What!!?? He was Notts County best player 2 seasons previous and had a 500k transfer on his head for anyone who wanted to sign him. County fans want him to stay!, and say that he has undoubted potential.

I would be over the moon with this signing, and would be a real coup for us,however I cannot see this one happening at all! He went on loan to Barnet and there fans were all saying he was the best centre half in the division.

I think we have more chance of Trotman.

On loan to Barnet doesn't shout out coup to me.

Looking at his past, Martin Allen really rated him. He and Alan Judge were the next big things at Meadow Lane, but then Allen left and Curle came in, and froze him out. As mentioned he made 20 odd appearances for Barnet and the general consensus was that he was too good for L2.

Krystian Pearce would be ok but I'm expecting a far more exciting signing based on the hype tee boo and matt have put on this subject.

I am assured Trotman is not happening......and hasn't been for a while now. He was an option but said no early on.

Not sure how 'exciting' people expect the signing to be? As I suggested earlier, if we were to sign a 39 year old with his best days far behind him, I'd be less than enthused. But anyone from the division above, who is highly thought of and has their best years ahead of them is about as much as we could ask for - and probably more than we're entitled to expect!

Chances are we'll actually get someone far less impressive even than this. But if he's of a good size, good age and decent ability, I don't care who he is or where he comes. Just so long as someone arrives in the next week or so!

Would be an excellent addition in my opinion, if it is Pearce (random guess on my part).

As others have stated he was considered one of the best prospects in the lower leagues a couple of years back and represented England at junior levels. He has had a few injuries which have stalled his career and a change of Manager who didn't seem to rate him quite so highly, but whichever way you look at it at 23 he still has bags of potential and could still play at a much higher level if we can get him fit, free from injury and confident .... playing for a Manager who rates him.

Can you sign an exciting centre half? is it even possible?

someone who can head it and kick it and in emergencies pass it will be suffice.

People wouldn't class Pearce as a coup? What is a coup for us Rooney?
