Thought he was a birmingham? Who were CCC last season, still gotta be better than what we have. Anyone know how tall he is?

 

6' 3" and will be 34 on the 30th August, so 6" taller and 2 years younger than Chris Perry!

How can Charlton afford Dailly's wages, I thought they were skint?

 

I seem to remember Dailly's wages were relatively massive when he was on loan to us a couple of years ago.

 

 

Why do you suppose Dailly's wages a couple of years ago are relevant? A hint for you: when you're out of work, your wages are nil, zero, nada. Doesn't matter what you used to get paid; what matters it what people are willing to pay you now. Charlton can afford him, because he's not in a position to make wage "demands": since he's out of contract, he takes what he can get or just retires. Since he wants to keep playing, he takes what he can get, and evidently Charlton's was his best or only offer.

 

See how that works? You can apply the same principle to out of contract players saints might be interested in ...

Would be a good signing at this level, can't believe people are talking about him being clumsy with bambi lancashire at the back.

 

+1.

 

I wonder why do people continue to be so pessimistic too, you're completely right Smirking_Saint, he would be a great signing.

Definitely would be worth adding to the back four.

We have been crying out for a big physical presence in that back four season after season.

 

And he is a big bloody beefcake!

Posted

He could be a good signing if fit. We need someone that come in and start straight away. I would expect us to find another forward as well by the weekend but again will he be fit to step straight into our team?

Posted

Exactly what we need - he's been a colossus for the brum whenever we've played them - no doubt was a key reason why last year they had the stingiest defense in the championship.

He's a brick sh1thouse, as wide as he is tall. Would be a great signing. He stands in front of the opposition keepers for free kicks and blots out the sun.

 

I don't remember that, he never looked that big to me, just tall.

Didnt he score one against us last season.

 

I remember listening to Radio Sol, and they had him as the MOM

 

Not last season, though he did collide for a header with team mate Lee Carsley who as a result required a load of stitches in the head and bandaging up. I remember he got two goals against us in the 2006/7 season (including one in that epic 4-3 win for us at SMS). Don't know which feat is more impressive :)

Is that Chris Iwelumo in the photo - christ, he's a big motherf**ka! An excellent signing if it goes through.

 

At the same time, will we have enough pace at the back? Perry's intelligent positional play means he's usually able to make up a few yards - I guess the same applies with Murty at RB but still we might be a tad exposed....

I think there is a lot to be said about positioning and defending set pieces! Goods signing if it happens

Nick, any strikers on the radar?

 

I think the negativity on here has been ridiculous and think at the moment, from what I hear owner, board and manager have not put a foot wrong.

 

Problem with strikers is Saga and Rasiak both saying they want to go, but will stay if they don't get right offer - so what do you do?

Posted

This looks like a sensible move. In this league, and the one above, we will need big CBs to counteract the lumping CFs. They need to be fit and injury-free too. Shame we didn't realise this last year

Posted
Average age of our back line this year should be interesting :) Davis, Murty Thomas and Perry, (ok Harding's a bit younger.)

 

Well we tried the kindergarten route last year and look how far that got us!

With Raziak and Saganowski there are problems which may well see them staying.

 

Firstly we want a fee and secondly their high wages will stop them getting a CCC club unless they take a cut, thirdly we can afford them and presumably won't let them go on the cheap.

 

The fourth option could be a loan but again a fee would be required. Having said that a final option could be a player exchange but getting them to play in the third tier could be a problem.

 

If they stay we could benefit, because they have to perform to keep themselves in with any chance of a recall to the Polish squad and it is the world cup in June.

 

I think there is a decent chance they will both be here unless a club pays out silly money.

Exactly , at the moment everyone is banging on about gettinga striler in before the weekend but we have 2 overpaid ones who aren't interested here already - how long are their contracts for does anyone know?

Yes, but what they DON'T say is that if they do not get "the right offer", they WON'T give 100% to The Cause .....

 

Rasiak is lazy at the best of times ....... He'll be staic if he's just "turning out" for us because nobody wants to buy him

I will be a happy man if we get him just the sort of physical lump we have been missing when ever I have seen him play I have been impressed come AP make it happen if we can get a goal scoring big lump up front and someone else with a bit of pace we are on the right track UTS

Posted
He's a big mutha, no two ways about it. Exactly what we need, good at set-pieces at both ends of the pitch.

 

Thr right sort of CH (McGrath, Ruddock, Watson, Richards, Svensson) can frighten the average striker with an angry grimace ...and a tough shoulder !

 

SIGN HIM UP NOW, AP!

As long as he has replacements lined up, he can sell them now and get some spending money back ASAP. Their salaries alone would cover a few costs.

My best mate is a Brum season ticket holder and he says about Jardi last season: "overall he was awesome. Can play at championship level still although not if he has to run. He struggled a little in the middle of the season, but was immense in the run in. He would be great for you. He's a captainesc figure and of course he's massive".

 

If its a choice between a slow 5 feet nothing Perry and a slow 6 feet 3 Jardi there is no choice.

I'd be very, very happy with this. Big, strong centre back, with vast experience. Should be able to stand up to pressure and not wilt at set pieces. A bit of a coup for this level. Good work AP, if this comes off

Sounds good, cheers!

Oops sorry, jet lag, thought this was a thread about pre-match entertainment, Bolton would have been a big improvement on Osman, for about 5 minutes.

 

Jaidi - big lump CB, bring him on

Posted

If its a choice between a young and quick Lancashire or a slow massive Jaidi there is no choice either ;-) sign him now!

Sounds like it's progressing well!!

 

AP looks like he wants to fill the team with vocal experienced leaders - we'll be fine if he does this. (Murty and Jhadi is an awesome start)
