[MK Shrimper]

Shows as usual I know nothing :smile:

Must be time to ship out some of the others, surely?

 

[blue79]

Surely it is time on the 25th to ask about where the money is coming from. Surely at least one of our better players will be sold as well as releasing three or four fringe plasyers. If not the Squad will be overcrowded as Tara complained of in september. since then four new signings and only Johnson shipped out.

 

[Stourport Shrimper]

This looks like a brilliant signing for us, and probably Bolton will be paying most of his wages (as they want him to get the match practice) and they'll be the possibility of an extension till the end of the season if it works out. I see this as a temporary replacement for Barry Corr who we have missed considerably as far as playing style options have been concerned.

Southend set to snap up loan striker

SOUTHEND United are set to sign Bolton Wanderers striker Jack Sampson on loan.

More...

 

[southendkid]

I imagine as it's a premier league striker Bolton will just want him to get some match experience so we won't be paying too much on him

 

[Big Alan]

How long is the loan for ???

 

[DTS]

Was told this by a certain someone two weeks ago. Well done that man.

...and Daniels, and Paterson.

While he looks a terrific prospect, I think Id rather have seen older & experienced players being brought in to help out of this god awful league.

He'll probably get a dozen goals now & make me look a right ****..:hilarious:

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

I assume Bolton will expect him to play whilst he's with us, so Saturday's line-up could be interesting...

Assume that means either Benyon or Dickinson will be dropped then, if it's Benyon it's a shame because he hasn't really had a chance to prove his worth yet

 

[Bluesmanager]

Haven't seen a pic, but I hope he don't get his hair cut soon!

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

Jon i've edited the thread title as he hasn't signed yet and it might be deemed as misleading

Can soon be edited again as required :winking:

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

I hope that he'll sort his acne out before he turns out for us!

Yeah seems a really strange one. I didn't go to the Port Vale game but I got the impression that neither did anything worthy of losing their place in the side. We've needed a replacement for Corr all season but I felt like we'd just started to go with another plan with Dicko and Benyon. Certainly gonna be interesting on Saturday.

That said has this even been confirmed yet?

 

[Smiffy]

Man Ure, City, Newcastle & Spurs we're after him a little while ago. And we have beat off quite a host of other clubs (Some in League 1) to land him on loan.

Very highly regarded amongst footballing circles.

Let's hope he shows his talent whilst here.

 

[Jam_Man]

Even if he signs I doubt he will walk into the 1st team, he is only 18.

Sub more like.

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

He has scored 2 in 11 appearances for Bolton reserves this season so i don't expect anything remotely Eastwood-esque from him

I'm sure there's plenty on here who will though :duh:

If you're good enough, you're old enough I suppose...
