:lol:

I was simply stating that Meikle is a similar player to Billy with the same output of tricks and flicks and pace which always results in nothing but Lindon is a bit more diminutive a player.

I cannot recall having seen a worse player in his position and at our level within the past 5 years.

Reports are that Meikle may favour a move back to Nottinghamshire but it's not clear whether he has something lined up or not. Cox likes the old Stags boys so you never know. Just get the impression the way it's all happened signifies he has somewhere lined up at a more manageable lower level (no disrespect) , without a fee for the signing club to pay and a pay cut probable. Could be you guys, could not be. Great performance at Grimsby by the way.

Anyone down there heard any rumours about winger Lindon Meikle coming down to be re-united with Cox? He's just left York by mutual consent which is a bit odd as he has a year to run on his contract so is effectively unemployed. Rumours that he could be heading down there with no fee now payable? He's like a smaller Billy Bodin so i'd say it would be a duff signing for you but in the conference he could make a little bit of an impact against poorer defences. We'll have to wait and see.

Young player. Believe he was playing yesterday against Dartmouth, he was our number 4.

Are we Mansfield in disguise?

Would be very happy with that, be surprised if we could afford him though.

Is there any sign of another 'keeper yet? I take it Lavercombe has played all of both PSFs so far?

Is there any news on Kadell Daniel?

I had a gut feeling that he would return, especially once Charlton had released him and our takeover was completed.

I've just been informed that GILBERT has signed a new five-year contract.

I think if Hargreaves and hodges were here we'd have definitely looked at him as he played under Hodges at Truro! I'd imagine he's on more money at a top Norwegian club than what we could have offered anyway!

[quote="KeithMalone"]To the person who mentioned Kieffer Moore, from what I hear he is due to sign for Viking in Norway[/quote]

That seems a shame, if he is as potentially good as a couple of posters on here have said he is, then it could be a missed opportunity if we havent even had a proper look at him and he hasnt even really been mentioned as a possibility. We have already missed him once, there were a few people championing him a while before Yeovil came calling, looks like we will miss out again.

A young local lad who has played at a higher level, people have rated as a potentially very good player and we are going to just let him go off to Norway, although they are in the top Norweigian league and are one of the countries most successful clubs, unless it is a wages thing surely we could be a better option for him.

[quote="lucusmc"]I heard we went in for Matt Rhead ( the mansfield connection again) but he has chosen Lincoln on a two year deal.[/quote]

I don't doubt that he might have been a target if he was available now, but given that Rhead signed a two year deal with Lincoln on the 14th May and Paul Cox wasn't appointed here until over a month later on the 17th of June, then I can't see how he could have chosen Lincoln over a Paul Cox managed Torquay United,unless you are suggesting he was a target for Chris Hargreaves?
