Everybody keeps on about Selim doing this and Selim doing that and Harry is missing without trace so he can't be doing anything at all, what about Warren Feeney? Is he working from the club and having an input into decisions like the signing of Camara or is he absent as well?
Isn't our Director of Football actually just doing his job as Director of Football...?
...after all, he got some half-decent talent in last season. Of course he should consult with all interested parties. I would suggest this amounted to a quick chat with the Manager along the lines of "we've got our eye on a young striker we think is worth giving a chance Harry, fancy giving it a go..?" followed by "Jeez Mate, lets stuck the little bugger on the barbie and see if he sizzles"
Some of the posts on here remind me why I gave up with the old forum. We sign a promising young lad from non league who seems well thought of, and people moan that we need more finished products, but no way are we going to buy a completely finished squad of proven FL talent. And as you say Selim is doing what he should be doing. Not ideal that Harry is in Australia completing a prior commitment but I hear there is a new fangled invention called the telephone and email that maybe we are experimenting with?!!
i have never liked the continental method of a manager / coach not choosing who he coaches and lets be fair of the 3 signings so far only Bulman is proven at this level i'm all in favour of getting younger lads in that might step up but if they want to generate ST sales 2 of these 3 signings are not going to help those figures are they
get the 1st team players in early and pick up the lads who wont be playing in the first team further down the line. lets be fair Camara wouldn't be joining us if another offer had come in for him so thats a prime example of a player we could have waited to sign
hardly slagging the lad off i hope he does well but lets be honest here its unlikely he will get many if any opportunities in the current squad let alone if we sign another forward or two

Why not??What do you know about him. Look at the lad that went from Worthing to FGR last season...a star in the making. Sometimes it's these low key signings that can make a season. Opinions and all!!

Yes I agree. Sometimes you need to take a gamble. Who knows, he may come in and score a few goals.

ok fair play that lad Saunders bought in Anderson? he was a great signing wasn't he? Arthur another waste of money the 2 Turkish lads the list goes on, but i suppose sooner or later one of these type of signings has got to pay off law of averages and all that
lets get the 1st XI sorted first and worry about the u23s at a later date that's all i am saying opinions and all

And miss out on any players of any potential??? Why can't we just work on signing players for both squads? Interesting signing for me and I look forward to seeing the lad play.

I said in a previous post/thread, that the u23 squad would take shape after the first team squad has been assembled. I'm simply stating that this signing COULD be a solid front side signing.We just don't know yet.None of us know anything about him.
I will say it again.The U23 squad is a work in progress.A gem or two signed along the way will be a bonus. Time will tell.

Of course that's why I said it is a gamble when you bring in lower league players whether young or old.
What about Lee Fowler, people on here said he was useless before he even played. Almost kept us up. Tubbs was a non league player wasn't he. What about Bugiel at Forest Green. Luer who went from B/Hill to Hull and has just signed a new deal.
Personally I didn't think Billy Clifford did a bad job, he was in Conf South when we signed him.

if he had any real potential we wouldn't be signing the lad would we? he would have plenty of better options sorry for being a realist

knowing Lee Fowler i know for a fact he wouldn't say he nearly kept us up Simon and that's a bit of a stretch isn't it although i'm sure he will have a giggle when i speak to him next
Clifford done ok an average player in an average team wouldn't get in many conference outfits but fair play
wasn't we linked to Luer and Gregory at Millwall - i wonder where they ended up? don't think it was Crawley as frankly they were too good
i'll tell you what Simon £10 says Camara doesn't score 15 goals this season for the 1st team so put up or shut up as the saying goes

By your logic we'll never sign anyone as they'll all have better offers. We might as well all give up now.
