Jonnyboy Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 Trialist i'd guess, club would have announced if he'd signed (they would have had to i think) Hopefully there's an option to take him on loan. agreed, from the sounds of it, id prefer him on loan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilchards Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 We are short of squad midfielders so I'm sure if he does alright tonight then a bid of 350k will snap him up. Can't see him being the one that AP is really after as I feel the big one is yet to arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 he might actually be pretty good...before you all write him off and everything don't think anyone is writing him off, just reserving judgment as he's had a few pretty rubbish years football-wise.

Smirking_Saint Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 He is on trial from a Champ club, he is never going to cost 1.2m, i hope. He used to be a decent player, i would ignore the Preston message board TBF and judge him on how he performs tonight, it seems (according to Wiki i know) that Milwall saw enough to try and get him in, and it seems he is on decent wages, perhaps the reason to 'offer him' to clubs ? If he is deemed good enough i am sure he will sign, at least on loan to check his pedigree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperMikey Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 Carters' an interesting option - wouldn't like to see us pay over the odds for him based on other fans views, but i'm willing to be proved wrong with, say, a first hat-trick from him ;)Ought to be a decent game either way.

S-Clarke Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 Some west brom views, gives a bit of a balanced view - ''I would think he would add some good experience for you. Hes a big lad with a decent range of passing. He scored one of the best goals ever to be scored up the Hawthorns (see link below). To be honest he wasn't the most impressive of young talents ive seen he didnt impress me here and he didn't impress me based on the coverage i caught of Preston last year. I think league one is his level to be honest hes got great potential to do well for you while your there mate.'' ''You will get a very mixed reaction to Carter on here. A bit like Marmite some love him, some hate him. I was one of those who rated Carter , a very decent player in the stripes and I think he will do very well in League 1. Thought he had some very good games for us, but then again some times he does go missing and had a quite a few average games'' ''Average championship player. Should do well for you. Decent work rate tidy passer and can get the odd spectacular goal.'' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SO16_Saint Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 who says he would be back up..? was fonte..? True, so if not back up he's better than what we have so what's the issue? Not with you, btw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, thats pretty much as i remember. I do like Hammond, he has tremendous work rate, but technically he ain't all that. But i suppose thats what you get at this level, i'm just not used to it.

Give it to Ron Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 Well if he can run from one end of the pitch to the other, pass a ball to a team mate, not give away sill free kicks around our area then he will be an improvement on Wotton. We will not get promoted if we are relying on the standard of players like Wotton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hutch Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 I'd forgotten about Trottman. They don't seem to rate him either. I thought he did OK for us, better than what we had at the time, but not a patch on Fonte. Maybe Carter's in the same boat, better than Wotton, but not as good as [..............] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liquidsnake Posted 27 July, 2010 Share Posted 27 July, 2010 Not a great game here, Holder-Spooner has been lively, whilst Dickson has looked a bit rusty. Barnard curled one over the bar but apart from that it's pretty much been Barnet putting on most of the pressure, and they've had a fair few corners (including one suspect punch from Kelvin, although he also pulled off a great tip over the bar from a header). Rain has now stopped, hopefully a better second half! Oh, and according to the PA the subs are: Harding, Bialkowski, Doble, Holmes, Mcnish, Tafazolli (sic), Reeves, Wotton, Hoskins, Robinson.
