Tilly eyeing championship midfielder

[Holy Joe]

The hotbed of football gossip "The London Lite" reckoned we were going for the Portsmouth midfielder Jean Francois-Christophe on loan - Echo mention him but doesn't say if we are interested.

aah a loan signing wouldnt it be lovely if we actually signed some players of our own sometime soon

Chris Burchall at Coventry?

I would sincerely hope not - decent player that he is, he is predominantly a wide player, right wing is his preferred position.

Of course, if we signed him in addition to a creative midfielder, then that's all good!!

Agree, we could be buggered come January when they all go back to their clubs.

I was thinking Bichall this morning strangely enough. Would be a good signing.

We had him on trial last week, not heard any mention really to indicate what they thought.

Carl Fletcher anyone?!?

Jean-Francois Christophe (born 27 June 1987 in Creil, France) is a French football player that Portsmouth football club bought from French club RC Lens in the summer transfer window of 2007.[1].
He has operated in midfield and defence for Bournemouth[2] and Portsmouth reserves, with his best position as a defensive midfielder. He had recently been loaned out to League 1 side, Yeovil FC.
"He is a big lad, about 6ft 2ins, and looks to play more of a holding role," the Glovers' assistant manager Steve Thompson told the Western Daily Press.
"Having a big midfielder is good for defending set pieces and attacking set pieces," he added.

Didn't hurt too much using this same policy last season.

No chance. Did anyone really expect Ron to release funds to actually buy someone, well i didnt. Think this is a hang on season,and do the best we can,with a limited amount of money, lets hope it works.
