Now it's three and only one of them is right sided.

A player who is not a chav? You know them all personally then even though you barely go to games. Aaron Martin is better than turnbull, he offers more experience than harries and isn't an OAP like ricketts. Oh and he's right footed

i hardly go to games? i have been to an average of 15 every season since we moved to ricoh. please dont chat shit because your martin love has now been shown up. or maybe you are just jealous i can afford to go on holidays? if so reassess your life.

and if you listen to the interviews you will know what i mean about chav. sam is articulate and its nice to hear sometimes instead of normal youth slang.

You've barely been this season have you? I don't love Aaron Martin I said he's decent, your love for Mowbray has been shown up but you can't admit it can you. I couldn't give a fuck how the players talk it's what they do on the pitch that counts.

Ricketts still has a contract till end of season.

Even though he has retired I suppose the club still has to pay him, though there might be an insurance payout to cover the costs.

I'd imagine they'd be an insurance payout there rather than us paying the remainder of his contract. Fair play to him though, could have easily spent the rest of the season injured and continued to take a wage from us.
