Well there as you all know there is a game this weekend

Torquay vs Morecambe

What do you think the outcome will be?
i think this one can be easily won considering the current form the team is in :ball1:

If it's "easily won" I'll be a happy chappy.

Very tough fixture, Charnock will be up for it no doubt..

Draw.

Talking of charnock- has he signed perminately yet. If not will he be eligible ?

If Charnock can play then it's very stupid on our part. Why not make it a permanent deal on Monday morning? I'm sure Morecambe wouldn't have called the deal off for the sake of a week.

Its already been made permanent hasn't it? Was on the OS a few days ago

Did we not look at a fixture list before finalising the deal? Obviously we don't know the details, but from the outside it looks a bit silly to make it permanent just a week before we play Morecambe, when if we'd left it as a loan he wouldn't be allowed to play.

All very true, but remember Morecambe could have been just as canny in saying "either we buy him now or not at all", knowing that we wanted to sell and wanted the cash, but would have been unavailable if he was still on loan.

To be honest, I'm not that bothered if we are facing Charnock. He was a decent enough player, but not good enough ultimately to displace Branno or Ellis. I'm still comfortably that man for man, charnock or no charnock we are a stronger side than morecambe. The players just need to perform as we know they are capable of, otherwise they will become unstuck in what is definately a tricky game.
